Poor design
The coffee pot was great when new but not even a year old and all the trim started to tarnish. Could not get a replacement. I was told trim was not covered under warranty.

A True Game-Changer for Coffee Lovers
A True Game-Changer for Coffee Lovers – Café™ Specialty Drip Coffee Maker As someone who takes coffee seriously, I can confidently say the Café™ Specialty Drip Coffee Maker has completely redefined my morning routine. From its sleek, modern aesthetic to its exceptional brewing precision, every aspect of this machine screams craftsmanship and quality. What sets this coffee maker apart is its SCA (Specialty Coffee Association) certification, meaning it meets the highest standards for home brewing. The customizable brew strength, temperature control, and even altitude calibration ensure that every cup is balanced, flavorful, and never bitter—tailored to your exact taste preferences. The WiFi-enabled smart controls are a surprising but incredibly useful feature. I can start brewing from my phone while I’m still in bed, and the built-in voice compatibility (Alexa/Google) adds even more convenience. The thermal carafe is also a huge win—no hot plate needed, and it keeps coffee hot for hours without compromising flavor. And cleanup? Practically effortless thanks to the thoughtfully designed water reservoir and reusable filter options. Whether you’re a daily drinker or a weekend connoisseur, this is a top-tier machine that genuinely elevates your coffee experience. It’s not just a coffee maker—it’s a statement piece that delivers café-quality results from the comfort of your home. Highly recommend. Worth every penny.

Great Coffee Maker
I love coffee and I absolutely love Cafe Specialty Drip Coffee Maker. My children got it for me for Mother's Day and I will say I wasn't sure at first if I was going to like it, as I have always used Cuisinart coffee makers. I am very very happy with my Cafe Specialty Drip Coffee Maker it makes the perfect cup of coffee every time and the carafe keeps it warm for a couple of hours.

Looks Great but Doesn't Last
This is our second CAFE drip coffee maker. The 1st one stopped working altogether within 14 months. Luckily Cafe replaced the entire unit at no cost to us even though it was out of warranty. We have had the second one for about 17 months and the handle on the carafe has split and is coming unattached at the top and the copper coating bubbling and coming off. Looks great and makes fine coffee but doesn't last.

Handle Peeled Off
All good except the "copper" finish on the pot handle keeps peeling off. I've had one replace under warranty, but the replacement unit also peeled off. I do not abuse the product and I've never put it in the dishwasher. I would've thrown it away without looking back if it was not this expensive. (yes, this is the most expensive coffee maker I've ever owned).

Great features!!!
I just made my first coffee, it was delicious. Can't get over the features. It was hot enough for my taste. I have been looking for a machine that actually performs like it should. I love my coffee hot, not warm. This is a keeper. Café line is it.

Great coffee, poor design
Reviewed after about 3 years of owning it: as so many have noted, the handle of the carafe has gradually been chipping off. A bit of a nuisance until today, when a piece of metallic actually got lodged in my husband’s finger that I had to remove with tweezers. The inside also doesn’t appear to be waterproof and there’s been water stuck inside the carafe that we haven’t been able to remove for who knows how long — even after keeping it upside down for days. The coffee itself is very good and it’s convenient to program it from the phone, but the durability leaves a lot to be desired. Would not purchase again at the current price point.
