Overview
Elite Gourmet's EC922 is a 12-cup stainless steel electric percolator built for the classic stovetop-style brew, not a drip machine. It brews coffee or tea, then switches itself to keep-warm, and the cord detaches so the pot can be carried to the table.
- 12-cup capacity with markings for 4 to 12 cups
- Illuminated on/off switch with power and keep-warm lights
- Cordless serving base, plug back in to resume warming
- Cool-touch handle and drip-free pouring spout
Who it's for
Anyone who grew up on percolated coffee, or who wants a cordless pot for serving guests, fits this well. It suits stovetop-adjacent kitchens and RVs where a drip machine's footprint is unwelcome.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Several buyers report the glass brew-progress knob on top cracking after months of regular use, in one case twice over about a year and a half despite hand washing; Elite Gourmet's support replaced the part but the repeat failure was a common thread. Reviewers who kept the pot in daily rotation praised the taste and speed of the coffee and liked pouring cordless from the detachable base. One owner reported the unit shorting out after about five months of near-daily use.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Cordless base lets you serve without unplugging first
- Lid, basket, cover and stem are dishwasher safe
- Automatic keep-warm switch after brewing finishes
- Measurement markings inside for repeatable brewing
- Glass brew-progress knob reported to crack with use
- Percolator body itself is hand wash only
Performance notes
The unit percolates rather than dripping, with power and keep-warm indicator lights and an automatic switch to keep-warm once brewing finishes. Reviewers who kept it in daily rotation describe it heating quickly and holding coffee hot for later cups.
