Simply the finest coffee machine you will ever own.

Pros Excellent coffee. Great styling. And a carafe.
Cons Oh, it's a spendy little number....
Recommended it? Yes

So my grind-n-brew died. Finally happened, I can't complain. Actually, I'm not going to miss the early morning aircraft-taking-off noise of the grinder switching on. Or the horrendous beeping of the thing when it was done. Or the fifty dang parts I had to clean.

But I still needed a new... Read full review »

Capresso MT 500 Coffee Maker: The Cadillac of drip coffee makers

bypuckmugger Apr 11, 2004

Pros Best brew, great appearance, solid construction
Cons Quality doesn't come cheap
Recommended it? Yes

First off, let me say that drip coffee isn't my favorite way to make coffee. A French press will give you a much better cup. However it isn't always practical or convenient to press coffee. The Capresso MT 500 might be the second best way to make coffee in my opinion, but hey, I'm picky. This is... Read full review »

Pros excellent coffee, super easy to use, attractive machine!
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

This is my third thermal carafe coffee maker this year. The Zojirushi I started with died after six weeks. I moved on to a Barista from Starbux that I loathed and returned. After reading many good reviews of this Capresso on epinions and some coffee snob site, I decided to pony up the cash and try... 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 »

The Best? I dunno...

byshatz Aug 28, 2002
17 Helpfuls 18 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
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 »

Adequate Thermal Carafe Machine

byrocketwench Sep 24, 2007
16 Helpfuls 17 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Comes with mesh filter, better-than-average quality coffee
Cons Small capacity, doesn't keep coffee hot for long, price
Recommended it? Yes

This coffee maker was purchased with a store refund to replace a Cuisinart DTC-975 12-Cup Coffee Maker that was determined to erupt all over my counter and floor. We have been trying to find a good thermal carafe machine, and I am hoping we have found a keeper.

The machine is reasonably... Read full review »

Don't Waste Your Money

Pros Insulated carafe. Looks nice.
Cons Too easily makes a mess. Way too complicated.
Recommended it? No

I bought this product, despite the high price, because I liked the idea of the insulated carafe as well as the built-in timer. It's also a very good-looking machine that you don't mind sitting out on your counter.

Although the coffee is good, it isn't extraordinary. In fact I think it... Read full review »

The best of the best for the home!

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 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 »

Worst Coffee Maker I have ever owned

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 »
