After using my new Hamilton Beach Ultra Coffee Maker, I have kicked my other to the curb! I love how easy it is to clean all the part to the maker. I would have gave it five stars, but I have found that it is a little more work to get the coffee maker ready to use. You have to remove pot to dump and rinse it out while rinsing out the part where the coffee goes and remove the back to fill with water. Although it is more work, it makes it so much easier to clean so it kind of evens itself out. It brews super fast and keeps time of how long it's been warming! I also love the fact that you can get a filter for the water as a add on. Very good product, highly recommend. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
