If you're in search of a quick, easy, and delicious cuppa in the morning, this should be your go-to pick. This stainless-steel coffee maker brews four cups, and at just 10 x 8 x 5.2 inches, it barely takes up any space on a countertop. This super-compact option also features a brew-pause feature, which is ideal for infusion and grabbing a cup before the whole pot is ready.

Available in three colors, this coffee maker features a built-in coffee mill, so you can enjoy freshly ground coffee with a streamlined brew process. A custom brew strength selector allows users to choose strength depending on taste (regular, bold, or strong). Wake up to a hot pot of coffee, thanks to the QuickTouch Programming that allows for a 24-hour auto brew process.

This coffee maker features a nifty pre-infusion mode that effectively mimics the flavor that a pour-over coffee process yields. Because this mode pauses the waterflow, the coffee grounds have time to bloom, resulting in a more full-bodied and intense flavor. With an 8-cup capacity and a 6-minute brew time, this stainless-steel coffee maker starts up with just one touch.

One of the coolest things about this 12-cup coffee maker from Japanese brand Zojirushi is the warming plate technology—you can choose from four settings to keep coffee at your preferred temperature. It also features a built-in ice basket, for those who preferred iced coffee. With a removable water tank and baskets, and a “clean” indicator, this machine is just as easy to maintain as it is to use.
