Nice and Basic!Dex
This is a very short unit and it fits under our cupboards with several inches to spare. Been using it daily for a couple weeks, now and it works fine. When I first got it, I ran some diluted white vinegar/filtered water through it and followed that with 2 or 3 cycles of just plain filtered water and the coffee tastes great! Only 2 things to mention that could be improved upon, first, they have these holes on the back of the unit to keep you from overfilling it. Nice idea for safety, but if you fill it past the holes, your countertop is going to take a bath in all the excess water as you are filling it. This didn't happen to me, as I only make 1/2 pot of coffee at a time. Secondly, this unit (like all units I have owned) accumulates condensation under the lid and if you open it to fast a lot of water will race down the back of the unit. Open it slowly, and tap it a bit and no problem.
All around excellence at bargain pricing.Tesla
I had a Krupps and broke the pot. It would have cost me $23.00 with shipping to replace the pot. So I decided on this model of Mr. Coffee. Frankly, I just wanted a basic coffeemaker, no whistles and bells. Nothing complicated that required studying the book.Just a cheap replacement. This fit the bill.After having this Mr. Coffee for several weeks I can tell you I absolutely love it. It is a very well designed machine and the coffee tastes great too. Highly recommended. A bargain.
no frillsJulieannimal
This is a cheap coffee pot that works great. There are NO frills...just an on/off switch but the coffe is good and hot.
Great CoffeeCalamity Jane
Mr. Coffee machines have always provided me with tasty coffee at a great price. This machine is no different.PROS... It accepts the cheap generic coffee filters. Larger spout means not having to raise the lid before pouring. No drips or spills. Makes fast, delicious coffee. Pause feature. Simple to operate. One lighted on/off button. Nothing to program. No LCD screens to squint at in order to read and decipher. Larger opening in the glass pot makes for easy cleaning (dang those little four-cup brewers!)CONS... only one. The overfill holes are drilled into the largest part of the fill chamber, right where you would normally pour in the water. I flooded my counter before I realized what was happening. I now pour the water into the narrowest part of the chamber... where the drilled holes should be. Stupid design.Another reviewer encountered a cost differential between the black and white coffee maker. So did I. I opted for the cheaper white, but it shows coffee splatter. I solved this problem by using two filters instead of one. I moisten and fill the first filter with coffee grounds. I place a second filter over top of the grounds. I press the edges of the 2nd filter to the 1st to make it adhere. No coffee back-splash and coffee stain on the lid. The inside of the coffee maker stays clean.
Back to basics coffeemakerLeo R. Therrien
Although some have complained about this product lacking an auto shut off, to me that is not a big deal. At least now I have a coffee maker that keeps the coffee hot until I decide to turn it off. I don't need some computer chip to decide for me how long to keep my coffee hot. The simplicity of the product also means there is less to go wrong. It brews a great pot of coffee. The price is very reasonable, and who knows, this basic model may possibly last longer than one of those expensive,fancy multi option models. I am very happy with this simple manual on/off switch coffeemaker.
It's Still WorkingAdam Smith
I've used mine for 2 1/2 years.It's inexpensive.And it still works. And I have to add I know of no really bad features (but I am not an expert in coffeemakers).My only complaint (and it's pretty important) is the quality of the brewed coffee.This model has a "filter basket". I believe the ones that have a "cone" shape result in a stronger brew.Also, the resultant coffee does not taste hot enough.I believe that models differ in this regard, and that a hotter brew tastes better.
This is the pot!!Christie Malone
So I'm sitting here holding my favorite coffee cup filled with freshly brewed coffee from my new pot. Yes, I've only owned it about an hour but I feel compelled to share my experience.I must admit that I read each review, both for and against this pot, before actually owning it. I was wary of the posts that said the countertops were covered with water after making a pot or that the pot was filled with grounds, etc., so I paid close attention to each complaint as I ran a full 12 cup pot of water through to test so that I could still return it if it didn't work.I put the water exactly at the 12 cup line and when it was done percolating, it was EXACTLY at the 12 cup line on the pot again. Very cool! My last pot lost a few cups in the translation which was very irritating. Not this one! I love the basket and how it is flat. I love the arm that swings over the basket when ready to brew and slides back out of place when ready to empty the grounds. I know I won't be seeing grounds escaping the filter any more! (I never did understand those cone shaped filters) I am perfectly happy with a pot that has no bells and whistles. I had a pot for years that could program the time to auto make a pot and never used it once so if you are like me, this will suit you just fine. I don't need it to auto turn off after 2 hours (a feature not on this machine) since I shut it down when the pot is done dripping. I can reheat the coffee in the microwave! Mmmm. I'm going to start buying decaf so I can drink coffee and brew all day long after the initial pot to wake me up.Thank you, Mr. Coffee!!!
