A serious kitchen appliance/status symbol, like the Kitchen-Aid stand mixer, you can tell when something is offered in 15 vibrant colors that it's popular for a reason; it delivers as promised. Adjust to its slightly-awkward launch pad vernacular and you'll be rewarded with a pot of consistently crafted java strained for you in about 2 mins. Doesn't take up that much counter space with a 14"x14"x7" footprint. I was skeptical of performance because it isn't exactly a tech wizard utilizing the ol' standard drip method, but if you follow the recommended dose of grinds/serving for full-on flavor, you might be able to rewrite the Constitution over a weekend. Or what have you.
There are two secrets to how it excels: heating core element and saturation capability. Sure the price is steep and there are some cheapy looking parts compared to the more solid base/tower - but if you're careful with it, it's a high quality hand-assembled item (Netherlands) that should last a while + customer support and a 5 year warranty - so not too shabby. Daily care is discarding your filter and a quick rinse of the hopper and carafe, done. You use #4 paper filters - they recommend white, non-bleached for best taste. They also recommend a descaling cleaning agent every 100 brews (3.5 months of daily use) to keep the heating element at peak. An aesthetic downside can be the thick gauge electrical cord that sticks out and wraps around from the side of the base, which of course, isn't shown in pictures. This could be major or minor, for us it was an easy oversight given the brew quality. Eventually it just disappeared.
We had a trusty perk pot forever (efficient, fast, good brew) that lost its magic due to age and I wanted a quality upgrade, no K-cups, no grinding mess or noise, no crazy digital menu, but the best brew out there without going commercial grade - and we're happy caffeinated campers. As far as quality appliances, I would rate it alongside our Breville toaster oven, which we've had for about 6 years, still running like a champ and cranking out french bread pizzas every weekend way past midnight. Hey, if you don't like your Darth Vader Technivorm after you try it, clean it up nicely, repack carefully and send it back. But I doubt that will happen.
