I bought this to replace my Hamilton Beach coffee maker that I had for about three years.  I like the Hamilton Beach but sometimes it leaked water onto the counter.  This Quisinart coffee maker is a heavier model with a larger water reservoir on the side.  It doesn't leak at all.  It seems to be very well made and looks nice in my kitchen.  It also brews a very good cup of coffee.   

Pros: I especially like the filter.
Cons: None.
