Perfect Coffee Maker For Singles

Date of Review:  Jun 10, 2001
The Bottom Line: This kitchen workhorse makes 2 to 4 cups of decent coffee in less than 5 minutes, with easy clean-up; perfect for the smaller household or empty-nesters.
Review: When this former night owl wannabe rocker started real world Nursing School classes, coffee became an essential. Long before the heyday of Blue Mountain and designer blends, and while places like Starbucks and the local favorite, Jitters were mere...

Just bought the Farberware FCP240 - Yowza yowza!

Date of Review:  Feb 27, 2005
The Bottom Line: The best among percolators.
Review: My 8-cup Farberware version of this FCP240 gave out after about 5 years. At least I THINK it gave out. I went to plug it in, and it sparked (shorted?), and blew the fuse for that circuit. So....I didn't want to plug it in again. I don't blame the...

Finally... Hot, Strong Coffee from an Inexpensive Coffeemaker!

Date of Review:  Oct 7, 2009
The Bottom Line: It's pretty obvious that I am in love with my percolator, and I couldn't wait to tell the world about it!
Review: I've had a love-hate relationship with coffeemakers since I moved to the Rocky Mountains. Hot coffee is an anomaly at altitude ~ because water boils at a lower temperature than it does at sea level, I haven't experienced the total pleasure of truly...

Coffee Dorks Beware!

Date of Review:  Feb 13, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you are tired of lukewarm drip coffee from machines that need replaced every two years, give it a try.
Review: I should preface this review by stating that it is for a 50 year old model of this coffee maker. Faberware has been making this for a long time, and I recently latched onto an ancient one of these. The only difference in all these years has been the...

Heating Element Flaws

Date of Review:  May 24, 2003
The Bottom Line: Ok for occasional use, buy a better unit from another company with a timer, temp control, and closed carafe for every day use.
Review: I've owned all three sizes in this line. The 4, 8, and 12, cup units. Before Farberware was bought out by Salton, customer service was better. The heating elements on all three models rust and rot away from "NORMAL" use and care in about a year of...

just right ...

Date of Review:  May 25, 2005
The Bottom Line: great little coffee maker
Review: My main priorities in getting a new coffee maker were:
+ coffee is comparable to my french press
+ easier maintenance than french press

After reading the reviews here, i ordered one of these little appliances online. It took a...

Still Perfect Coffee After Over Three Years

Date of Review:  Dec 29, 2007
The Bottom Line: For a small coffee percolator, I would have a difficult time finding a better one than this.
Review: I am the only coffee-drinker in my house and I only drink one or two cups a day. By my definition, two measured cups equal one coffee-cup sized mug . I am very finicky about that one cup.





After being treated for...

My Perky Little Breakfast Mate!

Date of Review:  Dec 19, 2000
Review: Anyone who has read my reviews knows how I love Farberware percolators. I went to drip-style back in the late seventies when the Mr. Coffee machines got popular, used them for years along with two of the Bunn machines. When my last Bunn died, I...

Farberware perculator

Date of Review:  Oct 2, 2007
Review: I will never again buy a Farberware perculator, lasted
a little over a year and will not heat up or perk.
Farberware is not the degree or grade of excellence
it once was.
