4 out of 5 stars Pleased   September 13, 2008

I purchased the coffee maker approx. 1 month ago and am very pleased with the performance. The removable water tank is very convenient. The coffee stays warm for a long time with the thermos style carafe. I would highly recommend this product.

4 out of 5 stars Works Good, No Problems, A Bit Bulky...   August 29, 2008
C. Alfano (New Jersey)
This coffee maker was a replacement for a "hot plate" model of a diffrent brand. I have been using it for one month now & have no major complaints. I make about 6 cups a day. 4 to bring to work in a thermos and 2 to drink in the morning. It makes an ok cup of coffee. I have used both pre-ground and non pre-ground coffee beans that I grind my self in a Black & Decker coffee grinder. The unit is a big bulky and comes close to hitting the bottom of my cabinets, but the stanless-steel look works well with the other kitchen gadgets on the counter.


2 out of 5 stars Poor Reliability   August 10, 2008

1. I bought the product in November of 2006 and used it daily for 6 months before the buttons on the programmer/clock set touch pad began to pop off.

2. Now, I am relegated to plugging it in only when I want to brew coffee; the clock is somehow stuck in a continual "set" feature and the time scrolls through continuously. Perhaps this is an energy efficiency feature that I have simply overlooked... The clock/timer feature reminds me of my first digital watch ca. 1979; Star Wars, which after a few months did the same thing. It appears the designers of this fine brewing machine did not grasp the advances in electronic technology over the past 30 years.

3. Brews well, but the alignment of the pot under the basket takes some getting used to.

4. The cone filter frequently gets pushed down on one side during the brewing process, which makes for a granular experience when drinking the final one or two cups of coffee.

5. Don't be fooled; the looks of the unit are nice, but the reliability is not what one would expect.

I've had B&D coffeemakers in the past. They were OK Maybe not perfect but just OK. This one however I think is cheaply made and so light weight you have to be careful not to pull the whole thing off the counter top. I would suggest a few dollars more and get something like a CuisinartCuisinart DCC-1150BK 10-Cup Programmable Thermal Coffeemaker, Black you even get a gold filter and a water filter.
