I bought a filter coffee machine, the one with a thermos carafe. It’s a great product, it really offers you lots of features for your money - all of them cool and working. I went through lot of machines from different brands before and some of them in this price category are a terrible rip -off but with Melitta - you can expect great quality of a German design. It works and you really feel like the machine is worth its price. Of course, everyone likes a different coffee, but if you like pour over technique/filter coffee - this is the product. You can choose how strong you want it, you can program it the night before, and it stays hot even after 3 hours ! Best machine I’ve ever had.
