What owners like
  • Dead simple, low-effort brewing that owners call nearly foolproof — just add grounds and water and walk away · 6 · 86%
  • Consistently produces a good to great tasting cup of coffee · 6 · 86%
  • Owners who've tried other pour-over methods (Bonavita, Clever Dripper, Kalita Wave) say they now prefer the OXO · 5 · 71%
  • Long-time owners report using it for years and still loving it · 5 · 71%
  • Seen as great value for the price, with some calling it a steal · 3 · 43%
What owners flag
  • The reservoir's water holes are limited or clustered off-center, so distribution is uneven and grounds near the rim can be under-extracted · 5 · 71%
  • Plastic construction bothers some owners, who worry about hot water leaching microplastics and wish for a ceramic or glass reservoir option · 5 · 71%
Who it's for
A great fit if
  • Single-cup drinkers who want pour-over taste without a gooseneck kettle or fuss
  • Busy mornings needing a fast, foolproof cup with minimal technique
  • Campers, travelers, or small kitchens wanting a compact, easy-to-store brewer
  • Budget-conscious buyers wanting solid quality-to-price value over pricier ceramic setups
Look elsewhere if
  • Anyone wanting even, edge-to-edge saturation from the reservoir's limited/uneven hole pattern
  • Drinkers who prefer ceramic/glass and are wary of hot water touching plastic
  • Waste-conscious users who dislike relying on disposable paper filters

I have bought this OXO brewer, and I am very pleased with the results.

Too much plastic. Way too much. There are great straight ceramic options, without the dreadful slowness on a stainless steel paperless option.

YouTube— neutral

If you use it as instructed, it makes a weak coffee.

This is nice for camping, motels, etc.

I don't like how the reservoir only has holes in the center, might cause some of the grounds on the outer rim to be under extracted

The dispersion area is actually limited with the OXO, but you could probably hold it in your hand and move it around. I think I timed it a bit over 2 mins for 300ml of water.

Only about 3 of the holes are active in mine. I like it more than just a regular trapezoid brewer without a gooseneck kettle, but the implementation is quite poor.

U lost me at disposable filter. Just more crud in the garbage

YouTube▲ recommend

It brews a very good cup.

I love the product but won't use it again.

YouTube▲ recommend

I got this one from Amazon and love it.

Home-Barista.com▼ don’t recommend

Worth mentioning that the OXO water tank included with their pour-over maker is my least favorite water distributer, but more because of uneven water distribution (too few active holes) and not because of concept.

Works great. Not fancy.

Don't like that it's plastic. Hot water into plastic reservoir? Hmmm.

YouTube▼ don’t recommend

This is not a good way to make coffee you get super bad coffee

YouTube▲ recommend

The oxo is my favorite when I only want one cup verses a whole pot.

YouTube▲ recommend

I love this product and have been using it for years.

dommage de ne pas pouvoir regler le goutte a goutte

This has surprisingly become my GOTO coffee making method, replacing my long beloved clever coffee dripper. Its basically foolproof.

YouTube▲ recommend

I have the oxo and many other pour over devices, and this one has honestly been my favorite one.

YouTube▲ recommend

I’ve been using this for a couple of years and love it.

YouTube▲ recommend

did today and the coffee was great.

Home-Barista.com▲ recommend

I have to say, the OXO did a great job - I used 15g of coffee and about 185ml of water. I actually like it better than the Bonavita. Wish it was ceramic like the BV, but the results were good

It's a solid cup of coffee for a lot less time and attention than I spend on a Kalita Wave brew.
