Valid criticisms from me:
You can't pour the last few drops of coffee out of the carafe with the lid on, it seems to get stuck. You can either waste this or take the lid off.
The lid of the carafe has a design flaw that means coffee and water can get trapped inside it. The solution is to drill two drainage holes in the lid, I posted on here about it, I'll add a link in a minute.
If you're brewing close to the cone filter max (1L), any excess fines in your coffee can choke the flow and cause the water to overflow and spill grounds into the brewed coffee. You can resolve this by grinding coarser than the optimum but that's a frustrating experience to me.
