Product Reviews: Braun KFK10L Replacement Carafe |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: finally found it Comments: searched the local variety stores and box home furnishing stores, no1carries this carafe anymore. found it on amazon, shipped without breaking and now able to drink my morning coffee again. |
Rating: 1 (out of 5) Summary: oops!!!!!! Comments: Unfortunately the item I purchased was for a newer model of Braun coffeemaker. As a result it was wider and shorter, thus unable to activate the release to let brewed coffee flow into the missized carafe. |
Rating: 3 (out of 5) Summary: Closed however no cigar Comments: Yes, the carafe is just fine HOWEVER mine arrived without the hinged spout cover CONTRARY to the picture. I have found the spout cover useful in the more than several carafes I have gone through in the 15 years I have had my TRUSTY Braun coffee maker. It inhibits evaporation of the coffee, delaying the bitterness which occurs if the coffee is kept warm in the carafe for over 1 hour. |
Rating: 3 (out of 5) Summary: great coffee however these carafes are thin-skinned, poorly engineered, sensitive souls Comments: We're 20+ year users of the Braun Aromaster 10-cup Coffee Maker. It makes great coffee. Out of principle, we will not update to anything fancier. Who needs more bells and whistles than this? It does not wake you, schedule automatically, turn you into a barista, read your e-mail, require special thimble-sized inserts, etc. It dependably makes great coffee. That's all, and all we need.
however the carafe? It's a notoriously thin-skinned, poorly engineered, sensitive soul. Logically, yes, we should upgrade our coffeemaker because the economics of standing pat on the Aromaster 10-cup doesn't compute: looking back at our ordering records here on Amazon, I see we're going through these carafes now at the rate of2e 13 months. The glass cracks at the slightest tap. The little apparatus designed to hold the top on to the carafe is made of cheap, narrow plastic. That part is guaranteed to break after - at best -3months. After that, the covering just sort of balances on the top of the carafe and serves little purpose other than to direct the brewed coffee into the hole. It says something about our faithfulness to the Aromaster that we stick with it despite this Carafe Annuity. |
Rating: 5 (out of 5) Summary: can not live without it!! Comments: What's life without a great cup of coffee? This replacement carafe filled the bill in all respects. It sits firmly on the base, is well aligned with the downspout, thus no splattering. I love it.
