Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Create coffee with rich and robust flavor miles from the nearest espresso shop with this stylish percolator from Arcosteel. With heavy-duty 18/10 stainless-steel construction, the percolator performs admirably whether bubbling over a campfire, on a camp stove, or in a home kitchen. A phenolic handle remains cool to the touch while coffee boils in the pot. The percolator brews up to 8 cups of coffee--an ideal size for individuals or a small family. The filter basket catches coffee grinds for a more pleasurable drinking experience. For best care, clean the percolator with a mild detergent and avoid steel wool and other abrasives. The percolator measures 7-1/4 by 8-3/4 by 5-3/4 inches, and weighs 3 pounds upon shipping. --Jessica Reuling

2.0 out of 5 stars good coffee, not so good product, February 25, 2005

The coffee tasted much better in these, but:

1. After two cleans, the top mica knob (I think it mica instead of glass) cannot screw back in any more.

2. You have to dry inside the pot with paper towels or it will rust. I left my to dry by itself and rust start to show inside the pot.

So after two used, I have to throw this out because of the rust and the bad knob.

3.0 out of 5 stars Top clear PLASTIC knob top melts..., July 31, 2006

Great pot ~ except for the clear PLASTIC knob on top. After two or three uses, the base of the knob melts during percolation and the knob cannot be used any longer. I contacted FARBERWARE Corporation for a glass replacement, but they do not offer one. Generic glass percolator tops do not fit. Purchased new plastic replacement tops from Farberware, but the same thing happened. That is the BIGGEST drawback with this percolator. Could be a potentially dangerous item. Top can come off while pouring coffee and someone could get scalded. Farberware didn't stand behind their product when I informed them of the problem.
