Didn't last two years

 

Didn't last two years

Bought 10/10/08, died 8/20/10. Switch lights, but it doesn't make coffee. Either bad switch or bad heating element. 1 year warranty, so made a claim with my credit card company. You should note that this is a non-programmable coffee maker with a...

The under-$30 champ

Black & Decker continues to produce the best value in coffee-brewing. All the necessary stuff without bells and whistles. Set it, forget it, have excellent coffee. But caution: Amazon's product description says it comes with a water filter. Not mine....

This is NOT the coffee maker you're looking for

 

This is NOT the coffee maker you're looking for

From the very beginning, this machine didn't brew properly, little pieces of white plastic (?) settling down at the bottom of the carafe every so often. Now 4 months 4 days after I purchased it, it won't brew at all. It cost a bit too much for it to...

You may want to spend a tad more.

My wife and I bought this coffee maker about 4 years ago. We still have it and use it (and the programmable timer, which we love) nearly every day. I will say this; after about 2 years, the coffee container developed a leak. We contacted the company...

Do not buy this.

I bought this more than one years ago at a closing sales of a grocery store. It was $9.00 there because they wanted to get rid of all of their products. Well, I bought it because it was from a good brand, and because my former coffee maker (Mr. Coffee)...

B & D SmartBrew Coffeemaker

Reliable brewer makes good coffee, dependably. An auto-off feature would have been nice. Very easy to pour...no sloshes. The sneak-a-cup feature is OK if you don't mind very strong coffee. This is a bare-bones model with minimal features, but I would...

Nothing but the BEST!

 

Nothing but the BEST!

When you want a good cup of coffee, look no further. I have had all the expensive ones, but this is simple, DRIP FREE, and makes the BEST cup of coffee no matter what brand of coffee I have used!

It's a coffee machine and it makes coffee

 

It's a coffee machine and it makes coffee

I bought this to replace the same model which died after around 5 years of use. I give it 4 stars because I think it should have lasted longer given that it was not used every day. I chose this because I thought if the carafe broke I would have a spare...
