We have had this coffee maker for a little over a week and really enjoy it. The removable water reservoir is exactly what we were looking for. The one issue we have is in the area where the Spiral Showerhead is. When you open the lid to remove the coffee grounds, the entire area is covered in water from condensation. The condensation runs down the side of the coffee maker and makes a mess when opened. If it was not for this issue, we would give it 5 stars.
