Really nice Keurig single serve K-cup coffee maker cover. The inside and outside are made of a thick, vinyl-type fabric, so it won’t stain when splashed with anything, food or liquid. It will just wipe clean. I wish all of my appliance dust covers are made this way. Highly recommended!

This coffee maker is very easy to use, comes with a 14oz cup and a filter + a spoon. Just add ground coffee and water and it works. Very quick.

I haven’t had it long enough to test its durability but it is everything that I wanted. Looks good and works well and can procuce hot water for tea. The slate color goes well with my decor. Unfortunately, I couldn’t put the K pods storage rack under the Keurig because my cabinets were too low but the alternative works out fine.

I've been using the Coffee Pot Decanter for a few weeks now, and I'm really happy with it. It's a simple, functional carafe that's perfect for everyday use. The carafe is made of durable glass, and it has a comfortable handle that makes it easy to pour. It's also dishwasher safe, which makes cleanup a breeze. I like that the carafe has a large capacity, so I can make a whole pot of coffee at once. It also has a nice spout that prevents drips.

Love it the company I bought it from sent the test strip for water a welcome pack of pods and I bought it as open box and I found out it was new great product and I will be a repeat customer with the company I purchased it from

I bought this because my Grandmother had one of these and its all she used. It made the best coffee EVER.. So I get this one in the mail. I will admit it makes GREAT coffee. But they are made cheap. The clear top is plastic after using the machine 4 times the seal on the plastic cracked making a mess. I do not understand why products from the 50's and 60's still work great but the so called great high tech crap breaks in 4 days. Grrrrr Please people if it worked great back in the day why change it? I posted a pic below to show where it was leaking. From what Ive read on all the other machines they are doing the same thing. ;(

Why is this product getting so many 5 star reviews? It’s terrible. Look how much grounds/ sludge got through. I’m returning this product. It may be cheap at 14$ but not worth the price if you’re drinking all these grounds. This makes me think most of the people are NOT CHECKING their coffee. The coffee may look clean and free of grounds or sludge but if you put it through a pour over filter you will see how much is really getting through. Skip this and find a French press with more filters or high quality filters. I made sure there weren’t any ground that got through the filter and I pushed down the press slowly to avoid any grounds passing the filter, so everything you see is what is freely passing through the French presses filter. I grounded up my coffee coarse too. Inherently some of it is grounded down into these very tiny particle you see in the filter. I don’t want to have to filter my coffee twice.

Works great

This product was $65 and I needed service and I feel ripped off because the phone number does not work. It says to call back and the email address on the care manual does not work either emails don’t go through so you get zero support I’m going to stop payment on this.

Glad to get this. Wish I would buy it sooner so I didn’t have to spend so much on Starbucks. You can make anything with this. It’s very easy to use.

The worst purchase and money thrown in the trash, it never worked properly, they turn on all the alarms and it turns off during use.. and SMEG does not have customer support

We got this after our $4 yard sale Proctor Silex finally ate it after a long second life. It was this or a fancy espresso machine. I've owned Breville products, and I've used plenty of super automatics. They're great until they break, and then they're a nightmare. And, just like flat roofs leak, or just like grass is green, the more functions and more parts, the more inevitable it is that something will break. Enter this coffeemaker. It's surprisingly chunky, but it doesn't feel like it takes up as much space as it does because there's a generous amount of what you might think of as negative space-- open but within the footprint of the device. Thus this is NOT suitable for a tiny kitchen. The filter basket swings out with an elegant, elliptical motion, with easy removal of the metal filter basket for cleaning. Setup is a breeze, as is the auto brew feature (called "delay" brew). The water tank is ergonomic and easily removable. There are other nice features, like a gentle, cool white illumination from the display, or the red light indicating that the warming plate is on. The coffee itself is also great. We aren't coffee snobs per we but we insist that the coffee be hot-- something cheaper coffee makers often fail spectacularly at. It's a relatively fast brew, although the different settings may influence the speed. Slightly annoying are two things: the "full carafe" option isn't actually a full carafe, nor does it drain the entire water tank when filled to the top. Other slightly annoying thing is that the filter basket doesn't have a spring loaded stopper to allow you to remove telhe carafe durimg the brewing cycle. This would be an easy feature, and most cheap coffee makers have this, too. But in this case, it's a slider, and you have to remember to engage it and then slide it back if you, like me, cannot wait for the thing to finish brewing. It is a boiler, so it'll actually boil water on demand, unlike the traditional thermoblock percolator setup. Haven't tried the other features but I will update this review accordingly. Great job, Ninja!

Clearly by my picture, I love coffee, and care about how I make it. I love the process, and enjoy the time spent. However, on some mornings I just don’t have the time. The De’Longhi is a lifesaver. It makes DELICIOUS coffee. It’s like a cross between a Chemex and V60. At approximately $150 it’s also a bargain compared to a Moccamaster, and to my palette, the coffee is just as good. In fact I use the moccamaster filters. The cup is better than my old Bonivata, and my breville grind control. The golden cup setting is perfect for most beans. But really light roasts should theoretically benefit from the longer pour over setting. However, I’ve found the prices setting brings out more roasty chocolates, and less fruit. Finally… I typically use a ratio of 1:14, (10 grams per 140ml of water) but they say .825:14. I tried my normal 10 grams per cup and the cup lacked clarity. They’re ratio works wonderfully. Clarity, depth, and flavor. So besides taste, why purchase this? 1. Even though they sell it as a place to put the basket at the end, the included stand also makes dosing beans much easier, pleasurable even, and keeps the grinds out of the carafe. 2. I’ve never been able to clean the boiler of a drip machine before. I love that I can keep it clean and dry after. Descaling will be a breeze! You can even measure the temp of the water if you wanted during the brewing process. 3. It’s gorgeous! A few things it doesn’t do: 1. Rinse your filter. You should do that and will greatly improve your coffee flavor. 2. No automatic preinfusion. But, there’s workaround! There’s an auto stop feature. So, wait for the water to boil, then just as it starts to statuette the grounds, pull out the pot, open the lid, give it a swirl, and set your timer for 45 seconds. Then close it up, and put it back in to brew! Things I don’t like: 1. A lot of plastic. I’m waiting for something to break… especially the small loop that, I think is needed for the pot to release water. But hopefully there’s replacement parts available. All in all: 1. Delicious coffee with clarity, complexity, and cleanliness (but not too clean), and soft mouthfeel. 2. Super easy to use and keep clean. 3. A bargain compared to some other makers of similar brew quality.

I genuinely can't recommend the Takeya Cold Brew Coffee Maker to anyone, it just doesn't work well at all. This product had one simple job to do, to make cold brewing coffee easier by removing the need to pour the brewed coffee through a filter, and it failed royally at this job. I followed the instructions provided with this brewer to the letter. I used my fancy Burr Grinder on the coarsest setting to achieve an even, coarse grind, just as the instructions recommend, and even with the grinds at the coarsest possible setting, the filter in this brewer let out so much sediment immediately that I contemplated not even finishing the first brew, dumping all the water and grounds out, and packaging the brewer up for return right then and there. I decided to stick with it, and see how the cold brew turned out anyway, and let me tell you what a waste of time that was. My standard plan for cold brewing is about 8 hours of room temperature steeping time, followed by 16 hours in the fridge. Before purchasing this, I made cold brew by just combining grounds and water in a bowl and then filtering them out. That, particularly the filtering, is an incredibly messy and time consuming process. I purchased this brewer to hopefully eliminate the need for filtering. The listing for this product touts the filter as being superb, making extra filtering unnecessary, I beg to differ. Immediately after gently submerging the coffee in the pitcher and screwing it in, the water in the pitcher looked like dirty river water because of all the sediment floating around in it, See photos. After the 24 hour brew had passed, I poured all the coffee through a filter, which is what I'd purchased this product specifically to avoid doing. There was a ton of sediment, more than I even imagined. Far more than I would consider acceptable. (See Photos) Again, I was using a Burr grinder on it's coarsest setting to get a very even grind. If you have a blade grinder or are using pre-ground coffee, this issue will be hundreds of times worse for you because the grind will either be uneven, or will be finer than you would like to use in this brewer. Even worse, the pitcher lid leaks all over the place when you pour the coffee. I was pouring it through a filter in to a large mixing bowl and got a good amount of coffee on the table, If you were trying to pour coffee in to a mug you would struggle to get 3/4ths of the coffee you poured out in to the mug. The pitcher was not over filled, both the lid and the cap were tightened fully, and the rubber seal that I guess is supposed to stop leaking (but doesn't) appeared to be intact. This is just poor design showing through. I will be looking in to a different cold brew maker, and sending this one back because it just doesn't work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Photos I've included. The first two photos show how much coffee grinds escape the filter and enter the water. The first is immediately after submerging the filter, the second is after about two minutes. The third photo shows how many grounds needed to be filtered out with filter paper.

I am confounded by this product. It is 3x the price of any other French press and does not deliver. While it does have an effective filtration system (a little finicky to take a part but it is effective at filtering the grounds) the insulation is terrible. I found myself needing to microwave any coffee poured after 30 minutes. I nerded out and set up a thermometer to read the temperature inside and out over time. By 40 minutes the coffee was already in the 150's which is not warm enough once it goes in the mug. I am adding a picture after 5 minutes showing the exterior at over 132 degrees when the inside at 189, demonstrating how poorly insulated this press is. For the money I expect at this should be a vacuum like a yeti or any other quality insulated steel product.
