    3 out of 5 stars Not as good as I hoped   September 5, 2008

    I was excited about purchasing this coffee maker but I agree with some of the other reviewers. The bubbles on the left inaccurately tell how much water is in the base. Now the off/on button is stuck and it doesn't turn on! That's a real bummer when you're ready for your coffee.


    4 out of 5 stars Good product, manual is unclear in several places   August 26, 2008

    Very pleased with the coffeemaker; however, I had a difficult time setting the clock. The manual wording seemed out of order. I was never able to get the clock to stablize to show the time. It would show it, but it would continue flashing the 8888 screen, apparently expecting me to enter a time to begin the coffee. I only wanted the clock to be viewed and not programmed. Anyway, it works very well and I guess I will go back to easier jobs like setting up computer networks!


    5 out of 5 stars as good, the second time around   August 5, 2008

    This is our second Krups FME4-14. I broke the first one...oops! and we can't fault them. I kocked the carafe off of the counter while vaccuuming, and unfortunately it broke, so when I asked my wife what she wanted to replace it, she said another the same. The store we bought it from no longer had them in stock, so I came to Amazon. Should have done that first, it was cheaper than I saw anywhere else on the internet, and it arrived well before it was expected. Thank you


    5 out of 5 stars excellent product   July 26, 2008

    I have owned many coffee pots over my 55 years of life but this one is the best. It is fast and easy to use. The company I bought it from is also tops in my book for being quick and efficient in sending my pot to me.


    1 out of 5 stars This Coffee Maker was a DISASTER!! - Use Caution!!   July 6, 2008
    The Legal Beagle (ChocolateTown - USA)
    We had high hopes that a name brand like Krups would be a good product for us to purchase. We had a 12 cup Braun coffee maker for several years, and it still worked, but the temperature of the coffee was declining, and we decided to buy a new machine. We would have bought another Braun, but they discontinued the model we liked. So we decided to try the Krups (Model #FME-14). That was a BIG MISTAKE!!

    Although we followed the directions to the letter, from the very first plain batch of water we processed through the machine, we smelled this distict "chemical smell." Once we brewed coffee in the Krups machine the chemical smell continued and even was present in the coffee itself. We kept trying the unit for about a week, but it never improved. So we exercised our return option with Amazon.com, and they readily cooperated to have the Krups machine returned for full credit

    I must say that the RMA process with Amazon.com was OUTSTANDING. They even picked up the tab for the return shipping (USPS). We then bought a Cusinart (Model #DCC-1200BW12) cup coffee maker, and we have had it for several days - the Cusinart machine is wonderful, and we wish we had purchased it from the beginning. Hope that helps others looking for a new coffee maker. However, whatever you do, buy the machine through Amazon.com, their service could not be better!
