The water area (translucent c shaped are ) is marked nicely with minimum and maximum levels of water,filling it to the minimum level give you once cup of nice black coffee.

The powder holding area also consists of a valve like system, so if you have not place the jug/jar below it while you coffee is being made, or you want to take out the coffee jug in between to pour some coffee, then the coffee does not drip down, it only comes out when the jug is place below it.

The water pours in small shots, or ‘glurgs’ that’s how it sounds…. so you don’t have to worry if you have to take out the jug in between, but don’t keep it out for long if you have put loads of water to loads of coffee. Also the filter area is not too big and you don’t want you coffee to be spilled all over the place.

Almost one big cup of coffee is made if you fill the water chamber is filled to the minimum level. And that is my one time requirement.

Interestingly enough the coffee maker comes with its own hot plate (just below the where the jar is kept), so even if you forget that you had placed coffee to brew,  coffee collects into the jar and still remains hot because of the hot plate under it. Of course you have to leave it switched on

So finally this cool coffee maker is one that will give you really nice hot cups of coffee.

So the  this coffee maker:

Pro’s:

1. Very easy to use.
2. The color combination is nice, white and lite lilac I think.
3. To easy to clean… I would say no cleaning will be required if you are going to use it twice or thrice a day.
4. Hot plate keeps the coffee hot, not just warm.
5. Fresh coffee is ready in almost 3 to 5 minutes.
6. If you like tea, you can try putting tea leave, It can be used to make black tea, even though I do not drink tea, I Have made tea once or twice for my parents, they said it tasted better than regular gasr stove tea.

Con’s:

1. Not meant for making shots, look for some other coffee maker.
2. The box pack comes with two paper filters only. Could not find any more paper filter anywhere else even with the service center.
3. You will need to buy the permanent filter form the service center at extremely high cost. (I paid around Rs.280/- (INR) for the same)
4. The glass jar is really fragile, have to be extra careful while handling it.

Others:

1. Power Consumption: 650 Watts AC
2. Capacity 600 ml.
