Kalorik Coffee Maker with Thermal Carafe

This was a gift for an elderly woman, she appreciated the fact that it didn't have a lot of buttons to confuse her with and the fact that she can take the Carafe outside to her patio.

Nice but doesn't keep coffee as warm as I had hoped, especially being a thermo...No assemply, took out of box ran water through pot to clean and ready to go.

Purchased for use in motor home, like the stainless carafe to prevent glass breakage, works fine, coffee tastes fine. Produces steam from top of brewer that soaks the cabinets and walls in a small space. OK for the price and occassional use.

Coffee does not get very hot. Have to heat cup in microwave, to get desired heat. The lid is difficult to deal with on the machine itself. Had better for less.

This coffee maker was given as a gift. I really like the no drip feature, and it brews coffee quick. Con: The finishing brew is a little loud.

I bought this coffee pot to replace a Black and Decker I have had for years. There was nothing wrong with the one a I had but I wanted the Kalorik because it was snazzy looking and I wanted a thermal carafe. The carafe did not keep the coffee warm, every time I poured it spilled all over the table, and snazzy looking only goes so far. Thank goodness I kept my old one, with its programmable timer that I missed. Its just a basic drip coffee maker, at least 15 years old...but if it ain't broken, don't fix it.

It should come with a few filters so you can get started right away.

[...] Metal original carafe tiny spout causes hot coffee to stream down the side and onto counter, table, lap... Unacceptable.

the pour spout is too small no matter how slowly you pour it spills and runs down the pot!!

I love my coffee maker in general. The only problem I have with it is: -very messy when we pour the coffee into the cup.
