 Did you ever BOIL EGGS in the coffeepot......seriously? July 23, 2008

Yes, I did it! Without the gas stove one day, I put 3 eggs in the water for over an hour and half, and whoooola! The eggs boiled in the hot water. I just plugged and unplugged a few times for fresh heat.
It is rare that I see people using these Farberware coffeemakers, and for some reason they are stuck with those dreadful Mr. Coffee-type-things. This is a percolator, meaning it brews coffee OR, simply use it as a drip coffee maker. Either way, it works great! And it just takes minutes.
But I love these coffeepots, mainly because the coffee comes out nice and hot! That's right the coffee is hot, and it stays hot. You don't have to worry about warm coffee here. You can leave it plugged and it will maintain the heat for long time. Unfortunately there isn't a light indicator that states the pot is still plugged.
The innards!
The pot comes with the innards, the stem, and coffee holder and the lid over the coffee holder. I use a standard filter, poke a hole with the stem and within minutes, the aroma of good hot coffee.
I have had a few and will always use a Farberware coffeepot!....Rizzo
 Farberware electric percolator July 6, 2008
Helena Moran
This product has definitely lost its quality. We had a Farberware percolator that lasted 15 years. It finally quit and we bought a new one expecting the same quality. The new one lasted less than 18 months. Customer service department was not helpful. It makes great coffee. But considering its cost and short life span, it's not worth it. I will not buy a Farberware electric percolator again.
HOT COFFEE July 1, 2008

Hello,
wand a delicious, STEAMING cup of coffee? Buy this
Farberware percolator, and you'll think you're at the local
coffee cafe. Excellent, I looked very long because I do not
like the current offering of coffee makers. This electric
perk takes care of coffee for my family of 3.
Great while it lasts! June 15, 2008

We purchased our most recent Farberware percolator to replace one that no longer perked long enough (it lasted 4 years). We have used this same model coffee maker for probably 30 years (since Corning quit making their porcelain model). We have owned @ 8 through the years. and since first trying Farberware, have not used any other brand. However, with each new percolator, we have found that their life gets shorter. This latest machine quit this morning, after less than year of service. They make a great cup of rich coffee while they last but they are no longer the reliable appliance they once were. We're going to try a Cuisinart and hope for the same great flavor of perked coffee plus greater reliability.
Love my Farberware April 21, 2008

I've owned my Farberware Perc for over 25 years. I have a second one I got an excellent deal on as a back-up. Yes they've both been repaired but they're still going strong.
For the thermostat problem I'd suggest going to a suggested repair place that is in the folder with the pot and have the repairman show you how simple it is to do your own replacing. Then stock up on the parts needed. There seemed to be a streak/batches of bad thermostats that just didn't last long. The currant one has been in use for at least 5 years. There's another part in it that can go bad too, but I'm drawing a blank right now on what it's called.
I love the ease of "perking" a pot of water with half a scoop of Oxyclean in it. Cleans up the pot in a flash and soooooo easy! Ours is in use constantly so fast and easy is the game when it's time to clean the pot. The clean pot makes the best tasting coffee. It gets pretty sad tasting when the pot is dirty.
I have to edit the cleaning part. I just got "new and improved Oxyclean" and it's got a much larger scoop in it. So I have to suggest using 2 teaspoons or a tablespoon of Oxyclean to a pot of water. Still works just as well as I just cleaned my pot.
