I am very disappointed with this product because after a few weeks of use, the paint on the heating element is peeling off and there are scratches visible.Unfortunately, I do not think this product will last me very long.
This was everything Consumer Reports says it was.I love the coffe, the ease of operation, and itdoes not spill, or leak when I pour coffee. Greatitem.
Before purchasing a coffee maker I checked consumers Report. This unit was within my price range and received a favorable review.The unit arrived on time well packaged and in excellent condition.I wanted a unit that was straight forward and didn't have to have a lot of frills to break, just make a good consistant cup of coffee.This unit has exceeded my expectations for a unit in this price range.The timer works perfectly.I like that the water gauge is visible from both sides, the plate keeps the coffee hot for 2 hours and shuts off.This is a great looking unit that so far has been a joy to own.
The seller took it back and Amazon treated us fairly on the shipping charges. It lived up to all the bad reviews. This coffee maker is a piece of junk. We are going back to Mr.Coffee. This item had 3 stars and we ordered without reading all the reviews. Also, it was recommended by Consumer Reports. Very thin glass pot and also it does not fit nicely under the spout like it should - you have to wiggle it sometimes.
We are still not sure exactly what stopped working but we are in talks with Black & Decker to get it replaced. We were pleased with the auto on feature and this model worked great for us until one day it just refused to begin brewing.It had power, the buttons were working but it simply would not kick on and brew another pot of coffee. We bought this coffee maker in April 2008 after we got rid of our 10 year old Mr. Coffee maker. We only use it once a day and were disappointed that it was dead.
