The coffee maker makes good coffee though, and I haven't broken the carafe (because it's not glass) but a bit more testing and design work on the pour spout could have made a big difference.

I bought this because I assumed that the carafe would keep the coffee warmer longer, but it's really cheaply made

5/4/2018I will NEVER break another carafe!

I have to say that while all I really knew when I started looking was that I wanted something compact and a coffee maker with a stainless steel carafe (as I tend to chip the glass carafe on the faucet more times than I care to admit

It's a fantastic coffee maker, my biggest gripe is the carafe, it drips whenever I pour it no matter how I do it

I like how light the carafe is, easy to pick up and pour

This new aroma express replaced another that I got 20 years ago, the new model is much more compact in size, still a 5 cup capacity, the carafe has improved with better pouring design at the spout

I like the stainless carafe and do not have the dripping problems others mention

Not a solid carafe

No frills and stainless carafe made me buy it.

This is a handy small coffee maker with a stainless steel carafe that works well at my office

The coffee make works well but the stainless carafe is just too small compared to the normal glass pot

First of all, the carafe is a very thin metal and cheaply made, no thicker than a tin can-not like the sturdy Cuisinart carafe

Love it, just the right amount of coffee, cannot break the carafe and the coffee is blistering hot which I also love.

I like the unbreakable stainless steel carafe

My real problem with this coffee maker is the drippy, messy carafe

Hamilton Beach 5-Cup Coffee Maker with Stainless Carafe (48137) As far as making coffee goes, this coffee maker does that just fine

The version I got has a stainless steel carafe, which is good because you do not need to worry about breaking it

Great size love the stainless carafe

To find the simple features that I wanted (4-5 cup capacity, no programming, stainless steel carafe), I had found the (now deceased) Aroma Elite from an outside vendor (Green Tree Coffee & Tea, fine folks BTW & excellent customer service), through Amazon

full Carafe , I always spill coffee over the edge more then needed (bad shape carafe).I also would like to have heavier bottom for this carafe, so that coffee would not burn so fast.**5/31/17

The stainless steel carafe is more durable and aesthetic than the glass carafe, I recommend it

The stainless carafe is a great

Love that the carafe is stainless instead of glass

When I saw this model with the Stainless carafe I figured it would be better suited for use in my shop/

and I don't have to worry about breaking the carafe.

I purchased it mostly since I needed smaller size and stainless steel Carafe .However when you start pouring out of

The carafe doesn’t fit properly, will not fill properly without water going everywhere and my actual carafe had leaks in it

Stainless carafe keeps you from buying a whole new coffee maker when you break a glass one that the replacement costs as much as another coffee maker.

Have broken many glass carafes.

My problem arose out of the flimsy carafe, which broke while I was washing it

Carafe can't break (it is not insulated but the coffeemaker has a hot plate)

It has an on light and that and the small carafe make it good for me.

Absolutely LOVE the stainless carafe, I refuse glass with teenagers around 😊

I find that using the coffee pot with the stainless steel carafe (versus my previous similar model with glass carafe) makes the coffee taste different, and the carafe stains badly.

So I guess I'll have to find a reliable glass carafe brewer

but the carafe is impossible to pour without making a big mess.

The carafe cracked.

I like that it has a stainless steel carafe b/c the glass ones constantly break.
