Customer Reviews
Very good Coffeemaker
I have never been one to spend a lot of money on coffeemakers in the past but I thought I would spend a little more this time and see if I could find a better quality one. I have not been disappointed. The FTXSS43 does a very good job of making a fine cup of coffee. The features I like best are the beep alert to let you know when the coffee is ready (which has a switch to turn it off if you don't want to hear it), the improved spout that doesn't drip when you pour a cup, the timer to start the coffeemaker automatically in the morning,the adjustable heat control for the warming plate, the LCD analog clock which puts out a pleasant glow and acts as a nightlight in the kitchen at night, the fact that the clock automatically turns into a timer to let you know how long the coffee has been made, and the most important, the good tasting coffee. The pot takes what I would call an average amount of time to brew and the stainless steel exterior is attractive and very easy to clean.
I had a really cheap coffee maker and as much as I love coffee, I finally decided to go out and by myself a nice one. This machine has had problems pretty much since the beginning. The coffee is never hot unless I let it sit there for about an hour. The coffee filter folds about 50% of the time and lets grounds into the pot. The pause n brew feature works about 75% of the time and about 30% of the time, the coffee misses the decanter and over flows to the hot plate. I also can never get all of the water out of the decanter into the reservoir. The decanter design keeps just a little in there, so after filling the reservoir I got over to the sink and give it a few hard upside down shakes then wipe inside with a paper towel. Today it stopped working all together. The lights and clock are on in the front but it’s not brewing and the warming plate is not hot. I wish I had never bought this thing. Also I found that when I tried to use the water filter, it always caused the paper filter to fold, so I stopped using it.
