Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Braun KF550-BK AromaDeluxe 10-Cup Coffeemaker, Black
Customer Review: Don't buy it - filters cost more than the coffee maker!
Summary: 1 Stars
This is my third Braun coffee maker in 20 years, which demonstrates Braun's reliability and my loyalty. HOWEVER learn from my mistake - when I purchased this unit two years ago, the filters were inexpensive. Now they are very hard to find and third party sellers are price gouging. Read the reviews on the filters and run screaming - use your own filtered water and avoid this model.
Braun + Brita = price gouging - SHAME on you both.

You can't go wrong with this Coffee Maker from Braun, a trusted coffee maker pro. With the replaceable Brita water filter, the flavor is instantly improved. This Coffee Maker even reminds you when it's time to replace the filter.

This sleek hour-glass-shaped model comes with all the amenities: a sure-grip handle on the carafe, a pause-and-serve feature for mid-brew pouring, a push-button release for the swing-out filter basket, a removable gold-tone screen filter (or, use a No. 4 paper filter), a water-level indicator, and a 2-hour automatic shutoff. What really makes coffee from this machine taste better is the replaceable Brita water filter; it significantly reduces chlorine and prevents calcification (scale) buildup. A handy dial acts as a reminder to replace the filter every two months, or simply install the space compensator if the filter is not desired. All removable parts of the coffeemaker are dishwasher-safe. This Braun product measures 13 by 10 by 7 inches, and is covered by a one-year warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri
