Good Coffee Maker - But Needs Some Changes May 13, 2007 Stephen R. Thomas (Southern California, USA) I've been looking for a great coffee maker for a long time. The biggest problem I've had is finding a maker that will tolerate the quantity of coffee that I use - I like very strong coffee. Most pots don't accept that much coffee, or consistently overflow the basket. This maker makes great very strong coffee, and in quantities that are useful. it is fast to brew and the basket holds a ton of coffee grounds. The caraffe is large, but I don't understand why it so big. When full, there is still a lot of room in the top of the pot. Also, the biggest complaint is that it always dribbles when you pour. I have not been able to pour that first cup without dribbling all over the counter. I like the automatic features, including the audible full indicator, the fill indicater on the panel, and the speed of brewing. And, the extra craffe and warming plate are useful for parties. So far, the reconditioned unit works like new.
OK for large pots, but.... March 15, 2007 L. Freed (Sarasota, FL USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
.... this is a great coffee maker if you make 8 or more cups at a time. When this machine arrived from Amazon, I had a house full of company, so we used to to make full pots. After the house guests left, I went back to my morning ritual of making 4-5 cups at a time, and discovered that this machine just can't make a decent short pot of coffee. I also discovered that it is a tiny bit taller than the specs say, so it may not fit under your kitchen cabinets! Other than that, it is built like a tank and nicely finished. If you normally make smaller pots, look elsewhere.
Problem with the reconditioned February 4, 2007 Jay Cleary (Pasadena, California) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought one of these from Williams-Sonoma and love it. So when I bought a second house and saw it practically half-price here, I bought the reconditioned one. It brewed just fine for about a week, then it stopped. Amazon is replacing it. I hope it doesn't have the same problem because when it works, it makes great coffee.
Best Coffee Maker I've owned January 14, 2007 Jason M. Page I wanted to write this review after seeing the previous complaint that the on/off switch on this coffee maker sticks. I purchased one of these new from Williams and Sonoma months ago and have made hundreds of batches of coffee with it and have had absolutely no problems with any of the controls sticking or any other troubles. This coffee maker produces superb coffee because it has a 1350 watt heat pump similar to what is in a commercial machine. The water is extremely hot and this produces excellent coffee. I have no complaints, a few people have commented it should have a pause and serve feature, but I can see why they didn't include it on such a high end unit as it would have affected the brew time, etc, and they are trying to produce the best pot of coffee possible. All in all, I highly recommend this unit.
problemic coffee maker January 9, 2007 Tara Bradley (CA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This coffee maker is beautiful, however, it has a problem. The on off switch sticks a lot. Kitchen Aid replaced the entire system for me a few times and finally I gave up and bought a cheaper more reliable coffee maker. All the replacements they sent to me developed the same problem.
