After about 11 months, the top would not tighten correctly. This resulted in having to turn the cap several turns to open it partially so the coffee would pour. Pushing the button with the cap in normal closed position became useless as the coffee would not pour at all. The previous carafe (another brand) lasted many years and only broke when it was dropped. This one was a waste of money.

It nice to bring this to the table instead of bringing a coffee pot. It keeps coffee hot for hours.. Preheating with hot water works best. Easy to clean - doesn't stain inside (although the gasket on the lid will stain without regular cleaning) and best of all doesn't leak. I've had it over a year and works great. Use care when cleaning and storing as it will show scratches (mine has a few) on the outside

This is a fine product. I've used two of them. They keep the coffee warm, and it looks great.

This product did hold in the heat, as we used according to the directions. It looks a little "plasticky", but not too bad. For not so formal gatherings, it's a great product!

Our Carafe arrived well packaged and in perfect condition. We find that preheating the carafe before adding coffee each morning keeps the coffee HOT for at least 4 - 5 hours. I wouldn't say it is an 8 hour carafe but works well for my husband and I who work from home and like a couple of cups of Fresh tasting coffee in the morning.
