Customer Reviews


Don't personally use this product, I purchased it for my mom who was used to a heavy-gauge aluminum old-school percolator. According to her, this new one makes a decent cup of coffee. As for the item itself, it is well constructed of stainless steel (although thin) with a heavy glass viewing bubble. The basket ; stem are adequate but could've been machined better to fit more precisely in the decanter. The handle is made of a "permawood" material which I assume will not split or crack and helps the unit to "look" old-school. Dishwasher safe according to the description.

Positives:
This coffee maker has no plastic parts (which can be poisonous).
It appears to be made of chromium steel. A very strong magnet was able to stick to all of the metal parts except for the percolator tube. I was afraid it might be aluminum, so I partially submerged it into bleach for an hour and I didn't find any corrosion. If you submerge half a piece of aluminum foil into bleach for an hour you'll see it has corroded. The percolator tube might be nickel chromium steel, which isn't magnetic. I wish there was an easy way to determine what type of metal something is made of.
Negatives:
1. Made in China. I'll have to test it for lead.
2. The lid will swing open while you're pouring your coffee. This is a major design flaw. The glass lid is really hot. If you try to use it to hold the lid shut while you're pouring coffee, you'll get burned. You'll either have to hold it shut with a cloth or waste some coffee and not tip the pot over enough for the lid to open.
3. The metal is weak. A slight bump into a bowl left the coffee maker dented.
I'm giving it 3 stars because it appears to be non-toxic. No plastic or aluminum.
