Superb!
I am beyond satisfied with this product. Unlike pitchers and carafes, this product is very compact and fits in my refrigerator with ease. It doesn't take up a significant amount of space that requires me to rearrange things strategically. Because the strainer is designed to hold more grounds the cold brew produced is more of a concentrate. The intended ratio of coffee to water 1:3 and they really mean it! As a result, I am using very little of what's brewed and diluting it with water, but it doesn't compromise the flavor whatsoever once you discover what works for you. It is easy to clean and care for and a typical brew lasts me about a week-and-a-half.

Great for cold brew coffee or tea concentrate
Extremely sturdy, compact and strong enough to stack stuff on if necessary. It's short enough to possibly fit on a middle shelf in the refrigerator. Delivered great results on first batch of coffee concentrate. Other options work great too but the compact size sold me on this one. Manufacturer recommends coarse ground but the filter had no problem with fine ground commercial. Highly recommend.

A great looking, functional cold brew coffer maker
Cold brew coffee's convenience, low acidity content, and distinct flavor have made it one of my favorite beverages. The process of making cold brew coffee is really simple but the industry have made it extremely complicated. All you really need is coarsely ground coffee, a filter bag, water, and a container. In fact, before I purchased this wonderful looking brew coffee machine, I used a ceramic bowl and a coffee filter bag; the coffee tasted great. So you might ask, what justifies this brewer's price tag? Personally, I paid $80 for the look and the convenience. This coffee maker looks great to me. Its brushed metal handle and the glass wall scream quality. The metal coffee dispenser is unique and turns so smoothly that it reminds me of the AC vent knobs on the 2018 Mercedes. None of these aesthetic and usability features are relevant to the end product it tries to make-the delicious cup of cold brew. But I have to say you can get there in a rather stylistic way. Functionally, the brewer offers a few things that other traditional brewers cannot. First, because of the dispenser and the form factor, you can easily store the brewer in your fridge without having to transfer the coffee to another container. In the morning, all I have to do is opening up my fridge and get the coffee without having to remove the brewer. Second, there is no guess work as to how much coffee ground is needed. There is a marking on the coffee basket tat tells you how much coffee to put in--about 250 grams. Lastly, cleaning is extremely easy. All you need to do is rinsing the coffee basket and the brewer itself. Make sure you run the dispenser a few seconds to get rid of the residual coffee that still remains in the dispenser tube. This Kitchen Aid cold brew maker adds a little more fine touches to the cold brew coffee experience. Its convenient features are not necessary but certainly feels polished and luxurious. Again, you DO NOT need this brewer to make delicious cold brew. So the ultimate question is probably, how much does the experience of making cold brew in a nice looking container cost?

Reduce the mess of making Cold Brew Coffee
I used to make Cold Brew the hard way - NO MORE! I bought this at the local Best Buy when it was on sale. What a bargain. The grounds go into the filter basket, (which is about the finest mesh I've ever seen). It doesn't let any grounds escape into the Cold Brew! Ingenious! It's cheaper to make your own than to buy it at a coffee shop. You should go and get yourself one now.

Nice compact size.
Solid, easy to use, and easy to clean. I keep it on the shelf in my mini-fridge with lots of my other beverages. I set the temps lower in my mini-fridge(s).

Easy to use and clean
This is an excellent opportunity to enjoy cold coffee drinks for a fraction of what you would pay at the coffee shop. The components are easy to clean and it stores well in all refrigerators.

Good looking Cold Brewer
You can make cold brew for much cheaper than this. I've used nut bags and a glass container and it worked fine. However, this brewer is not only aesthetically good looking it is so much easier to cold brew in. There are markings that you can follow so no need for measuring and clean up is a breeze. That being said I got this on sale for $50 so it's great at that price. I don't know if I'd pay over a $100 for it though.

Struggled
I'm not the type to read instructions so I glimpsed through them just to see how you take this apart to wash. Let me say this makes very strong coffee and I only use a light roast. I added water for 2 weeks until I got to a point where 1tbls of concentrate didn't need 10oz of water. I used filtered water to brew just because it looks so clean in my refrigerator. My suggestion if you purchase is if your making coffee in this you should take it completely apart and wash it every time to prevent clogs. There's nothing worse than needing to beiutthe door in 1 min to catch a bus and your coffee won't come out the spout. I haven't used it for other beverages yet maybe when I switch back to hot coffee.

Wash it with kid gloves!
The handle seems to be made of some other type of material because after I washed it once, there are all these white stains and discolorations on it. I also received one with a big scratch on the nozzle. Other than that, the rest is high quality. I think the handle might be coated or treated specially.
