GE 12-Cup Digital Coffee Maker - 169164

Pros: Attractive, nicely designed, clock keeps accurate time, carafe pours cleanly, programmable, pour interrupt
Cons: Brews very weak coffee, coffee not HOT, reusable lifetime filter worthless

First off, let me say that I LIVE for coffee.  I always spent my hard earned $$ on great quality imports (because taste does matter).  I invested in Kenyan AA and was overwhelmed by Jamaican Blue Mountain (as well as the cost, LOL), Ethiopian, ...

Pros: Convienent design. Reusable coffee filter. Alarm lets you know coffee is done.
Cons: VERY weak coffee. Coffee is not very hot.

This coffee pot has a nice design, nice digital display, but it is not a worthwhile purchase. It brews really weak coffee - it takes a TON of coffee to make good strong coffee in this coffee maker, even with the brew strength button pushed. The reusable coffee filter is nice and conveinant, as long as you wash it regularly. But, since my husband and I are coffee snobs, we just would not repurchase, because it makes coffee that tastes like water. I think I will go back to my reliable Mr. Coffee.
