Making a cup of coffee has never been simpler. This coffee maker is top of the line. It comes with clear instructions, set up took about 20 minutes (i was learning how to use all the features). It grinds the beans right into the mug. Makes average coffee taste 10x better because it’s ground immediately before it’s made. It doesn’t have a filter so not only no mess, but it’s environmentally friendly.  It does get cleaned after every use, the same as a regular pot of coffee would. The coffee tastes so smooth, it’s literally the best cup i have ever had. Beautiful, modern design- i love having this on my kitchen counter.
