Hamilton Beach has done it again!!! This 12 cup coffee maker is just what I have been waiting for. The coffee maker comes with full instructions and even includes a few filters for starters. I love how you do t have to wait u til the whole coffee pot is finished brewing before you grab some. This was a major plus  thing for me especially if I am running behind time in the mornings. I also like how it has a place to store the cord so it won’t clutter your coffee area. Best coffee pot I have had hands down!!
