I got this coffee maker a couple weeks ago. I love that it is so compact and doesn't take up too much counter space. I like that I can adjust the base to fit the size container I'm brewing. I can brew myself a single cup or brew a whole carafe of coffee. I can even remove the filter system and use is as a pour over coffee device. It has a reusable filter so that I don't have to use paper filters. The carafe is easy to clean. The lid is removable so that I can reach in and clean it out easily.
