Makes great coffee.  Design is sleek and easy to use.  Gave it a 4 star for two reasons.  1) Brew time for a full pot is around 10 mins.  A bit slower than most but I can live with that.  2) The water reservoir is in a spot that when using the carafe to fill with water the carafe can be tilted so far until it butts up against the open cover.  Overall, happy with the value, the design and the coffee it produces but some engineering tweaks might be in order.
