Title: Does not hold 4 cups!
Review: I bought this for everyday use because I crochet and knit and have cats. Once I get settled on the couch to do my needlework, the cats curl up around me and make getting up to replenish my coffee cup difficult. The carafe does keep my coffee hot for the short time it takes to drink a carafe full. The description says "4-Cup Carafe", but it evidently means "4 5-oz. cups" because it only holds 20 oz. (2 1/2 cups.) If you want a small carafe, this one is nice, but it is a little too small for me.UPDATE: I have discovered that there is a design flaw in the lid. You depress the lever to pour your coffee and the coffee can go into the lid. I discovered this while rinsing the lid - when I depressed the lever, coffee came out!!! It wouldn't be a problem if all the liquid rinsed out at once, but I have to shake the lid while depressing the lever repeatedly and, sometimes, there is still liquid in the lid (I can hear it.) This makes me worry about mold inside the lid.
Is the review positive or negative?
