 Great Coffee Maker -but it breaks after a year January 22, 2008
Working Mom (New York, NY)
This is my all-time favorite coffee maker. It brews fantastic coffee within five minutes, and it's very easy to clean. And since it doesn't use coffee filters, it saves a bit of money in the long run...sort of.
This leads to the two reasons I didn't give this percolator five-stars. The first is that the clear top is plastic. Elementary physics/chemistry dictates an almost inevitable outcome when plastic is subjected to a hot liquid over a period of time. So after about a year the clear top of my percolator became brittle, broke off, rendering the whole thing unusable. So here I am ordering another one.
Second, it doesn't have an automatic shut off, so you'll need to make sure you unplug it every time you use it. I got into the habit of unplugging the percolator as soon as my coffee finished brewing - so I wouldn't have to remember to unplug it later.
That withstanding, I really do recommend this coffee maker. Just remember to unplug it, and expect a year or so of use.
 Mount Vesuvious September 27, 2007
Peter F. Smith (Middle Haddam, CT United States)
Put on the coffee, went out for a newspaper and came back to find the pot had cracked the cheap plastic top and was spewing coffee to the ceiling like Mt. Vesuvious. The top is now jammed into the lid and held in place with duct tape. Went to Macy's, Target and Ace. No replacement tops. Designer of pot should have to stand naked under it with legs spread. Why not a glass top?

I loveD this coffee maker. deliberate "D"
Problem is it has begun acting up after only 1.5 years-ish. And now I am sad. As the othre rater wrote best coffee maker ever - I agreed.. but now. It has stopped working correctly. How sad.

I bought my percolator a few months ago and have enjoyed it very much.
I read the other reviews which helped tremendously with the do's and don'ts of this item.
This will help:
1) Never lift the lid off by the glass knob. Wait until the pot is cool, then pull by the top rim with dry hands.
2) Wet the inner basket before adding ground coffee and don't grind coffee beans too finely. This will prevent grounds in your cup.
3) Treat it gently and it will give you the best coffee you have ever tasted every time.
Great machine. Poor after-sales service April 24, 2007

This is the best coffee maker ever. I have spent 40 years brewing coffee every morning, using a whole variety of machines. This is the easiest and makes fantastic coffee with very little effort. If you buy a cheap wall-outlet type timer, you can also set this to brew coffee before you get out of bed. Great! (That goes for most brewers/percolators, - obviously).
However.. if the transparent plastic knob breaks, then you are sc**wed, because eSalton (Melitta) has no means to contact them. Their toll free number is useless: it gives you three options, the third is for spare parts, but when you choose 3 you return to the three choices again! (Pressing 0 will disconnect you). So.. great machine but no parts service, so I guess that if your lid is slightly damaged, then buy another $60 percolator!!!
