…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.
☕ - The hot beverage that powers the world!
Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!
Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.
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.
