Bad coffee maker, boo!

Worked well for 5 months, shut off after 20 minutes. Now the electricity falls into the socket and does not work. Revain only allows returns within 30 days. Warranty 1 year, but did not help! Rip off $200 and no customer service.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • No

An ugly burn mark on a plate.

Well I really like the coffee maker itself but it's not cheap and it immediately has a ring where the heating element burns through the burner. It's really discouraging and gross. I called customer service and bodice they told me it was ok mmmm no. I can return

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Empty

Nice looking coffee maker

A beautiful kitchen appliance that makes people happy. However, it is annoying due to the positioning of the water tank. When preparing coffee, never completely drain the water from the jug into the tank. There is ALWAYS at least ½ cup of water left in the carafe, so take this into account whenever you brew coffee. It's disappointing that high-tech brand SMEG didn't find this design flaw during product testing. :(

Pros
  • Top marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Little things

The cutest coffee maker bug ever

You would think that at this price point the quality assurance of this coffee maker would be excellent. Good luck trying to pour the water from the jug into the reservoir on the back of the coffee maker. You literally have to tilt the entire coffee maker on its right side at a 45° angle to pour water, as the lid of the coffee maker doesn't open far enough to pour out clean water. This is such a cute coffee maker. and I love the color but what a picture😕… No longer made in Italy - now made in…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Useless features

Overpriced and very tacky / flashy branded but stylish!

:-) PROS: Very attractive design and colors. -Easy to open and fill with water. (After months of discussion, I read somewhere that they fixed that kink, which is why we bought it) - We haven't used it yet, but as a preventive measure we plan to only run it with water a couple of times to avoid any plastic smell to eliminate. :-( CONS: We took two stars out of five for the following reasons: one star for being extremely overpriced. Be honest folks, we're paying for the looks because as far as…

Pros
  • Well built
Cons
  • I'm worried about

UPDATED All Show, Little Function

I really wanted this SMEG coffee maker to work well. We have a SMEG toaster that looks great and makes great toast. However, the coffee machine does not disappoint. We've had it for six months now and while it makes delicious coffee, here are our impressions: 1) Filling the water tank with the carafe is difficult, and because the carafe hits the open lid over the filter, not all of the water can get out of the carafe to be emptied. We had to use an empty plastic creamer container to fill the…

Pros
  • Complete Set
Cons
  • Compatibility

Not worth it at Kitchen & Dining

If you really don't like the look of this product then there is no reason to buy it. This is not a great or even a very good coffee maker. Especially for the price. First, as others have pointed out, the coffee pot can break. My coffee pot didn't last 4 months (I bought the car in early October 2020, the kettle broke in early February 2021). The pot handle broke when I lifted the pot off the (top) shelf of the dishwasher. It wasn't an unusual force or anything special to get it out of the…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Hard to remember but it was
