Product Description
Before there were drip coffeemakers, coffee was brewed in a percolator. Which is better? That's a matter of taste preference. Percolator supporters believe that the percolation process delivers more pure taste. They believe that some of the natural oils and flavonoids of the beans are lost when filtered in a drip coffeemaker. This product is for those who favor the percolator. 1000 watts 110-120 Volts AC (includes power cord)

 Dangerous, and leaves grounds August 30, 2008
California Dreamer (Edmonds, WA)
We bought this coffee maker based on the reviews, after our old electric coffee maker died following many years of problem-free use. We liked the appearance and size of the Farberware and decided to give it a try (got a really good deal at a major department store because of a coupon). Unfortunately, this coffee maker has several major problems. First, after you've made your coffee, when you remove the lid (which snaps on VERY tightly), the "spreader" (small basket) that fits over the larger basket in which your coffee rests flies out of the machine. We tried removing the lid a couple of different ways, but it made no difference. This is dangerous, because there's very hot water on the spreader--plus, it makes a mess. Second, there were coffee grounds in the bottom of our pot after each brewing. Not a huge deal, but still a nuisance. Finally, cleaning the pot is a bit of a pain--you have to be sure not to get the plug area wet, so, since the pot is attached, you have to wash very carefully. After a couple of tries with this coffee pot we returned it. Definitely not recommended--a hazard and a pain.

Lenora L. Jensen (Iowa USA)
I have had and used regularly one of these little Farberware percolator gems for many, many, many years, and I was horrified when it ceased to function properly, even though it had served its time and usefulness well beyond its expected life cycle. Much to my amazement, I found the exact model, ordered it, received it, put it to use, and love it. My life is complete once again. What JOY!
Don't burn gas. Log onto Amazon July 30, 2008

After driving my mother all over town looking for this coffee pot, I convinced her to let me try Amazon. Quick delivery. Exactly what she wanted. She loves it. Forget driving. Check Amazon first. Free shipping was fast, too.
Great litle pot! July 27, 2008
Andrew Leach (Colorado)
I've been using this pot everyday for three weeks and it has performed flawlessly. A full pot makes 24 ounces of hot coffee. Which is enough for two "normal size "cups in the morning. I'm also using less coffe than I do whith my drip machine. That may well translate into $$$ saved over the course of the year.
This item is highly recommended.
