Great Coffee Maker at Fantastic Price

This is a great utensil. It does everything I want a coffee maker to, without paying for a bunch of unnecessary frills. The controls are simple and the clock/timer are very easy to set. I would buy it again without hesitation.

Enjoying My Black and Decker Coffee Maker

I use it at home and It is terrific perfect for my needs. I especially like that I can set it and wake to coffee when my feet hit the floor. I also like that i can hit the strong button for those friends who like their coffee a bit stronger.

Great coffee maker but....

This is exactly how it is pictured. However, I was very disappointed to find out when I opened it that it did not include the filter. It shows the filter in the picture, but when I open the box it did not have it little did I know that this model Does not include the permanent filter. So, I had to buy one other than that no complaints.

Simple and Great

I was looking for a simple well working coffee maker and I loved this one so much I bought two. My husband and I are coffee lovers and all we need is a solid coffee maker with few buttons. I love the strong button and brew later is great for early mornings.

Surprised

I make my coffee for morning drinking , usually 4 cups worth. Very easy to put in the ground coffee and water. Perks very nicely within a few minutes .The first cup of coffee is delicious ,no bitter taste at all .Usually drink my second cup within 20 minutes . That's where the problem is . In just that short time on the warmer mode of the coffee machine the coffee gets a bitter burnt taste . After 30 minutes on the warmer mode I cannot drink it. Have tried making coffee numerous times with the machine with same results .What I have to do is when the coffee is done percolating I will pour out my first cup to drink and take what is left and pour into a stainless steel container .This way the coffee stays warm with no bitter burnt taste when I am ready to drink the rest . Have to say the machine is nicely made and looks good sitting on the counter but i would not buy it again or recommend to anyone to buy the machine

Great for the price

Excellent product for the price. Keeps coffee hot and shows a count-down timer as to how many minutes before it shuts off - limit is 2 hrs. Able to press a button for a stonger brew. As stated by others, due to the pot/lid and water reservoir/lid it's not easy to fully empty water from the pot - but it is doable. Looks like lid on the pot should come off, but being it wasn't easily coming off, I didn't want to force it and risk breaking the pot. This model does not come with a copper coffee basket nor a coffee ground measuring spoon (too bad online photos of product are misleading).

More than a cup of coffee

I love this coffee maker because I'm not a 1 cup coffee drinker! Sometimes the day needs more caffeine to get a good start. Individual cups are fine for quick flavor changes but I'm a serious coffee drinker!

I would by this products again.

The coffee maker works great. When I purchased it, that was my purpose for going to BJ's that day. I went back and picked it out. When purchasing I discovered that I had reward points available and ended up with a great deal. Thanks BJ's.

A much better coffee pot than I expected for the price paid.

I like the full lift solid top cover. Easy servicing and NO steam vents on top to damage cupboards if near or under cabinets.

Easy and clean

I had to suddenly replace my favorite more expensive coffee maker anc I was pleasantly surprised with the B&D basic coffee maker. Easy to use, large top to pour water and no messy dripping. Makes a great pot of coffee and easy to program. #sweepstakes#

Great features ( and I mean it!!)

My old B&D started to leak water. I had it for many years. Thinking that Walmart would carry B&D I went there. No B&D and I ended up with a Mr. Coffee which looked somewhat like my old B&D. Big mistake. I hated it. I went online and found that Kohl's has the same B&D I had ( more or less) , which was on sale. I returned the Mr. C , bought the B&D at Kohl's and happiness has returned to my home.

Adequate Coffee Maker

This is only an adequate coffee maker for the price. Has a nice trim design. But filling the coffee maker with water is very awkward - very little room to empty the carafe. Also, coffee is not particularly hot. I'm also not satisfied with the taste of the coffee it makes. I think Mr. Coffee makers are superior.

Great economical coffee pot

I wanted a no-nonsense simple coffee pot at a reasonable price and found it in this Black and Decker product. Minimal buttons but still programmable and with a clock. Sleek modern design and generous 12 cup glass pot. The vortex feature brews your coffee in minutes. Great product from a reliable company. Very happy customer here.

Adjustable stay warm times a nice feature

It isn't my favorite coffeemaker ever owned but it does a good job. The large lid that has to be open to pour in the water requires this coffeemaker to be out from the cabinets and I have to pour it from the side. It does seem to be slow and I think the problem with the coffee filter folding over and allowing grounds to be in your coffee can be caused by taking too long to pour a cup of coffee mid-brew. I have pulled the spring mechanism that stops the flow of coffee when the pot is removed twice. I was able to pop it back on but seems flimsy.

Clock runs fast / No wire basket

I have had this for a month - put it into use 2 weeks ago. The clock gains an additional 12 minutes per hour. Impossible to program. The model shown is not what you get - Mine has 6 buttons, this has 4. No wire basket! This seems almost criminal. Stuck now with a poorly working coffee pot since I bought it a month ago and didn't keep the box.

Great value

This coffee makes great coffee and is simple to clean. I prefer the strong setting. It takes a bit longer to brew, but it's worth the wait. I love the modern design. It fits in well with the other appliances on my counter and doesn't take up a lot of space. Black & Decker products ate always reliable. #sweepstakes

The description is misleading

The BJ's description of this coffee maker they were selling included that it had a permanent filter so it would not need a paper filter. That was the specific reason that I bought it. Once I openec the box, I soon realized there was no permanent filter! Then I saw the booklet says that only one model included that. Of course, mine was a different model. I called Black and Decker and was told that was true. But, I could buy one for $15.00 which I reluctantly did.

Great product to own

As a coffee lover, I've owned many coffee makers. This one is probably one of the most convenient I've ever owned. It's pretty straight forward to use, pretty easy to keep it clean, and for me the most special feature it's the fact that you could program it to wake up with coffee smell all over the kitchen. Great brand to own in general

Not at all as advertised!

While I did appreciate the price discount when I picked this up at my local store in Riverdale; what they have on the shelves is NOT the same as what's listed on the web. The unit advertised indicates this comes with a permanent filter. I picked this up, unpacked it the next morning, ready to have a fresh cup of joe. Unfortunately, I had to go to another store to buy paper filters as this unit does NOT HAVE A PERMANENT FILTER AS ADVERTISED!!! Paper filters are a waste and inconsistent when it comes to brewing. There should be clear listings that they type and style of product may vary from location to location! Had I seen that text in the online listing, I would have taken my business elsewhere. I won't buy appliances from BJ's ever again until they get their act together.

The coffee maker looks cute on the outside but the rest is a disaster. The carafe is designed poorly so I spill coffee when I pour it no matter how carefully I pour it. The machine itself is made of materials known to the state of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm. That alone is a nightmare. The carafe is eggshell fragile and I've already shattered mine after two days of owning it. I purchased it in a rush as a replacement for a different black and decker coffee machine I purchased a year ago. The heating element stopped working after a year exactly and it would no longer brew. I intend to research my next coffee machine in the future before making a rush purchase. Now I have a brand new disaster of a coffee machine with no carafe. I couldn't find a replacement online anywhere. Other replacement carafes for black and decker cost nearly two thirds of the purchase price of what I would pay for the entire machine. It's ridiculous... I gave it two stars because the design looks cute, but that's it.
