The Machine:
=============
She is beautiful and save space, because the stainless steel jug is very compact and requires no glass bulb, as is the case with thermos flasks.
The plastic on the machine has a stainless steel inlay on the filter insert, which is very nice and gives a fine picture. Incidentally filter bags the size 4 or 1x4 are used.
The water level is easy to read and well placed on the right side.
The filter insert can be folded out far and even lose weight. However, one has to the entire flap, in this filter element is incorporated, remove what is probably most used to clean the case.
The large opening on the rear panel, water can be very easily fill in the device and nothing bib.
The brewing process is pleasantly quiet and the machine switches off automatically after brewing.
With 1000 watts of brewing runs quite fast, but to alienate without the flavor. On the contrary, the coffee is the flavor even more rounded flavor than before and with any type of coffee.
One scoop is also at it (sticks to the inside of the cover)
Only a cable rewind I would have liked.
The stainless steel pot:
===================
She is very beautiful, sturdy and makes on each table looks good.
Even after 6 hours the coffee is still very hot, which certainly is due to the good closure. At first I was skeptical, however, because you have the cover to the left to remove the lid. If you turn it to the right, then he stands and you can pour. But after the second application, all concerns were eliminated, because the handling is very simple and logical. Other systems keep the coffee not so long warm, more than one has a screw cap, but is still much fummeliger and more time than the system chosen by Philips.
What at the pot but most importantly, there are no annoying drops more. The spout is just perfect, everything goes to where you want it, namely in the cup. Finally you do not have with the rag guests use on the pot, the table cloth remains clean and that bothered me at my old coffee the most.
Conclusion:
======
Although I never wanted to spend so much money for a simple coffee, but this investment has really paid off. A shapely, compact and low-maintenance coffee with no real flaws.
A real best buy!
