I absolutely love this coffee maker. It makes coffee making so much easier and brews in half the time of my old maker. No messy clean ups or water spilling everywhere. Easy to add water and grounds. Ih and the wake up timer works like a charm. Just set your time and get your grounds ready to be brewed the next morning and when your alarm goes off you have a fresh pot waiting for you to drink!!
