This is awesome! I haven’t used all the features yet but it comes with a recipe book like ninja always does it comes with really clear instructions and is easy to use you don’t need paper filters unless you want to use them (size4) it can brew dang near anything the only thing it is missing is a grinder and a way to hook it up to a water source. I would have paid 1-200 more for that - coffee is super hot and super good. ? carafe is awesome not too big and very sturdy - can’t wait to use the milk frother. Awesome design and value for money for sure I researched coffee pots for almost a year and this was THE ONE. Can do tea or coffee has separate baskets for each and separate scooper options.
