Review title: Good...not GREAT...but good....
Product review: Bought the stainless steel+black version, mainly on the advice of Consumer Reports which rated this pot top. Looks great with our other stainless appliances. I would have to agree with other reviewers that the water-pouring area is a bit small - especially if you are bleary-eyed in the morning. The water-pouring area is only about an inch wide and maybe a couple inches long. Compared to my old Mr. Coffee, which was about 6 inches by 4 inches, at least. One feature that does not seem to be mentioned often is the "auto clean" feature, where the coffee maker must have some sensor that determines when the calcification buildup gets too thick. I have not had occasion to see it work yet, but it is a cool feature. I also like the "gold tone filter" - makes for filter conservation (not GOLD, just GOLD TONE - what is that all about?). All that said - this machine makes a decent cup of coffee.
