I like how quick this coffee pot brews. It’s really fast! I love the thermal carafe. It keeps the coffee warm for a while. I really don’t like the pour system from the carafe. It pours incredibly slow. I also don’t like that I have to use filters. I really prefer filter less systems, as they are better for the environment. Overall, I think this would make a great coffee pot for a camper or camp but not something for everyday use.
