I have owned this for many years and it is in very good working condition. I have included a video of it in action. This is a complete set including cord. It makes 10 cups of coffee. If you have not owned a Corning Ware percolator before, please know they get very hot. This is a common factor with all models and this unit is no exception. I have owned Corning Ware and collected it from the time I got the plastic Blue Cornflower set as a child. This set is a wonderful addition to your collection and will be packed with great care.
