Cuisinart DGB-300 Automatic Grind and Brew 10-Cup Coffeemaker, White


... Coffeemaker worked well, but the lid keeps popping up and the machine stops when the lid is up. Sent item back the first time because the lid was broken. Next one was not broken, but won't stay shut. Would not buy a cuisinart again. Bought this for my son and his wife for Christmas. Not happy with it at all. I purchased a Cuisinart 2 yrs ago,also a grind and brew, and it quit working. Will not buy a Cuisinart coffeemaker again. ...

ROWENTA/KRUPS FMF5-14 10C Thermal Coffeemaker


... This is our second Krup FMF5. It makes excellent coffee, has a thermos pot that keeps coffee hot, provides "coffee interruptus," and can be operated without its water filter. However: (1) it requires conical filters, so you have to wet the filter as a chemist does to keep grounds out of your coffee. (2) It leaks -- it leaks unpredictably, and the useless water gauge with numbers so tiny a magnifying glass is required, is just one of the places where water leaks. Today, the useless water gauge was spouting. These cheap things made in China cost $100, so we are moving to a different brand. ...

Saeco Renaissance Renaissance Glass Coffeemaker 55-oz.


... Got the coffee maker for only $58 at our local Sam's Club-looks like it was a special for the holidays.
Real easy clock. Super strong glass (10 cups).
1000 watts - coffee hot enough.
Takes a few min to brew - but with the programable clock no problem.
Basket filter - NOT cone shape- ( oh well ).
The clock shows you how long the coffee has been sittin since it was brewed...neat.
Looks great on counter and plug wire stores in the back of maker.

CONS: Stays real wet inside...with dew....all day...kind of weird?

Would say it was well worth what I paid!

Kalorik CM-17442 Aqua Line 12-Cup Coffeemaker, Chrome/Glass


... I loved the way this coffee maker fit in with my decor! My only complaint is that when you pour coffee out of the carafe, it drips back and you can't avoid coffee on your counter. Very annoying. If this annoys you, don't buy this coffee maker. I overlook low tech for decor. ...

Mr. Coffee 4-Cup Switch Coffeemaker


... This coffee maker is a great buy. I paid $15 for it 3 years ago and I've had no problems at all, although it seems to have slowed down just a bit in terms of brewing time. It generally brews slower than other coffee makers I've seen, but that also means you probably get a better cup of coffee. ...

West Bend 58002 12-42 Cup Automatic Party Perk


... I have one 42-cup West Bend coffee urn, two 30-cup West Bends, and one 100-cup. All have functioned flawlessly and repeatedly for the past 12 years. I tried two of the fancier looking imported stainless steel models (Waring), and one of them stopped working after only the 5th use. So now I will stick with dependable West Bend models. ...

Capresso 454 CoffeeTEAM-S Coffee Maker/Burr Grinder Combination


... This is my second Capresso 454, the first one lasted 8 years before the element gave out and it was leaking while brewing. I do note that the new one is improved from the old one and I do not foresee it leaking like the old one did. It also has a led light that remains on all the time unlike the old one that would go out while not in use. I do find that the new perforated papers work better than the non perfs do. Works great drinking coffee brewed this morn. right now. ...

Bosch TAS4511UC Tassimo Single-Serve Coffee Brewer, Silk Silver


... Got this for 08 Christmas..
now June and it starts flashing weird codes and finally just stops working.. won't even power up.

[....]

Check the dates on the reviews at this site and you will see that after about 10 months these things start to self-destruct.

Apparently they were released before they had all the bugs worked out OR they it is just bad engineering.

Regardless, I just hope they are not unloading the lemon as replacements and/or selling them online.... of course it is quite possible that they have still not fixed the problems(s).

Today , I get to call the company and see if they will replace and how fast.

I will let you know how that goes!

Mr. Coffee 12-Cup Programmable Cone Coffeemaker, Black


... At first I was concerned about the narrow aperture for filling the reservoir but that has not been a problem. The unit is easy to operate and program. I did not need the instructions. I makes HOT coffee quickly. I like the timer feature that shows with a graphic timer how long the pot has been brewed. The Water filter seems a bit weak. I would guess it would filter out sand or seashells but honestly it couldn't be that effective.

You can easily spend more that two times the price and get a worse unit from another manufacturer. ...

Black & Decker DCM580B 5-Cup Coffeemaker, Black


... This coffee-maker works just fine and brews cups of coffee with no problem. I'm a regular coffee drinker (not a barista or coffee gourmet) and sip a couple of coffee daily. The beauty of this machine is that it is very simple to use. Put a couple of scoops of coffee, pour water, and press start, then that's it. I once had a espresso machine that had many parts and needed some tricks to make a coffee. My family got tired of using and washing that machine, and soon lost the interest about espresso. This machine is just straightforward coffee machine without any frills except that timer feature. I like the permanent filter came with the machine. One trick to brew a good coffee using this machine is that don't grind your coffee beans too fine, otherwise finer bean particles pass through the filter and make sediment in the carafe. ...

Braun KF580 AromaDeluxe 10-Cup TimeControl Coffemaker, White


... I got this coffeemaker when my old Braun (a model a step down from this- without the time feature) bit the dust after 14 years. To me, the coffee I get from a Braun is consistently better tasting than other models. Before I got this, I tried cheaping out and getting a Hamilton Beach that was onsale at Kmart, because I couldn't find a Braun in a brick-and-mortar store. After a week of the Hamilton Beach I ordered this Braun online because the coffee was tasteless, it took FOREVER to brew one cup, and the carafe was hard to clean.

What I like about this Braun is that it brews VERY quickly, the coffee tastes good, it is easy to clean, and easy to program for automatic brewing. I have not been using the gold filter - I got grounds in my cup once - and I"m used to using paper so I just don't use the gold one, no big deal.

The only minor thing I don't like is, that the clock for automatic brewing is losing time. In 2 weeks it loses about 2 minutes. I can deal with this by reprogramming the correct time, but it is annoying.

All in all though, I would recommend this product. It was a good deal for the money and I hope it lasts me another 14 years. ...
