In addition, the pathetically dim display light is a joke

The next one worked for several months but now the display is so dim it's difficult to see.

Anyways, be aware that this product may not look like the photo Amazon is displaying

So, I still recommend this product, but if you purchase one keep an eye on the LED display, and seek warranty support if you happen to have a dud.

I just hope they sued the heck out of whoever had the contract to make their faulty digital displays that have croaked out on all of us.

UPDATE December 2017: the LED display became dimmer over time, to the point where it was barely legible even with the kitchen lights turned off.

Troublesome controls and display.

Display failed after 5.5 months

However, we depend on the Delay Brew feature and the display is so dim that it's frustrating to set

After 3 months of ownership, guess what.... the LCD driver burned out again, and now I have the infamous "dim display"

I don't use the auto-set function, but I can imagine that would be very difficult without a clear display.

I also love that the display comes with a dimmer, because I hate walking into the kitchen at night to see a giant glowing machine

After about a year the display and all the buttons except the brew button have stopped working.

First the display dimmed until it was unreadable

The display is getting dimmer and dimmer over the past year

Only issue is: the display is extremely dim

Even after clicking the button to change the setting, the display is not readable.

Coffee maker worked well for about 7 months but recently the LED display/clock is very dim to the point we can hardly see the time anymore

The performance is great, but the display has gotten so dim that it is almost unusable.

weak"-- I like strong

Works as you would expect, keep that java flowing!

Second, if I put more than 3 tablespoons of ground coffee in the reusable basket, that I had to order on its own, tons of ground coffee gets blasted everywhere in the basket and water filter, as well as coming through into the coffee.

I have a Keurig coffee maker and as much as I love the convenience, the cost of buying k-cups daily is expensive and the coffee is not always as strong as in a coffee maker

The water reservoir is easy to clean as it comes off in a single unit to carry to the sink for a good, soapy wash.

Does not spread the water over the grains as well as it could, but not badly either.

The carafe fits snug into the housing, and prevents as good as it can to prevent any heat loss for the coffee dripping into it

The lid of the carafe could use some revamping to make it easier to clean as I have concerns about what could grow in it over

Being in a caraffe it does not burn and you can even heat the coffee up in the microwave and its as good as it was when first brewed.

This coffee seems just as good as with our slower machine, so they must have something with their claim to have hit the right temperature for the brew to enable them to do it faster
