aarke Drip Coffee Maker with 42oz Glass Carafe, Stainless Steel | Electric Drip Brewer, Automatic Drip-stop, Brews Full Pot in Under 6 Minutes, SCA Certified

This coffee maker exceeded my expectations. While I did not time the duration to brew a full pot, I believe it was actually less than the six minutes I read somewhere as the amount of time it would take. The machine appears sleek and minimalist which I appreciate, but the best part is how simple it is to operate. It brews a delicious cup of coffee and the hot plate keeps the coffee hot versus my manual pour over pot. The carafe and basket are incredibly easy to clean and the set up took 2 minutes - the packaging and simplistic nature of the machine makes set up and use a breeze. I will be recommending this to friends, and I’ve already given away my manual pour over as this is quicker and easier to use. The machine is sturdy and with the stainless steel and minimalist design the only thing that could break would be the glass carafe - and that would take user error. Definitely a great value for the cost. This functions as a coffee maker should - no fuss, just a good cup of coffee. Lastly, given how fast it brews, there is no need for a timer to auto brew since you can wake up press the button drink a glass of water and then your coffee is ready. Also while some of the reviews complain there are plastic components, show me a coffee maker that doesn’t (excluding a French press since anyone buying this is clearly looking for an automatic machine). There is no more plastic on this machine then any of the other similar products on the market. If you want an automatically brewed quality cup of coffee, then this is the machine to invest in.

There's nothing quite like a good cup of coffee to start the day, and my new coffee maker has elevated that experience completely. It's a sleek machine that looks great on the counter. I was worried there'd be a learning curve, but it was straightforward from the first brew.The coffee it makes is consistently excellent. The flavor is rich and full-bodied, and the temperature is perfect—hot enough to enjoy slowly without scalding. I've been experimenting with different beans, and I'm impressed by how it brings out the unique notes in each blend.The build quality feels solid, and it's easy to clean, which is a huge plus. The carafe is well-designed and doesn't drip, which is something I've struggled with in the past. Honestly, it's more than just a coffee maker; it's become an essential part of my morning routine. I highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates a great cup of coffee without any fuss.

This is the worst electric coffee maker I have ever owned. Don’t waste your money. It never gives the amount of coffee for the amount of water put in. There is always one cup of water left that never makes it to the brewing basket.Today the metal handle broke off. The turn on button sometimes goes off in the middle of brewing coffee.

I LOVE it - but super pricey -my husband bought it for me - $400 for a coffee maker outrageous- i was going to send it back but he wouldn't let me because he knows how much i love coffee - it makes a nice hot cup of coffee - holds heat - makes a hotter cup of coffee than my old one - beautiful looking - very easy to use - no timer or clock - just simple - it looks great - i have to make 2 pots during the day to curb my coffee habit because the coffee pot is small and only makes 2 big mugs full at one time - i feel like a spoiled person lol - but makes great coffee

The coffee maker itself works quite well and you can taste the difference in the quality of the brew. However, the fragility of the item is a major negative, as the metal handle for the filter broke off while washing it less than three months after purchase. The glass pot also feels low quality as well, as if it may break from routine maintenance or an errant cotton ball gently glancing it. While the performance is great, the build simply isn't up to snuff, justifying 2 stars.

Our old coffee maker finally died and we decided to upgrade our coffee maker. After tons of research we decided on the aarke machine. It was definitely the right choice! It was on the pricier side but we decided to go for it anyway and I have no regrets! It brews an amazing pot. It really does taste like pour over! We also decided to upgrade to the aarke grinder and we have just loved how well they work together. The design is clean and elegant and looks really beautiful in our kitchen!

Pros: Well made.Looks great.Makes great coffee.Minimal to no microplastic exposure.Cons : very expensiveWarming plate lasts 40 min on, then you have to turn it on again for an additional 40 minutes.

I love this coffee maker. Everybody compliments the design but more importantly, the taste of the coffee. It’s tastes So much better than what the instant K cup type coffee makers produce. Also, I had an issue and customer support was fantastic in their assist. I’m a big fan. Thanks.

Wish we knew about the sooner. Only critique is that now we can't go back

coffee isn't that hot
