Best coffee maker I’ve had.1- the shape fits better in countertop corners or more flush to a flat wall so I have more counter space and it doesn’t stick out so much being an eye sore2- the coffee grind area opens side ways rather than top, so I don’t have to pull it out from under the top cabinets every time I need to fill friends3- it’s quiet !4- perfect set of features that are super simple and fast to use5- the temperature is hot and the boldness is really perfect for meLove this coffee maker !
