Ratings & Reviews for Cafe 10 -Cup Programmable Residential Drip coffee maker with Automatic Shut-Off ( Matte Black )

Gorgeous coffee maker

Looks gorgeous in my white kitchen; a little glitchy to turn on but the asthetics trump it. The coffee cup is heavy

Good looking to start

Got this to add with my appliances not worth the money so sad it looked good in my kitchen until I used it. It does not get clean stains so easy not a value. Too bad the plastic is cracking.

Not worth the price

Nothing impressive about it considering the price. It is pretty just not worth the price.

Great coffee, design could use some work

We had a problem with the original one we bought. I failed within the first couple of weeks. The Descale light came on and would not reset, it showed Medium, even though we never changed it from Gold, but GE was great about replacing it. The new one has been working properly so far and hopefully will continue to do so. It makes excellent tasting coffee when set to Gold. The only complaints are the water reservoir doesn't come off to make cleaning easy and because of the thick insulated wall...

Fantastic coffee maker with one problem

Carafe retaining water between layers of insulation Otherwise great product Trying to figure out how to get carafe replaced due to defect

Good looking.

It is quite good looking. the features are nice and intuitive. My 2 critiques are that it really doesn't keep the coffee warm after the first cup (at the highest temperature), and it doesn't release all the coffee at the end without removing the top.

Descaling Directions in Booklet Incorrect

I attempted to descale my coffeemaker according to the directions in the booklet. I spent two hours descaling (I thought I was, anyway.) but to no avail. Apparently, the directions in the booklet are incorrect. I found the following directions in one of the reviews on this site. “I ran into this when following the instructions in the manual, which are wrong. When descaling you do not send the machine through the brew process, as stated on page 14 of the manual. Instead, press the strength butto...

Cafe Collection Coffeemaker

Love this machine it brews a great cup of coffee effortlessly. It is also very beautiful on my counter

Worked great until suddenly stopped working at all

Worked great until one day it stopped brewing and now we are in a warranty claim.

Good coffee, bad carafe

The machine itself is good but, as others have noted, the finishes on the carafe handle are flaking off.

Good machine but terrible carafe

The coffee machine itself works well, but the carafe is terrible. After using it for only a few years, the material around the handle is separating and falling apart. Pretty soon it will be so bad that I won't be able to use the machine at all anymore. When I ordered this machine I was hoping it would be the last coffee machine I would ever need, but it looks like I'll be shopping for a new model soon.

Bad carafe

The machine makes good coffee but the thermal carafe is terrible. After only 2 years , the finish on the handle separated leaving sharp end. Now it is corroded.

Good coffee, bad descaling.

No issues until descaling then I was unable to get the machine to restart normally. Apparently from the reviews this is a common issue. One suggestion for fixing the issue was to send it for professional repair. Likely won’t do that or buy another GE Cafe either.

Carafe Handle Not Good

Coffee taste great. Handle cover material started to peel after 6 months.

Good coffee, but not worth the expense

I’ve had mine for 3 years now and unfortunately it’s very disappointing for its cost. There are multiple announces with unmanaged condensation. The grounds basket housing condensates and makes a mess, the grounds lids condensates and makes a mess, the reservoir lid condensates and makes a mess. Also, the LED display is beginning to get blank spots. There is no WiFi info or control over the warming plate (2 hours with no control or even a timer) Lastly, the glass carafe doesn’t pour driples...

Metal handle peels off

Great drip coffee maker..... until, the metal handle on the carafe finish begins to peel. It is sharp and resulted in a finger laceration. The company refused to replace it. Distinct by POOR design!

Makes great tasting coffee

This coffee maker makes excellent coffee and is easy to use. Love that I can start it in the bedroom and get a notification when brewing is finished before going downstairs to the kitchen. The carafe keeps the coffee hot for over two hours.

Not that so good

This is a good drip.i had a bunn for about 10 years and I find this make similar but do not recommend if you are not seeking a short life one that will look terrible within a year.

Great but handle always rusts.

Beautiful machine except that the handle rusts and breaks- this has now happened with 2 replacements. I see that many others have complained about this- there is clearly a defect and no fix from the company except to keep buying replacements until they rust and break again.

Coffee Tastes Great with Bad Handle

We really like this coffee maker other than the issue that happened this morning. There's a rust forming at the handle and it became the weak spot and broke off. Will have to use it without the handle until we decide to buy the replacement at some point..
