Good product
I love perculator coffee makers because you get HOT coffee. I had a different brand that had some poorly designed features. What I really like about this West Bend pot is the water level indicator, (although it starts at 8 cups). The only wierd problem is that every 10 min. or so it momentarily starts re-perking, to keep the coffee warm. If you don't remove the coffee ground holder it will send the hot water back through the grounds.
Good percolator with cheap plastic top
For the money, this percolator could at least have a top (clear spout) that isn't made out of plastic. I paid $60 for this percolator and within 9 months the clear, plastic spout was broken (disintegrated from the heat). I don't leave the percolator on longer than 30 minutes. The part from West Bend is $1.99 with shipping of $7.99 plus tax. Why does it cost $7.99 to ship such a small part? I am disappointed with the quality of this West Bend item.
It is a good percolator
Makes a good cup of coffee but you will need to adjust the amount of coffee grinds for your taste (stronger or weaker). Also the coffee comes out really hot (no kidding) and it stays hot for awhile. The cup indicator only shows between 8 and 12 cups- should be 2 to 12. Very easy to use and clean. It would have been good to have a temp gauge so you could make the coffee perk longer or shorter (to make a stronger or weaker coffee). Like all other products- this product is made in China. But it seems to be built good but only time will tell. What happen to made in the U.S.A!
