Amazon Basics Coffee Makers, 12-Cup Coffee Machines with Reusable Filter, Coffee Pots, Black & Stainless Steel

This little guy is a great product to have, When I first put my hand in the carafe to clean, it had a piece of sharp plastic where the handle meets the lid, but I sanded it down with an emery board, did the job perfectly. The coffee pot is easy to clean, meets my daily 2 cup limit, and more if you want. I like the simplicity of it and the fact that the coffee warmer keeps it hot while you cook your meal. I highly recommend this small but powerful coffee pot. Be nice to it, the glass carafe is delicate.

Easy and fast. My wife drinks "real" coffee and I drink "de-caf," so each morning I make a quick pot of each.This machine is fast, easy to use, and easy keep clean.She is very fussy about her coffee strength, brand, taste, and quality.It make four mugs per brew and even if we though we frequently discard a couple of cups per brew, the machine is more economical than one of those single cup makers.As the old saying goes: "Mama is happy, so everyone is happy!"

Good small coffee maker that seems to work well. Like the built in removable grounds filter. No frills but the price is right and it makes a good cup of coffee. Wish the on/off switch was in the front and not the right side as it is inconvenient for my left handed wife.

This is so far a much better 5 cup coffee maker than the Krups one I had previously purchased. When you open the cover to fill with water and coffee, it stays firmly up. It is much easier to fill with water than the Krups. The permanent coffee filter seems to be made of a much better quality. The Krups is rather flimsy and within a short period of time it appeared to be pulling apart. Lastly, this carafe is made of Duralite and feels to be more sturdy and the lid stays up when you are filling with water. The Krups carafe spout chipped and due to that defect the coffee would spill on the counter. The carafe was not dropped or banged in any way. And, it was not even used every day.

Totally easy to use. It has a basket, so no need to constantly use filters. The coffee tastes good. To fill, you pour straight into a tank, as fast as you like, with no grill to pour through. My only real complaint is that it keeps getting empty.

I received this pot washed it and started using it the next day.Just the right size for one, or possibly two.It’s a 5 cup maker.Keeps the coffee warm for as long as you like.Ease of use, brew time, functionality and durability.

It makes coffee.1) the power switch is on the side and requires a force to toggle the switch that is exceeds the force needed to move the fully loaded coffee maker across the counter. The switch should be mounted so the force applied is downward thus the coffee maker wouldn't move.2) The handle of the pot is hollow, which gives it strength for the material used. It also collects water if mounted upside down in the dishwasher. I a short time you will be trained to turn it right side up so the water stays in the dishwasher.3) the impatient plug (so you can pour coffee before the brew is finished) is too stiff or the inner assembly doesn't always seat properly, and sometimes doesn't open when the pot is in place. This results in the coffee flowing back into the water reservoir of the coffee maker and not the pot.4) heat pad keeps coffee at the brew temperature and doesn't lower, resulting in toasted coffee if you don't switch off when it finishes brewing. I was spoiled by my old coffee maker which had a lower temperature.Not a bad buy. We all have our faults.

I am a morning coffee drinker, and this coffee pot meets all my needs. Simple to operate, with no bells or whistles. Put coffee in the basket, water in the tank, turn on the switch, coffee drips into carafe. Coffee stays hot during my 2 or 3 cups. Must remember to turn switch off, and the lack of an automatic cut off reduces my rating to 4 stars. But, overall it is a good, simple 4 stars coffee pot, and the price was right.
