Happy so far

 

Happy so far

I bought this a few weeks ago from the Amazon Warehouse. The coffee maker arrived in good condition and seems to be working well. I've not had any of the problems described by some of the other reviewers. This is my second Mr. Coffee coffee maker; I'd...

Great while it works!

I purchased this coffee maker in March of 2009 and was very happy with it until about a month ago when it began to stop brewing after about 2 cups. I tried cleaning it but the problem has continued so I just called Mr. Coffee today and complained. The...

disappointment

We had given up on Mr Coffee products, but this Mr Coffee promised all the functions we need in this house: auto shut-off, 2-hour thermal carafe, mid-range capacity, simple controls, all at a sensible price. We used it, delighted with our choice, for...

Not a good coffee maker

 

The thermal carafe is a good idea, but the top can be tricky to screw in just right. The coffee maker made about ten good cups before it started producing a strange burnt plastic taste. I also noticed low temperature coffee, which I had to reheat after...

Thermal carafe, good brew rate, attractive stylling

Top of carafe, burnt plastic taste, low temperature coffee

Leaks between plastic and metal parts of carafe, both while making and pouring coffee, but it's adequate.

Solid coffee maker if you can get under $50

 

I purchased after another Mr Coffee maker passed-on. I like the 8-cup size and durable stainless-steel carafe. It does a nice job of making coffee with good body and flavor (Seattle Best pre-ground and Dunkin Donuts whole bean). To get hottest coffee...

Precision skill to use pause and serve feature can be difficult in the morning

Safety Hazard!

 

Safety Hazard!

Although it says in the specs there is no warming plate, that is WRONG! The plate is heated! I put a burn mark on my table when I took the carafe off the base and set it at our table upon my first use. It takes the carafe bottom about 5 minutes...

Trust this coffee maker¿s double-wall stainless-steel thermal carafe to keep your coffee hot and fresh for hours. The handy Brewing Pause 'n Serve feature lets you pour a cup of coffee while the coffee maker is still brewing. Plus, the stainless-steel accent complements today¿s kitchens.
