Coffee Yes ... But What a Mess! -- Using the Mr. Coffee VBX20

We have been using this Mr. Coffee 12-Cup Coffee Maker (model # VBX20) machine for about a year after a tragic accident involving the sink edge and a glass coffee carafe, which couldn't be replaced. This coffee maker has been a mix of experiences ......

programmable, removable filter basket, auto shutoff (a mixed blessing for us)

coffee maker splatters, color is white (shows every splash)

Better Than the More Expensive Ones We've Had

Only had this coffeemaker a few days, but have yet to find anything we DON'T like about it. Unlike the other reviewer, we do not have any problem with the filters folding over and causing a mess. It's very easy to pour, with no drips or spills; and...

Coffee maker "died" 3 days after guarantee expired

The computer that turns the machine on and off went crazy, then failed completely a relatively short time after purchase. Mr. Coffee won't sell replacement parts to the public. Result: the need to buy another coffee-maker (cheaper than taking the old...

Low Price. Good coffee

Lack of durability. Coffee didn't stay as warm as I would have liked

Great appliance!

I didn't have too many needs when I purchased this item. I needed something cheap, and one that I could preset a brew time. I got this one on sale at Target (not my choice of stores, but I just happened to be there) for $25. I've had it now for over a ...

Preset brew time works perfect, quickly makes coffee, results are tasty, great price.

Grounds sometimes found outside of filter basket.

Good coffee - good price

I researched several coffee makers before buying this one and could not find any that were programmable, with the "sneak a cup while brewing" feature that came close to this price. It is easy to use, easy to clean and takes up very little space. We...

Makes coffee; but design is complete garbage

After decades of making coffee pots, you would think that Mr. Coffee would figure out how to make a pot and lid that doesn't drip all over the counter as you pour coffee into your cup. The part of the lid over the lip of the pouring area catches the...
