I do not recommend this product. At that point, the coffee smelled burnt.
Firstly, the metal on the bottom was warped, so when it sat on the stove, it wabbled back and forth and made an annoying sound. I was very disappointed with this percolator.
Thirdly, the coffee had to be boiled for 20-30 minutes before the color resembled the shade of coffee. I had to take a hammer to lightly tap it out so that it sat level on the stove.
Secondly, after one week, the black paint started to chip off and I kept finding pieces of it flaked off into the bottom of the percolator. Week 3 I purchased an auto drip coffee maker to replace the percolator and tossed it in the trash.
It was barely worth the purchase price.
This can be described in one word.'Flimsy'sure, it works fine once or twice and would actually be useful as a disposable item if the price was lower
Product lived up to its listed features. The person who received it as a gift was thrilled with it. Thank you.
Handle is secured by unthreaded rivits. I have one of these I plan to return from another source and the handle came apart the first use. Amazon should not carry this product as it is very poorly constructed.
Now the coffee basket has broken. Have had the pot for 5 weeks. Had to "adjust" the lid so it would fit and wouldn't come off during percolating. Overall not too satisfied. Coffee is weak and most of the water boils away before the coffee is finished.
