OXO Brew 9 Cup Coffee Maker

Verdict

A top-tier, SCA-certified drip machine that’s genuinely simple to operate while still producing excellent, consistent coffee. It’s best for buyers who want fast, precise full-pot (and small-batch) brewing with a thermal carafe, and can live with the large footprint, hand-wash-only cleanup, and premium price.
