So far so good! I have used this coffee maker the last three mornings. I've only used the 2-4 cup setting so far but have made both 2, 3 and 4 cups and the coffee tastes consistently good. It's made some not so great coffee beans actually taste pretty decent; will look forward to what it can do to "gourmet" beans. The timer is so easy to use, all the parts are easy to clean. I love that it doesn't have a heating element. This product worked amazing. I am hoping the product last very long, because it is pricey. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
