The Krups KM4065 is a lower-mid range coffee maker that retails for around $120 at list price. It gets overalls quite good reviews, with some reports of malfunction and poor workmanship.

The KM4065 rates highly with customers for its attractive design, its ease of use, and good automatic features. It also makes a good cup of coffee. But it scored some negative points because it does not have a thermal carafe and the glass carafe provided is somewhat wimpy and easily breakable. There are some reports of the carafe melting when overheated! There are also reports of broken carafes being unreplaceable, since no replacement carafes are available for this machine (or they weren’t at the time). The carafe also allows steam to exit the pot and burn your thumb!

There are also some reports of the coffee not being hot enough, and of the coffee maker being too loud, so loud that some customers actually returned the machine because of it.

So even though this machine makes a good pot of coffee, there are enough complaints about it that I wouldn’t consider buying one. Krups has a lot of coffeemakers that get much better reviews.
