We love the coffee maker. Before buying this my wife used a pour over and I used a cheap drip coffee maker. We did blind taste tests and in both cases preferred the Aiden. It's amazing the difference it makes. Such a smooth cup of coffee. It's expensive but now we have eliminated the need for two different brewing methods.

Is it beautiful and elegantly designed and conceived? Check! Does it brew tasty coffee will all kinds of personalization options? Check! Do I feel really cool and actualized for owning one? Check! But for the price, there is one meaningful design flaw. Unless of course there is a “rationalized” explanation from the coffee aficionados. The pot/carafe does not adequately keep the coffee warm or hot after brewed. There is plenty of technology out there (see Yeti) to model after in the carafe construction to retain adequate heat. Several of us coffee drinkers like to go back to the well for another cup later on. Problem is: the coffee is cold, tepid at best. I'll be waiting for Fellow to hear more about this opportunity from others and wait for them to send me a free replacement carafe in their next iteration of developing a really lovely and promising coffee maker.

Well so far the coffee maker itself has been great. It does an excellent job making wonderful coffee. My only complaint on the Aiden itself is that the lid on the water reservoir is maddening. The app however is completely useless. Most of the time spins, doing nothing. Eventually it seems to either crash or error out and makes me re-login to my account. And about half the time, the future that I'm looking for, scheduling, doesn't seem to even show up in the app. It's very weird. Thankfully I don't need it to use this machine. But because the app is so poor it would be nice if the display on the machine was a little more functional and larger.

Would like to give it 4. 5 stars. The customizable brewing parameters are just about perfectly balanced with ease of use. I would like for the option to first pick the grams of coffee and the recipes figure out the water rather than determining volume of water and being asked to measure out the coffee.

While I'm getting great results, there's too much math! I'm an iced coffee drinker who usually brew at 1:15, but where 5 parts of the 15 is ice. So I went to recreate my usual recipe on my new Aiden by setting a ratio of 1:10, and discovered it won't go lower than 1:14. Sure. I can brew at 1:15 and just make the coffee dosage 1/10th of the water dosage. But that means Aiden will insist I use the wrong brew basket in edge cases. And I'll have to explain the system to anyone else using my iced coffee profiles. Can we get ratios enabled that will make ready to flash chill concentrates? Down to 1:10, even 1:8? I don't wanna wait on the cold brew, and don't like that profile as well anyway.

I bought this in December. The water sensor has started to malfunction: says it needs water when it does not and uses more than the programmed amount of water on other occasions. Sometimes it works properly. When I went to file a warranty claim on the website it asked me to upload images of the problem. Really? I am suppose to hang out by my coffee maker to film it not working? The glitch is an unpredictable one. I am not going to run water through the coffee maker in hopes of catching it in the act.

The Fellow Aiden is easily the best coffee machine I've ever owned. It completely transformed my coffee experience! No more bitter or burnt flavors, just consistently smooth, great-tasting coffee. Huge credit to Fellow for creating such an exceptional machine. Thanks for making coffee great again!!

I find the Fellow Aiden materials and construction to be better than some reviewers led me to believe. I am very impressed with its ability to make practically any amount coffee I want to drink (I aim for small batches.). I find the aromas and temperatures to be just what I want and I get those consistently. The app was easy to load on my iPhone and using it is also simple (as of April 2026). The flexibility of precise pour-over details is amazing and somewhat mind-boggling. I REALLY like being able to make one clean, balanced, well extracted cup of coffee whenever I want!

100% recommend this machine! There are days when I'm simply enjoying one cup of coffee and other days where I'm making a pot for the whole fam. Knowing that I don't have to do any math early in the morning is an added bonus. The Aiden tells me exactly how many grams of coffee to add. I love that the Aiden is consistent across the board no matter what volume I'm brewing.

I like the overall setup and look. Happy to be able to remove the reservoir for filling, and having the thermal carafe. The brewing can be set up to be push and go, but, overall, the fiddly nature of two different baskets for two different brewing sizes, with a manual set of the water input over the basket, and a kind of number of cups cut off, means that I am not interested in using most of these features....
