Cons: tall, no backup battery for timer, no grinder incl.
Summary: One of the great advantages of a wedding is the registry and eventually the presents thereof. We just got married and also registered for essential items like coffee makers. The Krups was our favorite, and as it turned out so it was for 3 of the guests ... read more

Pros: Good tasting coffee every time
Cons: Only 10 cups, difficult to put lid on. Cheaply made.
Summary: After having used Mr Coffee for my last 3 makers and having lost the heating pad that keeps the coffee hot first on all 3 I decided to try a new brand and one that does not use a heating pad. The carafe on this Krups does a fair job of keeping the ... read more

Pros: Stainless steel Carafe won't break, keeps coffee hot. Easy to use. Good coffee.
Cons: Will leak if overfilled. Top is a bit tricky to line up to screw on.
Summary: I’ve had my Krups for about a year now. I bought it to replace a coffee-maker we got for signing up for Gevalia coffee, when I broke the glass liner in the carafe, and we couldn’t get a new one. I really wanted a coffee-maker that brews into a ... read more

Pros: Coffee is good but that might be because only very good coffee is used.
Cons: See numbers 1-6 above.
Summary: I bought this because it uses a carafe and we previously had a Krups pot which we liked. We don't love anything about this product. We have one like mentioned below. What do I not like about this? It is a poor, poor design for these six ... read more

Pros: Quiet, Quick, the carafe, turns off automatically
Cons: Unit is taller than most
Summary: The Krups Aroma Control Coffee Maker with the stainless steel carafe is by far the best coffee maker I have ever owned. It quickly and quietly brews a pot of 10 cups of coffee in about 5 minutes. The stainless steel carafe is easy to clean and ... read more

Pros: Attractive design, fantastic aroma release, easy to use/clean, solidly-built carafe; good heat retention.
Cons: Brew water not quite hot enough, poor design on carafe pouring.
Summary: I picked up this coffee maker at a thrift store here in town, but it was in new condition, so perhaps it was an unwanted or duplicate wedding gift. In any event, I liked the way it looked, so I thought I'd try it out. Krups did well with this machine ... read more

Pros: Stainless steel carafe, auto-timer.
Cons: Plastic lid and handle break/come loose easily. Water level indicator traps particles and accumulates residue.
Summary: I bought the Krups coffee maker because I had to replace the glass pot on my Braun coffee maker at least 3 times - it was delicate and cracked at the slightest tap, etc. I was also aware that replacement glass carafes were becoming scarce, and when I ... read more

Pros: Water level indicator;
Quiet brewing;
Quick brewing; and
Metal Carafe
Cons: May be too tall if you have low cabinets.
Summary: There is much more to good coffee than pouring hot water through ground coffee beans. If you drink coffee, if you need coffee, then you have to agree that life is much too short to suffer through bad coffee every morning. This Krups aroma control ... read more

Pros: Attractive Design, Carafe, Programmable Timer
Cons: Weak Flavor, Unpredictable Blockage That Stops Brewing
Summary: My previous coffee maker was a Krups and produced great coffee. After 10 years, I finally broke down and got a new one. I've been disappointed with this new coffee maker from the very first.
I am a fan of strong, rich coffee. I buy good ... read more

Pros: This machine keeps coffee hot and fresh for hours without loss of flavor.
Cons: Expensive, but worth it.
Summary: Using good coffee, most coffee makers produce good coffee. The Krups thermal pot, however, sets this appliance far above the rest, since it keeps you in fresh brew for 4-5 hours. With the timer activated, you can wake up to really good coffee first ... read more

Pros: Solidly made, unlike the 'cute' Italian units that I checked out.
Cons: None that come to mind.
Summary: I have had my Krups Aroma Control unit for about 3 years now. Very solid, well designed unit. (I'm an engineer!) My favorite feature of the system is the stainless-steel thermos-caraffe. You don't have to worry about breaking it -

Pros: Good Coffee - Not burnt
Cons: Cheap plastic handle that easily breaks.
Summary: Have had it for 2 years and use it every morning. As other reviewer have stated, occasionally the coffee doesn't drain from basket, but a cleaning usually resolves the issue. The frustrating part is the poor design of the carafe handle. As several

Pros: Makes good coffee
Cons: Not durable.
Summary: Although my Krups pot made very good coffee, the entire electrical system went down 2 years after purchase. This is an expensive coffeemaker that does not

Pros: Great looking, Great coffee, stays hot for quite a while.
Cons: The handle can come loose, but it's easily tightened.
Summary: I bought this machine after I saw that my mother had one...she has always had a obsession with buying coffee makers. It really turned out to be a great coffee maker. After about 2 years the handle started coming loose (I thinking it was from washing

Pros: Easy cleaning, durable carafe
Cons: The lid design when pouring
Summary: We bought this coffee maker 3 years ago and it's worked great. There was a time when we broke a carafe every 2-3 months on our granite counter. The carafes cost more to replace on average then the entire coffee maker. This one has been great. We've
