Looking for recommendations on coffee makers. Preferably a drip coffee maker. I've been using a percolator for years and while it usually works fine, it doesn't always brew thoroughly if the water isn't cold enough.

French press is the cheapest, simplest way to brew coffee. You don’t need special filters, electronics (that break), or even an expensive one (I use a like $25 one from Amazon).

I know not what you asked for but realistically imo it’s the only one you’ll be buying for life.

I got a French press and used it for awhile. I'm extremely lazy though and got tired of having to clean the coffee grounds out of the screen. That's something I didn't consider before buying it. I switched to a chemex that I like much better. Yeah, there are disposable filters but it works better for me. If I were starting over, I'd probably just get some kind of pour over thing that fits over my mug. That would take up less space than the chemex.
