I'll be the first to say the usual answer of Technivorm Moccamaster. Literally only 2 switches, on/off and half/full brew. I really like mine, they're hand made, it's built like a tank and you get a lifelong warranty.

Einfache Küchengeräte (keine Großgeräte). Wenn billige Sachen halten und gut funktionieren, toll! Wenn sie irgendwann kaputtgehn (und nicht reparabel sein sollten), weiß man jetzt dass man die Sachen auch gut nutzt und worauf man achten sollte.

The Technivorm Moccamaster coffee maker. I got tired of buying a new lesser one every year. I’m going on 10 years with mine and it’s still going strong.

The Moccamaster coffee maker. It's built to last. My parent's one is lasting for 30 years and no sign of decline. They're still a sturdy, high quality, no frills machine to this day.
