I purchased this to replace a 30+ year old Braun coffeemaker that was still in great shape and working well until there was a tragic carafe accident. After looking at many different brands and models I came back to this Braun model for its design and compact size to fit in my kitchen cabinet when not being used. I've impressed by the attention to detail and the improvements in ease of use. It has more features than I'll ever likely use, but it does the basics well and without any fuss.

Don’t buy. Ran great fir about 8 months. Broke and need to buy a new one

Simple and easy to use and clean. This is what I am capable of dealing with in the morning. Well-priced and reliable.

It's hard to pour the water in the back without spilling. Other than that, a marvelous tasting cup of coffee.
