we bought this when we got married (or maybe it was a wedding present?) and used it for a few years until i got wise to the benefits of a french press. they don't take up as much room on the counter and the don't need coffee filters and they look so much more sophisticated. possibly, they make better coffee too, but i'm no connoisseur. the one bad thing is that they only make a few cups of java at a time, so, we kept this coffee maker with the idea that if we ever hosted a brunch or anything and needed greater volumes of coffee, this would come in handy. this past weekend, we hosted a brunch and i asked my husband if he wanted to use the big coffee maker and he said, "no, it's crappy. plus, now we have two french presses" (thanks to my lovely sister who gave us a camping press for christmas that came with an insulating sleeve.) so, i've been given the green light and the coffee maker is out, out, out!
