Looks great on my kitchen counter. Front fill option is very convenient. Love the easy to read digital display.  The brew options button allows you to select your perfect cup of coffee, regular or bold.  The "bold" coffee option is my favorite. I can program the time so that my first cup is ready when  get up in the morning.   The 1-4 cup brewing option is a nice touch. It even has a "clean" option which allows for easy maintenance. Would highly recommend this coffee machine!
