I have been using Faberware Percolators for several years and this is the worst one I have ever gotten. I think it was used, and passed off as new and I am very unhappy with it.

I have owned several Farberware stainless steel percolators. They are beautiful and make delicious coffee but the thermostat wears out in as little as 8 months. The longest I have had one last is 16 months. I just can't afford them any more. The one exception is a little four cupper that I bought at an estate sale used. I suspect that it is one of the old ones that was truly a Farberware. The Farberware name was purchased by Salton years ago. What burns me the most is that you can't buy replacement thermostats. I suspect that this is by design.



I have a Presto pot which is equally good looking and makes equally good coffee. It came with a two year warranty and is still going strong after 10 years. The only drawback is that the last half-cup has dregs but we hav learned to be careful when the pot nears empty.

Apparently, from reading the reviews, the Farberwares aren't made like they used to be. I have a bunch of the originals and the only problem they ever had was a loose handle. They do make reliable excellent coffee. So keep your eyes open for an old one.

Great coffee maker. Better than the last 4 Bunns I've owned (3 recalled). And it is a percolator. The old fashion stove top percolator is a rare find, so I tried this one and am sooo happy.

I don't know why people switched to the drip style coffee makers, etc. Percolated coffee tastes so much better, and stays hot. I recommend buying some paper wrap-style filters (Melitta makes them). They are more expensive but work better than the disc style. I have zero grounds or sediment. This is a very simple process. Love this coffeepot. You can use any type of grind you want with the wrap filter. Medium to coarse is best.
