I love the retro feel and look of this coffee maker and the taste of the coffee it perks. I love the chug-chuging sound if makes while brewing. It is extrememly well made with sturdy inner parts. The coffee is no better or no worse than coffee from drip coffee makers, just somehow a little different. And it takes up less room on the counter.

Our 8th one in 2 1/2 years :)

Buy them in the bed bath and beyond store. KEEP YOUR RECEIPT AND THE BOX !! and plan on returning it for a new one every 3-4 months if you use it every day.
It will stop percolating properly and the temp won t work right.
My wife picked up our 8th one yesterday. We don t like the fact that it only lasts for such a short time. But it s not that big of a deal for us to just bring it back and grab another one.
By returning every 3-4 months and getting a brand new one. You will eliminate the plastic parts from falling apart as well. It would be nice if they didn t use such cheap parts. But if everyone does what we do and returns them constantly, maybe they ll get the message. Happy Brewing!

Handle is still on ours and still makes hot water but doesn't perk any longer. Cleaned the stem and didn't help. Been pouring the water over the coffee grounds until we can get a new one

To the point, the previous one I had made in the USA was fabulous. The latest piece of junk coming out of China has thin stainless steel, reperks and finally the handle came off. Totally unsafe product

Purchased the 2-8 cup Perculator last Fall and it's already failed to live up to the Farberware reputation and the sad part, it's the 2nd one to fail in the last two years. Like others, we owned one for over 8 years before it finally met its demise (which is more acceptable than 5 months!)

Would you recommend?No

All my adult life I have had only the Farberware electric coffee pot. My first one lasted me over 20 years. Made in America.
So when it finally died, I treated myself to a new one, pricey but I figured it was worth it due to my past experience. WAS THAT A MISTAKE..... This 8 cup was Made in China.
I have only had it about a year and I am so disappointed, the coffee is warm and not the usual strength. I don't have the funds to replace, can't take it back because no one really cares after the sale. So now I am looking for parts and hopefully can fix it. You can bet... as a past lover of Farberware products that I will NEVER buy another one. Cheap and shoddy
I am also hunting for another brand.............

worst ever

Would you recommend?No

I loved this at first. It made coffee the way I remembered, fast and hot, for about two months. The water does perculate, but its barely warm. It will heat up. Anywhere from fifteen - sixty minutes later. Considering the price, the high cost of living these days notwithstanding, this is the worst purchase I have made in a very long time.

Faberware 2-8 Cup Coffee Percolator...My Favorite.

PostedJune 26, 2011

Picnic

from Anytown, USA

Would you recommend?Yes

This Percolator brews the best coffee I have ever made. It is the first Percolator I have used. Drip Coffee Makers can't hold a candle....It's too bad some reviewers here complained about "parts falling off". In some of those reviews the Percolator lasted two years or less. Well, that is what the warranty says, isn't it? There is a two year warranty. No parts have fallen off of my Percolator. When it is time, I will purchase the same brand percolator. No going back to drip.

Love this Coffee Percolator!!

AVAYogiRunner

from Houston, TX

Would you recommend?Yes

My husband and I bought this because we didn't like making coffee in a maker that had plastic parts that heated up and came into contact with the coffee we drank. I thought that a percolator might be slow and the old fashioned way to brew coffee.... WRONG! It only takes about 7 mins to percolate the perfect coffee. We love it and feel like it's more healthy since we don't have to worry about toxins from plastic parts. Everything that touches the coffee is stainless steel!

I was hand washing the coffee pot before I used it for the first time. As I was drying it the handle snapped off. Thankfully, it was not full of hot coffee at the time. So I suppose in addition to a detachable cord, you could say it also has a detachable handle. It's going back today.

Coffee pots with filters do not last six months. This cofffee pot has lasted me more then 2 years. Maybe some people like spending 19.99 for the "Quick" one's, but this one makes the coffee HOT as well as making coffee taste better!! If you like HOT coffee - purchase this Coffee Pot. Other wise, stick with the beginner one's!! WARM COFFEE
