The Calphalon Electric 12-cup Quick Coffee maker has been a complete disappointment.
First and foremost, it is not an exceptionally "quick" coffee maker.
The basket for the coffee doesn't seem to be large enough. Even when only brewing 8 cups of coffee, the coffee grounds go beyond the basket and you end up with grounds in your coffee.
And lastly, the coffee maker is supposed to let you pour your coffee in the middle of the brew cycle - letting you pour and then resume brewing. Yeah, that doesn't work either - coffee goes everywhere.
REALLY? What were you thinking, Calphalon?
The filters for the water tank are difficult to find. In fact, I ended up having to order them online.
All in all, I would NOT recommend the Calphalon Electric 12-cup Quick Coffeemaker. Don't spend the money. It's simply not worth it. Mr. Coffee, please accept my apologies and know that as soon as this crappy coffee maker dies, I'll be coming back and begging your forgiveness.
