Willow Kitchen Artisan Brew Review I have now been using the Willow for just over a month. Prior to using the Willow, I made my coffee each morning exclusively making a manual pour-over. Needless to say, I was quite skeptical about the idea of trying an automatic coffee maker. To my surprise, however, the Willow has worked surprising well. Several times now, I have used the Willow while also making a manual pour-over side by side to compare the result. Each time, the taste of the coffee was virtually indistinguishable. The clear difference was, with the Willow, once I added the coffee and water, I was finished. I could go about my morning getting ready for work, and in just a couple of minutes, there is a great cup of coffee waiting. In addition to the quality of the cup of coffee that it produces, the Willow is also incredibly easy to keep clean. A drawback to many automatic coffee makers is that they get a bit wanky after a bit and they are tough to keep clean. With the Willow, merely give the pot a rinse with hot water after each use, rinse the filter out and you are finished. No coffee ever touches the machine, so it stays nice and clean. If there is one suggestion that I could make, it would be to offer the same set up, but in a smaller size. Not unlike making a manual pour-over, I found that when I tried to make a larger amount of coffee, it didn’t produce quite the same quality cup of coffee. Whereas most serious coffee drinkers would likely opt to make one cup at a time for that reason, perhaps a machine taking up less real estate on the counter would be nice. But with that said, two thumbs up for the Willow and it is now our go-to way to make coffee every morning.

This coffee pot is beautiful. It looks amazing on my counter! It wipes clean easily without staining and doesn’t attract dust. For the price it’s an amazing coffee pot

Not only does this brew a perfect cup coffee, but it is easy to keep clean and most of all cute! The machine itself seems durable and not overly bulky.
