Look V Therm Perfection

I don’t often write a review, but want to share how pleased I am with this coffee percolator. Firstly, everything is very easy access, clean and fill. I bought this machine for its timer option, which even for a technophobe like me, is really easy to set. My son gets up for work at 3.30am each morning, so knowing a steaming hot pot of coffee is waiting for him in the kitchen, I hope makes getting up that tiny bit easier. And it does make a steaming hot pot of coffee! I’m writing this review at 9.30am and have just poured a cup from the thermos jug the coffee filters into. While the coffee is no longer steaming, it was certainly still warm enough to drink. So for a delicious hot cup of coffee, a simple to use and set, elegant and very functional coffeemaker that doesn’t require those dreadful pods (which are appalling for the environment!), is good value and has the benefit of a really well insulated jug, I would highly recommend this coffee machine. Thank you Melitta 🌷

This replaces a five year old Melitta machine on which the water tank was accidentally damaged and a replacement not available. The only downside with that machine is that it had a large footprint and timer buttons were difficult to operate. I’ve always favoured the flask type pot as it seems to maintain the flavour of the coffee longer. This machine is better in every way and is a delight to use. Coffee is hot and fairly quickly dispensed. Easy filling due to the removable tank and an easy pour jug. Owned it for a couple of months and would buy another tomorrow. In black and silver it looks really smart and the timer is easy to use. Not the cheapest out there buy I think this machine represents excellent value for money Five Star Purchase!

Excellent heat retention. Brewed coffee at 10.30am, coffee still HOT at 3pm. Only deducted 1* because of the price. I would buy it again, though. Will wait to see how it fairs over the next few months

Purchased beginning of July 2022, and have used it everyday since, often running multiple times a day. Timer function is really handy, and really easy to set up and change (you have an hour and minute button, so putting it back less than an hour is a bit of a pain). You can put any amount of water in the tank and it will make that much coffee. However making less than half a pot is a really inefficient use of coffee grounds so wouldn’t recommend if you want to make small amounts at a time. The thermos pot keeps it hot for at least 4 hours (6 if you don’t mind luke warm coffee). Fairly easy to clean, as most parts can be removed. The pot can be a bit fiddly to hand wash due to the rim. All in all, a really decent coffee machine for the price. Compared to a family member’s $200 US Ninja machine, I notice 0 difference in taste using the same coffee grounds.

My old one broke and I like coffee machines that keep drinks hot with a flask rather than a hot plate. The old one was the same principle and was over 10 years old so owed us nothing. Like the way you can fill the water container itself from the tap as it comes off, decent handle on it too as its heavy when full. Makes a nice coffee ( obviously you need to buy decent filter coffee ) and keeps it hot for a good few hours without stewing it. Easy to clean and looks nice too. Timer function but we dont use that, just set it going when we get up. Coffee still drinkable at lunchtime.

We had the previous version of the Melitta Look coffee maker and it was great. It made excellent aromatic coffee. This new one is massively disappointing. It's interesting to see the number of people who have the same issue. We have tried adjusting everything. Using freshly ground coffee, increased amounts and less water - we still get a weak cup of coffee. Please don't get this expecting the same coffee as the before.

I've this drip coffee maker since Jan 2024 and I'm a bit disappointed with it but I shouldn't be. It does make a great pot of coffee but it only stays hot for about 2 hours so it is the kind of coffee maker that you need to drink your coffee quickly. I've tried to heat up the pot in advance by placing hot water in the pot for about 10 minutes but like I've said the coffee doesn't keep hot for long. I did expect this to happen but I decided to purchase this coffee maker anyway.

I spent a long time looking at replacement coffee machines, when my old one stopped working. I decided on this model & haven't regretted it at all! The design is nice & compact, plus looks great in my kitchen (black & chrome go with my other items). The detachable water tank is easy to hold & carry & makes for filling it very convenient. It's also quick to make a full pot & relatively easy to clean, although the bottom of the water tank is difficult to get to... But, by far the best feature of this model (and the reason I chose it over other, cheaper, options) is the insulated jug. I was tired of making coffee with my old machine & then going to pour a cup later, to find it was cold (glass jug)! Not so with this jug! It keeps the heat for hours, so I can make coffee in the morning for breakfast & still have a hot cup for lunch & even later in the day! Amazing!
