Does make good coffee, but also makes a mess...

Does make good coffee, but also makes a mess...
I really love the concept/look of this thing. Very minimalist and modern design. It fits in well with my decor without being annoying!The coffee it makes is as good as any other drip coffee maker. Really not all that different. It uses #4 Melitta filters and even comes with a few in the box. Obviously, the filters fit in there perfectly, as it is the same brand.Now for the bad. At this price point, I expected a bit better in the cleanliness area. After you brew coffee, the filter compartment lid gets condensation drops all over it. OK, that is normal! The lid only lifts up and inward via hinge. When you lift the lid up to dispose of the used filter/grounds, condensation from the lid spills onto the area between the compartments. There is no catch or anything below the lid to prevent water spillage. Seems like a design flaw. I'm having to keep a paper towel next to the machine for when I lift the lid.Other than that design flaw, it is a pretty solid machine with great aesthetics. Easily a 5-star product if it didn't make a mess!

This is a great coffee maker. It heats the water really hot ( the key to a great brew) and puts on a show while doing it! The design is modern and sleek, plus the lip on the pot is perfect for pouring with no dribbling. Makes a delicious cup of coffee!

It's a good, high quality coffee maker that I think will last a long time. It doesn't offer a lot of innovation or anything but it certainly LOOKS good owing mostly to the glass and lighting. I would maybe look at other options given the price but if you want something SOLID, I think this meets the mark.

We are big coffee drinkers and have had this pot for several years. It makes great reliable coffee and has all the bells and whistles that matter (programmable, auto-shutoff, pour-mid-brew drip stopper — all that) — and it lasts. We finally burnt out the element in the brew stack (but the light still looks pretty!) and I came here to buy another. It’ll be here by Saturday and it can’t arrive fast enough! Thanks, Melitta, for a nice machine and an example of « you get what you pay for ». All the best, Captanne

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )
I have used this for a couple of months now and have really had time to decide how I feel about this coffee maker.
I have had quite a few high end makers, as well as the ever so versatile, but not terribly reliable beloved ninja I am weary of replacing. My husband and I drink very different coffee. Him, two big tumblers medium roast regular. Me, two mugs, bold, dark roast decaf or cappuccinos/lattes. The ninja is so fabulous for our household, but they truly are unreliable.
Hence the Melitta.
The Melitta makes a very reliable good pot of coffee. It doesn’t burn it while on the burner. And the shutoff time is reasonable

Love the look of it when first opened. It is a basic coffee pot. On/off/timer. Bold/regular. 4-12 cup size brew.
The swivel plate is a cool gimmeck, but for $239 there are a ton of other functional features I would rather have had.

I don’t like that the part of the basket lid where the water drips out is constantly covered with grinds which clog the openings. And we have only made 4 cup pots so I can’t imagine what a mess it will be if we make full pots.

The thing I dislike the most is the enclosed water reservoir. This is poorly thought out (and I will bet was designed by a wonderfully artsy person who doesn’t have a lot of logistics/engineering experience. It only looks good when you open the box. From the moment you pour water in the reservoir you will have an unattractive glass reservoir with permanent condensate and sweat build up…totally destroying the entire aesthetic being marketed ($230 isn’t the price for a basic coffee maker). Worse than the disappointing aesthetics is the bacterial risk of having water locked into a sealed system in perpetuity. Even if you take the lid off after brewing, the reservoir never dries, not even after sitting unused for two weeks when we travelled. I normally clean my pots with vinegar once a month. With this pot I don’t know if that is frequent enough to stay off bacteria, mold, etc

I just bought a new ninja, which makes me sad financially, and environmentally.

My search for better than ninja continues

Melitta, redesign the reservoir!

The media could not be loaded.
 I got this unit to review, but it was just in time, as my beloved Bonavita coffee maker finally died... well, it developed a leak. Anyway... let's get to the review:

First of all, this coffee maker looks great! It is bigger than my Bonavita, but it also brews more coffee, so that's understandable. The carafe is all glass... even the handle. I am a little nervous about breaking it when washing up, but so far so good... and replacements are available if worse comes to worse.

There are two glass covers -- one for the water reservoir and one for the filter housing. The one on the water reservoir is a lid that comes off, and the one on the filter reservoir is hinged. I kind of wish they were both hinged to minimize the chance of dropping and breaking it.

The filter basket is removable and easily cleaned. It has the "sneak a cup" button on the bottom so that you can pull the carafe out and get a glass before brewing is complete and not make a mess.

Thecarafe sits on a hot plate. The hot plate and the brewing heater are two separate units in this coffee maker, which is not usually the case. This allows the brewing heater to turn off after brewing is complete, and I would guess it gives better control over the temperature of the carafe... but that's just a guess. You can set the hot plate timer for as little as 30 minutes or as long as 2 hours. If you need to extend that time, just press the brew button again. I need to do this sometimes, as my wife gets up for work before me.

The "dashboard" (where the clock display and all the buttons are) is a separate piece that can rotate around the carafe. This means whether you place it with the left side out, right side out, or with the carafe side facing out, you can always have the display and controls facing you. That's a really nice touch. The controls are pretty straight forward. There are buttons to set the clock and auto program timer. The display lets you know at a glance if you have set the auto timer.

When brewing, the clear pipe that the hot water percolates up through glows red! It's actually a pretty neat little touch. It lets you know when brewing is happening, and just adds a bit of flair to the process.

The coffee tastes great. As with any coffee that sits on a hot plate for a while, you can start to taste a bit of a burnt characteristic, but I would say that it is less pronounced than many cheaper coffee makers I have used. I have gotten accustomed to the very high quality coffee that my Bonavita produced, and this unit does not disappoint. My previous coffee maker brewed into an insulated carafe, and I do miss that. If they had offered this Melitta unit with an insulated pot instead of a hot plate, I would have gone that route. However, this one is working out pretty well for us. I would recommend it.
