Hi, I received this as a gift for Christmas and it has worked great. I use it atleast 4 times a day for tea, and I haven't encountered any problems.

Pros:
1. The mug it comes with retains heat very well, is made of stainless steel, is dishwasher safe, and very durable with grippy rubber handle. It also fits into car cup-holders.
2. When the water comes out of the steamer, it is SCALDING hot.
3. This comes with its built in filter is dishwasher safe too, so no more disposables
4. Automatic Shutoff
5. Great value here on Amazon
6. Brews in minutes.

Cons:
1. Not all coffee mugs, especially larger plastic ones fit into the machine.
2. A bit loud.

Disappointing.

I was really excited about this coffeemaker. I work in an office with no real kitchen facilities, plus I am the only decaf drinker, so this was perfect. Unfortunately, I have been quite disappointed. Contrary to what other reviewers have written, yes I do have half a brain and yes I do know how to brew coffee. I used the proper amount of water and coffee (even less than the recommended amount) and it still got coffee grounds *everywhere*. It sort of defeats the purpose of being "convenient" when you have to take the whole unit to the bathroom and rinse out the water reservoir to get the coffee grounds out. It brews a great cup of coffee, and I like the travel mug a lot, but if you're looking for a single-cup coffeemaker, I'd recommend passing on this one and continuing on your quest. Bummer....

The one I gave my mother turns itself on and off as if it has a mind of its own. Once I plugged it in and then went to the tap to get the water, while I had my back to it, it turned itself on. Thats right it turned itself on. Unknowingly I poured the water into the resevoir and the heat from the heating element forced the water to turn to steam and spit back out.
