By far the best coffee maker yet.  I plug it into my timer and wake up to the wonderful smell and "hot" delicious coffee.  The coffee stays hot without that "overcooked" smell or taste.  This is a replacement of a similar pot.  I'm hoping it'll last a while.  I use it everyday.  The previous pot broke in under a year.  I think the timer wasn't "heavy duty" so the amps might have burnt it out.  This is my 4th pot in 25 years.  Hopefully this will last a while.
