Amazon Basics Coffee Makers, 5-Cup Coffee Machines with Reusable Filter, Coffee Pots, Black & Stainless Steel

I ordered this coffee maker because I only had a Keurig, which makes just one cup at a time. I needed something that could brew multiple cups, mainly to use with my Ninja slushy maker for frappes. I didn’t need anything expensive or high-tech, and this coffee maker does exactly what I wanted. It brews more than one cup at a time without taking up much space. It’s very mini, compact, and lightweight — perfect if you’re not a heavy coffee drinker. The coffee brews properly and works just as it should. For the price, it’s a great value, and it even looks nice on the counter. Definitely recommended!

This coffee maker does not need the traditional filters it actually has a built-in filter. It’s very small so it would be good for a cup and a half of coffee maybe technically you can fill it up to the brim, but I don’t do that.- I would recommend this for a single household that wants a coffee maker- it was really inexpensive and so far I’ve had it for three days and it works great

Yes a coffee maker. Sometimes you get surprised. I am. First the quality of this coffee maker is amazing. Easy to use. Very easy to clean. Very well made. Easily compares too much more expensive coffee makers. 👍👍 Yes it is a coffee maker.

This small coffee maker is perfect for its purpose. I've usually made my lattes with a manual pour-over filter basket in a French press carafe. I froth the milk by microwaving 1/2 cup -2/3 cup in a large Pyrex measuring cup and using a whisk. (Our Keurig won't properly brew espresso grind -- too fine.) I wanted to try a small drip brewer with a cone-shaped filter basket for extracting the espresso and this works! I don't use the "reusable" screen filter, as those are a hot mess with espresso grounds. I use a paper filter in the cone-shaped plastic filter basket and this little brewer does get hot enough to work! I use a full scoop of espresso grind and 12oz of water (plus the milk froth) for a perfect 16oz+ latte. And, of course, the machine brews two-12oz cups of regular coffee, as it will take 24-25oz of water. The warming plate works fine. I would give this brewer 5 stars, but as others have said, it is flimsy. It really could use a little more rigidity -- it's very soft thin plastic. I'll guess mostly recycled plastic. But, again, it works great, fits under your cabinets (Mr Coffee is too tall) and this is easy to clean. We'll see how long it holds up. Meanwhile, for $20, go for it.

This coffee maker exceeded my expectation for the price. I didn’t look carefully enough at the description to realize that it has a reusable filter and comes with a measuring spoon. It is a simple, foolproof way to brew just a few cups of coffee as needed for our baseball concession stand. I’m very pleased with my quick purchase!

This coffee maker came in handy when my Keurig was on the fritz. The permanent filter is quite easy to use, I haven't yet put it in the microwave, but it is supposed to be fine on the top rack. There are no bells and whistles with this, it's a straightforward electric Brewer. You measure the coffee in the carafe then pour it into the tank. Put the carafe back on the warmer, put whatever level of coffee you want in the permanent filter, and hit the start button. Roughly 4 minutes later you will have five six ounce cups of coffee. Since I use a mug I usually only get two out of it but that's all I need. The four minutes it takes is just perfect for using my air fryer to make four slices of toast, so everything is ready at the same time.

I've been using the Amazon Basics 5 Cup Drip Coffee Make daily for 3 weeks. It works fine but it's not quite what I hoped for. As others have mentioned the lid warps, mine started after just 3 days of use. For now it's not a functional issue as the lid still snaps into place. Being plastic I expect that will change eventually with more warpage and wear. The biggest disappointment is the shape of the basket and mesh filter, I expected standard round but they're cone shaped. The filter allows too much sludge so I've set it aside and use a #2 paper cone filter. The sludge may not be an issue with a coarser grind of coffee when using the mesh filter, mine is currently a fine grind.

Does the job. I got it to replace another Amazon basic that I had for 2-1/2 years till the red button broke. So I figure for $15.year I am renting this till the button breaks again. The style is a little sleeker. When pouring from the pitcher, note that there are now holes in the top of lid so remember to raise the lid before pouring into a cup.

solid coffee maker and you can't beat the price!

Basic, cheaply made but works fine and is way better than the more solid Cuisinart it replaced which never poured worth a darn.

Love it, still have it a year later. Easy to use and wash.

Great

This works beautifully! Takes approximately 5 minutes to brew a batch of coffee. Highly recommended!
