Spare yourself some aggravation.

 

I had formerly owned a stylish-looking Cuisinart, which was awkward to fill, dripped, and died minutes after the warranty expired. At first I was happy with this Krups coffee maker. The reservoir was easy to fill, the filter holder and carafe were easy...

Easy to fill reservoir, quick brewing, auto-off, good-tasting coffee

Setting clock/programming: not easy. Disengaging the "empty reservoir" alarm status: impossible

Makes good coffee ; swing out basket easy to use

Water level indicator ; poor carafe design ; programmable timer

The manufacture and design of automatic, programmable drip coffemakers is hardly rocket science, but considering some of the recent blunders by a few companies, one might think the opposite to be the case. Almost to the day, I wrote a review two years ...
