I love the OXO brew 9 cup coffee maker, it looks beautiful on my counter and also makes amazing coffee. The 9 cup carafe is perfect for us to start our day and I love the freshness timer. The option to switch the settings from the full 9 cups to a smaller, personal amount is convenient and works perfect me throughout the day. Coffee tastes amazing and the way the water is poured over the coffee grounds helps ensure a full flavored cup every time. I definitely recommend this product, I love it!
