Proctor-Silex Coffeemaker,
By
This review is from: Proctor-Silex 48574 Automatic Drip Coffeemaker (Kitchen)
The only complaint I have is when you pour the water in or pour a cup of coffee. The pour spout is too small and you have to pour slowly!! Sometimes that doesn't even work and I end up with paper towels moping up the counter top. I have bought this brand for years because it last longer than any coffee maker I have ever bought!!! If they fixed this problem it would be a perfect coffee maker!!!!!!!!

This review is from: Proctor-Silex 48574 Automatic Drip Coffeemaker (Kitchen)
We've used Proctor-Silex products in our home before and expected a product of slightly better quality.
This coffeemaker functions, but only on a very basic level. The entire unit is light and flimsy-feeling (it moves every time you press one of the buttons on the front), and it's nearly impossible to load it with water without spilling the contents of the carafe. The LCD clock is ridiculously small and virtually unviewable. The LED lights in the switches are so tiny and dim that you can't readily discern whether or not the appliance is even on. If the carafe seems smallish, that's because it is. The "12-cup" claim is dubious, because Proctor-Silex is apparently now using a smaller cup size in making their measurements. Our former machine would make enough coffee to fill our 11-ounce coffee mugs a total of six times. This coffeemaker will fill four 11-ounce mugs, with perhaps a couple of quarter-cup servings left over. I can't really fault Proctor-Silex for making this appliance -- they need machines at all price points, and it DOES make coffee. But there are NO "bells and whistles," and the entire things just has a "cheap" feel about it. We're already looking forward to replacing this model, and you can be assured that the next time we'll bite the bullet and spend a few dollars more to get something a bit better.

Good value,
This review is from: Proctor-Silex 48574 Automatic Drip Coffeemaker (Kitchen)
A few days ago, I received 2 of these coffeemakers to replace the large and cumbersome coffeemakers that I had been using. I make both regular and decaf coffee daily, which I then put into thermos carafes. I like the fact that the coffee is very hot and the coffeemakers are light and easy to move around. I have not had them scoot on the countertop when pushing the buttons (as another reviewer reported). I have not had the coffee spill when pouring.
Another reviewer also complained about the dimness of the clock face -- but I prefer it to be dim. It is very visible when I need it, but do not depend on it as a clock (I have other clocks). I find the glaring red numbers on other coffeemakers to be very annoying. Another plus is that when I remove the coffee basket, there is no puddle of liquid under the filter (as my other maker was wont to do). I prefer paper filters, rather than the permanent filter and they work well in the basket. The only drawback I have found is that the water reservoir is difficult to fill without spillage (but I circumvent that by using a 1 liter measure to fill, rather than trying to pour from the pot). Other than that I am very satisfied with my purchase.
