Here is the description from technoworm website:
The KBGT is ideal for those who typically brew a full carafe and are looking for the most straightforward process – add your coffee grounds and water, then flip the switch on. The brew basket automatically stops the flow of coffee when removing the carafe. The borosilicate glass lining of our stainless steel carafe retains heat and keeps your coffee hotter longer.
With all that being said, many other factors weigh into taste. Bean quality, ground vs pre-ground, grind settings, water quality, etc. It's really a rabbit hole if you want to go down it. Most importantly, your preference plays into it. If the $20 coffee maker is making you happy, stick with it.

The only gripe is that I have the metal carafe, and for some stupid reason their engineers did not think to make a divot in the spout to allow the liquid to come out of the carafe. So when you're trying to pour the thing into a cup or worse a thermos (small orifice), then the thing spills everywhere and I have to rinse the thermos. It's maddening. I'm was willing to buy an aftermarket carafe but at this point after owning the thing for a year I have adapted to only spill coffee ~25% of the time when I'm pouring into a thermos.
Otherwise yea, get this thing. I have it set up to a smart switch that turns this thing on 15 minutes before I wake up so that hot coffee is ready to go. I now buy the stupid $5 coffee (straight up black coffee with no fancy stuff) maybe a few times a year. I don't understand the people who pay for Starbucks or a boutique coffee shop every day.
My next move is to get an espresso machine because my god the caffeine high from an espresso is just so much more efficient and cleaner.
Now all I need to do is convince the wife. Now whether to get that espresso machine first or a new saw...

This thing is an absolute beast, and has not failed us at all (knock on wood). The full price may seem steep, but i would definitely be ok with paying full price to replace. 10/10 recommend to all looking for a solid, no frills, coffee maker.
