What a great coffee maker!
This machine is everything anyone would want: built in filter, fast brew that is delicious,comes with a scoop for ensuring no waste and the coffee comes out piping hot I love it! what a great value for all you get . Easy to clean and looks great on my counter.

Solid functional coffee maker at a great price!
Brews hot, great coffee without all the frills. More expensive coffee makes cost more because of features rarely or never used. I like the clean look, without any gaudy company names on the front. Keeps the coffee hot, easy to use, easy to clean. Why spend two to three times more for another coffee maker when this does the job perfectly well!

Great little coffee maker but not better than the original
This was very easy to set up. Take out of box, remove packing, plug in. It is very functional since it’s a coffee maker. Coffe stays hot. The pot and filter are easy to clean, rest of coffee maker not so much.Now, I had the original design for my first coffeemaker, and I have noticed a couple things since I received this. One, as someone else had stated, depends on the grind of coffee as to if you receive 3 cups or 5 cups one brewing. The fine or the ground, the less coffee in the pot and debatable if you try and add water to make an additional half pot. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t.The coffee pot itself, I’m really not sure what they changed on the design unless it’s on the coffee maker, but I have noticed that depending on how you were holding it, depends on whether or not it poured straight or if it “leaks” from the pour spout.I’m not too sure about the redesign. It’s not as small as previous version, and at least with the old one, if I decided to pour a cup early, it stopped filling the pot. Not now. My fault, I saw it in the description, but I guess it didn’t register.Personally, I love Amazon Basics, but this was more of a miss than a hit. I had the original of this since 2019, and had to replace because the base stopped working; it no longer turned on ( because sometimes I’d forget to turn it off), so maybe I should have bought a new one of the old version.

Great Coffee Pot
I’ve only had it for one day but this seems to be one of the best coffee pots that I have ever purchased. Easy to program; smooth, accurate pour: good flavor; and perfect temperature (not too hot but not too cold).I was a little concerned by comments about the auto shut-off not working but didn’t have that problem. I would definitely recommend getting this if you’re looking for a new coffee pot.P.S. was a little concerned because it doesn’t come with a user manual but there’s a link to it in the description

Rightsizing your coffee maker is key for a 2nd good cup of coffee!
I live alone and usually have two larger size cups of coffee every morning. Typical standard 10 – 12 cup coffee pots have always been an issue for me as all warming pads are non-adjustable in temperature (why is that?). By the time I go back to refill my cup, the remaining coffee left in the pot is always burnt.Ironically if you buy a standalone warmer for a cup of coffee or tea, they are almost understandably adjustable in temperature. Coffee machine makers need to fix this imho. I could care less about clocks, timers, etc.Years ago, I switched to a 10-cup B&D glass thermal carafe coffee maker which worked great. No heating pad, no burnt 2nd cup of coffee. I couldn’t wait too long for the 2nd cup, as with only two cups of coffee the heat from the small amount of coffee could not keep the remaining coffee hot for too long, but it worked. As with all things after years of faithful service, that pot eventually died.I then bought a brand new highly rated B&D 12 cup steel thermal carafe coffee maker as B&D no longer makes smaller thermal glass carafe models. A great machine, but a huge mistake.The 12-cup steel thermal carafe does not hold heat like the older 10-cup glass thermal carafe did, so the 2nd cup is almost always cool. B&D tries to put “lipstick on this pig” by strongly suggesting you preheat the steel carafe with hot water for a few minutes, then empty it, THEN make your 2-3 cups of coffee if you want it hot. Man, too much effort, too much waster of hot water.This little machine is sized perfectly for my needs. Its measure of a cup of coffee is much smaller than mine (smaller volume), and yes, the number of cups indicated on the waterline of the machine doesn’t align with number of cups markings on the carafe (one cup less), I can live with that.This Amazon Basics five cup machine is good looking, small, simple, and very well made for what it is meant to be. While so much smaller, it can still use standard circular disposable coffee filers if you don’t wish to use the reusable filter that comes with it.The burner pad is sized for the smaller amount of coffee so it DOES NOT BURN the second cup of coffee! It was $20 vs $65 for my now boxed up and stored 12-cup B&D steel thermal machine. My only “complaint” is I think the glass wall of the carafe of this Amazon Basics machine is VERY thin. You must treat it very gently or it is going to break.Well done, Amazon!This coffee marker is MUCH less expensive and far simpler than a Kerig coffee machine. While it’s a little more work than a Kerig, not by much.-

Just OK
It works, and it’s inexpensive. That may be all that you care about. Couple of things to consider. It has a kind of thin and flimsy feel. After a couple of weeks of use, nothing has broken off, but I keep expecting it. There is something about the design – I can’t put my finger on it exactly – but I am constantly spilling liquid when I use this thing. It’s also a bit cranky when the cycle is finished. If you open the lid in order to remove the grounds, it “spits” at you. I actually had a small jet of boiling water shoot out in my direction from a hole in the bottom of the water chamber. No harm done, but it surely startled me. Some reviewers have commented that the auto-shutoff doesn’t work. I find that it works too well. I come downstairs in the early morning to feed the cat and start a pot of coffee. By mid-morning, it has shut itself off and the coffee is cold. Finally, and this isn’t their fault, you need to think about whether a “5-cup” pot is really what you want. A standard “cup” of coffee is pretty small. 5 cups is actually about 2 mugs. That may or may not be what you want. Bottom line… it’s cheap and it works, but you might want to upgrade a bit.

Great coffee maker that’s easy to use/operate.Been using daily for several months(purchased June 9), with no issues and is reliable.Brews fairly quickly, even at max capacity of 12 cups.I especially like the timer and strength functions. Very easy to program and set, to have a freshly brewed hot coffee waiting in the early mornings.Includes a reusable mesh filter, which is easy to clean. No issues with clogging, overflow or grounds in pot.The design is attractive with silver accents and looks nice on countertop.Conclusion: Good quality with easy to use features and great sale price. Definitely recommend! ★★★★★

This coffee maker is the perfect size for me. Keep in mind it’s small, but since I live alone, it works great. It comes with a removable basket filter, though I prefer using small paper filters (which I found on this site). I use filtered water from my fridge, and it brews a hot, satisfying pot of coffee. In the morning, I fill it to the 4-cup mark, which gives me about 2 cups of coffee (see photo).

Por el precio cuenta con mejor tamaño y calidad de materiales que otras del mercado. Es muy fácil de armar y utilizar. En pocos minutos prepara un par de tazas (las medidas estándar son de 240 ml aprox.). Con 15 g de café molido prepara 4 tazas o 2 de las convencionales. Es importante leer bien cómo limpiarla con agua y vinagre blanco antes del primer uso.
