Third-party reviews

What we like about Melitta Enjoy Top 1017-04

  • Patented AromaSelector allows easy adjustment of coffee strength from mild to strong
  • Modern, appealing design with sleek stainless steel applications
  • Transparent water tank features a highly visible, readable scale
  • Removable swivel filter with an integrated drip stop prevents messes
  • Easy to clean with a dishwasher-safe glass jug and filter insert
  • Affordable pricing offering great value for money

What we don't like about Melitta Enjoy Top 1017-04

  • Water filling process can feel narrow and awkward to pour into
  • The cup scale printed directly on the glass jug can be hard to read
  • Automatic shut-off cuts power after 40 minutes, which some find too quick
  • Lacks advanced electronic features like a programmable digital timer or LCD display
  • Some users report the water flows through too quickly, occasionally leading to weaker extraction if not dosed correctly

Verdict

The Melitta Enjoy Top 1017-04 is a 1000-watt drip filter coffee machine featuring a modern black plastic chassis enhanced with high-quality stainless steel applications. It is equipped with a 1.25-litre transparent water tank featuring dual cup markings capable of brewing up to 10 large (125ml) or 15 small (85ml) cups of coffee using standard 1x4 size disposable filter bags. Main technical characteristics and pros include its patented AromaSelector dial for customizing flavor from mild to strong without altering water volumes, an integrated anti-drip system to prevent messes, a dishwasher-safe borosilicate glass jug and removable swivel filter holder, and an automated energy-saving hotplate that keeps coffee warm before turning off automatically after 40 minutes. Notable cons include the lack of a built-in grinder or programmable timer display on this specific sub-model, its reliance on ongoing purchases of disposable paper filters, and a water tank that is fixed to the unit rather than detachable for easier sink filling.
