Coffee could be stronger but that is my only complaint (and I like strong coffee so others might not be of the same opinion). No wasteful cups, I like that very much. Better than in room coffee makers so I gave it 5 stars.

Drink Bulletproof coffee every morning so this little coffee maker and the Hamilton Beach personal blender together do very nicely on the road.  FYI, that little  HB personal blender does a great job but I think it's meant for cold things. I blend butter, MCT oil and a small amount of cool coffee to make a concentrate, then once transferred to a mug, I put more hot coffee in the cup.
