What customers like about Technivorm Moccamaster 53941 KBGV Select

  • A 1475 W heater brings the water up to temperature quickly.
  • The removable tank is easy to fill.
  • It switches itself off after brewing.
  • Overheat protection helps keep the machine safe.
  • Sleep mode saves power when the machine is idle.
  • Few settings mean there is little to learn before the first cup.

What customers don't like about Technivorm Moccamaster 53941 KBGV Select

  • There is no pump, so it cannot make espresso.
  • There is no display to show status or settings.
  • There is no way to set the coffee temperature.
  • It has no hot water dispenser or built-in grinder.
  • There is no milk frother, so milk drinks need another machine.

Verdict

For a morning coffee drinker who wants a plain, classic cup, the Technivorm Moccamaster 53941 KBGV Select keeps things simple. Its 1475 W heater brings the water to temperature quickly, so the first cup does not wait long. The removable tank is easy to fill, and the machine switches itself off after brewing, so you do not have to remember to turn it off. Overheat protection and sleep mode add some safety and save a little power when idle. There is no display and no way to set the temperature, so you switch it on and let it run. The main limit is that it has no pump, so it cannot make espresso. It suits someone who wants a dependable filter machine and has no need for milk drinks.
