A:AnswerI thought the same him thing. It seemed like even the silver parts were plastic. I still thought it looked nice but mine broke after a month so plastic or not, it was poor in quality and disappointing
A:AnswerThere is plenty of extra room in the filter to add extra coffee grounds to make the coffee stronger without overflowing the filter unless you go crazy. It has a mark about midway up the filter for average strength coffee. You can't fill it to the top but another spoon or two is not going to cause a problem.

A:AnswerNo. Basket that holds the coffee grounds seems to be a very fine plastic fabric of some type. The holder for the filter is 100% plastic. I have been using the coffee maker for about a month with no brewing or durability issues.
A:AnswerNo, it would shatter on a burner. You can heat water by using it as a coffee pot without coffee grounds. This would heat the water but not bring it to a boil.
A:AnswerNo beep when it is done. No auto shut off after 2 hours. But, on one occasion,I forgot to turn it off for 5 hours, the empty coffee pot was still relatively cool.
A:AnswerThat must be a typo, it has none of those features. Just a manual on and off switch. If you use it with a smart plug you can program it to turn on at a set time, then turn off after a certain number of minutes.
