Amazon Basics 5 Cup Drip Coffee Maker with Glass Coffee Pot (0.8 Qt), Auto Shut-off, Auto Pause, Removable Filter Basket, Matte Black

I ordered this coffee maker because I only had a Keurig, which makes just one cup at a time. I needed something that could brew multiple cups, mainly to use with my Ninja slushy maker for frappes. I didn’t need anything expensive or high-tech, and this coffee maker does exactly what I wanted. It brews more than one cup at a time without taking up much space. It’s very mini, compact, and lightweight — perfect if you’re not a heavy coffee drinker. The coffee brews properly and works just as it should. For the price, it’s a great value, and it even looks nice on the counter. Definitely recommended!

I got this coffee maker to replace my last Amazon Basics one that died of old age. Best price for a coffee pot. I don't want an appliance with a lot of buttons and controls. It brews the coffee quickly and is very easy to use. Perfect for this old timer.

Works very good I have used this daily for 4 months. No problem with it.

This small coffee maker is perfect for its purpose. I've usually made my lattes with a manual pour-over filter basket in a French press carafe. I froth the milk by microwaving 1/2 cup -2/3 cup in a large Pyrex measuring cup and using a whisk. (Our Keurig won't properly brew espresso grind -- too fine.) I wanted to try a small drip brewer with a cone-shaped filter basket for extracting the espresso and this works! I don't use the "reusable" screen filter, as those are a hot mess with espresso grounds. I use a paper filter in the cone-shaped plastic filter basket and this little brewer does get hot enough to work! I use a full scoop of espresso grind and 12oz of water (plus the milk froth) for a perfect 16oz+ latte. And, of course, the machine brews two-12oz cups of regular coffee, as it will take 24-25oz of water. The warming plate works fine. I would give this brewer 5 stars, but as others have said, it is flimsy. It really could use a little more rigidity -- it's very soft thin plastic. I'll guess mostly recycled plastic. But, again, it works great, fits under your cabinets (Mr Coffee is too tall) and this is easy to clean. We'll see how long it holds up. Meanwhile, for $20, go for it.

This coffee maker does not need the traditional filters it actually has a built-in filter. It’s very small so it would be good for a cup and a half of coffee maybe technically you can fill it up to the brim, but I don’t do that.- I would recommend this for a single household that wants a coffee maker- it was really inexpensive and so far I’ve had it for three days and it works great

Yes a coffee maker. Sometimes you get surprised. I am. First the quality of this coffee maker is amazing. Easy to use. Very easy to clean. Very well made. Easily compares too much more expensive coffee makers. 👍👍 Yes it is a coffee maker.

I've been using the Amazon Basics 5 Cup Drip Coffee Make daily for 3 weeks. It works fine but it's not quite what I hoped for. As others have mentioned the lid warps, mine started after just 3 days of use. For now it's not a functional issue as the lid still snaps into place. Being plastic I expect that will change eventually with more warpage and wear. The biggest disappointment is the shape of the basket and mesh filter, I expected standard round but they're cone shaped. The filter allows too much sludge so I've set it aside and use a #2 paper cone filter. The sludge may not be an issue with a coarser grind of coffee when using the mesh filter, mine is currently a fine grind.

Perfect for me. I brew 4 cups (=2 mugs) every morning. Made better, more robust flavored coffee than similar makers with basket style filters (I believe cone filters are best.) It' s only flaw for me is the power switch. I plug the power cord into a light timer (10-15 minutes before I get up) so that my first thing to do in the morning is get my 1st cup of coffee). However, this is not a toggle switch. After setting it up, I pressed the power switch. The next morning, no response. I had to press the power switch for it to start. (The power switch responds to immediate-not delayed power.) This was my only disappointment. BUT the coffee was great! If they made it with an on/off-toggle switch I would buy it again. (Sorry, returning it.)

Basic, cheaply made but works fine and is way better than the more solid Cuisinart it replaced which never poured worth a darn.

Ideal for small spaces and a couple good cips of coffee. Fairly quick brewing.

Love it, still have it a year later. Easy to use and wash.

Great

This works beautifully! Takes approximately 5 minutes to brew a batch of coffee. Highly recommended!
