Customer Reviews With Photos

I searched for a long time for a new coffee maker. I bought this one, used it for it days, and was disappointed. I was a big fan of Hamilton Beach, but I had several bad experiences with them. Why not buy this coffee maker: - The carafe does not keep the coffee warm. - The carafe spills coffee whenever I put it in the cup. - When brewing, it drips into the base. See photos! You will find it difficult to replace parts if you need to. This is my second Hamilton beach and I tried to buy a replacement carafe and they don't produce it anymore. Even if the product is online.

Works great , who needs to buy coffee when you can grow and make your own

Why 3 stars? I opened my box and the products was exactly like the pictures you see... all dirty, water actually in the water chamber of the machine and the base obviously used and cushioned feet uneven. I did buy a used one in November 2022 a new model and it lasted until October 2023, handle broke off. I decided to buy a more sturdy handled one new, but got this. I did not send it back. I was able to clean everything and my expressos are great. I love the size and it travels well when I visit others. I need my expresso!!! LOL

This is the 2nd one I have to return. Getting the red light to turn on to run is very difficult. When it does turn on and the system beeps is done brewing it over flows, even though it says “anti-overflow system 😆. Very poor quality for the price.

After months of research and loving the Lavazza coffee what doesn’t irritate my stomach bit the bullet and ordered it. Love that it makes cappuccinos vs Nespresso and adding the milk frother. Now 1 observation is that water collects in the pod dispenser and I don’t get why is does that and sometimes the espresso capsule light blinks orange even if I already inserted the pod. I am sure I can figure it out why I have these 2 issues but value for the money YES! The noise level is the same as to any of my other machines I had. Will order a 2nd one for my office.

I really like this cold brew coffee maker. The glass pitcher is easy to clean and has markings on the side to show pints, cups, and liters. The plastic lid has a silicone gasket to help seal the lid and the pour spout works well. The stainless-steel reusable filter does a good job of keeping the coffee grinds out of your coffee and is easy to clean. My only complaint is that there are no instructions that came with this coffee maker. I had to do a little research to get the best results. One mistake I made was putting the water in the pitcher before the coffee and filter. It's definitely easier to have that already in the pitcher with the coffee in the filter before adding the water. I also didn't know how much coffee to use and how long to let the coffee steep inside the fridge. That is pretty much to your taste, but I used about 5 to 6 scoops and then let it steep overnight. Also, because this is cold brew, sugar doesn't dissolve as fast, so I ended up making a sugar syrup. In a small pot on the stovetop, I warmed up a 50% water to 50% sugar ratio to make syrup. You can then pour this into your iced coffee for an easy sweetener. I've been very pleased with this coffee maker and would recommend it if you would like to try your hand at making your own cold brew. Just do a bit of research and experiment to see what works best for you.

I have owned nothing but Cuisinart coffee makers in the past. There is a particular model that I love, both the looks and performance. But after buying two of them, as they failed for different reasons after a few years, I looked for a less expensive replacement. I’m a bit of a coffee snob, and prefer dark roast strong coffee. Unfortunately because of the design of this, my coffee is very weak. It’s basically dirty water. I tried using both a paper filter with an extra reusable filter. But the water just doesn’t ‘pool’ up enough. The holder for the grinds is too shallow, and the grinds on the sides dont get enough water. In the picture, that’s about half way through a 4 cup cycle. I have to manually spin the filter for them to receive water. Sometimes you get what you pay for.

Compared to the Bee House ceramic cone brewer it does a better job filtering small particles. This matters a lot to me, because my espresso grinder is essentially locked-in to a fine espresso grind, so to brew straight coffee I either make an espresso and add hot water (the americano) or I just use espresso grounds for coffee. In a French press most of the grounds will end up in the cup, blech. The paper filter in the Bee House is better in that it captures over half the grounds but it still leaves me with a thick, gritty sludge on the bottom of the coffee cup. But this Primula stainless pour-over blocks 95% of the espresso grounds, leaving only a thin layer of dregs at the bottom of the cup, easily avoided. Not only that, but it saves on filters, which satisfies both the frugal Scottish and environmentalist Yankee in me. The official photographs don't make this clear, so I'm attaching some photos to illustrate that this is a two-part unit, a metal filter with a glass container.

I love the fact that I'm able to make coffee with fresh grounds as well as k-pods. I also love that I can make yes from loose leaves. It heats up quickly and the beverage of choice is good and hot, not lukewarm. It doesn't take up a lot of counter space, I like that fact a well.

I was so excited to receive this portable espresso maker. It arrived with a sturdy travel case that is a little big for storing in a suitcase but would be perfect for road trips or camping. It arrived fully charged and we soon found that a full charge makes 5 cups of espresso. It isn't the most intuitive to figure out but it comes with detailed instructions. The espresso is a little on the watered down side when using loose espresso but that could be user error. We bought espresso pods to try with it and it really makes the whole process smoother and cleaner vs using loose espresso so we will use pods when traveling. Overall it is a great concept and the travel case is very well made so we are hoping it is durable.

it is perfect turkish coffee maker and tasty and full foam. it is small fit everywhere if you looking coffee maker it is for you. Enjoy it your Turkish coffee.

Thought it was super easy to use and fun to make drinks with. It holds a solid amount of liquid enough to fill a regular water bottle. My only issue with it is trying to clean it as it can be a bit of a hassle. I use it for practically everything now, especially cold brew anything.

Sent me a used and dirty pot. Coffee grinds and stains are in it. Don’t scam people especially around Christmas, it’s evil.

I really love my French press. I use it for coffee, for infused water drinks, muddling lemons for vodka drinks, getting the juice from fresh raspberries - it's just a wonderful kitchen gadget to have. It stays perched upon my little RV kitchen counter (not much space there but I use it THAT often). My only complaint is that the knob broke about a month after using it. I still use it, but it's a bit more trouble. Can I get a replacement knob and the part it is attached to? I really do love this thing!

Looks great and works exceptionally well except the milk frother is lame, very lame. In the instruction booklet, you state to fill the reservoir. I only saw the one in back of the unit. I had to call your help desk to help me find where to place water to make a full pot of coffee. I should have watched the videos on YouTube.
