Review on ☕ KRUPS Coffee Maker, LED Control Panel, 12-Cup Coffee Machine in Black by Martha Fernandez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent coffee maker at any price

I have 2 coffee makers and was disappointed with the one with the flat basket filter as I am the only one who drinks coffee in my house on a typical day and I need just make 2 cups of coffee. So with the flat basket filter I felt like I was missing coffee in my cup as I felt the flat basket made the small portions too weak. The other coffee maker I had was an old Krups coffee maker with a 10 cup cone filter which I've always preferred so when buying a new coffee maker I just wanted to look at the cone filter. Shopping at Best Buy, Target, Bed, Bath & Beyond, etc. turned out to be more difficult than I thought it would be. So I came to Revain to search and read reviews. Two things that helped my decision were the feedback on the brewing temperature and the temperature of the coffee when sitting on the heating pad that I hadn't considered before. The feedback was strong. The price was right. It uses a cone filter. It's not too big or bulky. I don't have to hold onto the lid when pouring to avoid spilling my coffee (big bonus!). I've been using it for a couple of weeks now and I'm 100% happy with my purchase. Here are a few points I read in other reviews that confirmed and also convinced me to buy this coffee maker: * It keeps this temperature until it shuts off after two hours. The automatic shutdown is 2 hours, which is the ideal time. * The tank you pour water into is large, and it is almost impossible to splash water when filling. * The filter surface is huge and the #4 filters slide out to the right i*Option: Use the gold screen provided. It can be used in place of a paper coffee filter, creating a little more clutter but making your cup of coffee taste better. from every angle *Lighted clock* They use #4 cone filters, which I find produce a better cup of coffee than flat (basket) filters - they concentrate more grounds in a smaller area, allowing the flavor to come out better. * Very simple, clear control panel. * Good spout on the carafe that virtually does not spill when pouring coffee into a mug. I would like to get a different color, but otherwise I am very satisfied with this coffee machine.
