It makes good coffee

I got this for replacing a 16 year old Cuisinart coffee maker. So far this Oxo coffee maker has been doing a good job. The coffee does have slightly better flavor than my old coffee maker. It's easy to use.

Finally found the one

We were daily french press brewers for years. We wanted to shorten the prep/clean up time and also move away from the sludge filled last cup offered by the french press. First we tried a new Keurig, with the multiple water jets.

OXO Coffee Maker

I will preface this review by saying I haven't owned a drip coffee maker since the late 80's. Mostly because I don't like the concept of making coffee in a plastic machine, I've done glass pour over or stainless steel French press or percolated coffee for decades. Am I fussy about my coffee? Yes.

Great coffee maker, but pricey.

Warning, this is a critical review. I give this a 5 star because overall product merits an excellent rating. However, if I was to rate this based on value, I rate it a 3 star.I'm not a coffee snob. I like my cheap coffee. I've watched several coffee snob reviews on this product prior to purchase, and this is my take.
