Pros:

We have had the Krups FME4-14 12-Cup Coffee maker for a number of months now and have found it makes a super cup of coffee and it is easy to program. We love the fact that we can pour a cup of coffee without dripping here and there, which is a rarity in the coffee carafe world. We have found the water indicator is easy to see and works well and we are very impressed with what this has to offer.

Cons:
Unlike coffee makers, we have owned in the past, we find the 1 – 3 cup option to be beneficial and unusual in the 12 cup models. It makes entertaining one or two people easy. We love the emergency empty pot shut off as this is a fire safety feature many coffee makers do not have.

Personally, I love the attractive design and sleek shape as it fits beautifully into my kitchen décor.

Cons:

The biggest complaint with this coffee maker is how cheaply the model seems to be built. We would have expected much better quality. The other big complaint is that only one side of the carafe has cup measurements, so it makes it extremely hard for left handed users and the tank barely holds the 12 cup measure so don’t overflow it, as it makes an awful mess on your counter.

The Final Verdict:

The Krups FME4-14 12-Cup Coffee maker is a great for anyone who enjoys a flavorful cup. Its programmable features enhance the experience as you can rise in the morning and smell fresh coffee brewing, and the built in safety and cleaning features make this a great deal.
