WOLF GOURMET Programmable Coffee Maker System with 10 Cup Thermal Carafe, Built-In Grounds Scale, Removable Reservoir, Red Knob, Stainless Steel (WGCM100S)

Given this was a big investment, and I was very unsure whether it was insane or logical, I did my research. This brewer comes with a hefty price tag but it does not disappoint in terms of cup quality. I am a long time French press coffee drinker and wanted to make the switch to something a bit quicker and less work. This fills the bill. The built in scale was the clincher. It takes all of the guesswork out of the perfect ratio of coffee to water for the best possible cup of coffee. It is super fast and very quiet. Just a couple of minutes for a 4 cup brew. I love that you can adjust the brew strength. I like my coffee on the bold side so this works well for that. The carafe is very high quality and keeps coffee hot for a long time with no annoying burning from a hot plate. I love that there is no hot plate. It is very easy to use and offers an "idiot proof" cup of coffee of superior taste (and I use 8'oclock coffee). The only downside I have found is that you cannot fill the water reservoir for smaller brews, you can ONLY fill for the amount of cups per brew. Not a deal breaker but something to keep in mind. It is very easy to remove it and fill it however. Another BIG plus is the coffee basket pulls out instead of having to load from the top. HUGE plus on the design. Is it worth the money? I think it is if you want a perfect cup of coffee without having to figure out the ratio and you are someone who is short on time. Also, this is an "invest once" kind of purchase, no going through cheaper coffee makers every few years. This one should last a long time. In terms of time saved, it is much faster than my French press ritual and makes an equally good cup of coffee. I love it.

Splurged on this coffee maker but got it on sale so it helped a bit. Don’t know why the negative reviews. I love it. Coffee made in under 4 minutes for 10 cups. Taste is amazing as u can customize with beans and adjust strength. Coffee stays smoking hot for way over 1.5hours (without warming up the pot by hot water). Easy to carry and fill water reservoir. Pot has large opening if I want to wash inside. The pour out of it is great. It’s not slow. It’s a normal pour. I realize not everyone can be made happy but common 🙄. I’d highly recommend this coffee maker. Especially knowing that they have great support and a warranty for 5 years! And it looks amazing to boot.

We have had this for 18 months and love it! Very easy to clean and our coffee never tasted better. The Wolf Gourmet post purchase support is amazing!

Had this for a couple of weeks. So far, the only 2 problems have been: 1) it didn't sit completely flat on the counter (and I tried different locations). I used double-stick tape to attach a piece of cardboard to one of the legs. This made it flat. 2) I had trouble trying to set the clock to 24 hour mode - it got into some dead end path. I had to back out and just use its default 12 hour AM/PM mode. That's okay. The pros: 1) It seems well made, 2) I like the detachable water container that is much better than my last coffee maker - trying to pour water into the top using the carafe was messy, 3) I like the accubrew mode - it's very precise in weighing the coffee. This makes the taste consistent. 4) The speed is pretty fast. 5) The stainless steel has a modern look and the red knobs are classic. 6) The wide mouth on the carafe makes it easy to clean. Although it's pricey, I think it is worth it. You are paying for the name, but it's also well-made.

I was very nervous paying this much for a coffee maker but it doesn’t disappoint!! Love everything about it!! Coffee is fast and piping hot! The carafe pours great not one drip! Looking forward to years of great coffee!
