Fantastic coffee maker
I recently purchased my pour over coffee maker. I use distilled water versus tap water because my tap water has a lot of minerals in it, which will shorten the life span of the coffee maker. I love the design, it’s very attractive. I can make as much or as little as I want. I haven’t used the cold brew function as of yet. But the hot coffee function works quite well. No regrets. I feel it’s better than Keurig.

Durability
This product performs well overall, and I would have rated it five stars. However, the on/off switch stopped functioning within 9 months of purchase, and unfortunately, the return policy has already expired. Very disappointing given the otherwise good performance.
Unique design - wish it stayed warmer
I absolutely love the unique design of this coffee pot! I give it 4 stars because the hot plate does not keep the coffee in the carafe warm for long. Anything over roughly 30 minutes needs to be reheated unfortunately.
Customer review from Tulip Innovations
Overflow issues
For the most part its ok, but it works more like a typical coffee maker vs. like a poor over. The really unpleasant part is that it pumps water to fast for it to flow through and overflows everywhere wo you have to keep a close eye on it which isn't what I wanted.
Machine Needs improvement
I ended up returning this brewer. It has such good potential but it wasn’t great. There was a chemical smell that didn’t go away after multiple cleanings and uses. My coffee had an oil residue that left my mouth coated with the worst feeling. I can’t figure out if its the machine or the coffee oils but I can say I’ve never had the oily texture from my previous machine or my mocha pot or french press which leads me to believe it’s somehow residue from the machine.
Don’t buy
This unit is incredible until it’s not- doesn’t last. We made it 8 months and now it’s the cause of liquid nightmares in the kitchen- all you have to do is fill the water and the machine leaks everywhere. Of course it’s too late for return- waste of money!
Willow Kitchen pour over coffee maker design
The pour over coffee maker sort of works, but not what I expected. It definitely needs a timer, for example it uses all the water tank whether you want one cup or 10 cups! You can’t ask it to make 2 cups. A timer could help in that it would stop the brewing after say 2-3 minutes. Also, if you use an extra paper filter to get darker coffee, it overflows and makes a mess in the kitchen. I have two recommendations for the designers. 1) put a timer on the system, 2) slow the water flow further to avoid overflow.
I love this coffeemaker
I love it now but I had questions and problems at first. The customer service from Willow was not helpful at all. I was definitely prepared to return the coffeemaker based solely on their response. I'm glad I didn't, but it was a close one, and they really need to do something about how they respond to questions/complaints.
