Otherwise, it works fine. We are replacing another single cup coffee maker with this one and were disappointed to find that the space to put the cup is much smaller than our previous maker. We have very few cups that fit into the opening.
Makes a good cup of coffee. I love the cup-at-a-time coffee maker. I am single and only want one cup in the morning so it works out great.
Third, because of the way it's made, it's not possible to open up the reservoir sufficiently to clean it out. A cup-at-a-time coffeemaker is a great idea, but this one was poorly designed and performed unacceptably. I ultimately gave up and got an electric kettle and a cone filter, that works much better. So pretty quickly you've got some old coffee grounds stuck in the water reservoir, and your coffee starts tasting bad as a result. First of all, the water flows into the grounds so quickly that the compartment overflows. Second of all, because of the way it's made, when that happens the water with coffee grounds in it backs up into the water reservoir, which becomes filthy with coffee grounds.
I ordered ONE pot, received THREE, returned TWO and am having difficuly receiving the credits. An excellent and inexpensive unit that does the job pronto. However, NEVER use Amazon's "One Click" ordering.
My first one lasted more than 5 years, which added up to.02 cents per day. This little drip coffeemaker is durable, inexpensive and absolutely perfect for anyone preferring a fresh cup of coffee each time. A great choice. It arrives with a permanent filter but I prefer using # 2 paper cones, a personal choice. It's a little workhorse, easy to clean with no bells and whistles - no clock, timer, or Muzak; but for the low cost dependability it's a terrific buy.
