I really enjoy the OXO 9-cup Coffee Maker in my house. Set-up and operation are pretty straightforward. You are able to select a cup size of either 2-4 or 5-9, which determines how long your pot will run, optimized to your selection. You are able to set a timer for the coffee maker to start brewing a pot, and I love this feature. I am able to have my coffee ready by the time I walk into the kitchen, which shaves a couple minutes off my morning routine. The double wall stainless carafe keeps the coffee hot/warm longer than the glass pot on my previous coffee maker. The coffee maker is large and only provides about 2" clearance under a traditional height wall cabinet, and would best fit in an area not restricted by an upper cabinet. Overall, I am very pleased with both the ease of operation and the coffee that is brewed and I highly recommend. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
