This compact brewer is an absolute dream for my husband and me, providing just the right amount for our two large morning cups of coffee.

Its size is ideal, not imposing yet capable, and there has been no malfunction to speak of. The cord length is just right, allowing for easy placement without cluttering the counter.

Nice coffee maker, love the yellow color and 5 cups is all we need so it’s a nice small size!

I received my coffee pot yesterday and went ahead and set it up brewed a pot and I can honestly say it came out hot and fast. The overall style of this coffee maker is adorable I got it in the teal and the coffee pot itself is super cute perfect size for one person I believe it's five cups so it was perfect with breakfast I finished the whole thing without having to get up to refill my mug. As I've only used this item once I don't know what the lifespan will be but I did purchase it because the last one that I paid $20 for in a different brand just stopped working the other day. So I'm hoping for more than 6 months out of this one. But we shall see. So far I really like everything about it.

Certainly is a cute little coffeemaker. I’d call it a mini coffeemaker but it can make 2 big mugs of coffee and 5 small size cups (each ~6 to 7 oz.). I put 2 1/2 cups of water in the carafe which made one good size mug of coffee. I thought by the time the coffee came out some of the water would have evaporated but apparently I was wrong. It still gave me the 2 1/2 measurement in my mug which is a good thing. Product came in new working condition. Great for 1-2 people household and for those with small to tiny kitchens. I didn’t expect it to be so cute and nice for such a cheap price. I mean of course it’s not anywhere top of the line, you get what you pay for so for $19-$21 it is a great little coffeemaker and the flavor of my strong coffee is robust, just the way it should be. I use my own paper filters (#2 filters fit perfectly) since it’s a hassle having to clean the permanent filter that comes with it after each use. I highly recommend, you really can’t go wrong with putting down $20 for this coffeemaker. And if you don’t like it at least you didn’t spend a lot of money.

UPDATE: This is a little embarrassing. I wrote a review raving about this coffeemaker and especially the color saying how much I loved it -- but it's the color that prompted me to return my kitchen to the way it was before I bought it: white (see photo). I found that the strength of the teal color distracted me even though it picked up the same color used in other places in my kitchen. So, now I'm packaging the coffeemaker to donate it to Goodwill. Why am I still giving this 5 stars? Because the coffeemaker deserves the praise I gave it just a few days ago. If your kitchen can be improved by a very strong color, go for it. Original review: I had a Keurig in this same shade of teal and loved it, but had to return it because I ended up being allergic to it (long story having to do with K cups and foil lids releasing chemicals when the hot water hits them), so I searched Amazon for a coffee maker that would bring teal back into my kitchen. The coffee maker arrived today and right away I ran two pots of water through it as directed in the instructions. After the first potful I lifted the lid and discovered that steam causes hot water to form on the underside of the lid. I got burned (no big deal,, but not something I want to happen again). The water runs down from the lid and now I know to just let it run and not reach for the filter till it has stopped. The coffee pot is very easy to use, and also lightweight. It's almost like a toy. But it makes good coffee. I can't use the reusable filter because I don't have a disposal and a plumber warned me not to dump coffee grounds down the sink. I bought #2 cone filters to use instead and they work great. In fact the filter was better than the paper filters I'd been using in a Mr. Coffee machine. By that, I mean the coffee was a little less bitter (I like some bitterness from my Folger's Colombian coffee, but reducing it a bit tastes good). The cone filter fit perfectly and was easy to remove and dump. I'm not sure what the cone filter is made of. It doesn't feel like paper. Hard to describe so I won't even try. Because the coffee maker is not fancy and has just an on/off button you can use it with one of Amazon's smart plugs that lets you turn it on and off via your voice. I like that because as soon as I wake up, I tell Alexa to turn on the coffee and by the time I make it to the kitchen, the coffee is already made. I did that for years when I was using my Mr. Coffee (the model with just a on/off switch). I'll probably buy another of these coffee makers just so I'll have one on hand to replace the one I got today if it ever stops working. I hate it when I find something I love and then when I need a new one, I find out it's no longer available. Ditto for the matching toaster which I also received today. I worried the colors would be slightly different because of how the photos looked online, but I worried for nothing because they're perfect twins. The company also offers several other small appliances in the teal color.

Had it 5 months then the button broke.

Love the compact design and color. Makes great tasting coffee fast. We use paper filter and it works great. Good quality and the white/gold design, makes it so unique.

I LOVE my new Holstein 5 cup coffee maker. It's small, compact and cute. Adds a little pop of color to your countertop. The things I consider plus features might not be for everyone though.. If you... 1. Want a clock or a timer for your coffee to run, this is not for you. I prep my pot the night before and flick it on first thing when I wake up. I never used the scheduled drip function on my old makers. So I was happy to not have this and yet another digital clock staring at me in my kitchen. 2. Have a big family, or are a glutton for caffeine? You'll be making more than one pot. It's not the fastest coffee maker, and it only makes ~5 cups if you prep it for that. I have a habit of finishing the pot. With larger makers I was over consuming on the daily. It was just there. This is the perfect daily ration of coffee to get me through the day. 3. No frills, no features. On. Off. Coffee grounds in, caffeinated lifeblood out. No reading a manual or button pressing to figure out how to get coffee in your face in the morning. On. Off. Coffee in your cup. Big win for me. Comes with a scoop, a filter, and a cute little carafe. Otherwise it's just a plastic casing around a hotplate. So be advised you have to manually turn it on and off so you don't have a hot plate perpetually running. If you're forgetful for something like that, also maybe not for you. It's cute. Good for a 1 person coffee drinkin' household. And you can't argue the price. Pull it out of the box, wipe it down, fill it up and you're good to go.
