It leaks where the black plastic and stainless steel meet.

Stainless steel keeps the coffee hotter, makes the coffee taste better and is less worrisome than having an easy to break glass pot

the look of an expensive espresso machine - note the two completely decorative stainless steel looking but actually plastic tubes above the carafe

The coffee doesn’t taste burnt because it is brewed into the stainless steel pot.

You can't break the carafe as it is stainless steel.

It started leaking between the top black portion and the main stainless steel body almost immediately

I really like the stainless steel thermal pot.

The stainless steel finish looks great in that type of kitchen.

I used the same measure that i've been using for my old fashion stainless steel stovetop drip pot that i have been using for 30 years

The stainless steel finish gives the countertops a little elegant flair!

I used to scrub (with a scrubbing pad) my previous stainless steel carafe once a week.

I like that the container is not all glass and is of solid stainless steel which helps keep the coffee hot for that long

Love the stainless steel carafe and removable water filter.

we wanted a Stainless steel carafe

I dropped the carafe and the good news is stainless steel doesn't break

What I do now to keep the insides shiny is drop in my stainless steel chainmail scrubber and swish it around with a little water added

Love the stainless steell carafe as I knew I would but should have went for the next size bigger (not sure if this brand has one with a stainless steel carafe).

I love the stainless steel carafe

I'm also really pleased about the stainless steel aspect of this brewer as our previous glass ones have either been broken or get noticeably yellow to the point of not being cleanable (not good for the guests to

The insulated stainless steel pot is great

: It allows a nice drip, plenty of steeping time for the coffee-grounds and, once the processis complete~~~ it shuts off like any proper pot oughta(Meaning no worries about the prepared coffee being continuously-bombarded & boiled-out by a hot plate)The insulated stainless-steel carafe keeps the coffee at serving temp, so who NEEDS that silly hot plate, anyway, right?This is NOT your mom's el-cheapo "Mr Coffee"-pot, I promise

The big advantage of a glass pot is seeing how much coffee you have left, Mr. Coffee solves this problem with this stainless steel carafe by including what they call "light bar technology" so you can tell how much they have left

One thing I can attest to is that the stainless steel carafe keeps the coffee piping hot for ages, a lot longer than one of my old machine for example - Melitta 10-Cup Coffee Maker with Vacuum Stainless Thermal

The pot leaked at the top of stainless steel part when you poured coffee.

The fact that the stainless Steel crafe keeps the coffee at temp is in my opinion a lot smarter than a heating pad keeping it warm

That’s all-I think people just forget to do that due to it being stainless steel instead of glass

The coffee was leaking from the carafe at the spot where the plastic top meets the stainless steel bottom

As far as style goes, this pot fits into my modern, stainless steel kitchen.

The carafe is stainless steel (a plus for households with small children) and insulated

It looks nice with the other stainless steel appliances as well.

correct temperature, stainless steel carafe, 12-cups, spreads water over grounds, timer, looks nice, water tank can be filled and grounds/filter added w/o having to move machine

The *only* reason I'm not offering 5 stars is because the unit is primarily >plastic<, not stainless steel(as the pic sort of implies).Very happy with this purchase.

I love the way it looks on my counter, and it goes well with my stainless steel appliances.

The inner surface is brushed stainless steel and it stains with time leaving a perpetual stale coffee scent

The stainless steel thermal carafe on the other hand is a horror

I've never submerged this coffee carafe, yet it began to leak around the seam between the black plastic & the stainless steel ... just sitting on the plate, whenever the coffee would brew.

This Mr. Coffee is a reasonably good looking coffee machine, combining stainless steel with black and clear plastic

The unit is attractive, matching up with the stainless steel appliances we have in our kitchen

I've never submerged this coffee carafe, yet it began to leak around the seam between the black plastic & the stainless steel ... just sitting on the plate, whenever the coffee would brew.

I love the clean lines and stainless steel body of both the pot and the coffeemaker itself

We really like the stainless steel Thermal Carafe...much better that breakable glass (they never last here).

The inner surface is brushed stainless steel and it stains with time leaving a perpetual stale coffee scent
