I specifically ordered this pot because it says it comes with the gold tone reusable filter, and it clearly does not! I like the idea of the reusable filter because I am trying to be less wasteful everywhere I can be, and coffee filters (paper/toss away) are among the things I avoid buying. That said, the coffee pot seems to have some nice features, but seems a little cheaply made. The seams (on the back of the machine) are very visible on the machine, like they could open up at any time. Take away the fact that you can program it, and its just like any other ten dollar pot you can get at walmart, except this one is a bit more than 10. So all this combined I cant give more than two stars for this pot.
Does NOT come with the Gold tone REUSABLE filter!
