Absolutely love this one with clean reminder…
I’ve been through a lot of coffee makers, from the most expensive to the cheapest. I can honestly say that this Black and Decker model is by far the best. It’s not expensive, yet the coffee is very hot, the delay brew feature works perfectly, and the coffee is ready when I get up.I’ve seen the comments that the “CL” can’t be removed after cleaning it. The instructions are very clear in the instruction booklet. I’ve cleaned ours many times, and after following instructions, the “CL” is gone. It clearly states after combining 6 cups WHITE VINEGAR and 4 cups cold water is poured into reservoir to PRESS AND HOLD the ON/OFF BUTTON for 4 SECONDS, ON/OFF button LED illuminates (no blinking), “CLEAN” scrolls through the display continuously and the AUTO CLEAN cycle begins. Part of the solution brew through and holds the rest for 30 minutes, then will begin brewing the rest. Whole process takes about 45-60. When it’s finished with “AUTO CLEAN” cycle, it shuts off automatically. Immediately Brew a pot of fresh water through it again to clear out any residue from vinegar. Now it’s ready to brew coffee again.It’s just a matter of following the included instructions.

A great coffemaker for the money
My old coffee maker died after about 30 years. I researched Mr Coffee and the reviews said quality had gone downhill. So I looked at this Black and Decker unit instead.I have used this at least 50 times since I bought it so I would say that I am pretty familiar with it. Hereâs my review:- itâs fine- it brews coffee quickly- it has an automatic timer and turns off if you forget and leave it on the burner- it is kind of loud, but thatâs OK- when you first start using it, the basket is a bit quirky, and a couple of times I did it wrong where the coffee didnât drain properly and I got grounds in the drink. But after a while you learn to just double check it after you put the filter paper and coffee in and you can kind of feel a âclickâ when you align it properly and shut the top. But it is possible to put the basket in the wrong way I know it because I did it a couple times- it has the âsneak a cupâ function, meaning you can get a cup while it is still brewing. Thatâs cool, I use it a lot. However, a minor problem is that one drop always spills when you do it (not a lot, just one drop) because when you take the carafe off from under the basket and the connection is lost it just always drops one drop that sizzles on the burner. Not a giant deal, just a minor thing that bugs me every day a little bitSo it is definitely worth the money, and works fine. Coffee tastes good, it is fast, and it has automatic shut off. Works great for me. And it is very cheap for what it does. If it dies in a couple years (which I expect), I will just go on the forums again and find another one that is best rated at the time (and cheap) or just re buy this one.

Works just as advertised.
I love my Black and Decker coffee maker. It is easy to setup and program. You can even set it to make your coffee stronger, which is my favorite part of this machine. It has the delay drip so that you can sneak a cup before it is finished brewing as well. It’s also very easy to disassemble for cleaning. I would definitely recommend this one.

The best part of waking up..
Perfect simple coffee pot. Easy to use and timely brew. Not the highest quality but gets the job done and reasonable cost.

Works well
This is a pretty coffee maker and it brews coffee well!! Itâs a little slow when brewing but that adds to the flavor. Sometimes a coffee pot will brew to fast and it doesnât taste good. This is well worth the money. That too is great. Itâs not super expensive. You will like it. The lid isnât loose itâs holding up well . Iâm one who doesnât have a dishwasher I donât like them. Itâs not louder than any other coffee pot. The material is ok. Itâs a good buy

Great cup of java that stays hot.
Tried a more expensive and fancier brand that turned out to be more complicated than was needed to make a cup of coffee. This is old school whereby you simply flip up the lid and add your water and coffee grounds and off you go. Makes a good cup of coffee and stays hot on the warming surface. Highly recommend.

Fresh Pots!
I’ve gotten to that point in my life where I am excited about kitchen appliances…I have either hot my peak or am starting my rapid decent.This coffee pot is awesome. Timer function is great, apparently having the smell of coffee and caffeine full my house at 5 am does better than a klaxon from my phone. The filter basket is great, lines up perfect and cleaning is simple. This whole vortex drip system they have is pretty cool, no more dry ground in the filter. The lid and reservoir seems solid. My only complaint is the glass seems a little thin and at 5 am I am less than coordinated so I hope I don’t hit it on the microwave and break it.

Lasted just 3 months!
Ever since I got this machine itâs been blinking âcleanâ. Yesterday I ran 3 cycles to clean it with vinegar and water then just water twice. Today when I woke up to make coffee, it was malfunctioning and not allowing me to brew the coffee, instead it would just flash clean over and over. Iâve only had this coffee maker since 9/18/24, Iâve never had a product do so little in such a short amount of time complete waste of money and obviously itâs now past the day of return. Donât buy!!

I had ordered this coffee maker with Tim Hortons coffee and tried them. I was able to get to 90% range of Timms. Great taste and save me from trips. My advice is to also buy reusable filter with it. Great value for money
