Salton Melitta Take 2 2-Cup Coffee Maker

We were looking for a coffee maker and found this 2 cup unit that dispenses the coffee right into the travel mugs. Perfect for our family, because I am not a coffee drinker.

The concept is a time saver if you like to drink your coffee on the go, because you don't have to transfer the coffee from the pot to the cup. It is easy to clean, insert coffee filters, and fill.

The only downside my husband has noted is that the coffee doesn't seem to get as hot as our old coffee maker.

I am certainly grateful that I spotted this little jewel. It is what we needed in our home for two adults on the go that didn't have time to drink a whole pot of coffee in the a.m., nor did we have time to clean out the huge un-needed appliance that used to call our counter top home in the p.m.. Those days are long gone now that this TAKE 2 (2 cup coffee maker) call our counter top it's home. The huge 12 cup pot that previously went to waste is a thing of the past since now there is no pot whatsoever. Nope, only 2 travel mugs that the coffee brew directly into so it's ready to hit the road when I walk out the door. I was able to easily find the coffee filters that are recommended for this Salton Melitta Take 2 Coffee Maker on Ebay as well and of course, at a great price. I highly recommend this appliance to anyone who is tired of pouring the coffee down the sink at night because a whole pot is too much for the size of their household and is easier to make than a couple of cups that never tastes quite right in a 10-12 cup coffeemaker. I love my Melitta and wouldn't part with it even if offered double the money I paid for it (WHICH BY THE WAY WAS ONE PENNY PLUS SHIPPING !!!!). Hope this helps anyone interested in a convenient way to save time and money in the morning and end up with a great cup of coffee brewed directly into their travel mug... What more could hard working people ask for???? Well that answer might call for an entirely different review and honestly I foresee my response requiring alot more time than what I have available to offer at this moment, so until next time "ADIOS AND HAVE A BLESSED DAY...".

Makes great coffee for a single person or couple that wants only 1 cup or wants 2 but freshly made each time. Perfect !

It makes excellent coffee, and I love the fact that I can put any mug under it, not just the mugs that came with the maker. However, it does need to be perfectly level in order to work properly. Currently, mine sits on a piece of cardboard under 1/2 of it in order to make it level because if it did not then the left mug would fill up faster than the right mug and might even overflow.

This is just perfect for someone who likes a quick cup of coffee for the car on the way to work or for someone who only drinks a cup of coffee in the morning. Makes two large commuter cups in about 3 minutes. I love it.

First of all I paid about $15.00 for this brand new unit on E-Bay.
I have used it for a while now and would be willing to pay full retail assuming that it will last at least a few years, I just had a Black & Decker single cup unit that only lasted 6 months. I truly loved the conveniance of the single cup coffee maker and like the flexibility of this one even more. It makes one or two cups of coffee perfectly and fast, just a few minutes for one 14oz. cup and about five minutes for two. The stainless insulated cups are worth what I paid for the whole thing. It is very easy to clean up. I would recommend buying the #2 cone paper filters on E-Bay, much cheaper. For a person like myself that likes one cup at home and one for the road you cant beat this machine.
P.S. My wife likes it for tea also.

Used one of these for the last 4 years at work. I liked the fact that once the brewing was complete, the unit shuts off. Easy to use. Besides the two mugs, the unit I used had a pot included to make more than the 2 cups. This is nice if you don't want to serve in a travel cup.

i loved that it made 2 cups of coffee at once, its just my husband and i who are coffee drinkers and we seldom drink more than one cup so regular coffeemakers wasted alot.

Do you ever make a pot of coffee and it sits there all day going stale? Not with this coffee pot. It makes only what you need right now. Its also a good way of cutting back to 2 cups a day. One when you first wake up, and one to take with on the way to work. Its a great choice!

coffee came out once and missd the two cups went all over counter mybe as a one cup it would be ok when it does work does not fill cups even i think a one coffee maker would be better

I needed a good coffee maker and this one is brand new for a low price. I like that the shipping was at a low price as well.

The coffee maker did not make 2 cups evenly resulting in one cup to overflow, returned it and got cheated out of my shipping charge plus had to pay for the shipping charge when I returned it so I ;ost on the whole deal. Very un happy

Very nice, convenient, love it!! Is a little noisy when perking but that is tolerable considering my overall satisfaction with this product.

Excellent product. Perfectly described by seller. Will definately buy again. Fast delivery as promised.

I read about the coffee maker in consumer reports and could not find where I could buy it localy. So I purchesed the item from an Ebay seller. Perfect, no hassel, right to my door. Now I save money and time by not having to stop on my way to work to get my java fix.

Fine product,makes coffee into travel mugs which keep it fresh and hot, just as listed, excellent seller

I've only used it twice so far, but it's the best (and easiest) maker I have ever owned. I'm aware that other reviews cite the poor quality of the maker, noting that it breaks too frequently. I will obviously look for that, but it's been a breeze so far, and the coffee is great (just as CR reviewed it).

We love this little coffee maker! It makes a strong cup or I should say 3 cups of coffee. The difficult thing for us was locating #2 fileters for it. Only thing we don't like is the coffee does not stay hot...thank goodness for our microwave. Loved it so much that we purchased two...one for each home.
