Elite Gourmet EC812 Electric 12-Cup Coffee Percolator, Stainless Steel

This is the best percolator since my 2008 & 2010 Cuisinart ones that I loved so much & used extra for tea as I was doing catering & cooking classes at the time. But I burned through those & was just making it on stove- but then needed 1 fast because I could no longer do that due to a stroke & nerve damage. I looked at the CRAZY prices of all of the percolators out there & then found this.It was an unused open box special & so I tried it because of the low price & it being ALL stainless steel. It brews an amazing cup of coffee & it is still great cold or reheated! It takes about 10-12min to fully brew and the base stays hot for 2.5hrs afterwards. The blue light shows when ready & it has a red light to show brewing. The inside of percolator is marked from 4 cups to 12 cups on the inside by the handle & so is the basket to ensure the right base amount standard pre-ground coffee from store. Im super stingy with my 5 stars & this definitely makes the cut!!I found if I wait about 3min after the blue light comes on then the whole pot is a little stronger. But if I pour right away I get an okay cup and the rest is much stronger.Also if you grind the coffee beans at time of brewing then you can reduce the amount of grounds by a few teaspoons too! The different strengths of beans and various roasts can be adjusted too. But I do recommend each time a new bean style/flavor is bought to stick with their basic markings before adjusting to taste!👍I also purchased the filters for it and they were $6 for 350. Those keep the holes from becoming clogged & having to spend time cleaning out the basket. Those actually save how much grounds I need to put in because you get a better brew. The filters are also nontoxic & non bleached plus fully compostable! Highly recommended for those who have disabilities or are on the go a lot! The filters is pre cut & half the thickness of a coffee filter- they work best if you rinse the basket out well & then place directly into the wet basket! Let the filter absorb the water in the basket for about 3seconds & then add your coffee or tea leaves; then drop the basket into pot with pole inside.

My first new percolator in 10 years and this 12-cup electric model works great! 10 minutes to brew 12 cups with a "keep warm" feature. Love it!!

Works perfectly. Living in Japan and wanted a percolator. Few available but this one works great. Could probably be a bit more solid in some parts but seems like decent quality. Makes great coffee, and no more filters!

I purchased this unit in June 2025. It worked fine until the plastic globe cracked. I figured it would be an easy replacement. Other models can fit universal globes. There are many globes out there to be purchased for replacement. But not this one. It requires a thread for the nut. Since it was fulfilled by Amazon I reached out to them. They sent me to manufacturer. Manufacturer said they don’t do replacement parts to Canada (they are in the US). They said contact Amazon again. After almost an hour with various reps I was finally offered a gift certificate because Amazon can’t supply the 3.00 part either. So this large piece of metal is now just to be thrown away with not even a years use.Don’t waste your money and Canadian buyers of anything that may need replacement parts - on any purchase - better make sure you can get them here in Canada. Amazon suggests I reach out to each supplier before buying anything to make certain this isn’t the issue for any future items. Just because it’s Fulfilled by Amazon does not mean they will go that extra mile and actually have the most common of needed parts.I would not recommend this product and I recommend highly researching what you do buy. Both manufacturer and distributor on this item have shown no concern for waste.
