Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Despite its small size, this Krups coffeemaker brews full-flavored coffee. If your java consumption is rather tame, or you don't have much space on your counter, this is the coffeemaker for you. The filtering action of the exclusive Krups deep-brew technology maximizes the coffee's richness. A special heating and tubing system minimizes calcification, and the Aroma Savor System lid locks in flavor and aroma. A magnified water level indicator eases water measuring when you're still half-asleep, and the automatic warming plate keeps your coffee warm if you happen to nod off. For those of you who must rush out in the morning, the Stop 'n' Serve feature allows you to pour your first flavorful cup without waiting for the entire pot to brew. --Marcela Broussard

1.0 out of 5 stars don't buy it!, September 8, 2000

By	Sharon Feeney (Greenfield, MA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Although the coffee tastes wonderful, this coffeemaker is a shame for this company to sell! The carafe drips no matter how you pour it! What's worse, is that the company will not admit their fault... They wanted me to send the carafe in for a replacement -- NO thanks, I don't want another problem like this again!

3.0 out of 5 stars Perfectly Practical, June 6, 2001

By A Customer

I'm a college student who was looking for an easy, low-fuss way to enjoy coffee and hot water on cool mornings. This coffeemaker was the solution to most of these problems. I found that this four cup machine enabled me to make a small pot of coffee for myself or to make hot water for cereal and hot tea. The drip stop feature proved very useful when I was in a hurry. Also, it was very helpful not to have to mess with little paper filters. However, one feature that would enhance this product would be some kind of safety shut-off for the burner. The main problem I found with the machine was the pitcher. It dripped horribly when I tried to pour anything--and I wasn't the only one with this problem! I rejoiced when the pot accidentaly broke--for I could find a new, more improved one! Overall, this machine is a fairly good deal considering the limited supply of four cup machines in the market.

4.0 out of 5 stars pot is fixed, February 15, 2001

By A Customer

No dripping problems on the pot I just purchased. Makes excellent coffee with less input. Permanent filter is also very nice - no more having to buy that item.
