Pros coffee flavor; ease of use
Cons slow pour carafe
Recommended it? Yes

My wife forced me to trash my 19 year old Melitta coffee maker. There was nothing wrong with it, it treated me well, I resisted. So she bought the MT500 as a gift. I'm enjoying the new based on:

1. Features
- the Thermol carafe is a great idea. If you're still using an old glass... Read full review »

Cons a little pricey!
Recommended it? Yes

after having problems with almost every coffee maker we have purchased over the last 5 years i am happy to say that this unit has been truly great!!! it makes great very hot coffee, and stays hot in the carafe. i'm not sure it stays as hot (for 4 hours) as they say it does. the coffee is so good it...

I would give it to Good Will, but I have a conscience. Ready to trash.

Pros It has a small batch feature, which is nice. Otherwise, I can't think of any.
Cons Water filter system makes the coffee taste like something from 3-mile island. Carafe...
Recommended it? No

After six months or so, if you don't position the carafe just right, it overflows. I began using a magnifying glass to look at the carafe/brewer connection to see if drips were coming out. If they were, I had to turn the carafe's position to prevent that, which is annoying at six in the morning... Read full review »

Best Coffee I've Ever Had

Pros Best tasting coffee, Looks beautiful on the kitchen counter
Cons Hard to read water level indicator.
Recommended it? Yes

Actually, I don't drink coffee, I just love its smell. I'm quoting my partner, whom I bought the coffee maker for on his birthday. We've had it for a year with no problems.

This product brews the coffee in a slightly different manner than the regular heating element type, so it took him a... Read full review »

Best coffeemaker on the market

Pros Fast, hot and excellent tasting coffee. Unbreakable carafe
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

This coffeemaker brews a great cup of coffee and there is almost no heat-loss during the brewing cycle. The carafe keeps coffee hot for hours, even more so when I rinse my carafe with hot water prior to making a pot.
Furthermore, I can pull the carafe out while it is brewing and pour a quick... Read full review »

Pros It looks great. The coffee if hot and flavorful. It's very easy to use.
Cons So far, we really don't have any complaints about this machine.
Recommended it? Yes

My husband and I have been using the Capresso MT500 for a couple of weeks now. We are thoroughly satisfied with it. We tried some other brands that either did not make the coffee hot enough or didn't fit between my counter top and the bottom of the cabinet. It is a great size, and makes terrific...

Pros Makes coffee quickly
Cons Noisy, messy, high maintenance.
Recommended it? No

After having coffee makers from Braun, Krups, Cuisinart, Sunbeam, etc. we decided to try the MT500 on advice from our coffee store. What a mistake. After 6 months I am ready to toss it in the trash. The first hint of problems started with the coffee temperature. The first cup of coffee is warm... Read full review »

Capresso MT500 coffee maker

Pros Solid and attractive machine with clean lines and professional look.
Cons Difficult to read water level and add water. Takes lots of grounds for strong coffee.
Recommended it? No

My husband and I drink quite alot of coffee--and we like it very strong! We grind our own arabica beans--usually ordered from Britt Coffee in Costa Rica, and we prefer the dark roast process.
Unfortunately, although the Capresso MT500 is a very attractive machine, it is just a little to... Read full review »

Pros Solid construction, clean layout, and it brews super hot coffee.
Cons Price.
Recommended it? Yes

I have owned about seven different coffee makers and none of them compares to the Capresso MT500. I was tired of burnt coffee, carafes that spill when you pour, and cheap construction. The price of the MT500 may be steep, however, the coffee it brews is the best in the business.

Pros Fast brewing. Carafe keeps coffee hot! Removable brew basket.
Cons Noisy! Controls are poorly placed. Large lid Variable coffee
Recommended it? Yes

When our Braun of 10 years finally began acting squirrely we decided to look for a new machine. I'd read about the new Capresso machines and decided that we liked the idea of a thermos. This is no ordinary thermos, it's very stylish and keeps the coffee hot for at least 4 hours...longer if you... Read full review »
