Well designed product for great price.
Well designed, easy to use, makes a good HOT coffee. Visible water reservoir makes it much easier to use than Cuisinart and the coffee tastes better too. Great price.

So-So
So far not terribly impressed. Very lightweight- doesn't seem very sturdy. The plastic around the sides and top are very thin. Just now I've been attempting to do the vinegar clean it suggested and noted a massive amount of condensation on the top at the edges where the lid opens and closes as well as from the pot (it steams up the front stainless steel as well as the clock). I'm surprised I don't see other reviews stating this and wonder if mine is defective? Also, it's crazy noisy. I've had a number of coffee makers that didn't make this much noise. Tried to add a video but Amazon doesn't give me that option.Will update after I use it a few times for actual coffee.***********************************************************************************************************************************Updated Review:Condensation/Steam on Stainless Steel Front (see photos): What I've found in regards to the condensation on the front is that it is relative to the amount of water you put into the carafe. If you add more than 4-5 cups, condensation due to steam (during and after brew) forms as stated previously (and noted in photos). This is an irksome issue, but I think for users may be a trade off– attractive but somewhat poorly thought through design or less attractive coffeemaker that doesn't have this problem. If it were a plastic, not stainless steel, front, I suspect it wouldn't be as troubling to me. You'd need to make your own decision based on your purchasing priorities.Coffee Filter: One of the perks of purchasing this coffeemaker is that I don't need paper filters. Another review specifically stated that the mesh filter was used without a paper filter, which is one reason I was sold on the machine. My previous DeLonghi coffeemaker had a metal mesh filter, which was far superior. This one is a bit stretchy (for lack of better word) and rather than being firm along its frame, poofs outward between segments of plastic. Though I cannot attest to its longevity, my suspicion is that it will need replacing (the DeLonghi never needed replacing). The need to perfectly "snap" the filter holder into place is problematic– it's not always clear if it has snapped because it doesn't have a snug fit or a sound to confirm, which I believe a previous reviewer mentioned.Coffee Brewing and Function: The coffee itself brews fairly well. The flashing red light others have mentioned is small and doesn't bother me at all. The need to push and hold the button to get it to brew has bitten me in the you-know-what a couple times– where the light on the clock has come on, but not the red light– I come back expecting coffee to be brewed and it hasn't begun. The complaint regarding it not being hot enough I do not understand. I feel DeLonghi is a superior brand by all accounts and my coffeemaker never made my coffee as hot as this machine. I guess if you plan to burn your mouth on first sip, most coffeemakers will disappoint you. I actually dislike the timer that turns it off at 2 hours– I'd like a bit more control over how long the machine stays on (some days I need three hours or do), though I realize this is common among coffeemakers.Quality: The body itself leaves a lot to be desired. I absolutely adore the form– it's cute, modern, and all around attractive. In fact, a friend took a picture so she could look it up for possible future purchase. The entire machine is so light and cheaply made with plastic, that I'd put the perks (timer, mesh filter, etc.) in a mid-ranged coffeemaker category, but the actual quality of these pieces at a low-range, Mr. Coffee, level. It's a $59.99 machine. If you're looking for bells and whistles, along with form, this is your maker. If you're looking for well made form and function across the board, I suspect you'll need to look at another– likely more expensive– maker.

Stops Brewing**Do Not Buy!
I have never written a negative review but this is the worst coffee pot you can buy. Please beware, the pot just stops working! It stopped a month after we bought it then we tried to fix it and it worked again for a while. Now it has completely stopped brewing and we cannot return it anymore. Just don't repeat our mistake!!

when you click the stars it states 2 stars means I don't like it. Well I actually do like the coffee ...
Hi, when you click the stars it states 2 stars means I don't like it. Well I actually do like the coffee maker, but I need to make sure you all to understand that after 3 months, and I have had it for 5 months, the warming plate started to rust, which makes my the bottom of the pot rusty. And rust usually is not a good thing and will eventually cause issues with the warming plate. Now spending $60 for a coffeemaker is not the highest and not the lowest, but it is $60 and I would have hoped the warming plate would have lasted longer than 3 months and of course I am beyond my return policy and thus stuck. Again, I like the style of the coffeemaker and it overall works great, but I cannot recommend it due to the warming plate issue. If the manufacturer fixes this, then I could. I hope this helps with your decisions.

Good design, but buy two or three at a time
Automatic coffee makers are like toasters. No matter what, they die. Prematurely. Since both depend on controlled short circuits, they're pretty much doomed. What I really liked about the Molla was the design. Unlike the Cuisinarts and Brauns I've had previously--which often overflowed and made a frightful mess--the Molla's design seemed to be foolproof, crucial in my case. However, it has died. I bought it on December 15, 2015, and it's perished on May 29. Not much of a life. It is flimsily made, and the instructions are incoherent. But at least it didn't overflow! I have an ancient Braun, no timer, a bit rickety, which still works. I guess I'll have to wait for my coffee in the morning, while I clean up after the cat, set out the tea things for my wife, and cut a piece of coffee cake. By then, the Braun will have made the coffee. When that goes, I'll relearn to boil water and buy a Chemex.

Great coffee delivered in style
I've owned the Molla PerfectDrip 12-Cup Coffee Maker for a little over 2 weeks, and I am, so far, completely satisfied with the product. I purchased it after my last two Mr. Coffees (both with thousands of positive reviews) quit working within a year or two of purchase.The Molla's sleek design attracted me to the product. I make coffee every morning and I appreciate the permanent filter which comes with it. It makes great coffee and it delivers it in style. I'm hoping this Coffee Maker serves me for a long time.

Very nice
I love this coffee maker. It looks and works great and it never seems to burn my coffee. The only negative thing I have noticed is that it's very easy to spill when pouring into your cup. I don't know if maybe the spout is short or what it is, but I have to be more careful with this carafe than any other one I use. If you're careful when pouring, you shouldn't have any other issues with this coffee maker.

Bad choice on my part choosing Molla
My coffee maker arrived with the front plate damaged/scratched, right near their logo on the stainless steel front-plate. Not upset with Amazon, but wondering if the manufacturer, Molla has any quality control in place. Never even tried it, but if they can't catch a visible quality issue, I wonder if their product is faulty as well.If you buy one, check it out immediately for quality manufacturing defects. I called Molla, they were of little help and sent me back to Amazon, who handled the situation with a refund. Bad choice on my part choosing Molla. Should have know, since I never heard of them before and they only make one coffee maker...
