good coffee maker

I wanted someting that could be cleaned, something with a pot that poured without leaving a mess. It provides that. Filling the water reservoir? Either use the pot with the lid on or fill to the mark on the internal tube and don't go past 8. Like all coffee makers, they assume minature cup - probably 6 oz. With our best cups (not mugs) get a little less than 4 cups from a pot. Pot is very heavy. Overall appears well made, and looks good on the counter.

Pros and Cons

Pros: it looks good; it keeps coffee warm for a LONG time (couple hours--long enough to drink it before it begins to cool); it's fun to have a ceramic pot with company; makes decent coffee.
Cons: no water-level guage--we over filled it several times and it just spills all over; you can't use the carafe to fill the machine with water--without the lid, the carafe is not designed to pour, which is dumb!; it makes about 6 cups of coffee, not 8.
We like this maker, but will not buy another one once this one goes out. It was expensive for all the cons. However, we enjoy it enough that we're not returning it or cursing it or whatever. :)

Wonderful

We have had our coffee maker for several months now and could not be more pleased with it. We have not had a problem with coffee getting on the counter like another reviewer said was a problem. It makes wonderful coffee and the coffee still steams when poured four hours later. The only down side is that it only makes 8 cups of coffee instead of the usual 12.

The Venus drip coffee maker is a breath of fresh air on your counter with it's wonderfully bright white and stainless look to compliment any décor. The ceramic carafe is a beautiful serving piece that is a refreshing change from glass or stainless carafes. The functionality of a fully programmable coffee maker with beautiful design is hard to ignore.
