I love the ease of using this coffee maker. It grinds and makes my coffee in minutes! It did take patience and reading the directions to figure out how to set it up, but once it was done, it is so easy to use now! I love that I can now choose the strength of my coffee. There are also many size cups from 4oz to 24 oz! I can choose hot or iced coffee. AND it comes with a full pound of high quality coffee. What's not to like?!
