Pros: -Different Grind settings -Different strengths of coffee -Makes great coffee confirmed by multiple family members -Easy to use (but terrible instructions manual) - changeable water filter - Easy to switch coffee from usual brand to different brand with a auto-grind shut off. -Easy to clean

Cons: - Reservoir for water is narrow and difficult to pour water in - Coffee Pot dribbles water/coffee if you don't pour at the right angle - feels as though coffee goes colder quicker compared to previous coffee maker. Probably should use insulated cups if you like your coffee always hot. This might be due to the settings for making the coffee.

Overall Review: Would have been a 5 star if not for cons. Overall it makes a great cup of coffee for average coffee drinkers for a decent price. Its very easy to use once you interpret the instructions manual.
