A coffee maker should do the following:
1. Make coffee into a pot (not on the counter)
2. Make hot coffee (listen up mr coffee!)
3. Actually pour coffee out of the carafe! (again something mt coffee hasn't figured out)
4. Actually brew the entire filters worth of grinds and not just part of the grinds
5. Not cost an Arm and a leg....
AWESOME COFFEE!!!, This is a sturdy coffee machine. Sleek looks, simple use, great coffee, easy to clean up. Coffee still pretty warm after 4 hrs. Really easy to use and clean carafe. Brews quickly enough, and produces piping hot coffee. Brew strength is a nice way to use less coffee and extract more flavor... more noticeable with fine grounds. Bonus, you can make iced coffee with this one! Fill the carafe with ice, double coffee grounds, and brew (directions are in the manual). YUM! Very bright blue LED for those who care, no bother to me. I read about all the others available Dec 2011, and this seemed the best bang for the buck! I recommend a burr grinder for excellent flavor! No burnt coffee taste at all.
Good Looking BUT Poor Operational Design, (What's this?) After much research I decided to purchase this machine. It's being returned.
Pros: Looks good. Auto cut-off. That's all in my opinion.
Cons: Adding water is tricky without spilling due to the wide "bridge" at the top center of the tank leaving a small opening on each side. Water level indicator is on side instead of the front. Not as good a cup as my old Krups still makes. Does not keep coffee hot (maybe if a full pot is made, but I normally make a half pot). Burner cuts off right after brewing. The clock is very bright.
This is the benchmark model for all thermal coffee makers, (
Quiet coffeemaker excellent coffee, (What's this?) Like many it seemed I devoted every spare moment for 2 weeks trying to find the BEST replacement coffee maker, and everything was either hundreds of dollars or got mixed reviiews so it was hard to take the plunge. We have had this Melitta for a week and I love it! I find the coffee is tasty. I love the design of the thermal carafe, it does not drip. It has pause and serve and can be programmed to auto start. AND it is quiet. NO beep! It does not beep, a feature I always found annoying. Plus it brews very quietly as well. It is very easy to pour in the water.
Finally!, (What's this?)
Very good coffee maker with a thermal carafe, I bought this from Abe"s of maine. I usually don't write reviews but I did a lot of research and have waited a long time to buy another coffee maker since my Philips Thermal was getting a bit old.
I have tried a number of thermal units in the past and could not find one that produced hot coffee from the start, never mind after awhile from the carafe. The Philips was good, not perfect, where after my second cup I had to hit the microwave. So I came across the Melitta older version and wanted to buy it but could not find one at an reasonable price so I called Melitta. They said it was discontinued but they have a new model 46894. Now the picture is wrong here, it shows a glass carafe, the same on Abe's website but the model number was correct so I ordered it and got the thermal carafe.
So far I really like it. I ran water thru it and it is 5 degrees hotter than my Philips and it has a hot plate which gets good and hot during the brew time and then goes off when it stops brewing. It has 3 Brew settings which must be different temperatures which makes the water pass thru at different speeds. I have tried all 3 and I can't see there is a big difference, but I think you need to be exact in measuring and using the same coffee and amount of water. I have 3 coffees open in decanters which I switch everyday for variety.
Easy to fill without spilling water, easy to clean and the carafe is a one handed operation to pour..
So all I can say is go for it!.. Can't beat the price and quality for a good cup of coffee.
Melita not for me, I am not satisfied with this product. It does not keep the coffee hot and it is difficult to pour. The coffee brewing process is okay but no better then my old Mr. Coffee. Would not buy it again.
