Amazon Basics Coffee Makers, 5-Cup Coffee Machines with Reusable Filter, Coffee Pots, Black & Stainless Steel

For a coffeeaholic like myself, this is one sweet coffemaker! No complicated interface, no confusing operational interfaces, just a solidly built coffemaker ready to brew anytime you're ready!How simple that is: Fill the reservoir with your preffered amount of water, particularly filtered if you have it. Now fill the coffee filter with beans, (12 cups=6 Scoops), place it in the coffeemaker and push the blue button on the right sideand just kick back and wait...It's as easy as that! If you grind your beans as I do, the scoop provided is a little to small, you'll need something a wee tad bigger! Other than that, you're all in for some great coffee! ENJOY!

We purchased this to take on road trips, so we could have quality coffee in the hotel. I've always been a little concerned about using the in-room hotel coffee makers. And, quite frankly, the coffee most hotels serve in the lobby is weak. This coffee maker is lightweight, easy to transport, and does an excellent job with the task at hand. It makes a great cup of morning coffee. Consider buying a small tote bag to carry the coffee maker and pods. It's been a game changer.

Decent value for the money, but you can tell where they have cut corners to keep the price down. Note that the brewing basket is all plastic (on the left) compared to the metal mesh version from Mr. Coffee (on the right). If you're concerned about microplastics, the included plastic mesh basket could be an issue. Not only is it cheap, but the plastic mesh filter is as likely as the plastic mesh tea bags to shed microplastics into your coffee. I had just broken the glass pitcher on my Mr. Coffee, and it just happened to be a perfect fit for the new Amazon branded version.The electric cord is another obviously cheap part. The cable is stiff, which is a reflection of the braiding and size of the copper strands that make up the cord. The finer and thinner gauge the strands, the more supple the cable. The one on the Amazon coffee maker are very stiff, indicating that they've used a cheaper grade of cable.On the positive side, the coffee maker works fine. The brewing element shuts off after the water has been transferred to the brewing basket, so only the pot heater remains on. I also like that this coffee maker has a slim profile, so it takes up a minimum amount of valuable counter space.I'm happy with the purchase, but glad I had a different basket that would work. Now, we'll see how long it lasts.

I've been using the Amazon Basics 12-Cup Coffee Maker for a few weeks now, and it has exceeded my expectations for the price.Ease of Use: The simple on/off switch makes brewing straightforward-just add water and coffee grounds, and you're set.Coffee Quality: It brews a solid cup of coffee, hot and flavorful, without any frills.Design: The compact size fits well in my kitchen, and the stainless steel accents give it a sleek look.Value: Considering its performance and price, it's a great deal for anyone seeking a reliable, no-nonsense coffee maker.Overall, the Amazon Basics 12-Cup Coffee Maker delivers on its nromise of simplicity and quality

Love this coffee pot, I wanted something cheap and programmable for my husband who gets up at 6 and is too lazy to akke his own coffee. This is perfect, looks nice on the counter and makes some good drip coffee for 30$. The program hasn't field yet and he always has hot coffee first thing in the morning. If you are looking for something cheap, easy and straightforward this is it.

For the first time in years I decided to downsize to a smaller coffee pot. I choice this 5 cup! Love it. It’s perfect for me, a single woman brewing just for me. Coffee temperature is perfect. I no longer waste coffee by brewing too much and dumping down the drain. Perfect cup of hot coffee every time and at a great price!!

Bought this to replace an oster 12 cup. While it makes coffee, temp needs an increase. Also, it moves around too much. Needs more weight in the base and better soft feet to help with grip. I will be purchasing a different brand and put this in the pantry as a backup.

When first I opened the box I thought it was all a bit too fragile. However, after about 3 or 4 weeks of use I've begun to really like the coffee made from this little still and have not had any problems with it. I do remain careful with it but the coffee delivered from this little item has really been quite good. One does need to be careful emptying and cleaning the dry and/or wet little nylon netting device holding the dry coffee, I like my coffee fairly strong and it can reach this level easily.
