coffee and tea dripper

I like it a lot and it's very inexpensive compared to other porcelain sets I have seen(I have seen porcelain filter holders costing more than this whole set!). I bought Melitta no.1 filters and they work okay but overflow a little too easy for me, and they require more attention since you have to keep filling it over time to prevent overflow. I might try some no.2 cone filters, I have a feeling they might be the best fit. UPDATE: I did get some Melitta no.2 filters and they are the perfect fit, and that's what I will get in the future. Before I bought the no.2s, I used some Melitta no.4 cone filters and they work fine and prevent overflow but they do extend way above the rim. I don't recommend buying no.4s, but if you already have some you can use them to see how you like it before buying no.2s. Some people might perfer the no.4s if they don't aim very well. ;)

Just be aware it is a small coffee maker and that the coffee doesn't stay hot too long in it. I find myself... Read more

I am so happy with this little drip coffee maker and it worked perfectly. I bought the #2 coffee filters as the other reviewer recommended and they worked out just right.

I can only drink decaf which my husband does not like so this little coffee maker is perfect for me...also the 2 cups of coffee is all I need.

I fill the little pot with water then pour that into my water kettle so that I never have to worry about over-filling. Once my coffee is brewed I put it on a cup warmer to prevent it from getting cold.

For the price you cannot beat this little drip coffee maker. It was just what I was looking for.

I have a plastic Melita filter which I was using with mugs at my house, but often I want two cups of coffee and so I brew into two mugs and put a saucer on the 2nd to keep it warm. I was looking for a porcelain pot into which I could make a couple cups of coffee and bring with me to my desk. This pot is much smaller than I expected. I measured its volume and this is 16 oz if you really push it which means I can get 1.25 large mugs. I am on the fence about whether or not to return this... it really does not provide any new functionality to me. I knew I would not get two giant mugs out of this, but that missing 3 oz really making the difference for me. I say spend less on a plastic drip cone for your favorite mug.
