Overview
A 14-cup programmable drip coffee maker with a reusable, illuminated fill-line filter that measures grounds without a scoop, a 70 oz removable reservoir and touch controls.
A touch panel replaces the usual dials and buttons, and Auto Pause and Pour lets you pull the carafe mid-brew without dripping onto the warming plate. It offers a 24-hour delay brew and a keep-warm setting adjustable up to 4 hours.
- 14-cup capacity, 70 oz removable reservoir
- Touch-activated display, no dials or knobs
- 24-hour programmable delay brew
- Auto pause and pour mid-brew
Who it's for
Households wanting a full 14-cup pot with programmable brew scheduling. Less suited to anyone who has had touch-panel coffee makers fail on them before.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Several owners call this an upgrade over previous coffee makers they've owned, pointing to the no-scoop illuminated filter and easy cleanup as standouts. A recurring complaint across reviews is that the machine stops brewing partway through a pot or the keep-warm plate quits working after months of regular use, with at least one owner reporting failure within two years.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.

- 24-hour delay brew and up to 4-hour keep-warm
- Stops brewing partway through pot after months of use

Performance notes
The reusable cone filter has embedded fill lines so grounds go straight from the bag with no scoop needed, and Auto Pause and Pour detects a removed carafe and halts the drip automatically. One owner traced an early-shutoff issue to the machine's built-in cleaning cycle and found a vinegar rinse resolved it.
