Warning...You will be hooked on Fellow products!I have owned several high-end coffee makers over the years and the Fellow Aiden Precision Coffee Maker is the best one I have ever owned! If you are a true coffee lover, this is a game changer! The quality of the brew is unmatched.It not only has a sleek look but its performance is off the charts. It gives you the perfect cup of hot coffee in style every time. I love the removable water tank on the side and not having a glass carafe! This machine can make cold brew, single cup and more. I love that there are so many variations.The set up was easy and I love that it has customizable settings and profiles. Fellow has really thought of everything in the Brew profile and there is even more on the Fellow app.The machine is easy to clean and set up. Every evening I just pick the profile for the next morning and perfect pot of coffee is waiting for me every time.If you are a serious coffee lover, the Aiden is worth every penny.

I might have a hard time figuring out what NOT to like about this machine. Sure, it's a little on the pricey side but what it is capable of is quite impressive. Best of all, it makes "The perfect cup of coffee" every time!Ready to read more? Then buckle up!...I can't recommend enough to read the directions. Setting it up isn't that difficult - it just takes some time.Getting the perfect cup of coffee? That's going to take a few trial runs and I **HIGHLY** recommend using a scale measured in grams. My wife and I make an 8 cup pot of coffee each morning and we use the standard ratio of 1:16 which asks for 75 grams of dark roast. At first, my wife didn't follow the directions and tried to do things the way we did with our old coffee pot - NOOOO!!! This device is meant for making a perfect cup or pot of coffee so following the recommendations is crucial for success! Normal brew coffee is a 1:16 water to grounds ratio. Want it stronger? Lower the ratio (i.e. 1:15 or 1:14). Want it weaker, raise the ratio (i.e. 1:20). The Fellow Aiden is meant to make coffee how YOU prefer it. Just take my advice and use a scale or buy one - you won't be sorry you did.We personally just use the guided brew but I personally have a profile set up should I want a stronger cup of coffee than what my wife likes. I have now made a pot of coffee and I've also made a smaller 3 cup batch which requires using a different filter. What's great is the machine will tell you to switch the filter container and swap the hose to single cup vs. batch brew. 8 cups of coffee takes exactly 10 minutes. 3 cups takes about 6 minutes. A one and a half cup takes only 4 minutes. When it brews coffee, it is very quiet. This thing is AWESOME!The carafe is nice too, it does keep things nice and hot for at least an hour but we're usually pouring our morning cup(s) within 30 minutes of it automatically brewing. Some reviews complain about it not keeping coffee hot? Well drink it after it's done brewing because that's when it is best!Setting up the timer is extremely simple and we prefer doing it on our phone just because it's a larger viewable real-estate vs the circular window.Just be careful! When testing this and learning how to use it, we left a batch of coffee in the carafe and forgot to empty it. We woke up this morning to a floor with coffee on it that we had to clean up. The machine does not have an overflow sensor on it and since it's not glass, you can't see if there is something inside of it. Not the machines fault but something to be aware of!Ultimately, if this appliance can last us a good amount of time, we will be happy. Coffee makers don't seem to last as long as they used to. The machine looks great and it is a nice compact form that SHOULD fit in most counter spaces as you can see in my photos.In conclusion, I do recommend it for how well it makes coffee and how configurable it is to your own personal taste(s). I'm not an expert but I enjoy a nice cup of coffee in the morning. This excels at doing just that!

I've been on the hunt forever for a coffee maker that makes genuinely good coffee and doesnt look like a cheap plastic appliance on my counter. The Fellow Aiden is finally it. It's the perfect mix of style and specialty coffee.​The coffee it makes is so much better than my old machine, way smoother and not bitter at all.You can really taste the difference becuase of the fancy shower head thing that gets all the grounds wet evenly. The thermal carafe is great too, keeps the coffee hot for hours without that burnt taste from a hot plate. And the removable water tank is a small thing but makes refilling so much easier.​My favorite feature is probably the app. Being able to schedule a brew from my phone the nite before is a game-changer. It really does deliver that coffee shop quality with zero effort. It's definitely an investment, so it's not for everyone, but I figured I was spending a ton at cafes anyway.​So if you're sper serious about your morning coffee and want something that looks the part, this is probably the best machine out there. Plus, it just looks so good in the kitchen. A product I'm actualy happy to have out on display.

As someone who has spent their whole life buying multiple $8+ cups of coffee per day, getting the Fellow Aiden has been a complete game changer for myself (and my wallet). I used to be so intimidated by the concept of at home brewing: what beans to get, what machine to use, what type of coffee to brew. That has all changed since I got the Aiden. The ability to slow drip high quality iced coffee at home has been a revelation! After a short time in the fridge, the iced coffee brewed becomes incredibly tasty and rich, and has all but eliminated my mid day trips to the coffee shop as I have something just as good (if not better!) waiting for me in the fridgeThe machine and all its parts are very smartly designed. Everything just fits! Cleaning is so easy and straightforward, so I’m making incredible coffee while also not making a mess! Guided brews basically let the machine do all the work for you, and the added bonus of having the house smell like fresh coffee every morning is the perfect thing to help start your day. I would absolutely recommend this machine to anyone looking for an at home coffee maker, but especially to people like me who were similarly intimidated by the whole process. 5/5 would definitely recommend to anyone and everyone!
