I have them and have recommended a Cuisinart: Brew Central (DCC-1200) for decades. It makes 1-4 cups quickly or a full pot up to 12 cups if needed,. Easy to maintain. Cheap filters: a water one that lasts and one for the coffee. There are no kcups to throw away and better for the environment. It has a programmable timer too and timer to stay heated for automatic off after a certain time, which I appreciate because I forget to turn it off. It is easy to clean. It comes in stainless or all black.

I had to replace the one after 15 years because it got dropped when packing it in a move; the other has been going for 18 years now. I got another recently for work, and it is doing really well with constant use. There are businesses around here that use it. Friends, who love it as well. Take a look, perhaps this might be what she is looking for. Good luck finding the right fit!
