I’ve hade the coffee pot probably a year the fact that it doesn’t have a warmer feature drives me crazy it does make a descent pot of coffee pretty quick it’s wide takes up lotta counter space if you want to see the front there is a button on the side below the pot but it quit working without manipulation with in a couple months of owning it with as much hassle as it is having to turn it to read then turn it back then having to microwave my coffee once it shuts off I wouldn’t recommend it just better options for the same price and cheaper
