Amazon.com Product Description

With its sleek contemporary styling and stainless-steel accents, this 14-cup coffeemaker not only looks good on the kitchen counter, but it also makes it easy to brew a rich, flavorful pot of coffee. The unit's electronic control regulates the powerful 1100-watt heat pump, while its extra-wide JavaSpa showerhead soaks the filter basket evenly with hot water to ensure uniform extraction and enhanced flavor. Thoughtfully designed, the appliance also provides a user-friendly control panel with a digital display, a 1- to 4-cup brew cycle for smaller batches, and a programmable clock/timer that allows for brewing "wake-up" coffee. A dishwasher-safe glass carafe comes included, complete with a comfortable stay-cool handle, measuring marks up the side, and a drip-free pour spout. For sneaking a quick cup of coffee midbrew, simply remove the carafe from the machine to pause the flow of coffee, then replace the carafe to continue the brewing process--a nice feature, particularly for those in a hurry for that first sip. Other highlights include a split lid for easy access to the brew basket and water reservoir, a Clean Touch control pad, an end-of-brewing audible tone, stylish wrap-around housing that minimizes heat loss from the carafe, two-hour automatic shut-off for safety and peace of mind, and convenient cord storage to help keep countertops looking tidy. Accessories include a gold-tone permanent coffee filter (no need for paper filters), 10 unbleached paper filters (for the option to use paper filters), a coffee scoop, and an ion-exchange water filter to reduce chlorine and other contaminants from the water, helping to ensure a delicious cup of coffee. Available in a variety of colors, the coffeemaker measures 11-1/2 by 8-1/4 by 13-3/4 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

1.0 out of 5 stars Kitchenaid, January 28, 2009

By	Tommie H. "shopper" (Venice, FL USA) - See all my reviews

This coffee maker worked & looked great the 1st few months. Several times we got up to coffee all over the counter. After 1 year the error code came up that you had to call Kichenaid (Whirlpool). They quickly sent another - it worked for about 3 days, the same error code came up & they quickly sent another. It worked for about 2 months, spilled twice so quit using the programmer - Whirlpool actually called us to see how things were going. Told them about the spills and they sent a new lid for the pot that had been designed. It did work better but again the error code came up. Called them again & they sent yet another replacement. Same problems with the coffee all over the counter & the newer lid. Gave up, dumped it and bought a really nice 14 cup Cuisinart - about 1 year now & it's working fine with no spills. I will say Kitchenaid/Whirlpool customer service agents were extremely nice & helpful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Coffeemaker, September 22, 2007

By	Mary C (Kentucky, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: KitchenAid KCM534OB JavaStudio 14-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, Onyx Black (Kitchen)

All I can say is that this coffeemaker lives up to the fantastic reputation of KitchenAid. Works perfectly and makes the best coffee I have ever had. I have had quite a few different brands in the past and most of them high-end coffeemakers, but this one is, without a doubt, the best. The amount of coffee you can make is great, either a small amount or large amount. We have a carafe and when we entertain an extra large group of coffee drinkers we just make a pot of coffee and put it into the carafe and then make another pot and leave in on the KitchenAid and there is plenty of great coffe for everyone.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent coffee but design improvements would help, December 11, 2007

By	D. Babbin (Bethlehem, PA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: KitchenAid KCM534OB JavaStudio 14-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, Onyx Black (Kitchen)

This is a very good coffee maker. It programs easily, looks great and like most coffee makers, makes a good pot of coffee. There are however, some minor design flaws. The lid to the carafe needed to be designed with more than a single slot for the brewed coffee to flow. Either users must position the handle to face directly in front (and not to either side) or during brewing, some coffee will flow over the lid. However, if a user positions the handle directly to face forward, coffee will not flow over the lid. Reading the water level on the reservoir is difficult to use. It is not clearly marked and users must rely on the carafe or the "filter rod" to measure the water level. A clearly marked resevoir would have helped a lot. Last, the lid to the carafe is not removable and a fixed lid is cumbersome to clean. A better system would have allowed for a removable lid where users could easily place the carafe along with the separate lid into the dishwasher.

The positives do out number the negatives. The coffee maker turns off automatically after two hours and a clear display of how long the pot has been sitting is prominent. The filter basket (the basket that holds the removable coffee filter) is also removable. That makes for easy cleaning. This is a big improvement over most manufactures who attach the filter basket as one unit, to the coffee maker.
