I have been a dedicated coffee drinker most of my adult life. I enjoy a pot (or so) every day and have been doing so for decades. I always assumed due to what I have read that drip coffee was the best way to make coffee. I never questioned that thinking.
In another forum I peruse they were discussing what model and how best to use a coffee percolator. Their discussion got me really interested so I did some research. Evidently, in spite of what the "experts" think there is a very loyal minority following of percolator coffee.
That thread got me interested so I bought a (slightly) used percolator online just to try it out. It arrived last Tuesday and since I was off all last week I have been brewing and enjoying a pot every day. Percolator coffee has a different taste than drip coffee. It's "richer" and "nuttier" tasting.
I am just delighted with my purchase. I'll never go back to drip coffee.
If you do a little searching on the internet you can find lots of blogs that describe how some people really think that percolator coffee is better. the link below is but one example:

Is anyone else here a percolator coffee fan ?
