Product Description
Product Description
There's nothing quite like a fresh coffee to kick start your day, for a quick pick-me-up in the afternoon or to enjoy after a relaxing meal. The Morphy Richards Cafe Mattino filter coffee maker has a programmable timer so you can always wake up to freshly brewed coffee, and its 12-cup capacity makes it great for entertaining. The anti-drip device means there's no mess, while the easy-to-clean filter makes the Cafe Mattino easy to look after, so you can get the most out of your coffee maker. The heat-resistant carafe and thermostatic hotplate make sure the coffee stays hot so that second cup is always ready.

Can't disagree more with the other reviews - I love the machine.
The machine brews good coffee, I've had a couple of different blends in there and they all taste fine. There is a taste of plastic on the first brew, but if you flush the machines out 3 times as stated in the instructions it tastes OK. I went a little further and ran a brew with just water through the machine twice, then filled the tank with water and a little lemon juice (you know how lemon kills microwave smells etc...), let the water stand in the tank for an hour, then ran the lemon-juice/water mix through as a brew. Use proper lemon juice, not some lemon flavoured essence or whatever. I can't taste any plastic at all now.
But, most importantly - it keeps the coffee HOT HOT HOT for hours. There is a two-hour auto shut-off (which can't be disabled as far as I know) but if you switch the machine back on it re-heats the coffee soon enough. My old machine had a small hotplate and the coffee would go luke-warm after an hour or so and I used to hate that. The size of the plate on this machine is much bigger and the entire base of the jug sits on the plate (as opposed to some machines where just the middle of the jug sits on the base). This morphy richards model is much better than my last machine.
Two slight critisms. First, filling the tank is tricky - the opening is at the rear of the unit and the gap isn't very wide. Use the supplied jug and pour slow. Also, be careful condensation doesn't run down the back of the unit when you lift the lid while the unit is still hot. Second critism is that it comes out the box with a big transfer sticker on the front above the buttons and by the clock - this sticker covers the front of the unit and although it peels off OK leaves a mark which might take a while to fully get off.

This is great! First of all it arrived immediately (within 24 hours) even though I expected the standard delivery!!!
The coffee is fantastic; I used the same brand I used with my previous coffee maker and it tastes a 100 times better. It works extremely fast, as it takes less then 10 minutes to make 12 cups of coffee. It is easy to use and programming is very simple. However what makes this little coffee maker endearing, is that we can wake up in the morning and have our excellent coffee waiting for us, freshly made and steaming. Seriously, we loved it so much we even named it, it is now called Godfrey!
As with all coffee makers, it requires cleaning with warm soapy water before use and it should first be used only with water. I believe that if these instructions are fallowed and the machine is properly cleaned after every use, you won't have any problems with the taste of your coffee; I know I did not.
The only negative is that because its size is not specified in the product description, it was a little bigger then expected, but that is not a major problem.

Bought this even after reading the past reviews but I thought it was still looking like a good buy and I think it is. The only bad thing about it IS the condensation once its been used it DOES run down the back of machine so be advised and place a cloth at the back of it before you lift the lid !! It keeps it hot and its soo simple to use and clean, it looks good and Im very happy with it, simple timer and i didnt get any plastic taste from my machine nor did I have any annoying stickers on it. I didnt find a problem filling it with water either.. just use a jug !! So thats my opinion and I would buy another 1.

Stopped Working After a Week
This worked well for the first week. The coffee is ok, it's tricky to fill, but I could deal with that. I can't deal with the fact it's broken already though. Read more

This is a good filter coffee maker which prduces good hot coffee and which turns off the hotplate after 2 hours and so does not stew the coffee. Read more

I don't recommend this
Is a hot cup of coffee to much to ask for? If I wanted to have to put it in the microwave, why bother brewing it fresh to begin with?
