This coffee maker has received great reviews and continues to rank as one of the best multi-cup coffee brewers on the market, but its best feature is that it can be programmed the night before to brew you a fresh pot of coffee in the morning (who doesn't want to wake up to the smell of coffee?).

An eye serum and caffeine in one bottle? Count me in.
