I am now a coffee snob!

My husband convinced me to purchase this coffee machine even though I thought it was far too much money for something that only makes coffee. I'm chagrined to admit that I now can't live without it. I am such a coffee snob now, that I have trouble drinking coffee away from home because it's just not up to my standards. The only issue I have with it is that the lid seals too well on the carafe. Sometimes I have to wait for someone strong to come home so I can get the lid to unscrew. It'll keep your coffee warm and unburned tasting for a whole day since it doesn't use a bottom burner, which I really love.
