KRUPS Newer Model Drip Coffee Maker, 10-Cup Digital, Black & Stainless Steel

This Krups 10-cup "Simply Brew" coffee maker is perfect for me! I don't need any digital settings so I find the simple on-off toggle switch and keep hot function just right for my use. It is the right size for storage in the kitchen corner appliance "garage" to keep counter space clear when not in use. It brews up a few cups of coffee in short time and easily, making it a good value for the money. Handle the carafe very gently and you will have use of it for some time.

I love this coffee pot! I just bought my second only because the original one was getting old and dirty. The second one I bought is actually better than the first! This one has a better pouring spout in the carafe and the lid stays up better than the first one did. I live alone and this coffee pot allows me to brew the exact amount of coffee that I drink in one day. I fill two mugs from this one little compact pot. The coffee tastes great from it and it hardly takes up any space on the counter top. It looks great sitting there too! I really love this coffee pot and can not really imagine using any other one after using this one. It is perfect for me. I will say that I do not use the reusable filter that came with it only to make clean-up easier since I do not have a garbage disposal I use the cone filters and I feel they fit in the basket just right.

I opted for the Krupps based on reviews and it was 1/3 the price of my previous brewer. The Krupps brewer checked most of the boxes for my preferences in a brewer.Pros:Brewing water is the proper temp.Brewing water fully saturates the grounds, releasing maximum flavor.Brewing time is appropriate, to accomplish the above.Hot plate stays warm for 60 minutes. Coffee stays a drinkable temp for another 15-20 minutes.Pause and pour.Reusable filter.Auto shut-off.Stylish and compact.Low price.Good quality.Krupps.Cons:The flip side of not having to buy filters is having to clean a reusable filter.The rear hinged lid stands vertical when open, and tends to crowd the water basin opening.No bells and whistles. (clock, auto-start, etc.)After using this product for a while I am adding a couple of comments. More of an annoyance than a Con.- The auto-shut off timer is set for one hour. This is not enough time for me personally. My fix is to shut the unit off as I am pouring my second cup (about 30 min from start) then turning it back on. This seems to reset the timer giving me about 1.5 hours of hot coffee.- The last cup of coffee will always have some very fine coffee grounds in it. I've adjusted my grinder to a courser grind which helped a little but the finest of grounds still sneak through. Paper filters may end up becoming the alternative.Overall, pleasantly pleased.

Smaller coffee maker that is easy to use and does not cost a lot. It makes a good cup of coffee. I bought this to replace my 30 year old Krups that recently stopped working. I prefer the taste of drip coffee over all the pod ones.

Nice size, easy to use and clean, but filter basket is small if you like strong coffee. I generally use about two scoops of fresh ground coffee per cup, and the most the basket seems able to hold is about five scoops. If more than that is used, when the grounds swell up they touch the top where the water comes out and this makes for uneven distribution, resulting in weak coffee. I tried four times, with different amounts of both coffee and water, and could not get a strong brew unless I brewed only a half-pot.No other problems were observed -- looks like a good little coffee maker, but if you like stronger coffee this may not be the one for you.

This is really a personal size coffee maker. Its footprint is about half a sheet of notebook paper. Krups is a solid well-known brand. In Europe a cup is 6oz. This coffee maker is marked to hold 32 oz of water to produce 30 oz of piping hot coffee. 2 oz of water is lost by soaking through the coffee grounds. It leaves plenty room for adding sugar, cream or that Starbucks effect in my 32 oz tumbler that keeps it hot all day. It’s well made and has nice looking stainless steel and black decor. The carafe is glass and pours better than our bigger one. It has a removable filter cup that holds a removable permanent filter with its own cute little handles. It’s not made to easily use #2 paper filters. I’ll buy a 2nd permanent filter now before I really need it. The whole backside of the coffee maker is the water reservoir. Everything is designed for quick, easy use and clean-up except the cord is 2 feet long and not removable.I can travel with this little one. Put it in my office. It makes a nice gift. Perfect for dorm rooms, tiny kitchens, or 1-2 people. I can share a generous 16 oz with someone and have one myself. I added a little hand-cranked coffee grinder. It has 6 grind settings. 2 fills grinds all the coffee needed and takes a minute to do both. We have an electric grinder. It’s loud and not something you want to hear in early morning. With 2 lbs of coffee beans I put it all in a small carryon luggage duffle bag. The best part is I make great tasting coffee or tea anywhere I want without disturbing anyone and it’s so much cheaper. No more gas station or fast food coffee for me.UPDATE: I just want to say I have none of the problems others have reported. No drips, spills, or overflows. The filter and filter cup both snap in to stay without forcing or relying on the lid. Water reservoir openings are large and can fill from left or right side. It’s all one area. This Krups doesn’t auto turnoff but the warming plate will shutoff after 1 hour. It has auto pause for a quick pour. But I’ve never had a time when I can’t wait for a pot to finish. This one is only 30oz. I think some complaints didn’t get genuine Krups. This one has real metal and quality plastic parts where shown. Lookalikes are a very bad problem worldwide. Premium brands get nailed by bad reviews because customers think their product is genuine and don’t question it. We have a Cuisinart at home with all the features. Just like cable TV, we use only 4 all the time. Hope this update adds comparison.

Bought it in July 2021, use it daily, and it still works great.Brews well, making truly hot coffee.Needs a break-in period of approx 7-10 uses to cook off the plasticizer smell.I'd buy it, or its 12 cup big brother, again.
