Bottom Line: Great coffee maker - the taste of the coffee is a knock-out and the design grows on you quite quickly.
Rich Gore (quality: 8.3) 02.24.2008 Rating: 9.0
Bottom Line: Good machine, great coffee, great value.
Joe Marsh (quality: 8.3) 04.18.2008 Rating: 8.2
Bottom Line: This not a "plug and play" unit, it makes great coffee but it has some quirks.
Nancy Padberg (quality: 7.5) 03.28.2005 Rating: 9.0
Bottom Line: Definitely recommend it, unless you like really strong coffee!
Loren Elliot (quality: 7.3) 01.27.2005 Rating: 3.8
Bottom Line: Zojirushi Fresh Brew dies in less than a year. I have owned two and will not buy another. Do not buy this macine.
Ross Seymour (quality: 7.0) 10.06.2008 Rating: 8.4
Bottom Line: Good basic coffee maker by reliable manufacturer.
David Steiner (quality: 7.0) 11.29.2009 Rating: 8.2
Bottom Line: A very good, relatively inexpensive if somewhat fragile machine that makes excellent coffee and keeps it warm without a hot plate, easy to use and clean.

Bottom Line: The best value in Thermal Carafe Drip Coffee Makers, PERIOD!
Steve Bohn (quality: 6.5) 01.28.2006 Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: The price was 1/2 of the Starbucks Grande but MUCH more durable. To sum up, I have achieved Coffee Nirvana.

Michael Spangler (quality: 6.0) 04.03.2011 Rating: 8.6
Bottom Line: No barista, I. Just want great coffee and great value in the machine. Got it.
Eric Norris (quality: 6.0) 06.26.2007 Rating: 9.0
Bottom Line: Solid performance. Coffee was good. Technically easy to work. I am not coveting any other drip machines.
Regina Verdin (quality: 5.8) 01.11.2005 Rating: 9.6

Bottom Line: Good coffee at a fair price.
Billy Johnston (quality: 3.8) 04.20.2005 Rating: 7.6
Bottom Line: It is a very good quality coffee maker that looks nice, doesn't use much counter space, keeps coffee hot, but makes an ordinary tasting cup of coffee.
Gene Sparks (quality: 3.7) 06.09.2005 Rating: 9.8

Bottom Line: DO NOT BUY
Tom Sweeney (quality: 0.5) 01.14.2007 Rating: 2.0
Bottom Line: The carafe does not open easily; buy only if you like to be extremely frustrated each morning.
Chris Rusu 06.07.2010 Rating: 7.8
Bottom Line: Great consistant brew time/heat. For around $90.00 it's worth it!
Kenny Catbox 02.23.2011 Rating: 6.2

James Nicoll 03.12.2009 Rating: 8.0
