Summary: Old Reliable
Comment: When I replaced my Braun Coffeemaker with another "brand", I was very disappointed. I missed my HOT, flavorful cup of coffee that I always received with my Braun. I ended up giving away my replacement coffeemaker and went purchased another Braun. As always, a consistently great pot of coffee.

Summary: Satisfactory replacement
Comment: My husband broke the carafe on my 20+ year old Krups coffeemaker. I knew I'd never find another carafe, and I was right. We bought a cheap Braun and he promptly broke that carafe, too, and in the meantime, they stopped making that particular model. Then we bought a Mr Coffee...awful! Everything about it was horrid...basket filter (those stupid things never fit in the basket right and the maker did not come with a gold reuseable filter), major moisture build-up under the reservoir lid, coffee spilled when poured. I finally couldn't take it anymore and decided it would be worth the money just to get a coffeemaker with a cone filter.
I don't care about programming. Why would you do this if you'll be using freshly ground coffee beans? But if you're one of those people who *needs* to have coffee just to wake up, and can't quite get it together in the morning to make coffee, I guess that would be a great feature. I also don't care about the water filter. I use bottled water and buying white vinegar is waaay cheaper than buying those silly filters every two months or whatever, and it's more eco-friendly, too.
I'm very happy with this coffeemaker. The carafe does not drip when you pour your coffee. The coffee is burning hot, something the Mr Coffee coffeemaker was not capable of, apparently. The warmer keeps the coffee hot, but does not seem to cook it down too badly when left for an hour or so; i.e., the coffee still tastes pretty good and doesn't need to be cut with scissors when pouring. There is no build-up of moisture under the water reservoir lid as with the Mr Coffee coffeemaker. It's black (an important issue for me). And this baby uses a No. 4 cone filter.
The only issue I have is that the handle is glued to the carafe. Gone are the days when there was a metal band around the neck of the carafe with the handle securly fastened to it, thus preventing the handle from coming off. I'm just extra careful when I pick the carafe up and use paper towels so I can put my hand under the carafe. I'm not too keen on having it burn the living you-know out of me should the handle come off.
I definitely recommend this coffemaker. Buy two because I'm quite sure the company will quit making it soon (if they haven't already) and it seems increasingly hard to find a good, simple, inexpensive (relatively) coffeemaker without all the bells and whistles.

Summary: Great coffee maker
Comment: This was my second Braun coffeemaker. I was looking for a 12 cup model like my first machine, however that machine always made one cup less than the amount of water put into the machine. This model makes the exact amount stated on the water reservoir. Also, the filter isn't needed when you have good water. So far, no problems. My wife and I are very satisfied and would purchase this machine again.

Summary: Great Coffee
Comment: This is a replacement for my 6 yr. old Braun Coffemaker that still made excellent coffee.Wife said it was time to replace it because it looked its age!(hahaha) The Braun Coffeemaker is my coffeemaker of choice and in my opinion it makes better coffee than more expensive coffeemakers I have owned over the years and does it consistantly every time.

Wake up to freshly brewed coffee with this Braun KF590E Impressions Digital 10-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker. Not only does it provide a 24-hour timer for pre-set automatic brewing, but it also offers programmable automatic shutoff for setting the unit to turn off anywhere from 20 minutes to 4 hours after brewing. The coffeemaker's fast-brewing technology delivers hot, fully extracted and aromatic coffee. Removing the carafe pauses the brew cycle, which allows for pouring a cup midbrew. Its 54-ounce glass carafe provides a handy water-level indicator and a distinctive non-slip open-handle design for simple pouring. The unit's exclusive, filter basket-release button makes it simple to remove the basket and conveniently place it on the countertop for easy filling or cleaning. Other highlights include an LED digital clock and timer, a pilot light and preset brewing indicator, an integrated cord-storage compartment, and dishwasher-safe parts for quick cleanup. The unit comes with a permanent gold-tone filter and a Brita water filter, which prevents calcification, significantly reduces chlorine, and improves coffee flavor.
Dishwasher-safe parts Permanent gold-tone filter and Brita water filter included Dimensions - 14-1/8 X 7-1/2 X 13-2/7 1-year limited warranty
