Well-thought out innovationsI have been using this item just over a week. I like siphon-style coffee a lot, and have made it on and off for decades; I usually use it as an every-morning pot. To some extent, siphon coffee is siphon coffee; it's all pretty good. The KitchenAid has a number of interesting, well though out innovations though.
The magnetic latch is super. It means the rubber gasket is quite small and feels sturdy, thus eliminating a failure point of many competing siphon brewers. Every brewer I have had ultimately broke or cracked on the long glass siphon tube, so KitchenAid's replacing that tube with a stainless steel one is a great move. Then, because the siphon tube isn't an extension of the top chamber, the interface between the filter and the vacuum is exceptionally large, so the vacuum process goes very very fast realtive to anything I have used. As a result you'll need to use a little more coffee -- you don't have that long slow pull through the grounds, but, I _think_ that's a good thing? The coffee feels a little less bitter to me this way and I can't imagine you could easily clog up the filter.
I have not used the cloth filter and probably won't. I have twice made the mistake of thinking the filter was locked into place when it wasn't, ugh. But I think I am getting the hang of it and it isn't a serious long-term problem.
The only innovation not so good is pouring out the last cup or two is not great; it's tricky. I have only made 6 or 8 cup batches because traditionally siphon brewers work poorly for small quantities, but, maybe I'll give 4 cups a try and update this.
The whole thing feels solid and well built.

Just WOW!I received this as a gift and was so happy with the coffee. I’m a coffee addict and Starbucks was my daily go to. Not anymore. This machine is simple and the coffee is superb. And I don’t have to drive to get a inferior cup of joe. No joking.

Very GoodMakes excellent cup of coffee. Easy to clean (I do not use the cloth filters). I use Kitchenaid burr coffee grinder and get great results.

Death to Nespresso VertuolineI own a total of 3 Nespresso machines - and then there is this baby! I post a video to Facebook - reminding my friends about the machine and how awesome it is! I would NEVER replace this unless another Siphon.

Excellent product, great coffeeI used an antique stove-top vacuum pot with a glass filter for years because it’s the best cup of coffee ever... this automatic version takes the guesswork out, and also alleviates the problem of the upper bowl getting into a vapor lock and never draining. Really happy I found this! Now I can put the antique on display... My only negative comments are it’s messy cleaning the grounds out of the upper chamber because of the narrow opening, and it’s a bit pricey compared to competing brands, but I expect this well-made appliance from one of my favorite brands will stand the test of time, just like my fridge and stand mixer!

A modernized classic brewerSiphon brewing is still the best method to extract the delicate flavors of light roast coffees. Most modern siphon brewers take a lot of work, not this one. It's as close to automatic as it gets. It seems built to last, and is beautiful next to the matching KitchenAid Kettle.
