Carafe is not great, but the coffee is fantastic

 

Carafe is not great, but the coffee is fantastic

I love this coffeemaker. The carafe does not have the little plastic lib that you put your thumb on to pop the top up which is the only major drawback. The coffee is wonderful though. I think it is brewed at a hotter temp than the other coffee...

Right Size, Right Quality

Over the years I've had several 4- or 5-cup coffee makers, including Mr. Coffee. Now when I need a replacement I always go back to a Hamilton Beach model. It's easy to set up, easy to use and easy to clean. They It brews fast, feels "right", and is...

Mess Express

 

Mess Express

As others have pointed out, the lid and spout are poorly executed. If you make a full pot, it is impossible to pour coffee without creating a mess, unless you pour very, very slowly. The coffee hits the lid and flows out at the sides of the spout,...

Perfect for the College Student

 

Perfect for the College Student

The Aroma Express is not a fancy coffee maker. It will not beep at you, function without a carafe, tell the time, brew different strengths at the touch of a button, or use special "pods". It also won't cost more than $30 (I paid $20 a year and a half...
