Wouldn t this make a great gift for a student, or a commuter? The machine brews right into the thermal travel mug and then shuts itself off, so your favorite coffee lover can simply grab and go!

#Great inexpensive product (2008-12-02) This is a great product. It is perfect for people who insist on a fresh brewed cup. I use the inexpensive round basket filters folded in half and half again. I insert them with 3 sections on one side and one section on the other in order to trap the grounds. This is my second machine over the last 15 years. The first is still in use at a friend s house. I have made thousands of freshly brewed cups with no problems and little expense. I had to throw the included mug away, however, because an unpleasant smell from the plastic liner would neve...

#Blujay (2008-11-28) This product works as advertized. It makes a great cup of coffee. I did not get any grounds in the cup as others have noted. I think the finer the grind may cause grounds to slip through the filter. I wish the stainless steel cup was also stainless in the inside instead of plastic.

#Black N Decker wonderful (2008-11-26) This is a wonderful coffee maker. I have had one for 5 yrs and it has never failed me. So, I bought one for my friend for Christmas. . It is an excellent gift. She will just love it! I know I love mine!!!!

#Loved it - until it broke (2008-11-25) I got this as a Christmas present in 2007 and I loved it. I didn t use it very often, maybe a few times a month, but it was very convenient and I had no problems with it. Recently, I made coffee one day, and the very next day the machine wouldn t turn on. I tried all the outlets in the kitchen. . . nothing. I don t know if something internal burned out or what, but the light won t come on when I push the switch, and it s been dead ever since. I would consider buying another, but I don t want it to die on me in another year!

#travel coffee maker review (2008-11-24) This product was exactly what I had thought it was going to be except I think it could be made smaller for traveling purposes. Delivery was very good, I got it in a matter of 2-3 days.

The Cuisinart automatic 12-cup coffee maker uses the same brewing system found in commercial coffeemakers so you can be assured of getting a truly satisfying cup of coffee. With its 12-cup capacity, you can bet the other 11 cups are going to be equally tasty. Easy to clean Gold Filter with easy swing-out basket Brew Pause Color - Black with brushed stainless-steel accents

#best coffeemaker (2008-12-02) I love this coffeemaker. coffee comes out Hot! you can even control the temp. coffeepot has many great settings and features. Brews coffee very well without having to waste extra coffee just to get an average strenght cup of coffee. I have and will recommend this to anyone.

#TAKE IT FROM A COFFEE ADDICT (2008-11-30) THIS COFFEE BREWER MAKES THE BEST CUP OF COFFEE!!! I GRIND MY JAMAICAN BLUE COFFEE DAILY, SOMETIMES 2X, AND THEN LET THE CUISINART BREWMASTER FINISH MAKING NECTAR OF THE GODS!!! LOVE THE ADJUSTABLE HEAT TOO IT KEEPS YOUR COFFEE JUST THE RIGHT TEMPERATURE.

#Excellent Coffeemaker (2008-11-30) The Cuisinart DCC-1200 12-Cup Brew Central Coffeemaker is the best coffeemaker I ve ever purchased and I ve been buying coffee pots for almost 50 years. I just purchased my second Cuisinart Coffeemaker, they last forever and the coffee brewing never slows down. You get a full pot of coffee within 5 minutes. Excellent product!

#Makes great coffee but has some issues (2008-11-29) Overall, the coffee maker makes great coffee. There are some inconveniences and short commings with the product. The water fill opening is small compared to previous makers I owned making it difficult to fill without spilling. There are 2 small openings at the top to fill but one uses the charcoal filter dipstick. Tne other has a stairstepped fill indicator. This is another shortcomming. You have to look from above to see the number of cups of water you are putting in. The less coffee you make the harder it is to see. I would...

#Good Coffee (2008-11-29) Brews a very good cup. Easy to use. Only thing that I didn t like was the size of it, very monolithic.

Perfect Pour Carafe with dripless spout & ergonomic handle. One-piece cover for access to reservoir & brew basket. Easy to clean touch-pad controls. Water fill & coffee brew markings on carafe. Sneak-A-Cup Interrupt Feature. Two Water level indicators. 24-Hour programmable digital clock timer. Dimensions: 13.5H x 8.75W x 11.75D Weight: 5.50 lbs

#B&D Coffee Maker (2008-12-02) I ordered the B&D coffee maker after my old Mr. C. gave up the ghost. First, I read Consumer Reports. Then I ordered their top rated coffee maker. No regrets! This is a great coffee maker. It has a very comfortable grip on the carafe and pours beautifully, with no drips. Maybe I m just dreaming, but the coffee actually seems to taste better than with my old maker. Bottom line -- it s an outstanding product at a great price.

#Disappointed (2008-11-30) Black& Decker DCM2500 SmartBrew 12-Cup CoffeemakerAfter much research, I purchased this Consumer Reports highly rated Best Buy 6 weeks ago. While it makes a great cup of coffee, the carafe leaks. It seems to be coming from the area where the plastic handle/spout component joins the glass. I have attempted to resolve this with Black and Decker, only to find out that they have sold this product line to Applica. Attempts to contact Applica reroute me back to the Black and Decker web page where I started. I give up.

#Coffee Maker Has A Few Issues. (2008-11-26) I had ordered this product and had to send first one back cause water resivour was cracked and leaked. Second one I recieved works but has some issues. Good: Makes a good cup of coffee, very well designed coffee pot, pause and serve feature works like a charm (no drips whatsoever), nice looking coffee maker. Bad: Digital clock display has been messed up from day one, acts af if parts of display are burned out at times and other times shows correctly, when you raise lid to add water the condesation runs off it and always ends up on counter,...

#fine product works as advertised (2008-11-23) I bought this because of 3 reasons:*cheap price*auto shut off after 2 hours*automatic pauses dripping when you remove pot.

#Black & Decker Smart Brew (2008-11-23) This is a Consumer Report Best Buy. And, it certainly makes an excellent pot of coffee. I ve had several coffee makers, but none of them compare to this one. If you re an avid coffee drinker, you need this coffee brewer.

Many coffeemakers make 6 or more cups of coffee. How often do you need 6 cups? If you really appreciate coffee, then, chances are, you like each cup to be freshly brewed Note - your Good Old Favorite Mug may or may not fit in this coffeemaker--experimentation is the key!

#Black & Decker one cup coffee maker (2008-12-02) The Black & Decker Cup-At-A-Time makes one small cup of coffee at a time. When new it does have a plastic taste. I hope this will go away over time. You can wash the brew basket in the dish washer but not the main unit. No cup is furnished so you need to furnish your own. Forget a tall cup, it will only handle a small one. Make sure you put a cup under the nozzle before you turn it on. As soon as you turn it on coffee comes out immediately. I do not plan to use the furnished wire basket. Instead I found that a regular 8-12...

#Very good coffee maker (2008-11-29) I ve had this coffee maker for about 10 years now. I use it mainly on weekends - maybe 5 cups/week. I have never had a problem with it. It makes very good coffee without the waste of making a whole pot (I m single). It s not an eye catcher sitting on the counter - but, what do you want for [. . . ] bucks. It s very good at it s intended purpose. The only issue that I have is with cleaning the inside water tank. It s pretty nearly impossible to get anything in there to clean it. After a while, a calcium build up will result with a change in col...

#Instant Hot Water (2008-11-26) I order these coffee makers like crazy. People laugh at first when they hear that I keep one in my bathroom to get instant hot water to wash my face morning and evening. My bathroom is such a long distance from the water heater that I hate wasting water and spending so much time waiting for hot water. I love this little instant (and cheap) hot water dispenser. The instant water heater they sell to install in your bathroom is very expensive and takes up needed space under the counter. This little jewel is my answer and I just throw it away once it qui...

#Great for traveling (2008-11-18) This is just the right size to bring along with you on trips, or in an office. It takes up a really small amount of space. It s ideal for those of us who just want that one or maybe two cups of coffee. I love the size, all the other one cup makers took up twice as much space. This makes a great gift too for those friends and relatives who do alot of traveling.

#Exactly what I wanted (2008-11-16) There have been many times that I wanted a cup of coffee but I didn t want to make a whole pot just for myself. So I found this B&D Cup-At-A-Time Coffeemaker, but when I saw the price I thought it must not be very good. Wrong! After looking at what other people on amazon had said about this coffeemaker I decided to purchase 2 of them, one for my mom and one for me. We both already have the whole bean coffee and grinder so we could use it now for either our 12-pot coffeemakers or our One-cup coffermakers. And we didn t have to get the special ...

#This is a bad design (2008-12-01) If you plan to buy one of these Cuisinart grind & brew machines, please carefully note the complaints on cleaning. They are valid. My particular problem is the grinder sticking inside the unit, and it is major. I solved this somewhat by purchasing a second grinder unit so that hopefully one would always be clean, dry and ready to go. That system failed over the Thanksgiving weekend, when we were brewing pot after pot. Once again, the grinder stuck, requiring the use of vegetable oil and pliers. I m sure Cuisinart would not recommend this ...

#Leaks (2008-11-25) My daughter got this pot for a wedding present four years ago and I think it makes wonderful coffee and is worth the trouble to clean it. She has never had a problem with the pot and she does not do anything special to keep it clean. I got the plastic version myself to save money and it lasted a year or two and the plastic broke so I decided to get this one inspite of the bad reviews. I had it two months when it leaked on the counter -- clear water from under the pot (Cuisinart said a water pipe was leaking). I called Cuisinart and they said I had to send the...

#Nominated to the biggest POS award of the year (2008-11-22) List Price: $185. 00. Ha Ha. Funny. $185 for a bunch of plastic and stainless that heats up water? Oh yea, it also grinds, don t let me forget that $10 added value. OK. My second Cuisinart. The first lasted 3 years. This machine is $100. A $20 black MR COFFEE would be a better investment. This coffee maker is a pain in the rear to keep clean and unclogged on a daily basis. I m a simple guy. I want to make coffee in a hurry in the morning. I don t want to fuss about cleaning the inside of the grindi...

#Very WEAK Coffee (2008-11-19) I am really angry at myself for not listening to others before purchasing this coffee maker. I really wanted the Grind/Brew so that i wouldn t make such a mess every morning grinding and then dumping the coffee into my coffeepot. Instead i now have a crappy coffee maker that makes a mess and brews a super weak cup of coffee. If you like a strong cup of coffee, go elsewhere. This one only holds enough beans for about 8 cups!! It is pretty simple to use but it s easy to drop beans in places they don t belong! And ground coffee does seem to stic...

#replacement for previous model (2008-11-16) Excellent service from earlier model and when it started leaking chose to replace it with this model. Very pleased with performance and appearance
