Question: Is the button electrically operated or is it a mechanical button that opens the spigot with pressure from the cup?
Document: It came right on time and worked quite well. However, an average Styrofoam cup crumbles under the pressure of the spigot. I was pleased with the appearange and will use better cups next time.
I love this pot, however, some paper coffee cups bend when pressing to dispense. Also, she the pot gets less full, the pressure from using a regular mug can also move the pot. But all in all, I really like it. The spigot is high enough to accommodate the average coffee mug.
Not too bad but problem with the button: a foam cup bends and is not sturdy enough to push the button to release the hot coffee or water without risking scalding the hand...
The one-handed dispensing works fine if the cup being dispensed into is solid, like a coffee mug, but common sense is confirmed that paper cups are not sturdy enough to depress the button without collapsing. In order to dispense one-handed with a paper cup, you have to push the button with your knuckles, which puts your fingers in the path of potentially hot liquids.
This coffee maker takes forever to brew. You have to start this thing a hour before you want coffee for the cycle to finish. Can't use the push button dispenser on the bottom with a paper or Styrofoam cup . You have to put your finger behind the cup to push it without bending the cup while the hot coffee drips on your fingers. The coffee isn't that great either. But this is not the worst coffee make every. I bought the next smaller one with a real dispenser.
I love the push button dispensing. Now all we need is stronger disposable cups ;)  Great job on the dispensing ! !
This pot did not last long at all. First, we would burn our hands trying to use the push button with not glass cups, then after a couple of months, the spicket quit working. Would not recommend
I bought this for church use and would give a 5 star but the button for dispensing the coffee is not good for foam cups and only good for sturdy ceramic/glass mugs or cups. For foam cups it's dangerous as HOT coffee can spill as foam cups are light while pushing the dispenser button.
I purchased this urn for our church. I picked this one for the press button dispenser. I have tried it at home before taking to the church. It is great for making coffee in no time. I like the filter that is in the dispenser. Everything is easy to clean and put back together. I see getting many years out of this urn.
I got this pot as a birthday present. The lack of a timer was no big deal, I just got a wall timer to plug it into. Almost everything on this thing (functioning parts) is metal.... EXCEPT the piece that connects the dispenser button to the actual dispensing. Less than a year after receiving this, it no longer dispenses. I'm ladling out my coffee.
Answer: The ones we had were mechanically operated.
