Melitta Filter Coffee Machine, Look V Therm Perfection Model, Stainless Steel, Black, Art.No. 6769050

I don’t often write a review, but want to share how pleased I am with this coffee percolator. Firstly, everything is very easy access, clean and fill. I bought this machine for its timer option, which even for a technophobe like me, is really easy to set. My son gets up for work at 3.30am each morning, so knowing a steaming hot pot of coffee is waiting for him in the kitchen, I hope makes getting up that tiny bit easier. And it does make a steaming hot pot of coffee! I’m writing this review at 9.30am and have just poured a cup from the thermos jug the coffee filters into. While the coffee is no longer steaming, it was certainly still warm enough to drink. So for a delicious hot cup of coffee, a simple to use and set, elegant and very functional coffeemaker that doesn’t require those dreadful pods (which are appalling for the environment!), is good value and has the benefit of a really well insulated jug, I would highly recommend this coffee machine. Thank you Melitta 🌷

This replaces a five year old Melitta machine on which the water tank was accidentally damaged and a replacement not available. The only downside with that machine is that it had a large footprint and timer buttons were difficult to operate. I’ve always favoured the flask type pot as it seems to maintain the flavour of the coffee longer. This machine is better in every way and is a delight to use. Coffee is hot and fairly quickly dispensed. Easy filling due to the removable tank and an easy pour jug. Owned it for a couple of months and would buy another tomorrow. In black and silver it looks really smart and the timer is easy to use. Not the cheapest out there buy I think this machine represents excellent value for money Five Star Purchase!

I spent a long time looking at replacement coffee machines, when my old one stopped working. I decided on this model & haven't regretted it at all! The design is nice & compact, plus looks great in my kitchen (black & chrome go with my other items). The detachable water tank is easy to hold & carry & makes for filling it very convenient. It's also quick to make a full pot & relatively easy to clean, although the bottom of the water tank is difficult to get to... But, by far the best feature of this model (and the reason I chose it over other, cheaper, options) is the insulated jug. I was tired of making coffee with my old machine & then going to pour a cup later, to find it was cold (glass jug)! Not so with this jug! It keeps the heat for hours, so I can make coffee in the morning for breakfast & still have a hot cup for lunch & even later in the day! Amazing!

Looks nice. Makes good coffee, with a strength adjuster combined. Only takes a couple of minutes, as well. Easy to use and not a bad price.

Purchased beginning of July 2022, and have used it everyday since, often running multiple times a day. Timer function is really handy, and really easy to set up and change (you have an hour and minute button, so putting it back less than an hour is a bit of a pain). You can put any amount of water in the tank and it will make that much coffee. However making less than half a pot is a really inefficient use of coffee grounds so wouldn’t recommend if you want to make small amounts at a time. The thermos pot keeps it hot for at least 4 hours (6 if you don’t mind luke warm coffee). Fairly easy to clean, as most parts can be removed. The pot can be a bit fiddly to hand wash due to the rim. All in all, a really decent coffee machine for the price. Compared to a family member’s $200 US Ninja machine, I notice 0 difference in taste using the same coffee grounds.

We had the previous version of the Melitta Look coffee maker and it was great. It made excellent aromatic coffee. This new one is massively disappointing. It's interesting to see the number of people who have the same issue. We have tried adjusting everything. Using freshly ground coffee, increased amounts and less water - we still get a weak cup of coffee. Please don't get this expecting the same coffee as the before.

I haven't had a bad cup of coffee out of this yet. It's always perfectly brewed with no bitterness. However the thermal jug is pretty useless. The first cup of coffee is hot but after that it goes cold very quickly and needs reheating in the microwave. For a family or couple who plan on making a jug and finishing it in the hour it would probably be fine but for a solo coffee drinker like me it's pretty useless if a jug I prepare at 7.30am is cold by 10am. I also find the jug hard to clean. I'm used to a glass carafe that I can sling in the dishwasher but this insulated jug needs to be cleaned by hand and it also needs to be dried very thoroughly by hand. If I just leave it to drain water gets trapped in the jug making the next days coffee even colder.

This was a gift for my husband and he uses it daily. The coffee stays warm for quite some time after being made. The machine is quiet and easy to use. It looks very stylish and is compact.
