Reader Reviews This item will indeed brew coffee, but not without some shortcomings. First, the mechanism that allows you to remove and pour a cup while it is brewing doesn't work very well. You have to use one hand to hold the unit in place while you forcibly shove the coffee pot into place; usually resulting in some spilt coffee all over the inside of the unit. Second, for some reason, the spout that empties hot water over the grounds inside is mounted on a swivel that you have to move in and out of the way every time you use it. Only a mild nusience, really , but nevertheless, annoying. I suppose the moron who designed it would have you believe it brews a better cup that way, but that is obviously nonsense. Also, The opening to pour the water into is very small--your aim better be good. If this is on an average counter top, you're going to have to lift the water up quite high and hope you can hit the opening without spilling. Lastly, the steam that comes off while it is brewing condenses on the front faceplate, where the switches and circuitry is and I can't help but believe over time, the moisture will penetrate inside and probably short out the wiring-probably just after the warrantly runs out. To sum up: Overpriced! Poor value! Idiotic design. [...] |
