Product Description
Your two favorite beverages (coffee and tea) can be made using this one machine. From Sanyo, this small appliance lets you brew coffee via a soft shower drip system for enhanced flavor. Use it, also, for brewing tea. A specially-designed basket circulates the water and tea leaves, capturing tea's true flavor. In addition to brewing, this Sanyo coffee and tea maker also comes with a built-in grinder so your coffee beans are ground right before brewing for exceptionally fresh flavor. A built-in charcoal filter also adds to the fresh tastes of your coffee and tea. A Keep Warm function keeps your beverage at the optimum temperature once brewed. The coffee and tea maker has a 6-cup capacity and comes with a removable water tank so you can fill at the sink. The unit, with its space-saving design, takes up minimal space on your countertop. Included is a bilingual instructional manual.

 Misleading description January 12, 2005

Usually, i am fan of Sanyo products. This one has a misleading description. This is not a typical mill & brew, you mill & you have to transfer to brew. Then, why not have separate mill & brewing machines. what is the use of this one ?
Thanks to Amazon.com return policy

*The built in grinder works just fine and detatches easily so you can pour it into the filter.
*It uses Militta type #2 cone filters and the water drips slowly, so there are not flooding problems.
*Instead of filling the carafe, you fill the detatchable water tank. Not more or less convenient really, just different. Hey, you wanted to be different. Nice because it's not breakable like the carafe.
* 6 cup maker instead of 12 cups -- its my own fault I didn't notice that.
* Temp is fine. I think those fancy BUNN machines everyone loves so much get the brew so hot it destroys the flavor. That's just a personal opinion.
*I have not used the ice tea maker function - we already have a different unit for that, so I can't render an opinion.
* Small carbon filter twists off and they ask that you just rinse it in regular water before you make a fresh pot. Its suggested replacement is every 2 years - although most people never replace them, so its not a worry.
* Instructions are specific and simple - they also come in spanish / Se habla espanol :)
It does what it says it will do, but is it as great coffee maker?
No, it's as good as most. You can get a $20+ Mr. Coffee or whatever you like and it will do no better or worse, Im sure.

I had been searching for a coffee maker with a built-in grinder and even went as far as purchasing a Cuisinart for $150.00, which I didn't care for and returned. There aren't that many coffee makers out there with the built-in grinders, so I decided to give the Sanyo a try. I must admit I was pleasantly surprised at how hot the coffee was (compared to the Cuisinart) and how delicious. I was a little bit disappointed in that I thought the grinder automatically ground the coffee and brewed it, but got over that quickly, since everything else was so great. I also would have preferred the coffee maker been in black rather than the dark gray color, but again, it is a minor flaw to me. All in all, for the money, I don't think there is a better coffeemaker out there with the features it has for the low price. Buy it! Patricia Davis in Cave Creek, AZ

I'm a tea drinker and once in a while coffee. I also often need coffee for company. This is the best. I use it with the #2 gold permanent filter available here on Amazon from Medelco. I fill it at night and just push the button in the morning, just the right amount of tea for one or two. It is easy to clean. I looked at the expensive machines at around $200.00 and the price was OK but the K-cups for 100 cups could be as much as $55.00, with the Sanyo I use 100 Lipton tea bags for $2.25. That makes me happy in the morning. I bought some exotic coffee beans here at Amazon and they work great in the Sanyo. I was so please with the unit I bought more for gifts to share the fun. I would highly recommend this unit if you are only one or two and tea is as important as coffee. Oh, it is not really black more like a dark grey.
Perfect coffee maker for the office September 12, 2006

This coffee maker is a 6 cup maker, which equates to about 2 office cups, perfect for the early morning coffee drinker.
I really like the detachable tank.
The grinder and coffee maker are both reasonably quiet.
At $39, the price is good. I didn't spend an arm and a leg for it and I get a great cup of coffee, every morning.
