…it seems to be made of flimsy plastic, a thin aluminum casing, and the glass carafe feels like it’ll break if I so much as sneeze on it. They couldn’t even bother to print cup measurements on the carafe. I mean, it’s pretty, I guess. Also, I had to return the first one I got, it was DOA right out of the box. Disappointing, because it was a lovely bright red. Returned and got this boring off-white instead.
As the owner of what looks to be the exact same model (mine’s “Pistachio”). I wouldn’t argue with anything you’ve said (although I haven’t had any hardware issues; knock on wood)
It does still make good coffee though. And I actually appreciate the simplicity in some regards.
It does make good coffee. Which is why I’ve chosen to keep it, despite the apparent flimsiness.
When I first unpacked it I seriously thought the reservoir cover and filter cover were packing material 😂
I started out making sharpie marks on the carafe for my typical fill levels; now I just fill it on my scale.
