KRUPS Coffee Maker 10 Cups Simply Brew Stainless Steel Drip Coffee Maker, 900 Watts Coffee Filter, Drip Free, Dishwasher Safe Pot Silver and Black

The best baby of coffee makers
This is really a personal size coffee maker. Its footprint is about half a sheet of notebook paper. Krups is a solid well-known brand. In Europe a cup is 6oz. This coffee maker is marked to hold 32 oz of water to produce 30 oz of piping hot coffee. 2 oz of water is lost by soaking through the coffee grounds. It leaves plenty room for adding sugar, cream or that Starbucks effect in my 32 oz tumbler that keeps it hot all day. It’s well made and has nice looking stainless steel and black decor. The carafe is glass and pours better than our bigger one. It has a removable filter cup that holds a removable permanent filter with its own cute little handles. It’s not made to easily use #2 paper filters. I’ll buy a 2nd permanent filter now before I really need it. The whole backside of the coffee maker is the water reservoir. Everything is designed for quick, easy use and clean-up except the cord is 2 feet long and not removable.I can travel with this little one. Put it in my office. It makes a nice gift. Perfect for dorm rooms, tiny kitchens, or 1-2 people. I can share a generous 16 oz with someone and have one myself. I added a little hand-cranked coffee grinder. It has 6 grind settings. 2 fills grinds all the coffee needed and takes a minute to do both. We have an electric grinder. It’s loud and not something you want to hear in early morning. With 2 lbs of coffee beans I put it all in a small carryon luggage duffle bag. The best part is I make great tasting coffee or tea anywhere I want without disturbing anyone and it’s so much cheaper. No more gas station or fast food coffee for me.UPDATE: I just want to say I have none of the problems others have reported. No drips, spills, or overflows. The filter and filter cup both snap in to stay without forcing or relying on the lid. Water reservoir openings are large and can fill from left or right side. It’s all one area. This Krups doesn’t auto turnoff but the warming plate will shutoff after 1 hour. It has auto pause for a quick pour. But I’ve never had a time when I can’t wait for a pot to finish. This one is only 30oz. I think some complaints didn’t get genuine Krups. This one has real metal and quality plastic parts where shown. Lookalikes are a very bad problem worldwide. Premium brands get nailed by bad reviews because customers think their product is genuine and don’t question it. We have a Cuisinart at home with all the features. Just like cable TV, we use only 4 all the time. Hope this update adds comparison.

Sometimes simple is best
I had an expensive coffee makes with all the bells and whistles for many many years until it suddenly stopped working abruptly. The clock was horrible to change and I never used the different brewing strengths or the other programmable features. I needed something fast, and the simplicity of this model appealed to me. And since I downsized a year ago, the compact size was perfect for a smaller kitchen. I’m very happy with it – push the button, you get good coffee. That’s it. Bonus that it came with its own mesh filter, although the one I already had fits it as well. Yes, it’s a bit difficult to get the last drops of water in to the reservoir, but not a deal breaker for me. 9 out of 10 points.

Just not hot enough…
I REALLY wanted to like this, and I did like a lot of things about it…the small footprint, the cone filter (my preference) and it made a very smooth cup of coffee. However, it was nowhere near hot enough for me. Some people suggested leaving it on the warmer for a few minutes, which did help a bit, I also ran the carafe and my coffee mug under hot water before brewing and that helped some…but not enough, and honestly, I don’t want to have to do that much work for a cup of coffee. The temperature in the carafe was 166 or so, versus the Capresso Single Serve at 179, and the Cuisinart 5 cup at 180. The 166 may be enough if you drink your coffee black, but for me and the amount of cream I add, it was lukewarm. Overall, I prefer the Cuisinart 5 cup, and even though it has a bigger footprint and is a bit more expensive, it also has a cone filter, makes a much hotter cup of coffee, and has auto shut off.

Muy sencilla de usar y elegante

This coffee maker makes excellent coffee!! Had no issues pouring water into reservoir. Some reviews indicated this as being a problem although the water pours into the reservoir with ease! Used the recommended amount of coffee and it was perfect for us! It does brew a little slower than your average coffee maker although there is a reason for this. Depending on which strength of coffee you choose this will vary. It’s obvious that a little more time brews a much better cup of coffee. We have tried multiple coffee makers and always ended up with coffee that was subpar. I would highly recommend this coffee machine!!!

This product is 110V and has what looks like a US plug on it. It is not suitable for use in the UK. The product is listed on Amazon.co.uk. As it was an electrical product listed on the Amazon UK site i stupidly assumed it would work in the UK. I am now 3 conversations deep with Amazon customer support. There is no issue returning it, however the returns label is to a destination in Kentucky in the US. Given that i am in Edinburgh, I did contact Amazon to ask if that was the most efficient way to return the item. I’m still in the chat – explaining. What ? – the product ? – that looks fine – we spent a long time searching for machines before finally settling on this one. What idiots we were to check it wasn’t going to be listed with a US plug on an UK website.
