Wonderful design -- easy to make the coffee in the morning. comes out steaming hot

Great design.

and I love the push dispense button design.

If you are looking for a cheap, well made, well designed carafe-less coffee maker, I highly recommend the Brewstation Summit Ultra

I like this style, where you push the button to get coffee, but it is a bad design

just not as well designed.

I like the design where I dispense directly into my mug.

Awkward design especially for filling the water station.

Really solid coffee maker with a sleek design and a relatively intuitive interface.

I thought this design would be easier without a glass carafe to worry about, but I was wrong

The design of this is so flawed, you’ll find the flow of the pour decreasing... and decreasing... and decreasing, all the while cleaning it as it instructs you to do

Too bad, nice sleep clean design.

It makes coffee fine, however it is flimsy and cheaply designed

The only criticism I have is that it can be a little messy when dispensing the brew as the design is not very user friendly

We really enjoy the carafe-less design and have had several other models over the years

I also like the basket and pot design.

There are so many design flaws and serious hazards with this unit

Whoever designed this thing has never made more than one pot of coffee, get ready with the ove-gloves and two towels, it's hot and will drip condensate water all over the floor, very poor design and it sure doesn't make 12 cups of coffee, I drink two normal size cups and the guage is showing that it's only half full.....VERY BIG DISAPPOINTMENT .....:-(

Replaced older model which the dispenser button broke on...hoping for better design on this one.

just can't beat this coffee maker - great price, awesome design, hot delicious coffee

, the design of this particular model adds a bit of stupidity--to what should be a better design, not worse.

The newer design is much sleeker and I like being able to eye the water tank, which the new design offers

Who is telling you that this is a good design?

It's easy to use and to clean, and we love the carafe-free design

Not surprising since the Hamilton Beach as well as all the other brands are designed in a third world country where the engineers probably ride a donkey to work, probably don't have electricity in their homes, probably don't have a bathroom in their homes, and may have never heard of coffee

Very well-designed.

They are less expensive, well designed and work great

I love the design but the execution makes me think the product testing/QA was skipped.

From the sleek design to the ease of operating this coffee maker is the greatest

Design of this is total failure

Overall, it's an excellent design (my teenage son pronounced it "

It was getting old and I wanted something with a sleeker design.

Pros: coffee is very hot, it has 1-4 hours for keep warm setting, the design on top is a little better, though you can't leave it underneath a cupboard to fill it

It is very convenient and well designed for ease of use and cleaning

I love the design of this coffee maker; it is very easy to use and clean

It has a very sleek design, it's affordable, and it has the ability to do regular coffee as well as iced coffee

Too bad, nice sleep clean design.

Very poor design

this was to replacing a previous model, the older model was a better design that was easier to use during filling and dispensing.it does make good coffee.

Good so far, Love the design

Nothing wrong with the pot, just the overall design.

Very well designed, easy clean, great brew & features

This new design with the open water tank is perfect.

Smart design for sure.

Overall, a really good product as far as design.

It works great and I love the design.

This is a very good coffee maker for the money and is attractive and well designed.

Also, the design looks a lot nicer as it's sleeker looking and has more stainless steel accents on

The design is "loose" with little weird edges and seams that don't fit right

It is very well designed

First batch went over the top, bad design :( I will try for two weeks and give follow up

My previous unit was made by Kitchen Aid, I suffered through a year and a half of abuse with that poorly designed machine

Nice design idea, but leaks from the bottom after only 1 year

While the coffee does brew to near perfection (that's per my wife), the design of this product is relatively poor.

The previous model was a better design.

We just decided it was time for a new maybe more slender model, we love this design because of no carafe cleaning, no pouring, easy serving others.

Better design than the last one

Thus the the large clumsy design was not justified

Very well designed as before, but better.

The sleek design is perfect for that updated look, the timer is easy to use,and the keep hot option to select 1 to 4 hours is a new option my older brewmaster did not have

The design of this model eliminates the biggest leak problem, condensation.

Good concept, but not a great design.

Really do love the "carafe-less" design.

Hamilton Beach sent me a lovely e-mail telling me how great their company was, and it's still on Amazon

I can make the coffee as strong as I like it, with the bold setting

If I'd been able to see how it worked I probably would not have purchased it.
