I recently received this coffee machine as a gift. This modern looking coffee maker is self contained and includes every element needed for its use (filters, spoons and a measure). The 12-cup glass carafe has an innovative locking lid that preserves the coffee's aroma and flavor. I love the way it looks in the kitchen, like a small sculpure! I am happy with the quality as well and cannot report any problems. I noticed a negative rating by another person who probably purchased a refurbished copy. That's why I encourage to purchase this item brand new through Amazon's museumofmoderndesign. I look forward to adding the Jasper Morrison toaster to my collection as well.

It's very handsome. I've had the coffee maker for over four weeks and I am very impressed. It's well designed and friendly to use. All of the elements are easy to understand and easy to clean. This one is quiet. The carafe, the measuring spoon, the water well, all the parts fit together with a kind of soft click that is very pleasant and well thought out.

If you are just out to make a pot of coffee you don't need this machine. It's expensive. However, if you are the kind of person that notices the little things throughout your day, it's a welcome addition.

Looks great on counter, but makes a lousy cup of coffee- carafe does not stay hot, steam builds up inside and it is prone to get moldy, and is awkward to pour.......

I've replaced the carafe 3 times. All 3 carafes leaked through the seal while pouring coffee, resulting in coffee spilled on the counter. It's a serious design flaw and apparently not fixable as Rowenta was not able to supply a carafe that does not leak.

This seal joins the upper and lower halves of the carafe. The 2 pieces are made from different materials. The top half is always plastic. The bottom can be glass or metal.

One would think that a company known for irons would know how to prevent leaks.

The Rowenta Morrison kettle and toaster also have problems.

The Morrison electric kettle also leaks at the seal between the metal plate at bottom and plastic side-walls, leaving water awfully close to the electrical contacts between the base and the kettle.

The Morrison toaster has wiring that flexes as the toast goes up and down. This wiring breaks after a few months of usage. it can be soldered back, but it is a pain to fix.

As much as I love the form and design, this whole product line is a big disappointment. Good designer. Bad implementation by Rowenta.

Sure, this coffee maker is beautiful on the counter, but it's terrible. The coffee carafe leaks, it's difficult to slide the carage back into place, and worse, the top is poorfly ventilated so mold grows under the cover if you don't keep it open. Nice concept but poorly executed.

this coffee maker sits atop my newly renovated kitchen, looking so beautiful i purchased two more, for fear of losing this beauty... its coffee making function equals the beauty factor as well. could not be happier with purchase..

Do not buy this coffee maker. It is beautiful to look at but it does not function properly. The coffee pools up on the lid and spills out.
