CU give this product a good review so I bought it - I'm now doubtful about how Consumer Reports evalutes products. It does make a good cup of coffee but the overall design leaves a lot to be desired. The lid of the coffee maker is poorly designed - thin with fins that protrude. It is very uncomfortable, almost painful, to open and close. If you close it too tight you'll need to get a towel to protect your hand from the fins in order to open it. If you don't "perfectly" line up the carafe when brewing you'll come back to a countertop full of coffee - we're VERY careful now to be sure it's just right. In order to add coffee you have to move the drip arm out of the way and then back again after you fill the water - not a big deal but another annoyance. It comes with a separate cover that you must put on the carafe to keep the coffee hot - something else to clutter your counter. It's also too easy to accidentally push the time buttons and realize too late that your coffee didn't get made the next morning because the time was off. I really don't feel that, considering all the problems with this machine, that the coffee was that much better to deal with all these quirks.Get more detail about Zojirushi EC-BD15 Fresh Brew Thermal Carafe Coffee Maker.
