Wolf Gourmet Programmable Drip Coffee Maker - 10-Cup - Stainless Steel

I have owned this coffee maker for about 18 months now and am extremely pleased with it. It makes a pot of coffee more quickly than any other machine I've ever owned. It has a feature that tells you how long it has been since the pot was brewed but the thermal carafe keeps it hot for a long time (to be fair, we usually finish the pot before it could ever get cold, lol). It does take up more counter space than other models I've had but it's an elegant looking machine and matches my Wolf appliances so that's a nice bonus from a design standpoint.

I have always had high end coffee makers. Quality pays off. This coffee maker is SOLID and performs! I did not find it complicated at all to use- just read the instructions before you start. I made a pot of coffee at 2am (I know, crazy right?). At 6:30am it was still fresh and hot. The insulated pot is great. A tip I did read was to run hot water through your carafe before making the coffee, to help keep coffee hot. I also am keeping notes of brands of coffee, how much water, and how much coffee grounds. I am needing less coffee grounds, as this beast is efficient. Spend the money! Worth every penny.

I’ve owned this Wolf Gourmet Coffee Maker for 3 Years. I’ve had percolators and many drip makers including 3 Bunn drip makers and even 1 semi commercial Bunn the A10. They all make good coffee and they all threw the pot quickly too. I also have a new Beville at the lake so these can be compared. But they don’t compare! Once you get your routine down and do not deviate from it, the Wolf will throw 8 perfect pots out of ten. I mean just exquisite tasting coffee - the kind where you empty the pot and try to wring out the carafe, kind of exquisite. Every now and then, and you never know when, you get a pot like that from the Breville but to be fair I’m no where near as practiced on the one at the lake. I don’t think coffee beans or even water for that matter is 100% consistent which may explain the 2 out of ten pots that are more average. So yes it’s expensive for a drip maker (not near as much as a cappuccino machine) about three times the cost of the Breville, but I start every day now looking forward to my first few cups of coffee. I even anticipate those delicious first sips at night as I lay me down to sleep! You can decide if it’s worth it. I sure think it is! I’m not sure why there’s a water filter but maybe someone can explain? It might be the difference between the Wolf and the Beville I just don’t know? And I don’t like the results I get from the ‘Accubrew’ setting! Not sure why but I tastes too strong to me? I think the biggest reason for the consistent outcome is the precise weigh-scale on the coffee basket. You don’t have to eye-ball or guess how much to put in. So I give this coffee maker not just a recommendation, but a near favourite possession status. Really very impressive.

Wanted a carafe coffee maker and did lots of research, ended up on this one over the technivorm due to quality reported in reviews. The price was higher but had all the features you could want and now about a month and am so glad I got it. Very well built, one place said USA made and another China so not sure but very solid. Carafe keeps very hot 2 hours and then pretty warm another 2. Scale built into basket is handy, from the espresso world I thought it was an actual coffee scale but it just tells you to add a certain amount based on brew strength, it's handy but doesn't give you a grams readout. Removeable water reservoir easy to use. I like products that have actual thought put into them, this is one of those, a designer who drinks coffee had input and made the perfect coffee machine.

The coffee maker is wonderful. I’ve tried many kids but this is the best.
