      I mean....it has to survive in tough conditions, and has to be something that works in a crazy environment. The LAST thing you want when stressed on the job rushing to finish, is an overly complex coffee machine!

      That was a rumor, but the reality is that the original coffeemaker they made was already out in Japan before it was teased in the u.s. this one is the second edition, the first was 18v or 110/120v and was a little more basic.

    Keeping in mind that the people who would buy that most likely have 6 or 7 of those batteries just lying around, I am still quite disappointed that Makita didnt include one as well as the option to plug it in.

      each battery at full charge should give an hour or two of ugga duggas, and most rtadespeople probably want to stop for a coffee every few hours, so a small board to switch between battery charging, mains powered coffee maker and the cordless mode would be super handy- remember to change/recharge batteries when getting a coffee, and still have the portability

    A bit of information on that other coffee holder: it's made for *coffee PADS* (as in *"Senseo"* style pads) so you don't even have to measure the coffee (at least with the model sold around here)
    Just throw in a pad made for Senseo machines and push the button. Here in Europe/Germany those are kinda everywhere (I think the closest comparison in the US would be Keurig ?)

    As much as I love Makita products as a Weekend Warrior / DIYer, I cannot think of a single instance where this thing would be useful outside of being a trucker. When I do mud runs, or I'm on the road a good quality thermos suffices. My area is prone to power outages in a storm but I have a back up generator and a propane grill and camp stove. I go on vacation I bring my pour over and an insulated mug. I go camping I bring a camp stove and a percolator. At home I have my Instapod kurig knock off or french press and mokka pot if I'm feeling fancy.

    This is such a strange product. I don't really see it in use at a construction site, just because it only produces enough for one person, and I can't imagine the crap that one person would take for bringing their special little coffee maker to make their special little coffee lol. I, however, can see this would be something that would feel at home in a garage where you may have a lot of Makita tools already. Or even something you'd take with you in your work truck. Actually, thinking now, this looks like it wouldn't be too difficult to hack into specifically in-car brewing system.... Ooh, or even something for truckers.

    It's for a specific situation. It's not gourmet coffee, but that's not what you expect at a jobsite, as a trucker, a park employee, or anyone who spends time in remote or generally power-less situations. A French press is glass and it will break if you pour hot water in it when it's cold or if you are going down a 4x4 trail. This is built with no frills it's just coffee without an outlet or fire.

    I'm getting one. I love coffee and have tons of Makita tools and batteries in my shop so the cost is not prohibitive and it's super portable. Also don't buy just the battery. You can buy a drill or some other type of Makita tool and it will come with a battery ( or two) for just a little more money and you have some handy tools to keep around the house. I love our Makita dust buster vacuum.

    I’ve had one of these in the red Japan only color for about 2 years now and yes it makes an awesome cup of joe. The only thing that’s gone wrong with it over the years is the little mesh cup that holds the coffee grounds. The mesh is imbedded into the plastic cup and from being heated up so many times the mesh has risen to the surface and I can tell at some point it’s going to start falling off. Still works great tho two years in. Another complaint is this thing uses way more battery power than it says. It says a 6ah battery can make about 6 cups of coffee, that’s a lie. My brand new 6ah battery makes about 2 cups, sometimes only 1 and a half before it dies

    I wonder how many cups' worth of charge is stored in that massive battery. It looks like Makita makes a smaller battery and charger that's $70 (or $40 for just the battery) and which is what's used for many of their smaller tools, and it's also compatible with the coffee maker.

      Probably only 2 or 3. Boiling water needs a LOT of energy.

If one is attempting to reduce their carbon footprint, then Makita might be a brand of choice for the home owner. The battery for that equipment is the same for this coffee maker. In that case, it would be a nice addition to their existing equipment, esp., as you suggested, if they are also a camper . So, the market may be larger than you may have originally considered.
