BLACK+DECKER 5-Cup Switch Coffee Maker

I am so impressed with this coffee maker. I have tried cheaper ones and when you would pour the coffee it would leak onto the counter. But this Black and Decker is the best coffee pot I have had in a long time. You need to order the smaller filters and not the larger ones.

I gave the Black Decker 5 cup coffee maker a well deserved five stars. It matched or exceeded all of my coffee making expectations. It's smart design lets me clearly see the water level in the reservoir. There's a super wide area for pouring water in. Brews up my coffee within three minutes and not one drop of coffee dripped out when I removed the carafe. My coffee has a nice rich coffee taste. Not a burnt taste like my previous slow as molasses coffee maker. And the price of the Black Decker 5 cup coffee maker really can't be beat. So I'm a very pleased coffee drinking customer.

This little 5-cupper works great. It makes very hot coffee and keeps it warm until you turn it off. The opening to pour your water in is large and makes it easy to fill with no spills. Takes about 10 minutes to brew and drain water from filter. When on sale for $21 it's a great bargain. No telling on longevity but so far I like this small machine.

My husband and I each only drink one cup of coffee in the morning. Filling the coffee maker up to the "4 cup line" is the perfect serving for us. We considered getting a fancy, single-serve coffee maker, but they're ridiculously expensive. It brews just the right amount of coffee; the coffee maker is small in size; and brews delicious, HOT coffee. We are able to see the blue light switch when it is turned on. The only cons are that it does not have an auto shut-off feature, and that it does not come with a reusable filter basket for the grinds (I bought one separately at Walmart). Nevertheless, we are very pleased with our purchase.

It makes good coffee, and I love the 5 cup size. It's very difficult to find round coffee filters that fit it well. I've settled on unbleached ones that are designed for a larger pot and they work well. I would have preferred cone shaped filters and a little smaller unit (I had an old one that I loved, but they only last 4-5 years) and are not available any more.

I ALWAYS PURCHASED BLACK %26 DEKER COFFEE MAKERS...BUT I AM LITTLE DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE IT LEAKS A LOT. I WILL OF COURSE USE IT, BUT THE QUALITY HAS CHANGED. TO BE HONEST THE PRICE WAS REASONABLE AND I CAN'T AFFORD SPENDING $60.00 OR MORE FOR A COFFEE MAKER.

Only redeeming quality that sets it apart from most others in it's price range is the large opening to fill the water reservoir. Negative features include very stiff on/off switch, no safety timed self kill switch and it drips a few times when you get a cup before brewing is completed. Frankly, I would have returned it if not for the easy to fill water reservoir.

I bought this coffee maker because it was advertised on the website as having an automatic shut off. It does NOT have an automatic shutoff. There are no visual instructions that show how to place the basket into the coffee maker so that the water runs through the middle hole. The first time I used it, the basket simply filled up and did not drain into the carafe.

This product is not as advertised. The description online says it DOES come with a permanent filter. Open the box and there is no permanent filter and an italicized line on the pamphlet saying permanent filter not available in all models. After reading other reviews it clearly wasn't left out by mistake it simply doesn't come with one, although Walmarts description online says it does

Save your money, soon as I got it the glass broke on the carafe. The replacement carafe is more than the actual machine itself to replace. Worse purchase should have kept my back up!
