Taylor Swoden 12-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker, Regular & Strong Brew Drip Coffee Machine for Home and Office, Glass Carafe, Pause & Serve, Auto Shut Off, Black & Stainless Steel

So far, checks off all my boxes.
Okay. Only used once. It’s light mint green. I was looking at deeper aquas, and pinks; but there were bad reviews, or they were too expensive, or too big for my limited counter space. (Some pod users are incredibly small!)I already purchased a pink one for pods and a one cup basket. But I wanted something for when I want to make more coffee at once. And smell it when I wake up! Or percolate it for a change. My daughter prefers that. I love Donut Shop pods, but they are expensive!This one is programmable, which is nice. And it’s more compact, and cheaper than some of the other ones like that! Although it’s still a decent size.And turns out the light mint matches my cabinets perfectly!I did my whole apartment and kitchen Shabby Chic pink and aqua, with Paris roses. I was looking for those colors. Reviews tend to be confusing, though. Some people love things, and other people have problems.This had a nice color, features, size, price, and enough good reviews, to make me give it a try. And it’s even a 12 cup!(I was at looking five cups originally, to save space.)Well only brewed one pot so far. (Plus a plain water first for cleaning.) I had no problem pouring the water intoto the little spaces in the back on both sides. Not until that last little bit! Then it spilled a little bit. Even going to the left side. Just have a dish towel ready.I found that going forward to the narrow part towards the end helps, because the pot is then very vertical.I wiped off the extra drips on the burner, because for some reason it does a little when you’re putting the carafe in. And then it sizzles for a little bit. Not a real big deal! But I didn’t want problems, so I wiped it with a dish towel. No biggie! No water coming out of the machine. I use tap water.And the carafe is fine! I don’t know if they changed it, but it’s a normal thickness carafe, Not fragile. And the spout works fine! No dribble, thank God, pouring; cuz I hate that!So I definitely think it’s a great value for the money. I will update if it breaks down the road.It comes with a little scooper. Now I used four for four cups. Perhaps was a little weak. Maybe I’ll add one for the pot, as my dad used to say, next time. There’s also a strong coffee option.But for now, after returning a pink one that was 12 cups cuz it was just too big for me!This one got my little rose sticker of approval. Lol.Has to be Shabby Chic and pretty, to be on my counter!For some reason it will not let me post a picture at this time!*Update. It did sizzle the first few times. I realized from a tiny bit of coffee dripping out as it’s brewing. The star shaped holes on the pot lid and spring mechanism on the machine, where the coffee drips out has to mesh, I think.I found pushing the handle of the pot back helped. But it didn’t do it today!Also, I wipe the bottom of the carafe off first with a dry dish towel after filling, because people complain the burner rusts after awhile. I dry both. It’s easy.And you can just have it ready and turn it on in the morning, rather than programming.The sizzling on the burner was the only problem, when it’s first brewing. A little loud. But may have stopped.But I just wipe the burner off with a damp sponge when it’s cool, so it doesn’t rust. I don’t use it every day. I use my pods too.The light is a little bright at night, not blinding. I just turn the kitchen light on!The color actually matches perfectly!Use plain water twice first to clean.It says periodic cleaning with a little vinegar in water, and it has a clean setting.If the burner starts rusting in a few months, I will update. That’s the only thing they need to fix, I think!

Great product for the price. Quality is great.
The brew speed is amazing very easy to use, the quality is great especially for the price. Very easy cleaning as well, and doesn’t feel like cheap product. Everything that comes out of taste amazing! No chemicals or anything.

Slow brewing, but otherwise good
Had I seen this in a store, I might have passed it by. This is a small machine! After the initial washing and drying of parts, I took it through 2 cycles with plain water, waiting at least 10 minutes between each finished cycle, as per the instructions. The area for pouring water is small. Then I made a pot of coffee. It took 20 minutes to finish brewing! I also had pressed the “strong” button, but at some point it turned itself off. Of course I could have poured a cup in the interim, but I wanted to see how long the process takes. It comes with it’s own flat-bottomed, reusable filter and a coffee scoop, the latter of which I didn’t use.This unit otherwise has great features, but it is unclear whether it will turn itself off after 2 hours of warming. The manual says to “be sure to turn it off”. Steam rises and covers the electronic buttons, which is not a good sign for durability. I compared its 12 cups volume to my previous carafe and they were similar, so the small-appearing carafe holds as much as my old Mr. Coffee machine with a bigger looking carafe. Coffee tastes fine. Will update this review after a few more uses. Update: the pot handle is not ergonomic, but rather grated towards design, so it’s not particularly comfortable. So far it’s being like a champ and the delayed brew worked!

Tal cual la imagen , fácil de programar y buena imagen

Crappy product for the price. Takes for ever to brew a full pot of coffee. Not ideal for morning routine. Would not buy or recommend this name brand.
