I was looking for a large capacity coffee, it makes more 1,5l (I have not checked if it contained 1.8l, but it is about that). In addition, I found "fun". Purple is a bit dark, I would "maybe" favorite red, eventually. Attention is very high! So if you have a row of kitchen units in height, make sure it goes well! Cover open it is 48/49 cm. One star less because it does not stop automatically, and I already like toasted coffee ça.Le price is a bit exaggerated, too. And clamping metal is tight so the block handle and lid turns a little during drying washing, and there she drools a little. Otherwise it just pays GOOD! It's nice because I had moult brand coffee makers that poured more coffee beside the cup in ;-) It works perfectly at full capacity for months and my coffee never last long .... No found, leaks simple model, it makes a lot of noise for those that bother, which is not my case. I am very satisfied unlike GoodLuck that fell on the wrong number and perhaps could exchange it? Those are my impressions. Hope you find them useful.
