Great purchase, very impressed with this. Cooks food fast, so many options to choose from.

I bought this little hummer of a coffee maker on a whim and suggestion from Wirecutter. I am not disappointed because it has performed very well and my is better than my older coffee maker. I especially like the two selections; classic and rich for a selection of the taste from the brewing. While it comes with a reusable basket, I have been using unbleached #4 coffee cones. I had just bought a new supply so decided to use them before trying the basket. I was concerned about the whether the reservoir would leak, but thus far, I haven't experienced leaking. The timer function works perfectly for brewing before I get up. It has a heated bottom plate which keeps the coffee warm. The small batch function works perfectly for four scoops of coffee and 4 cups of water in the reservoir. One last item: the reservoir has a capacity for twelve cups of coffee. However, the amount of coffee scoops and water must match for brewing. IOW, don't put fours scoops of coffee in the brew basket and 12 cups of water in the reservoir. The machine will run the 12 cups of water over your 4 scoops of coffee which would produce a.......well, you get my drift. Merry Christmas, y'all.
