Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)We had this coffee maker for about 9 months, then it just stopped working halfway through a brew cycle. I could not find any other reviews for it online, so I'm not sure if this is typical or not.
What I liked about it: the thermal carafe kept the coffee hot for quite awhile as long as you take it off of the machine right after brewing so that the brew-through holes close up. It is easy to fill since the water resevoir is removable. I also like the look of it. It seems fairly sturdy, and it was very easy to pour (no spilling issues as I have read about other machines).
What I didn't like: The brew-through lid has small holes that the coffee, soap, and water get into and it is very hard to get out. You have to shake it very hard to get the liquid out, and I felt like I needed to rinse it repeatedly to be sure to get any residual soap out. The pot itself has a very small opening so you have to use a bottle brush. It also has a lip that makes it hard to fully empty.
I'm not sure if we will get another of the same or try something else. It seems like alot of the thermal pots have similar cleaning issues.

Balck & Decker's 10 cup Stainless Steel Thermal Coffee Maker has that smooth sleak look that become very popular in homes across the country. The advantage of Thermal Coffee Makers is that you do not have to re-heat your coffee or leave your coffee over a heating element which causes the flavor to be comprimised. Simply brew and trust that each cup will have the same great flavor every cup.
