5.0 out of 5 stars Works Great, July 1, 2008

By	K. Marsh - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

After two weeks' use, I am very pleased with this machine. I didn't really need a programable feature or the charcoal filter, but it's easy enough to just leave the filter out and turn it on manually. I have always used the cone type filters as I thought they would make better coffee, but I find the basket filters are just as good or better. This machine makes great coffee, is easy to load, easy to clean, and matches my other stainless and black kitchen appliances perfectly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than my old Cuisinart!, August 17, 2008

Don't let the low price scare you off -- this is a quality coffeemaker.

I just moved into a new place with stainless appliances, and decided to replace my white Cuisinart DCC1200 12-cup Brew Central (worked sort of OK, made decent coffee, but had some issues -- see other reviews for details).

After checking reviews, it looked like NONE of the 12-cup coffeemakers were rated all that high. I decided to opt for low price, thinking that if it didn't work out, I wasn't out all the much.

At nearly half the cost of the Cuisinart, this Black & Decker performs beautifully, besting the higher-priced maker in nearly every aspect: ease of use, quality of brewed coffee, ease of programming, ease of cleaning, and features.

As an example: I like my coffee a little on the strong side. With my former maker, I had to use more coffee to get the flavor I wanted. With this unit, I simply click on the "brew strength" button to select "strong," and I get exactly the right strength with less coffee.

Programming is very straight-foward, too. And I like the blue background lights for the display as well as the water level.

Easy to use, attractive to look at, and it makes great coffee, all for a very reasonable price: what more could you want?

2.0 out of 5 stars Shuts Off At Completion Of Brewing; Cold Coffee, January 27, 2009

By	M. House - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It seems to brew OK and the taste is what I would expect. The clock hasn't done anything strange yet and it brews to completion. I really like the carafe/pot; it's nice to see that someone can make one that doesn't cause coffee to pour down the side of the pot and onto the counter. The one problem that will probably cause me to return the coffee maker is that it keeps shutting off immediately after the coffee finishes brewing. It's supposed to stay on for two hours, but it shuts off almost every time it finishes. Since it shuts of, the warmer doesn't keep the coffee hot. By the time I get around to pouring it into my thermos, it's lukewarm. If I press the power button again, it will try to brew for a minute or so, and then it beeps again as if it's finished brewing, except this time the unit stays on. It should stay on after the first brew cycle; I shouldn't have to turn it back on again.
