After 1.5 years of use, it takes a long time for 2 cups of coffee. No matter how many descalings I have done, it did not improve. Overall, I think modern filter coffee machines are only functional for a maximum of 2 years.

I have always bought Philips filter coffee machines. This one disappointed me. The water falls into the filter faster than it can pass through the coffee and enter the container, resulting in water and coffee coming out of the filter.

Personally, I have not changed the amount of coffee I put in my coffee machine for years, and the amount of water is also the same, because as I mentioned above, all my coffee machines were Philips. Finally, I use the same brand of filter. Unfortunately, I do not know what the problem is.

Unfortunately, I do not know if there is a solution to the problem.

Not suitable for left-handed people.
The jug does not have a removable lid, so it takes up a lot of space inside the dishwasher.

The coffee is made very quickly, it keeps it at a very good temperature if you don't want it right away. I removed one star not for the coffee maker but for Philips. The reason: I had bought this coffee maker again one day, the jug fell and broke but I couldn't find just the jug. So I bought the same one again and if something happens to me, I will have the other one as a backup unless the jug breaks again :(

Good coffee maker, makes good coffee quickly. If you come across it on sale, it's worth buying. One disadvantage is that it requires a specific way of pulling the carafe to prevent it from dripping on the base. (Personally, it doesn't bother me.)
