There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
In one picture, note how small this coffee maker (on the right) is compared to another fairly small ("10 cup") coffee maker (on the left). The back edge of both coffee makers are even with each other; i.e., the front-to-back dimension of this (Amazon Basics) coffee maker is small: only 8 inches. The width is 7-1/2 inches, not counting room for the carafe handle. Height is 10-1/2 inches. A total of 17-1/2 inches clearance, measured from the countertop, is needed to open the lid; that's almost the front-to-back dimension plus the height with the lid closed, because the lid is the entire top surface of the coffee maker.
The other picture shows the re-usable plastic filter, the filter basket, and the carafe, all of which are easy to remove and clean. The filter and filter basket geometry prevent small coffee granules from getting into the carafe.
Reviews for other coffee makers warned about the water-fill reservoir being on the left, and therefore awkward for a right-handed person. This coffee maker can be filled from either side, because the opening for the reservoir is across the entire back, when the lid is open. Therefore, this is fine for me as a right-handed person and should be equally fine for a left-handed person.
Time to brew takes about six to seven minutes. The feature that allows you to take a cup during brewing works. When doing so, the lid may pop up, but then it's just a matter of pressing the lid down again. I read a one-star review where the user states, "Now ... the coffee never flows into the pot." If this happens to you, try firmly pressing down the lid again to snap the lid into place.
Note on "cups": like all coffee makers in my experience, "cup" is the traditional size of a "cup of coffee," which is about 5 ounces. This is different from an "eight-ounce cup." Therefore, 24 ounces, which you might think of as three cups (or as two cups of coffee if you have a large coffee mug) almost fills this coffee maker, and is 5 "cups" in all coffee makers in my experience. Therefore, this "5-cup" coffee maker is the perfect size for me for "two large cups" of coffee in the morning. As a one-star review states, "When your pour water into the machine at the level of 4, the amount you get when the coffee that pours out is at the lowest mark of a 2"; i.e., about 4x5 ounces poured in will produce about two 8- or 9- ounce cups of coffee.
I read a one-star review that states, "the coffee grinds get thru." The plastic filter is much thinner than my previous coffee maker's gold-plated filter. Be gentle with the filter and just rinse it.
I read a one-star review that states, "It's impossible to obtain the strength of coffee that I want." Don't overfill the filter. For strong coffee, try grinding the coffee beans finer, or if you buy ground coffee, ask to have the beans ground finer. I grind my own coffee beans, but I've noticed that Starbucks always ask customers who request grinding how fine to grind.
I read a one-star review where cold water was poured into the coffee maker while the coffee maker was hot. Don't do this. This damaged my previous coffee maker and will likely destroy this one. If you want more than 5 cups of coffee, then I recommend pouring more water in during brewing, or waiting for the coffee maker to cool, or perhaps pouring in hot water.
I have used this coffee maker for only a couple of days, so I can't comment on its reliability.

Since this has a physical switch, you can set this up with smart plug & alexa or google home. You just keep the switch on, and use the plug to turn it on or off, schedule it, whatever you want which is awesome.
It's a simple coffee maker, does its job. Coffee tastes same compared to pour-over method. Make sure to run 3 full cycles with just water to clean out the plastic smell before use. Reusable filter is super easy to clean, just run some water over it. It's a breatheable-mesh type (better), not the steel wire-mesh. Has heating pad to keep coffee warm once it's made.
Also has 1 year amazon basics warranty which weighed into my decision, coffee makers are so hard to buy, too many options and too many problems.
It has a discreet / modern design that I like, nicely sized for small kitchen. I really wish it had a 12-cup version of it.

Because of the feature that allows you to pour a cup midbrew, you do have to press on the lid slightly for it to "lock" in. It's not a crazy amount of force but you don't just flop the lid down either (I'm talking about the machine, not the carafe). I can't imagine this would cause the catastrophic of spill over I've seen in other reviews but wanted to mention it.
Makes about 2 large cups of coffee, which is a perfect amount for me and my partner who is on a different shift. I make my pot in the AM and they make a pot in the PM.

In conclusion, the Amazon Basics 5 Cup Coffee Maker with Glass Carafe in Black is a reliable, user-friendly, and stylish addition to any coffee lover's kitchen. Whether for personal use or small gatherings, it consistently delivers a satisfying cup of coffee.
BUT THE BEST PART is the simple switch. You can leave it set to ON permanently when you plug the coffee maker into your Alexa (or other) Smart Switch. Set it up the night before, and when you wake up, tell Alexa to "turn on the coffee" and it's hot and fresh and ready for you. No need to fiddle with those little LCD timers that need to be reset if the power is removed. Your smart switch keeps it's connection and your coffee is made when you want it! If you're nerdy (moi?) you can set up a route and it will start any time you set it.
But I just tell it to turn on, and I always have a hot, fresh cup of coffee.
As Dr Einstein said, "simple is best" and I think he liked his coffee fresh. He would have loved this machine!
