About a year ago I purchased a Hamilton Beach FlexBrew 2-Way Coffee Maker for my home. I LOVE IT. But recently I have started to travel taking care of fur babies. I needed a more portable coffee maker. This coffee maker fits my needs perfectly. I love the features from the 3 strengths to the 3 warming temperatures. I love if I forget to turn off the maker it has a 2 hour automatic shutoff. This coffee maker is programmable, and pause and serve feature. Everyone who has seen my coffee maker comment on how sleek and gorgeous it is. They are amazed at how affordable it is. The tell me it looks so expensive it looks. They also tell me how good the coffee is. Many of my friends have purchased this coffee maker after seeing mine. Love love love it.
