This very elegant and high-quality Glass coffee maker is new in the box. Please see the below video on how to make coffee on this coffee maker. Since the coffee does not touch anything but the glass, you get the best taste of coffee when you make coffee with Cona Coffee Makers. Please note that we do open the boxes to make sure the glass is not broken before we ship out the unit. Also, the original box is dated as they were in storage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1miAybIL_B8
