First off let me get the biggest issue out in the open because this was what I was most upset about/ THIS DID NOT COME WITH THE GOLDTONE REUSABLE FILTER. In fact, not only did it not come with it AS ADVERTISED ON THE PRODUCT PAGE, but the booklet clearly states that not all models come with the reusable filter. I felt completely misled by this. We are trying to be more conscious of the impact we have on the environment, and I was really excited that this was supposed to have a reusable coffee filter, but it did not.
Now that thats out of the way, let me get to the rest of the facts.
This coffee maker can brew up 12 cups. It is very sleek and stylish in design and is attractive for a coffee machine. It comes with a water filter and a measuring spoon. Brews the coffee quietly and quickly. After the coffee is brewed, it will tell you if it is fresh or how long since it was brewed (in 30 minute intervals) then automatically shuts off after 4 hours. It also automatically stops dripping coffee if you pull the carafe out.
I received this item for free, but as of today it was listed at 78.40 which I felt was a little expensive for a slightly elevated basic coffee machine. Now had it come with the reusable filter as it was advertised, I would find the price point more palatable. But just by glancing at the other reviews I see that I am not the only one who was missing this key piece.
