Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Melitta MEPT1W Perfect Time Coffeemaker
Customer Review: Decent coffee, delicate clock
Summary: 2 Stars
This seemed like a nice-looking coffee-maker with a really cool clock feature, so I bought it. The clock synchronization kicked in almost immediately; unfortunately, the daylight savings time adjustment never happened, or I'm too close to the border of the Eastern time zone, and I was forced to set the unit to the Eastern time zone even though I live in the Central. After the time changed it seemed like all was well, until the filter overflowed the first time. The carafe must be positioned perfectly for brewing, not a difficult task since the carafe fits snugly in the unit, so I guess I was careless. Also, take care positioning the paper filters. I noticed some time later that the clock was running 4 minutes behind. It has overflowed one more time since, and now the clock is twelve minutes behind. There is no manual adjustment for the clock.As I said, aesthetically this is a beautifully designed coffee-maker, however, the carafe must be removed and replaced in the unit with no sidelong motion whatsoever, so if space is at a premium, bear in mind that not even your cup can be in front of the coffeemaker unless your counter is deep.
The unit does make a decent cup of coffee very quickly, although I wish it had a "strength" adjustment. It's still brewing coffee for me, but I originally thought I could use it to set my other clocks in the house, and that's out of the question because it's currently synched to some alien time zone.
