This appliance has three brew styles — classic, rich, and iced — and can brew six different sizes. It’s also equipped with 24-hour delay brew, so you can wake up to hot coffee. It's always nice to have someone else make the coffee — even if that someone is your new friendly robot coffee maker.

It even comes with its own plastic holder so the soap won’t leak out when it’s not in use. Many reviews also use it to clean the shower.
