Makes smooth coffee and is easy to use and clean. A good alternative to a french press
I was a habitual user of a french press/cafetiere. I changed to a pur over coffee maker because I found that I was getting too many coffee grounds in the coffee and as I get older these don't always agree with me.I drink coffee out of a mug and not a cup and if I want two mugs of coffee I need an 18 - 20 oz jug. This doesn't seem to be a common size and so I was glad to find this Bean envy unit.The jug is borosilicate and will not break if near boiling water is put into it. The filter and filter carrier are stainless steel. The quality is good and the silicone pad on the bottom can be removed for dishwashing.For a given coffee bean and roast the coffee is smoother than it would be from my cafetiere. The filtering is effective but not perfect. A filter paper would be better but for the wat I drink coffee the pour over filter works very well. I'm enjoying the coffee ;-)Is it perfect? Not quite. I wish I knew if I could put the filter assembly in the dishwasher. I always hand wash it but a zap in a dishwasher once in a while would be nice. The quality of the jug is very good. I just wish this was supplied with a "lid" so that I could keep the coffee in the pot warm so that the second mug is hot. Leaving the jug open cools the coffee too much. Putting the filter assembly back on is a bodge which works but I think I'm going to end up cutting a "cork" to size to supply a lid.In the end I have no real complaints. It's good quality, makes good coffee and is easy to use and clean: highly recommended.

Incredible coffee maker, Incredible customer service
There is very little not to love about this coffee maker and I am now writing this review after using it almost every single day since June 2020.CleaningVery easy to clean as the glass is super high quality and a simple hand wash with soapy water works really well for normal use. Even after months and months and months of use their was no staining on the inside or fading of the measurement marksThe filter is similarly easy to clean and we ran ours through the dishwasher every third or fourth use with no issues and had no clogging or slowing of pour through. The filter also has shown zero sign of rust with very little maintenance aside from rinsing it out with warm water and air drying when done.Coffee QualityI found that using about 4-5 scoops with the included scooper made a very nice and not too strong brew and when filled past the top mark would often yield several cups. Often when brewing for me and my partner we would pour over with this amount of coffee until it reaches the filter and then finish the pour while holding the filter above the rising coffee. The filter added no taste and with the included silicon base it often stayed quite warm for about an hour while siting out.WarrantyThe warranty was very easy to use as we found out when the glass was unfortunately damaged and we reached out via email. They very quickly shipped out a replacement unit at no cost to us with no questions asked and were very friendly when contacted via email.ComplaintsDon't really have any aside from perhaps the handle on the filter being a bit small? Might just be that I have hands on the larger side.Otherwise no real issues in any other aspect of use or care.Overall would definitely recommend this if you are looking for a solid, dependable and very nice looking pour over kit.

Great Coffee Maker
This was purchased to replace an automatic coffee maker. I was concerned about all the plastics and it seemed it over brewed the coffee. This has changed my coffee experience. I couldn't believe how easy it is to use and clean. The coffee tastes MUCH BETTER! I will never go back to an automatic coffee maker. Highly recommend for true coffee lovers.

Finally. Found My Perfect Cup.
I've been experimenting with different types of coffee lately. I was really into cold brew, but it was missing something. The taste was good cold, but heated it just didn't do it for me. I was missing that punch. I saw a video on pour overs and thought maybe this is it? Where have you been all my life?I started measuring the temp of my coffee maker, and realized how lackluster it was.I purchased this filter and carafe set with an electric tea kettle. It starts boiling, I take it off and wait till the boil stops. Then I pour it into my coffee grounds to bloom them for about 30 seconds. Don't cheat yourself out of the smell if it. Heavenly. It's no joke. It truly makes a difference if you bloom, and so does this filter. Then I just fill up the cone with water, stir it a bit and there ya'have it. It makes an amazing cup of coffee. You can make up 20 ounces if you like.It's very easy to clean. Don't leave coffee grounds in to dry though as it stains. I do not put this in the dishwasher. I like the rubber bottom if the carafe.I'll keep an eye on the filter, but it looks sturdy.I think this is a good first time pour over start out.

Great but with a niggling fault
A functional product that is easy to use and clean. Makes good coffee and comes up sparkling in the dishwasher.One small point is that the little silicon tab on the filter comes off easily and could get lost. Indeed, this happened to the friend who recommended the product. I have to be very careful with mine. This is why I cannot give the product the five star rating which it would otherwise deserve.
