Best Coffeemaker I've Ever Owned
Krups 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemakers

I was a little concerned about opening up shop away from home, 3 states away, and having to leave my tried and true Krups Pro Aroma behind. Granted, its an 8 year old model, but it made a great cup of coffee, and I had mastered the fairly simple interface for programming and setup. In my search, I read a LOT of reviews about the new Krups product family. Really not a surprise cause even the Pro Aroma had its many quirks, but still.....the coffee. So, after reading a bunch of bad reviews on Braun, Mr Coffee, Cuisinart, and Krups coffeemakers, I figured $60 was worth the risk to plunk down on this model.
My first impression when I opened the box was that the coffeemaker was solid and well constructed, but that the carafe was too light and thinly formed. But after two weeks of use I really cant find anything to complain about. Yes, the carafe is very light, but I like it. And it pours well with no drips. I haven't yet attempted to program the machine cause that's not a necessity for me, but hit the "ON" button and in about 5 minutes you have a fast, hot, and extraordinarily flavored pot of coffee. And this is honestly the best coffee I've ever had from this machine, even much better than my old Pro Aroma from the same manufacturer. |
Best Value For Espresso

I owned more than a few Krups drip coffee makers over the years, before moving on to espresso. I chose them based on back to back comparisons, and found them to be the best in their price range. I never compared them to the expensive Dutch Technivorm (now $235), however. When a new job found my wife in temporary housing, I had to get her a decent drip maker until our move is complete. This was the one I chose, and it has exceeded my expectations. It effortlessly makes flavorful, hot coffee. It is supremely ergonomic and simple to program and use. I can only assume that Krups has improved it since some of the reviews here were written. Programming is elementary, for those who want to awaken to hot coffee. (I roast my beans and so rarely choose to allow the ground coffee to sit overnight.) But once set, the program can be toggled on and off with a single push of a button.

| The carafe is very nicely made, and requires really sloppy (read impatient) technique to spill. Previous Krups carafes had a "flavor-enhancing" feature, in the form of a grid over the spout of the carafe, which is supposed to limit aroma escaping while brewing, but which made pouring without spilling a struggle. This one does not have that feature and, for me, works very well.
I find it a joy to use, and, at this price, an excellent buy. |
Krupps Coffeemaker Review - From A Coffee Lover
Best Krups Coffee Makers

| I bought this coffeemaker after experiencing the coffee produced by a Krupps maker at work. These units are reputed to do a much better job of heating the water to the correct temperature for the brewing process to release all the flavoring the coffee grounds. I have to admit that this unit really does the job well. It's 1100 watts of power makes a great cup. Frankly the interface for the alarm sound and for setting the clock and timer, etc. is a bit wonky, but no worse than the thousands of other devices like it on the market. A big plus is the built in water filter. Clean water makes all the difference in the world for a great cup of coffee. Beyond the performance, the unit itself is sturdy and well made, and is a nice clean design. I would definitely recommend this unit to anyone. |
