Ratio Eight Original Coffee Machine White / Walnut Reviews

4.7 Rating 103 Reviews
My brother-in-law and I were able to enjoy a couple of cups of coffee together before he had to go back home. We used the same coffee and the same quantity of coffee and water that we used during the rest of the week with my old coffeemaker and oh man what a difference! I have told people that drinking coffee from this new coffeemaker is like drinking velvet. The coffee is so much smoother, richer, and thicker. Congrats to you and the team on a beautiful design, but above all for an amazing coffeemaker. Best of luck and to a long success with this product and your company,

I've had my new ratio coffee pot for a couple of weeks now, and I *love* it! I love its uncomplicated design; I love the carafe feel and of course the coffee is smooth and perfect. It was well worth the wait - thanks for your perseverance in making the best coffee pot ever!

We finally received it. It is everything you said it would be and more. While the coffee is important the esthetics are outstanding and as some have said it is a "work of Art" to be displayed. My wife was lamenting the fact the coffee table in our den did not have an electrical outlet. I hope you are successful in your pursuit of the cork stopper as after watching your video again, the 8 really demands the cork vs the black rubber stopper. Please keep us updated on that front. I have one other thought, My wife thought you also had a great opportunity to think about Ratio Cups but I am sure you have already thought about that. Again, Mark you created a great product and the wait was well worth it. Please feel free to use us as a testimonial. Richard

Thanks to our Ratio, my wife and I now strongly prefer the pour-over method to all other types of coffee. What's remarkable about this machine is how consistently excellent the coffee comes out - smooth, rich, clear and just the right temperature. I'm no barista but I've learned that a key reason why the Ratio's coffee always tastes so good is the consistent temperature and the way the machine is able to somehow duplicate pouring the water in circles in an automated way. We're very happy with our Ratio and enjoy the simplicity of it. It's the equivalent of a self-driving car from Google or Tesla. Well done!

The ratio excels at its singular purpose of brewing amazing coffee. The coffee it produces surpasses that of any other machine I have used. Add to that it's one-button simplicity and the deal is sealed. There is no better coffee machine on the market. Simply wonderful.

Very much worth the wait! First off, the machine is absolutely beautiful and the attention to detail is the best of any purchase I've made. It is incredibly solid and to my eye, there is not one piece of this machine that was overlooked. The coffee is the best I have ever had, period. I have never been able to taste so much detail like I have when using the Ratio. Thank you for making such an amazing product.

Now that I've used my Ratio for a while, I thought I'd share my impressions. It's a great machine......very sculptural, great quality of construction, etc. Compared with my standard Technivorm, the brew is smoother, and clearly less bitter (I didn't think I was brewing bitter coffee, but by comparison, yes). Depth of flavor is wonderful. Kind of reminds me of the difference between Starbuck's espresso and a shot pulled at home by an afficionado, on a premium machine, using outstanding beans. I'm very happy with it overall. My only criticism is that it's noisy (a minor issue), and doesn't have a thermos carafe (coming, I know). All in all, the Ratio is a hit! Very worth the price, and even the long wait....

I have had it for a week now. To put it simply it is the best coffee I have ever made and among of the best I have tasted in my life. The Ratio Eight is a beautiful machine, it is everything I hoped for and more!
