Melitta 46893 12-Cup Coffee Maker Reviews
I purchased this item after returning the stainless-steel carafe version (because the SS version leaked all the water out of the tank onto my counter). I was skeptical, but presumed that the SS one was simply defective.
The glass version has worked out perfectly, and is the best drip coffee maker I have had in several years.
PROS:
Brew-strength selector-- I like the "bold" setting-- the coffee tastes great! No need to add extra coffee for a bolder flavor, the temp of the water automatically adjusts to create the perfect brew based on your selection.
Timer: easy to set the night before for hot coffee when you wake up
Auto-off: always a nice feature, also, unlike some others, you can turn the hot plate back on to reheat the pot. Other machines I have had will not allow repat-on without adding water to make a new pot.
Hot plate temp adjust: I live at altitude, so I really like being able to set the hot plate to "high" to actually keep the coffee HOT.
Carafe: it doesn't leak or drip! It really doesnt! No more icky rag on the counter to catch drips.
CONS: (quite minor)
The filter basket is a bit shallow; this is the first coffee maker I've had that you really must fold the filter edges over . If you don't fold them, it doesn't fit very well.
The LCD is quite bright-- doesnt' bother me as I don't sleep near the kitchen. Would be an issue in a dorm-room or a small apartment where the LCD is visible from sleeping areas.
Overall this is a great coffee maker with all the features you need, plus some really nice ones like the brew strength.
The price is reasonanble . Definitely beats the Mr. Coffees and Cuisinarts out there.
