What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise the sleek, elegant design and impressive brewing performance, with many highlighting customizable brew strength, water temperature, and smartphone app control as standout features.

failed after 4 months

Pot handle peels
Would RecommendWorks well and looks nice, however; after only three months of use the handle is peeling. It has only been hand washed. For the price, I feel like the quality of the pot could be better.

Great Hot Coffee.
Would RecommendThe cafe drip coffee maker makes great coffee. Fast & hot. And it stays hot for a long time in the pot. Now we own two of them. The black and the silver model.

Love this Coffee Maker!
Would RecommendNo issues with this coffee maker. Wifi feature is great and it is easy to hook-up. You can set the strength and temperature of your brew and can program auto start or turn it on with wifi feature whenever you are ready! We have the stainless steel model so there is no warming plate but coffee stays hot for a few hours. We have even gone back several hours later and the coffee is still warm so a 30 second stay in the microwave heats it back up! You can also set the # of cups you want from 1 t...

Great only if you love planned obsolescence
Would Not RecommendLooks great, makes great coffee, does not last. Didn’t even make it two years, but of course died post-warranty. Don’t buy this.

Electrical issue
We expected more from a coffee maker at this price point. We have the model before this one without the WiFi and it does look nice but the knob stopped working correctly so it takes us extra long to try get it to stop on the right number anytime we change the number of cups or time. Very frustrating.

Buyer Beware
My maker died after 2 months of use (no heat and it won't brew). GE is refusing to honor their warranty. It took writing a bad review here to get someone to contact me. Interestingly the original review is gone. They are flat out refusing to fix this because I don't have a receipt because it was a holiday gift, despite that I registered my coffee maker with them upon receipt. Theses coffee makers are defective, but at least the blue tooth still works ... Go with another brand. The other high e...

Good Coffee, Cheap Carafe
I've had this coffee maker for a little over 2 years. It still makes great coffee, but the carafe is falling apart. The finish on the handle is bubbling on the top and corroding on the underside. I'm sure the handle is going to detach like so many other reviews have mentioned. There also a good amount of water trapped somewhere in the walls of the carafe, likely getting in through the corroding handle. I've tried to purchase a replacement carafe, but the thing is always sold out, likely because ...

Good coffee, poor design, difficult to clean
Would Not RecommendMakes a good pot of coffee, but it’s a pain in the butt to clean! Every day I have to deal with trying to get coffee grounds off the lid and the filter area. Bought it because it claims to Have less plastic than most coffee makers, but the filter area is still plastic So I’m still dealing with plastic getting hot

Beautiful but not to the standards
Would Not RecommendMy wife and I bought this coffee pot for the sleek design and it matched all our other GE Cafe’ appliances. The design is amazing. However the thing we don’t care for is the coffee does not stay hot for long in the “thermal” container. If we would have k own this we would not have spent the high price for the unit.

Stops brewing after a year or less
Would Not RecommendWe love the look of this coffee maker and the fact that it is wi-if enabled. When it worked, it brewed great coffee. Ours stopped working 1 year and one 1 week after purchasing. There is no error message - just a spinning light and the brew never starts. We were sent a replacement and the SAME thing happened not even two months later. So disappointed. We give up.

Good coffee, but handle breaking after 15 months
Would Not RecommendThis coffee maker does a great job with coffee, but unfortunately I am experiencing the same issues as others, with the carafe handle expanding and coming apart, after only 15 months. Even if this was an unforeseen design issue, it seems only right to correct this for those who experienced these issues after such a short time.
