Third-party reviews

What we like about Melitta One 1031-03

  • The 1525 W heater brews a full 10-cup pot in about 6 min.
  • The keep-warm time can be adjusted, so you decide how long the pot stays hot.
  • At 16 cm deep, it sits well against a wall.
  • Cord storage keeps the lead tidy.
  • The non-slip base keeps it still on the counter.
  • The removable filter holder and dishwasher-safe parts make cleaning easier.

What we don't like about Melitta One 1031-03

  • At 36 cm wide, it takes up a long stretch of counter.
  • At 3.57 kg it is heavy to lift and move.
  • The water tank cannot be removed, so you fill it on the machine.
  • No water filtration system is built in, so tap water goes straight into the pot.
  • There is no automatic cleaning, so cleaning is always done by hand.

Verdict

Brewing for a whole household is the job the Melitta One 1031-03 is built for, so it is worth a close look. Its 1.25 L tank makes 10 cups, and the 1525 W heater gets the brew done in about 6 min. The keep-warm time can be set, so you decide how long the pot stays hot. It carries SCA certification, a coffee industry standard for brewing. The filter holder comes out, the parts go in the dishwasher, and a cleaning reminder helps with upkeep. The trade-off is the footprint. At 36 cm wide and 3.57 kg, it takes a good spot on the counter and is not easy to move. It suits a buyer who brews big batches every morning and wants a machine that is simple to clean.
