serves my needs well

This was my Christmas gift last year. I am the only one who drinks coffee at my house, and usually just 2 cups a day. I love flavored coffees. I used to use a small 4 cup with cone shaped filters and I was so tired of having coffee grounds in my coffee every morning, so Santa bought this one. I love it. Simple to use, works fast and I can switch out flavors easily. I buy my coffee thru Amazon subscription so I don't have to worry about trying to find the cups at the stores.


I have noticed that it seems louder than it was when I first got it, but that doesn't bother me. It's only for a minute. The only thing I don't like is that the water container seems small. I wish it was bigger so I didn't have to refill as often.

They sell a K-cup that you can reuse over and over again with your own coffee rather than buying their cups. I have it, I wasn't impressed with it. It's hard to get the grounds out of it when you want to brew another cup. It seems like you have to clean it after every single use. I buy the cups and save myself some aggravation.

Now that's a good cup of Coffee

If you are in a small office, have different tastes then the rest of your family, or just making one cup at a time then this is the best machine for you. The variety of coffee's, tea's, and hot chocolates made for this machine are top notch. I enjoy being able to have multiple cups a day of different flavors. What can I say this is the perfect coffee maker!!

The Keurig is OVER RATED!

I was at Bed, Bath & Beyond researching these coffee machines to replace my Starbucks Barista one cup/mug coffee maker (that thing makes a mess!). Anyway, there was someone demonstrating the Keurig. She showed me how it worked and made me a cup of coffee. I chose one of those non-popular brands (pumpkin spice), took a sip and wanted to throw it up. It tasted like cheap, truck-stop coffee!

Next to her display area was the Tassimo by Bosch (the newer model). I've already done my homework on this machine and knew that it was the better of the two. Tassimo makes great coffee and more popular brands unlike what Keurig has to offer. I also think that the K pods are clunky with way too much plastic for our landfills. Tassimo made more sense to me. I also like the fact that the Tassimo has a built-in water filter system that tells you when you're low in water. Keurig doesn't have that. All they have is over 130 unpopular coffee brands. Bosch did a great job with their Research & Development (R&D) to re-create this machine. The Braun version of this machine had a lot of problems but Bosch corrected them with this new machine. So, go out and get yourself a Tassimo and don't get the Keurig.

BEST COFFEE MACHINE OUT THERE

i love this machine we got the b60 and it makes the perfect cup of coffee and tea the earl grey is amazing perfect to the last drop
i weighed out the price and for what i spent throwing my reg coffee machine leftovers out or the whole thing if it didnt taste good plus the coffee i brought while out it was well worth it
bjs wholesale has a case of 80 for 32.00 but i do like the variety packs and most of them are fair trade which is even better.

A cup of coffee that is good to the last drop!

This is a totally new way for us to make coffee. We used to a Krups 12-cup auto-maker and have used that for years. But as our coffee drinking has slowed, we started looking at options and found one after a weekend trip at a friend's home. They had a Keurig on their counter and we thoroughly enjoyed the variety of flavors available as well as the ease of use.
So we bought a B60 model and absolutely love it! A good value product.
We have groups of people over for evenings and they like it as well. We use the Krups for decafe and the Keurig for regular since there are less people that want high test coffee after dinner these days.
Simple to use and to clean-up, plus we can offer multiple choices of coffee for every taste, any time.
We have bought two of the reusable coffee filter units that insert into the Keurig Brewer because the k-cup coffees are expensive by comparison. That way we can get our coffee made in the brewer since it isn't available in the k-cup system as yet.

Safe, Energy Efficient & Quick Results

I have read enough about the health hazards of microwave ovens to send me screaming into the night, and I refuse to use them to heat water.

As for the stovetop, tea kettles tend to corrode and what if you forget to turn the burner off??? This model shuts itself off after the job is finished.

This is my go-to method to heat water. I have one at home and one at my office.

The permanent, reusable filter is another "green" aspect of this product. Depending on what I am brewing, I sometimes choose to use a tea infuser.

Think a little outside the box, and this will work for instant soup, ramen noodles, etc.

I would never go back to either the microwave or the stovetop. This item is a "must-have" for both my home and office.

Great gift

I'm in the process of ordering a 3rd one. Mine is 3 years old and still going strong. I bought one for my dad last year, and ordering one for my brother-in-law this year.

The best feature is the AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF. No more being down the street and wondering if you turned the coffee pot off. Also, being a single person, a pot of coffee went to waste. Even if I want another cup, it's fast, easy, and fresh.

I've never had a problem with "lukewarm" coffee. In fact mine makes it to hot to drink (I'm not a coffee sipper). So I will start it, finish getting dressed, and my coffee is perfect. Also I've never had a problem with spillage.

I don't think you'll be unhappy with this product!

Great product!

I researched a lot of products of this type before deciding to purchase this product. It doesn't require expensive pods or filters, you can grind your favorite beans and pour them right in or use your regular morning blend straight from the grocery store. The travel mug is the perfect size and the stainless steel keeps your coffee at a great temperature even until the last drop. For the price, this a great value. I have used mine every day since it arrived. It took a couple of tries to get the perfect amount of coffee for the size of the cup, but once I figured it out, it has been great. One reviewer mentioned the sturdiness of the mug. The handle must have been what he or she was talking about. I wouldn't want to be rough with the handle, but with normal everyday wear, I think it will still hold up to the usage. Great product - perfect price!

Only If You Don't Want the Coffee Hot

I am not a heavy coffee drinker, but over the last few months I've gotten into the habit of drinking a tall coffee each morning from the store across the street from my job. To save money, I decided I should get a small personal maker for my daily cup. On the surface, this seemed like the idea coffee maker for someone like me as it brews only a single large mug straight into a nice portable mug with a spill-resistant lid. Unfortunately, it has no lived up to its image. The coffee does not come out hot at all, its barely lukewarm as the included mug is not microwave safe, it can't be used to heat the coffee up to the proper temperature. It also is lacking any sort of "keep warm" function, turning itself off before the coffee is even done coming out. I am very disappointed in this particular maker and am returning it. I will say, though, if you don't like your coffee hot, it does brew nicely. The included filter is very easy to clean and works quite well. I just prefer an actual hot cup of coffee.

Nice and adequate

If you're making coffee just for one and don't want to mess with a 12 cup pot and the clean up thereafter, this Black & Decker is a pretty good choice. You do need to stick to the recommended 2 1/2 tablespoons of grind. Otherwise, it just clobbs together and you don't get a full mug of coffee. Clean up is mostly a cinch. The netting on the filter is sturdy for now. I do worry about accidently punching through it one day when I'm not paying attention and scrub too aggressively. (Yes, it will survive the dishwasher fine too. But if you use it everyday like I do, you just end up hand washing.) My only real complaint is that it's a little awkward to clean the inside of the unit itself once you take the basket and filter out. There's the 2nd basket which is attached to the unit and grinds sometimes overrun it and the inside of the lid. But you obviously can't dunk the whole unit under running water b/c it still has electrical components within the base.

Overall, however, I'm pretty happy with the coffee maker. Takes up less space on the counter and makes just the right amount of coffee during the week.

Love it. One note of caution/recommendation....

This cofee-maker has served me well; but before buying it I read lots of comments regarding condensation from the lid splashing all over the counter when you flip the lid to dump the grinds. This happens when you don't vent the condensation from the inner compartment. To prevent that from happening-when your coffee is done brewing and you hear the beep letting you know it's done; lift the lid only about 2 inches and let go; this releases the lid on a hatch and will hold the lid slightly to allow the condensation to run down the underside of the lid and into the slope that leads back into the reservoir, preventing it from getting everywhere. Then, and don't ask me how this happens, the lid releases all on it's own. I've been trying to figure out how the lid knows when to close; I'll just assume it's done using a little bit of magic, so as to prevent any kind of blow to my ego...

Leaks water all over the counter

I have had this product for about a year. About 6 months ago it started leaking water out of the bottom of the coffee maker. My wife loves the way it looks. It makes excellent coffee. I especially like the adjustable temperature control on the burner. However, I would not recommend buying this machine because of the water leaking problem.

Not happy - will return this

This is the first review that I have written. This coffee maker has several faults. 1. the caraf lid is a terrible design 2. coffee leaks out on to the heat plate when removing the caraf partway through brewing (this is variable and I can't figure that out) 3. the controls are not user friendly.
For the money I think this is not worth it. I will be returning and buying a lesser expensive unit.

Very Good Coffeemaker

I just recently purchased the model. I therefore can't attest to its longevity/reliability. It appears to be at the top of what I have had or is out there but I have not owned. All coffeemakers seem to have flaws but most can be overcomed. This makes excellent coffee and that is what matters. Who cares about the cup thingy in the water container- you fill the pot and it tells you the number of cups. The water holder seems no worst others but the fact that the pot pours without spilling makes the small opening a no issue. I don't use most features as I prefer making my coffee when I want a cup. I never set the auto brew as I don't trust most electrical appliances that might cause a fire. This is surely the best coffeemaker, for the money, on the market. Just don't worry about some of the minor complaints because other coffeemakers do not even come close to this one.

Cuisinart DCC-1200, fairly typical for Cuisinart

Our Cuisinart DCC-1200 lasted less that 2 years. Like many Cuisinart products, it's pretty badly underdesigned. The water load is very narrow and back right--tough for lefties and easy to spill over even for righties. The parts are expensive--especially that charcoal filter you have to replace every 2 months. Don't try brewing without it--even with the filter in place, ONE piece of coffee grounds in the heating plenum below the water tank and you might as well throw it all away. The assembly is done with rivets instead of screws so there is no way to get at the lower plenum to clean it properly--again, fairly typical Cuisinart planned obsolesence design. It's a French hunk of junk if you ask me. My $20 Mr Coffee brewed great coffee for almost 10 years before it died. I'll not buy Cuisinart again.

1. Total immersion of the grounds in the water results in rapid yet robust extraction of flavor
2. Because of the lower temperature and short brew time, the acid level of the brew is much lower than conventional brewers.
3. Micro-filtered coffee so pure and particle-free that it can be stored for days as a concentrate.
4. AeroPress is chamber is nearly self-cleaning. A 10-second rinse of the plunger is all that's required.
5. Compact, perfect for camping.

A few tips

This truly is a great coffee maker. I have one at work and two or three at home (in case one breaks).

The manufacturer says you can reuse the filters, and you can! Oh baby. A filter lasts me 2 days to a couple of weeks. Maybe longer. The upshot is that a pack of filters will last a very long time. Eventually, the filters will get torn, and you'll have to replace.

Here's another tip. Sand down the rim of the filter holder to make it flat. I used a fine grit sandpaper on a flat surface and sanded down the rim until I saw uniform scuff marks on the whole surface. Why do you want to do this? So that the filter is held tighter and doesn't fall out when you go to throw out the grinds -- it's a real drag to dig through the trash can to get the filter back.

Best Coffee EVER!

This funky little gadget makes an incredible cup of joe! My husband and I were given the AeroPress as a gift and we were so happy with it that we gave our standard coffee maker away. It takes a little getting used to, but once you figure it out, there is no going back. The bonus of this product is that there is no electricity needed, so we travel with it and even take it camping! We love the AeroPress and have since bought it for several of our friends.

Boy I'm glad noone snatched it up!! I love it!!! Great tasting coffee in a snap!!! I would definetly buy another when this gets wore out!!!

Love my new coffee pot

If you want hot coffee just for a couple of people this is the pot for you. My wife was just tired of having the big Mr Coffee sitting on our counter when she only really needed 10 cups of coffee a couple of times a year. She says "this percolator is beautiful and makes a nice addition to the kitchen". One thing to be careful of is the coffee gets really hot. I don't use any cream or milk so I pour mine before making breakfast. My wife uses milk so hers is just right as is.

Pray you won't need the warranty!

We have used Farberware Percolators since the 1960's. Our last purchase, an eight cup, lasted only one month. Still in warranty, I called to make a claim. I found the "customer service rep" so uncooperative and plain hateful that I decided to skip the warranty and go elsewhere. The "lady" that I talked to is meaner than water moccasin.

Makes great coffee.

I bought this coffee maker about 8 months ago and have used it almost every day since. It makes consistently excellent coffee, hotter and MUCH fresher tasting than any automatic drip I've ever had. It is no harder than an automatic drip maker to clean and you don't have to deal with soggy filters. In fact, usually I make coffee in the morning and wash the percolator at night and actually ENJOY cleaning the percolator because it's all stainless steel and easily gets cleaner than the plastic parts of an auto-drip. Part of it is because you can actually hand wash every surface the water and coffee will touch, unlike the plastic reservoirs you dump water into on an auto-drip. I actually get cravings for coffee at night while I'm cleaning it and look forward to the morning when I can brew another pot. When I periodically clean it with Dip It cleaner for percolators, it's like having a brand new percolator. To sum up: FRESH, delicious coffee!
