Been waiting for this coffee maker to go on sale and it finally has. This is not the lowest price ever, but it is $5 from it. Free Shipping from all stores.
Description:
Switch between batch brew and single cups at the flip of a switch with the Oxo Brew 8 Cup Coffee Maker! A successor to the well-loved 9 cup brewer, the Oxo 8 cup is built to brew at the right time and temperature for SCA's Gold Cup certification. Features like a wide spray arm, 40-ounce capacity, and auto drip stop make the 8 Cup easy to live with for those early mornings. Maintenance is equally easy with a wide mouth carafe and a dedicated cleaning program. Best of all, the brewer's unique single cup setting lets you brew single cups or travel mugs using regular Kalita Wave filters.

Cheap coffee makers do not get as hot as this. They do not have remotely close to the same shower head. They do not brew nearly as fast. The SCAA has explicit requirements for brew time to certify coffee makers. The cheap ones don't do it.
I doubt the beans you're using are quality, but to make such ignorant comments is laughable.
To people who care: quality for this is on par with Bonavita but the machine is better made and more durable. Great if you need to make a large pot that will produce a quality cup for multiple people.

1) the rainfall showerhead keeps water streaming evenly over all the beans.
2) Precision heating elements make the water exit at very specifically controlled temperature.
3) General design allows the water to steep for a very specifically controlled time.
Not to mention a 4) preprogrammed ability to "bloom" of the grounds and wetting of the filter.
This yields for more even extraction of coffee from the beans at their expected "sweet spot."
Of course you could try to dial it in even more which is what the clover machines were doing.
It can be a night and day difference with regular beans and not just for coffee snobs. It's like stepping up from the $6-$8 bottle of wine to the $15-$30 bottles.
You really don't know until you've tried it.
Some people can't tell or don't care for the difference between $6 wine and $30. To those people, keep calm and carry on!

They cancelled my order. Did you get yours?
Sure, there might be a difference in quality and longevity of the heating element. But it's still going to draw 1500 watts max (I suspect, so it's going to heat pretty quick.) And it doesn't take a pricey machine to heat to boiling, not that you want it that hot, so I imagine the thermostat will be a factor. Heating elements and thermostats are pretty standard electrical components.
I'll bet an Ave style tear down would reveal some differences in quality of components but I suspect 90% of the price difference for the name and the shiny metal looking plastic bits.
I'd love to see a blind taste test between cheap and expensive machines. Short of that all these comments about blooming and filtering and pre-wetting the bean and filter etc are just speculation. The proof is in the pudding. If it makes better tasting coffee or lasts longer or makes it quicker than that should be able to be shown in a test.
