This coffeemaker was a huge disappointment. It’s cute but THAT IS IT. It has one job and it struggles to do it. First it always makes less coffee than prepared, so you get 6 instead of 8 . Today, after sloooiwly brewing for 45 minutes (!!!) it came up with 6 cups not the 10. There is no vent for steam escape so the whole outside is full of condensation. It looks pretty but doesn’t function.
