Black & Decker DDCM200 Dual Personal Coffeemaker, Black and Stainless Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The B&D model DDCM200 is a great product for two people. It's advantage is in allowing two different cups to be brewed - different flavors, strengths, caffinated/decaffinated, or even tea.
Every cup comes out consistent once you learn how much coffee to put into basket for the amount of water you put in. We have learned this ratio for varying amounts of water so if we feel like a full or half mug we can get what we desire - consistently, and fast.
A knob on the top turned to the left diverts water to just the left side for one cup, or when turned to the right yields two cups. When brewing two, the left cup always gets a bit more water than the right - the right mug's coffee level is about 3/8ths of an inch lower than the left mug.
You can use the supplied baskets and forgo filters, but I like to use the #1 paper filters inside the baskets as cleanup is even easier than just the basket - the choice is yours.
As for noise, it does make some but I in no way find it offensive. Unlike some coffee makers that seem to linger, when the brew cycle finishes the water stops entering the basket almost immediately. I like this as when it's done, it's done.
There are no hot plates in this maker - nothing to burn any errant drippings, no safety issues. In fact if after brewing you leave the machine on, it will turn itself off. The coffee is meant to brew directly into your mug. I generally brew into an old, large, Dunkin Donuts (made by THERMO) mug without it's lid. This mug is better insulated and keeps my coffee warm enough for me for a long time. I do NOT like coffee too hot to drink. If a coffee shop wants me to use a cup insulator sleeve to keep from burning my hand, then the coffee is way too hot for me. I mention this as the B&D DDCM200 makes a hot cup of coffee but if you are expecting it to be so hot you'd need a sleeve, it won't be.
This machine is fast. It is faster than many of my Mr. Coffee machines and only the single cup machine I use at work is faster.
Would I buy it again? YES, YES, YES! I'm here at Amazon looking for a second one for use at my girlfriend's house. She got me mine a year ago (been working great for a year) and likes it so much she now wants one. When she moves in here next year, we will have two so I'll have a backup. I don't see this model # on the B&D website so I'll presume it is no longer made. Another reason I want to get a second unit ... that's how much I enjoy the one I have!
I recommend this to individuals who like different cups of coffee - gone will be the waiting between first and second pots, or arguing over which coffee do you both drink, or its strength. What a terrific peace keeper!!

DeLonghi 12-Cup Digital Drip Coffeemaker - DC36TB Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I wrote a review of our new Cuisinart DCC-1200W under that product. In that review, I mentioned that we also bought a DeLonghi for our RV about the same time. This is the model DeLonghi we bought at the local Target.
This coffee maker, quite simply, is better designed and made a better cup of coffee than the Cuisinart right out of the box. The Cuisinart here on Amazon is about twice the price of the DeLonghi.
If you're in the market for a new coffee pot and you read all the glowing reviews of the Cuisinart here on Amazon, I urge you to consider this pot instead.

Krups KT4065 Precision Stainless Steel Precision Thermal Coffee Maker 10-c. Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)...but this may be the worst coffee maker ever designed. I've cleaned up my last overflow and am heading out to replace it. Yes, it looks great, and when it works, it makes good coffee. I was even willing to put up with the difficult water reservoir and the hard-to-read water gauge, but there is a problem with the design of the small flaps in the lid and the coffee ends up everywhere but in the pot. And today the small plastic tab that makes it possible to open the lid broke off. Could anything more go wrong with this design?

KitchenAid JavaStudio 14-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This coffee maker worked & looked great the 1st few months. Several times we got up to coffee all over the counter. After 1 year the error code came up that you had to call Kichenaid (Whirlpool). They quickly sent another - it worked for about 3 days, the same error code came up & they quickly sent another. It worked for about 2 months, spilled twice so quit using the programmer - Whirlpool actually called us to see how things were going. Told them about the spills and they sent a new lid for the pot that had been designed. It did work better but again the error code came up. Called them again & they sent yet another replacement. Same problems with the coffee all over the counter & the newer lid. Gave up, dumped it and bought a really nice 14 cup Cuisinart - about 1 year now & it's working fine with no spills. I will say Kitchenaid/Whirlpool customer service agents were extremely nice & helpful.

With its sleek contemporary styling and stainless-steel accents, this 14-cup coffeemaker not only looks good on the kitchen counter, but it also makes it easy to brew a rich, flavorful pot of coffee. The unit's electronic control regulates the powerful 1100-watt heat pump, while its extra-wide JavaSpa showerhead soaks the filter basket evenly with hot water to ensure uniform extraction and enhanced flavor. Thoughtfully designed, the appliance also provides a user-friendly control panel with a digital display, a 1- to 4-cup brew cycle for smaller batches, and a programmable clock/timer that allows for brewing "wake-up" coffee. A dishwasher-safe glass carafe comes included, complete with a comfortable stay-cool handle, measuring marks up the side, and a drip-free pour spout. For sneaking a quick cup of coffee midbrew, simply remove the carafe from the machine to pause the flow of coffee, then replace the carafe to continue the brewing process--a nice feature, particularly for those in a hurry for that first sip. Other highlights include a split lid for easy access to the brew basket and water reservoir, a Clean Touch control pad, an end-of-brewing audible tone, stylish wrap-around housing that minimizes heat loss from the carafe, two-hour automatic shut-off for safety and peace of mind, and convenient cord storage to help keep countertops looking tidy. Accessories include a gold-tone permanent coffee filter (no need for paper filters), 10 unbleached paper filters (for the option to use paper filters), a coffee scoop, and an ion-exchange water filter to reduce chlorine and other contaminants from the water, helping to ensure a delicious cup of coffee. Available in a variety of colors, the coffeemaker measures 11-1/2 by 8-1/4 by 13-3/4 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Capresso 440.05 MT-500 10-Cup Electronic Coffeemaker with Thermal Carafe Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)after months of dealing with burnt coffee from my trusty krups coffeemaker...i decided that there just HAD to be a better way. i launched an exhaustive search for what would be the best (you know this is always a compromise, anyways) machine for the job. i knew i wanted a thermal carafe...and wasn't as concerned with the price as i was concerned with the quality and durability.
i read many reviews here on amazon...including reviews for this machine. after seeing a bunch of negative reviews (based on how difficult to operate, clean, or lack of really HOT coffee from this machine) i decided to look further, instead of just jumping in.
of course...as i searched the web, i finally realized that i was just going to have to try the machine...worst that could happen was that i could experience all the problems that some others had...and i'd have to return it.
expecting problems (i saw an awful lot of buyer whining about operation difficulty (it isn't a problem) temperature of coffee (although quoted as 170 degrees in the manual it generally stays in the carafe at 160 degrees) and all assortment of complaints about adding water to the reservoir (a no brainer), assembly/cleaning issues (also very simple), pause and serve issues (never had a problem)...
i had NO problems whatsoever with this unit. coffee tasted good from the first cup...and still tastes good (i've had the unit for over two months now)
as a matter of fact...the coffee is still hot and drinkable after 3 hours (although the manual does recommend that you dispose of the coffee after 2 hours)
so all in all? a VERY satisfied customer...i rated it at 4 stars because it IS expensive...and for the anal-retentive types out there...yes the coffee rarely exceeds 165 degrees...
but...if you are sitting on the fence (like i was) jump in! you won't be disappointed!

To achieve a spectacular cup of coffee there are essential steps that need to be taken. The water must be free of chlorine taste (hence the charcoal filter), the machine must be able to brew larger or smaller amounts successfully (this one "knows" to disperse hot water more slowly when the coffee ground amount is less). The coffee must be very hot (right around 192 Degrees F, like the brew from the MT500), and kept fresh, as in a double walled stainless steel carafe with a one way valve that keeps flavor and aroma in the coffee. Now it doesn't hurt if the machine itself is gorgeous either, or that it can output 10 cups of coffee in 8 minutes. Oh and one more thing: this is the only coffee maker in its class that has a stainless steel boiler so your coffee doesn't ever come in contact with aluminum. Normally this type of construction, and a 1200 watt heating element are found only on commercial grade appliances.

Farberware FCM12SS 12-Cup Coffeemaker, Stainless/Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Like everyone else, I found the absurdly tiny opening for the water is a royal pain, & certainly drags the rating for this way down. After setting it up, impressed with the features, & price, I couldn't even see where the water should go, and looked to the instructions, which weren't much help. I finally realized, that despite a huge lid, which is only for the filter, the opening for filling was a tiny, narrow slit towards the rear of the unit. This is way too small, and not only must you be a great aim, but it's quite awkward maneuvering the carafe to enable it to fully empty!
I truly cannot believe that someone, or ones, were paid to "design" this model! What were they thinking???
Oh, well, this is the third coffeemaker I've bought recently, the first two were even even worse, so I'm still undecided if I'll return this, or just live with having to be ultra-precise when filling it.....

Capresso 454 CoffeeTEAM-S Coffee Maker/Burr Grinder Combination Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've had this model coffemaker at work for a couple of years, and so I placed it on my registry and got it as a wedding gift. As far as grind and brew goes, this one is mostly good, but falls short in a few respects.
The good:
o- burr grinder, much better grind than a blade
o- programmable - I just set it in the evening and it's good to go when I get out of the shower
o- no major cleaning necessary every time you use it
o- I don't see anything wrong with the plastic at all. Looks fine to me.
o- GoldTone filter - a very fine mesh to capture most coffe grounds, but does not absorbe any of the oils from the coffee the way paper filters do, giving you a fuller flavor, albeit at a price of a slightly silty cup.
The bad:
o - the temperature isn't quite up to snuff - a little too cold. If you pour it into a cup you pulled out of the cupboard, and add a splash of half and half or milk from the fridge, then pour in the coffee, it's just above warm. Not hot enough. Which also contributes to the brew not being quite as good as the beans' potential. Sad.
Update - being the engineer at heart that I am, I went and tested the brew temperature, just to be sure. I used two different kitchen digital thermometers, both in the basket and in the carafe. For most of the bewing time the temp stays at about 165F, climbing up to almost 175F towards the end of the brew. That is well short of the 200F +- 5F (92C-94C). No wonder then. I was always puzzled at how I would find great coffee at a shop, buy the beans, bring them home and only get a mediocre brew. Now I know. Too cold.
o - there is a conduit between the burr grinder and the basket. As you grind beans, the grounds fill up the conduit and push the grounds that were there already out to the basket. It's okay if you use it at the office and brew 10 cups at a time, a few times a day (full brew takes about 10 minutes, BTW). Not good for home use where you bew 2-4 cups a day: you are constantly using day-old grounds. Not good. Next time this thing breaks, I'm replacing it with a standalone burr grinder which dumps beans right out, and a thermal carafe coffemaker like Braun, which brings me to the next point:
o- No thermal carafe! What's up with that! For a high price like that, I'd have at least expected a thermal carafe. Alas, no such luck.
o- Reliability. At the office we've had to replace it about once a year, which isn't bad considering how heavily we used it - multiple 10-cup brews every day. My home version quit (motor burned out, I think) after just over a year of use. Luckily, the department store exchanged it, a'cause it was off the wedding registry and they are extra nice in those cases. Next time this thing dies, I'm getting two separate pieces - maker and grinder, both can be had for under half of the cost of these.
o - if you do get it, make sure to point the spout of the carafe to the right, away from the basket, as the steam can make the mechanism and beans sticky.
o- Brew time is too long. A full 10 cups take 10 minutes. Ideally a brew should not take more than 6 minutes; after that time you start to extract bitter unpleasant flavors from the beans. So if you want to make more coffee, then make 6 cups, pour into a thermal container and brew the other 4.
Better yet, don't buy this coffemaker.
Update: Capresso has come out with a new model, Capresso 455.05 CoffeeTEAM which does come with a thermal carafe. I don't know what the brew temp is - I suspect still too cold; no way to tell. It's an extra hundred bucks. I'm going to see if I can return mine and buy a better one.

The only combination machine with a Conical Burr Grinder!Just pour in the beans, program the time and amount of coffee to be ground¿and CoffeeTEAM-S does the rest!Only CoffeeTEAM lets you program the amount of coffee you want to grind: choose from 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10 cups and select mild, regular or strong.You can even program two completely different settings, one for manual operation and one for automatic operation.This way you always enjoy exactly the same coffee taste.The CoffeeTEAM uses solid steel conical burrs.The slow grinding of the burrs imparts minimal heat, preserving more aroma than blade grinding.It also allows for a finer and more uniform grind than combination machines with a blade grinder. Grinding and brewing are separated, keeping moisture away from the grinder.The CoffeeTEAM grinds the programmed amount of beans directly into the filter.Then the filter automatically swings back and the brewing process begins.

KITCHENAID coffee maker 10 cup DIGITAL kcm-515 ST-STEEL Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am a coffee snob and have been looking for a replacement for my Cusinart grind and brew (which sucked!) which we got as a wedding present. I searched and read tons of reviews of all the machines available and wanted to spend around $100 for a quality machine. I bought this coffee maker from Bed Bath & Beyond using their 20% of coupons to meet my budget.
I just tried out the maker for the first time this morning and absolutely love the look, quality taste and long life of the hot brew!!!
Reasons I chose this machine over others were:
1. Thermos Carafe, which keeps the coffee hot w/out scorching the coffee taste.
- The opening of the Carafe was large enough to get your hand in there for easy cleaning.
- The easy pour carafe which doesn't require you to push any button or twist the top to pour yourself a cupa
- Coffee stayed hot even after 2 hours after brewing and tasted freshly brewed!!!
2. The grounds basket allows the use of the gold filter or paper. It is flat bottom basket which brews the grounds more evenly and results in better tasting coffee. There is a shower water dispenser which aid in the even water distribution.
3. The timer for programming morning coffee before work
- There is a beeper which tells you when the brewing cycle is complete (this prevents against dribbling messes on the machine base when removing the carafe to pour a cup. The beeper is also by signal when getting ready in the mornings that there is 15 minutes before I have to hit the road!!
- There is a delayed drip to pour a cup if your in a rush for your fix ;o)
- There is an indicator which shows how much time has laps since the last brew
4. Easy to clean!!
- The Cusinart Grind'n Brew was a pain in the arse to clean between brews cause the grinder will get moist during the brewing process and leave ground sludge in the grinder section!
- The grounds basket in top shelf dish washer safe but the carafe must be hand washed which is no big deal because of the design of the lid and opening size is big enough to stick your sponge and hand inside.
- Control buttons are flat and easy to wipe clean
5. It looks sleek and classy!!! Looks great on the countertop!!!
- The design fits great under cabinets and the front water pour section allowed you to fill the reservoir easily w/out having to move the machine around to reach it.A few Tips for Thermal Carafe Users:
- Preheat your thermal carafe to extend heat retention by filling with piping hot water from the sink for a few minutes before starting the brew process! People complain about these machines not keeping their coffee hot enough or for as long as claimed but it because people don't follow directions!!!
- (to the previous reviewer) heat your cup of milk in the microwave for 30-40 second before pouring a cup of coffee to maximize the temp... its not rocket science to know that adding cold liquid to hot liquid will cool the over all temp ESPECIALY if you tend to had a lot of milk like I do!!!

West Bend 57040 4 Cup Electric French Press, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have spent hundreds of dollars on coffee makers and have been very snobbish in thinking I could not get an American made one because it wouldn't get the water hot enough. I also love the coffee from a French press. Because I wanted to have the automatic capabilities with the French press, my options were few with the only other one available getting rather poor reviews. Reluctantly (and because I had a $100 gift certificate), I tried the West Bend for $39.99. IT IS FABULOUS. The water is VERY hot and so it makes a fabulous cup of coffee.

Melitta MEMB1 Mill & Brew Coffeemaker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I researched a grind and brew coffee maker for 3 months before purchasing this one. I'm thrilled with it. I used to work at prominent kitchenware store and didn't hear good customer reviews about the Cusineart Grind and Brew and the Capresso.... The Melitta makes a great cup of coffee, it's easy to use, grinds the beans quickly and you get your choice of course to super fine. The only programing is easy as is the clean up...no hassle which was important to me. The only thing I have noticed is that you need to use more scoops of beans than specified. (I make 4 cups each morning and use about 3 scoops of beans for strong coffee)...

Capresso MT500 10 Cup Electronic Coffeemaker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Having been sorely disappointed with the Cuisinart Grind & Brew, I moved on to the Capresso MT500. I have not been disappointed.
Aside from being a superior coffee maker, the MT500 is a sleek, elegant appliance that looks great on any kitchen counter.
The keypad is simple and easy to use, and includes a digital clock for 24-hour programmability (a key must-have for me). The unit has a 3-5 cup small batch setting for fast and efficient brewing of smaller quantities (another must-have for me).
Perhaps most importantly, the unit brews very satisfactorily hot coffee, unlike the Grind & Brew, which I found luke warm (less than 170F). The thermal carafe does an excellent job of keeping unused coffee hot, particularly when you pre-heat it with hot water.
My only criticism would be that fill-level is inconveniently positioned and somewhat hard to read.
All in all, I'm very pleased with every aspect of the MT500.

DeLonghi DC514T 14-Cup Programmable Drip Coffeemaker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've had my DeLonghi Esclusivo coffeemaker for exactly 3 months. It brewed the best tasting coffee I've ever had. It was my favorite coffee maker by far for the following reasons: Coffee is delicious -slow brewing permits a more robust coffee. Small footprint on my counter. Stylish design. VERY easy to program and use. Large opening through which to pour water. Charcoal filter to purify water. Automatic shut off. Caraffe has large opening for easy cleaning. NON-DRIP POURING!! I was in heaven with this coffeemaker and knew I'd found the perfect one. (I've had many in my lifetime.)
Unfortunately, two days ago, the plastic surrounding the hot plate began to melt. The vendor from whom I purchased it has already refunded my money and has asked me to return it. I will NOT purchase another one for fear of fire hazard. This coffeemaker would have received 10 stars from me had it not begun to melt itself to death. For this reason, I'm heartsick.....it WAS the perfect coffeemaker.

Brew up to 14 cups (70 ounces) of great-tasting coffee with this easy-to-use drip coffeemaker. The unit's showerhead design helps extract coffee's full natural flavor by allowing water to completely saturate all coffee grounds, while its aroma button activates a unique brewing process that enhances the flavor and aroma of coffee. To achieve this full-bodied flavor, the coffeemaker advances through several continuous cycles that release water into the filter basket in 30-second intervals. This special time-released process saturates grounds a little at a time to extract the best flavor and aroma from coffee. The coffeemaker also provides a pause-and-serve function, for pouring a cup midbrew, and a 24-hour programmable timer with two-hour automatic shut-off. Setting the timer allows for waking up to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee or for having coffee ready to serve with dessert. The include glass carafe offers measurement markings, a generous stay-cool handle, and a drip-free spout for graceful serving. Other highlights include simple push-button controls, a blue backlit display, a permanent gold-tone filter, advanced water filtration, and a convenient water-level indicator, as well as a non-stick warming plate, a freshness indicator, and cord storage to help keep countertops tidy. A measuring spoon comes included. The coffeemaker measures approximately 8-1/2 by 7-1/5 by 13-1/2 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

DeLonghi DCM485 10-Cup Thermal Carafe and Coffeemaker, Brushed Stainless Steel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Are you tired of parts made of plastic and not real metal? This coffee maker is made of genuine brushed stainless. If the part on this machine looks like metal, it is metal. The overall look and style is very European, even the buttons and display are good quality and simple to use and understand. The carafe is stainless inside and out, and keeps the coffee hot for at least 4 hours. The water resevoir lifts out for easily filling from the tap, so you don't have to fill the carafe first and pour it into the machine. The resavoir has graduated markings. Also, the filter holder comes out for easy cleaning. The only quirk I found is that, as with other themal carafes, you have to pour slowly to keep from dripping. It also helps to read the manual that explains how far to unscrew the top before pouring to avoid drips.

Black & Decker DCM2500B SmartBrew Coffeemaker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Because we're serious about our coffee, we sold our old $100+ Cuisinart coffeemaker to be replaced with this much better designed and much easier to use coffee maker.
A motel room we stayed at had this model coffee maker. We used it twice a day for 10 days. The coffee was delicious and we found no minuses at all, so I bought one. We've been using it daily now for about three months.
The carafe is made of heavy duty glass and doesn't drip at all. The hole to pour water into is large and easy to get to. There are convenient and accurate water level windows on both sides of the unit. The controls are convenient, easy to understand, and easy to use. The basket is easily removed for cleaning, easy to position, and uses standard flat bottomed filters. The time and function displays are large and bright. All of these are comparative problem areas in the Cuisinart.
Programming works perfectly and is so simple to use we didn't need the manual. To set the time of day press the "Hours" button until it reaches the current hour and then the "Minutes" button. To set the "Auto on" time, press the "Program" button, and then set the start time the same way. Press the "Program" button again to go back to time of day. For auto start, press the "Auto on" button, which lights up. That's it.
In addition, the water enters the drip chamber in a shower rather than a stream, resulting in consistently smooth and uniform tasting coffee. I can't comment on the warming plate because we put what we don't drink immediately into a Thermos for all day use. The warming plate shuts itself off after two hours if you forget.
The negative reviews are a puzzle to me. We found none of the problems mentioned.
This is an addendum in mid Nov, 2007. The coffeemaker still makes perfect coffee and everything works like new. The only negative I'd add is that the warming plate is quite rusty, probably because I put a pot of tap water on it at night to have chlorine free water in the morning. Often the pot is damp. When we need to replace this coffeemaker, I'll paint the new warming plate with bar-b-cue paint before the first use, for rust protection.
This is an update, dated 11/20/07. The coffeemaker still works perfectly and still looks good. I sanded the rust off of the base plate, painted it with bar-b-cue paint, and as expected there is no more rust problem. I don't think the rust would occur for most people. I caused it by putting a wet pot on the plate overnight seven days a week.

Copco 4- to 8-Cup Polished Stainless Steel Stovetop Percolator Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great little coffee percolator, especially for the inexpensive price. For one person it makes more than I need, since the full "8 cups" comes out to about 4 normal mugs full.
I used the original plastic top for the first use, and it didn't seem to get too hot at all. Some mentioned the top melting in other reviews. Once the pot reaches a boil turn the heat down to medium, since it will still percolate there's no reason to boil on a red hot "high" burner (which may have caused the melting they mentioned).
Just in case I also purchased the replacement glass top (B0000CFM6K) advertised with the percolator here. It attached nice and tight, and works great too. I'm sure the inexpensive glass replacement top will last as long as the coffee pot.
Another great thing I noticed was that when I wet the basket, as recommended, before loading the coffee grinds no grinds ended up in the coffee at all. I thought there would be, but no grinds in any cups of coffee after a half dozen uses now. It's a great little percolator.
(I also added some photos to add to the stock image above so you can see the size of the pot, and a comparison of the stock plastic and replacement glass tops)

Hamilton Beach 40616 Stainless-Steel 12-Cup Electric Percolator Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Before I purchased this coffee pot about a year ago, I read reviews by others who said 'good coffee but lasted only a few months.' I thought to myself...'oh, those people must have been the unlucky few who got bad units...or they emersed the pot and ruined it.' I should have listened to their 'don't buy' pleas, and hope others will listen to my message of warning.
I loved this coffee pot. Rich, strong, hot coffee, and great classic looks. My only complaint was that compared to other percolators I've used, this one is noisy. It makes a loud popping sound while brewing. I never emersed the unit, and was always very careful to avoid letting any water get near the base of the unit when washing it.
I bought this pot a year ago, and used it about twice a MONTH. Yesterday morning, I attempted to make coffee but got only the same 'beige water' that others have reported. Tried again today thinking maybe it was just a fluke, and got a second pot of luke warm 'beige water.'
I suspect that others who posted initially positive feedback about this pot have had the same experience, but just haven't returned to update their reviews. In any case, I would strongly caution against the purchase of this pot. It's just not durable.

Housed in heavyweight stainless steel with an attractive chrome mirror finish, this quick-brewing electric percolator makes 12 cups of coffee with super-fast, cup-a-minute speed. When brewing is complete, it automatically switches to a "keep warm" temperature to ensure each cup is as warm as the first. Great for entertaining, the percolator has a ready-to-serve light that indicates when coffee is ready to enjoy, and its detachable cord provides the ability to serve fresh perked coffee right at the table without any hassle. Other useful features include a drip-free spout, an easy-grip knob on the unit's lid, a stay-cool handle, and a stainless-steel permanent filter basket that minimizes grounds in brewed coffee. The unit combines present-day technology with the retro look of a '50s kitchen for creating a perfect compliment to any kitchen decor. The percolator, which should be washed by hand, measures 5-1/2 by 5-1/2 by 12-3/4 inches.

Remanufactured Breville XXBKC600XL Gourmet Single-Cup Coffeemaker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased the remanufactured breville k-cup coffee maker. I was skeptical in the beginning after reading some of the reviews. I received my machine in two days, the packaging was just a regular box very well packed from amazon. The machine looks like brand new and works just fine. It is less than half the price a new machine and it came with all the accessories. I also own a breville 1000 watt juicer which also has no issues. Breville makes good products, much better than the average plastic chinese made appliances. They are well thought and engineered, almost professional grade, fairly priced and made to last. Don't be afraid to purchase remanufactured Breville products, they aret as good as new. I understand that sometimes quality repair or control may not be the best, but for me so far so good. Also, I'd like to add that our office machine is a Keurig, it's the high end model. Compared to the Breville, i must say that Breville is by far superior. Coffee making quality is the same, features are the same with Breville being more user friendly but on the looks department Breville is the winner. Made in stainless steel with minimal use of plastic makes the machine heavy, beautiful and gives a sense of quality. By the way, the same type and brand K-cups were used to compare the machines.
