    Perfect Little Coffee Maker!

    This small 4‑cup coffee pot has zero weird odor and works great for quick morning brews. The water capacity is just right for one or two people, and it’s super easy to use — fill, click, done. The color looks nice on my counter, and it brews fast without taking up much space.

    Elite Gourmet EHC4128 Automa

    This little coffee maker works surprisingly well for the price. It’s compact, easy to use, and perfect for making a couple cups of coffee without wasting a full pot. The Pause N Serve feature is convenient when you want a quick cup before brewing finishes, and the reusable filter saves money on paper filters.

    Terrific small coffeemaker at a great price

    I was very pleasantly surprised with this coffee maker. This is not a paid review. The Keurig at work died and I decided I didn’t want to deal with the K cups anymore. This is the best small coffee maker I’ve ever had. The carafe pours smoothly.

  • Sporster Verified purchase ★★★★☆

    Elite Gourmet with reusable brew basket is a flop

    This is an improvement of the original Mr. Coffee Maker I'm replacing, only because the carafe chipped. It held up for 23 years. Pros: 1) It brews relatively quickly, and the coffee brews at approximately 165 degrees. Pretty standard for 90% of all coffee makers. 2) The footprint is small for tight kitchen counters.
