Bukbuk: Been using this coffee maker for about 3 weeks. It works great, very easy to setup and use, carafe cleans easy. The defuse dripper comes off for each cleaning if you get any splash back.

I decided to try out this unit because I was burning out the heating elements on my previous 4 coffee makers that use a glass pot and keep a heating element on for hours while I slowly go through my pot of coffee. I found no coffee maker of that heating element style could last more than 2-5 years of daily use before the heating element failed. This OXO unit only keeps the heating element on for 15 min, the insulated carafe will keep the coffee steaming hot for 3-4 hours, and luke warm even 8 hours later. My hope is that the heating element in this unit will last many times longer running a fraction of the time my old ones did.

Two things to note:

The carafe, does not completely drain all of its liquid with a straight pour. The lip will hang onto a couple table spoons of coffee or water unless you give it a little shake it slightly.

For the people that find it overflows when making coffee spilling coffee and grains around the lip of the carafe or down the sides, I made...

Arno: At first I was a bit disappointed about the coffee temperature. I played around with the coffee grind a bit by going from a fine grind to a medium/coarse grind and that seemed to fix it somewhat without losing too much taste. The logic here being that the coffee would sit longer on a fine grind as opposed to a coarser grind(the influence is probably minimal though). The temperature of the coffee in the carafe right after brewing was just below 170F. If you prefer a piping hot cup of coffee (you really shouldn't) you are probably going to be disappointed but the coffee that this machine produces is far superior than what I had before.

M.M: This is an exquisite coffee maker. Simple to use, easy to clean. The design looks good and performs well. It's simple, straight forward and high quality. My only complaint, and the reason for -1 star is the lack of a heating plate. While the carafe does a great job keeping the coffee warm, it's only losing temperature over time. After 40 minutes to an hour, the coffee is noticeably cooler and no longer hot enough to experience the full coffee vibe. This essentially creates a race against time.

Connoisseurs will tell you hotplates degrade the flavor of the coffee. I'm not one to argue. I'm just used to having one. If I had to choose between great coffee and hot coffee, I'll choose great coffee. This makes great coffee.

Danville Jeff: We bought this coffee maker because we were looking for one that simulated a pour-over and this is it. We only brew one cup at a time using the insert. We like different coffee beans in my family, so we grind for each cup. We had the "dribble" problem on the underside of the basket that started after a few months, you will see this mentioned in the reviews. Oxo sent a new basket and that fixed it. I cannot see any difference between the dribbling basket and the new one, but I am pretty sure that it does not take much for the problem to start. A slight extra pressure on the moving arm under the basket stops it. I think putting the basket in the dishwasher slightly deformed the arm after a few months and that is the problem. It is the heated drying part of the cycle that can be hard on plastics. Have had the new basket for a couple of months no problem so far. The other thing to mention is that I have tried all kinds of coffee filters in the one cup insert - #2 cone, #4 cone, Kalita 185 and even a smushed down regular coffee basket filter. They all work equally well, so we buy the #4 cones at Sams club. Love the coffee this thing makes.

Lisa: I was excited to get a new coffee maker and after some research decided on this one. I figured the cost would be worth the exceptional coffee. No clock or programming dollars went into it so it was all put towards making really great tasting coffee.

Used it for the first time this morning and was so disappointed. To me, it tasted no better than the Ninja coffee maker I’m replacing. Maybe I need to tweak the coffee measurement. Mostly, after about 90 minutes the coffee in the carafe tasted extremely bitter and was just warm. I expected hotter fresher tasting coffee at 90 minutes.

Maybe there are a few things I need to get the hang of but first impression is less than impressive. I’ve been happy with the Ninja and Cuisinart coffee makers I’ve owned at $75-$100 price point.

I do like how this Oxo looks. But I prefer good coffee over a nice looking machine.

Update: My opinion has changed and I’ve upped the rating from 2 to 4 stars. I’ve gotten use to how ridiculously simple this is to use and how fast it brews 8 cups of coffee.

anonymouse: Warning, this is a critical review. I give this a 5 star because overall product merits an excellent rating. However, if I was to rate this based on value, I rate it a 3 star.

I'm not a coffee snob. I like my cheap coffee. I've watched several coffee snob reviews on this product prior to purchase, and this is my take. What the heck is the difference between a $30 drip coffee maker and a $300 drip coffee maker? Well, it's the same difference between a 900watt microwave and a 1400watt microwave. This $300 coffee maker has a higher wattage heating element. Which means it'll heat the water of faster and hotter. Does it make that big of a difference? That's something only a coffee snob can tell you. I'll say this: I can tell the difference. It's not earth shattering, but it does make a difference. Does it make a $200+ difference? Most will say 'no'.

So now I move onto rating the coffee maker on overall quality. This is where I get a little more critical. Why? Because it's OXO. I own lots of OXO products and I love them all. I'll be honest and say, this feels more like an OXO product in the making. It's not the user experience I'd expect from OXO. Translation, this misses...

Karrenola: So after my beloved National brand coffee maker (which I bought off a guy leaving Japan three decades ago) finally died at age 30, I went through the hell of trying to find a simple coffee maker to do the same great job. Yup, it took another five years to find one after failing with several costly others. This one by OXO was rated by several people on the web so of course it's easy to be skeptical, but one review convinced me to try it. Lo and behold...delicious coffee SO simple to make is BACK! Keeps the coffee HOT without burning it like my beloved National used to do, so it one upped it lol. Yeah it's great, Alice. Worth every penny. Get one.

Can Con (Canadian Consumer): OXO 8 Cup Coffee Maker Review update

We have now had the unit for about two weeks and as a result I can give a more complete review.

The unit is a smaller coffee maker, unlike many other more conventional home brewers. It is able to brew anywhere from two to eight coffee industry standard 5 ounce cups, or 40 fluid ounces in total. I point this out as the Amazon description still lists it as making 64 fluid ounces. I sent in a note to Amazon about correcting that mistake but nothing has changed yet.

Interface:
- The interface is uncluttered and intuitive, with none of the stuff I don’t want.
- It has only 4 buttons: Power, 2-4 cups, 5-8 cups, Clean.
- No unnecessary clock or timer functions.
- Two brew baskets: the standard “main” basket and an insert for making lesser amounts
- The base has a recessed pedestal which can be flipped over to lift a mug up when brewing directly into the mug

Usage:
- I have now used all options for making a brew:
- 2-4 cups setting into both a pot and a mug, 5-8 cups into a pot.
- Water comes in hot and FAST. Initial bloom phase (flow then pause) lasts about 30 seconds to a minute.
- Coffee...

Krash: ANOTHER UPDATE!! I know this is crazy but, I called Oxo yesterday and talked to Customer Service about the cleaning light not going out. She was very helpful and also agreed the instructions for this in the booklet are horrible. She sent me an email with instructions for cleaning/descaling and she said to try this. And said if this doesn't work, to contact the supplier in Canada (as this was the U.S. website) for replacement or refund.
So, I followed the instructions she sent, and OMG, THE LIGHT WENT OUT!!!!!! So, I now have those instructions tucked away and I will do it this way the next time the clean light comes on!!! Thank you Oxo Customer Service!! I'm keeping the coffee maker!

**Here's an update on my review on this coffee maker. I'm extremely disappointed in this 8 cup Oxo Thermal coffee maker. It makes decent coffee, but the clean mode hasn't worked correctly since day one. I cannot get the flashing clean mode light to shut off!! This is the second time I've cleaned, as the light came on yesterday, after I made my coffee. The first time I cleaned it and the light would not go out, I read reviews here to see if others had this problem which there were many! I...
