There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I researched pretty extensively for a solid, well-made pot and I'm quite satisfied with this purchase. The pot is heavy duty and will likely last for years if minimal care is taken. I like the glass perc top (although I did buy the Fitz-all replacement top to have on hand, just in case.) It fits well and doesn't leak. I love the fact that there are no plastic parts at all. The outside of the pot is attractive and I actually like the chubby, squat style which fits perfectly on the small burner of my glass-top. The filter basket, cover, and pump are solid and well made. The wooden handle stays cool. Everything is lined up properly. I'm not sure what that one previous negative poster was on about - there is nothing wrong with the quality of the workmanship here. Yes, I would prefer that the pot was made in the U.S. but almost nothing is, these days.
I recommend this pot without reservation. If you buy one just be patient in learning the art. It's not hard and it's worth the trouble. Use water that's fresh and cold. Use enough coffee (preferably coarsely ground, but anything in a pinch) - a Tbs. per cup. I use 4 well rounded coffee scoops (each scoop is 2 Tbs) for the 8 cup mark. Turn your burner on high until you see the first perk (this can take up to ten minutes if you're starting with very cold water.) Then put your burner on low so that a steady perk is maintained but the coffee isn't boiling. I perk for 8 minutes for the 8 cup mark (rule of thumb 1 minute per cup - so 10 min for 10 cups, 12 min for 12, etc.) Like I said, it takes a little more time and if you're the type of person who wants a cup to their lips the minute they stagger out of bed, this type of system is not for you. I've found I can start the pot in the morning, take the dogs out (or take a quick shower) and return in time to turn the pot down. Then it's just a few minutes' wait for the best cup of coffee you'll ever taste.
Pros: Durable Stainless steel, excellent fit and finish, cool touch handle, glass perk dome, quality internals that actually fit together and inside the pot, Large size is a welcome feature in this instance, as it actually makes 12 servings!
Cons: Made in China (we couldn't find a company to produce this in the USA?), Took some time to get used to the hinged lid (now a welcome feature) and that questionable wood(?) handle that could hold germs and bacteria. The handle looks good but sani-safe plastic or Bake-o-lite would have been another option.
Remember these things: Wash with warm soapy water and rinse well before using. Leave the glass perk dome slightly loose to avoid breakage (found that tip in another review, Thanks!) and remove the basket and grounds before pouring.
My recipe went like this: One heaping teaspoon per serving (Folgers all grind was what we had on had), Bottled water to the correct serving mark, bring to perk over high heat then reduce heat to medium for 5 minutes while maintaining the perk. Remove from heat, let settle for a minute, remove internals by lifting entire setup out by center stem with hot pad and enjoy!

Item performs exactly as required so far
Additionally, now that I have actually used it. It's great! I may never fill it as I can't drink that much coffee...
Didn't realise it held so much. Will be good if I have people over...
Detalles: tuve que limar los filosos terminados tanto del mango como la tapa y boca de la olla.
