Review of Mr. Coffee DWX23 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, Black

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After reading the only other review which was negative, I was worried about the coffee maker I'd just bought. However, it has worked perfectly every day for the last 3 weeks. It is remarkably inexpensive for a programmable maker. It smells so good to walk in the kitchen and hear the coffee finishing up each morning.I've never had a coffee make that did not require a little care to be sure the filter was not crooked but this one is actually easier than my last one which I gave my daughter.

Review of 12c Coffeemaker-Stainless Stee

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have never been one to spend a lot of money on coffeemakers in the past but I thought I would spend a little more this time and see if I could find a better quality one. I have not been disappointed. The FTXSS43 does a very good job of making a fine cup of coffee. The features I like best are the beep alert to let you know when the coffee is ready (which has a switch to turn it off if you don't want to hear it), the improved spout that doesn't drip when you pour a cup, the timer to start the coffeemaker automatically in the morning,the adjustable heat control for the warming plate, the LCD analog clock which puts out a pleasant glow and acts as a nightlight in the kitchen at night, the fact that the clock automatically turns into a timer to let you know how long the coffee has been made, and the most important, the good tasting coffee. The pot takes what I would call an average amount of time to brew and the stainless steel exterior is attractive and very easy to clean.

Review of Mr. Coffee VB13 12-Cup Switch Coffeemaker, Black

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We drink a lot of coffee in our home, actually at least three, sometimes more pots per day.We give a coffee maker, any coffee maker quite a work out.We also have water which has a very, very high mineral content.This causes problems with not only coffee makers, but water heaters and any other appliance that uses hot water.Now all that being said....

The coffee maker being reviewed here, the Mr. Coffee VB13 12-Cup Coffeemaker is what we refer to as our disposable maker.We go through one of these makers in about three or four months.There are two problems...the first being the hard water we use and the second being that this particular maker seems to have a very weak and fragile heating element.Between the convergence of these two factors they just do not last very long in our house.Of course neither do the more expensive makers; the more sophisticated ones...alas, their life is short.We clean this one with vinegar on a more than regular basis, keep it clean and do all the things we are suppose to do but to no avail.They eventually and inevitably either clog up or the heating element simply goes croakers.

This maker does have advantages though, the first being that it is extremely cheap.We pay no more than seventeen dollars at a local store for them.When you think about it, that is what about four cups of fancy coffee will cost you at a AstroBucks Coffee Shoppe.They, at first (the first couple of months) make a very nice cup of coffee and they make it extremely fast.They are simple; no whistle, bells, flashing lights, mini-screens telling you the date, time, year, phases of the moon, legal and illegal holidays, weather reports, your mother-in-laws birthday, and other useless information, and blessedly no timers that you are clueless as to how to use and set.No, just your basic on and off switch is all you have to contend with.It also has a feature that allows you to remove the container while a batch is brewing, pour your coffee, and replace it before it continues spewing out coffee. You can also make a fresh batch with little or no hassle and clean-up is almost nil.It should also be noted they these machines have nifty little water windows to prevent spillage, but as I slosh the stuff all over the place anyway, both water and coffee; making horrible messes, this is a moot point in my case. They will serve the average person of care quite well.

This is just what I need but alas, the quality is just not there.I suppose at this price you really should not expect all that much longevity but this aspect of this coffee maker forces me to give it only three stars.I suppose others might rate this higher due to its advantages, and others might rate it much lower due to its obvious lack of longevity and just as obvious poor workmanship, but I am going to split the difference here.I am not too fond of the star rating thing here anyway as it is way too subjective to meet my taste.

If you buy it, buy it for what it is...a cheap, simple coffee maker that you will probably not be able to pass down as a family heirloom.

Note:One of my many hobbies is collecting odd bits of metal, copper wire and such and selling it at the local salvage yard.As near as I can figure, between the copper wire in these things and the bits of metal, you can scrap one and receive about .75 cents, depending upon market fluctuations, and the glass container with its plastic handle is good for .25 cents at any garage sale...I have sold many of them.

Review of Sensio 90017 Bella Professional 12-Cup Coffeemaker

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)In a Nut Shell - Has12 cups capacity, 24 hour clock/timer, brew pause, programmable shut off, gold tone filter, heavy, and die-cast aluminum.
Comment - Even tho I have a pretty collection of coffee makers, I wanted to try 'something different', so I opted for Sensio's Bella Professional line.
READ the latest Update below.

* The Good -
1. Brews an Excellent pot of your favorite Java (kirkland's colombian supreme).
2. Brewing Time initially was Very Good compared to others, I have used before like the all-time favorite Krups line.
It's a Top Loader for both your Java and H2O and has the much sought after Radial Spray Head, which ensures an even coffee extraction. I strongly recommend using Filtered H2O
for all of your Brewing needs and using Reverse osmosis seems to be the best Option in "Hard-Waters" country, like here.
3. 1 year later, it's still working but the Tropics cause much deterioration and is taking it's toll.

* The Bad -
1. Expensive: Over 100 hundred Bucks + S/H Charges add up quickly.
2. Clock is very SMALL, totally worthless, as it does not have any Numerical Characters, like a regular clock, just 'subdued' lines, nice Blue glow though.
A much larger Round or rectangular 'clock & Coffee Function' window would have greatly improve it.
3. Using the Decanter to fill a Cup, results in Dripping coffee all over the counter, unless you Hold the decanter at a Perfect 20 to 25 degree Angle & Axis, which is difficult when it's Full.
This is mostly due to the way that the decanter's Flip-top is finished-cut at an angle. They should have looked at a mr coffee, Cuisinart or Krups.
4. The Pause n' Serve function is limited to 2 Quick cups only, otherwise, it will start to 'overflow' at the filter/basket, which can be a mess!
5. The Heating Decanter area gets grungy quickly from the spilled coffee and needs constant cleaning, as opposed to the Krups.
6. The Front Face Stainless has developed a 'smudged' appearance, not the Highly Polished finish that I expected, while this in itself does not affect the Function,
aesthetics are an important factor, for me.
7. It's sold and labeled as a 'Professional' coffeemaker, which it isn't and it's definitely NOT 'bella (beautiful) either!

* Update - June 2010 - I have downgraded this coffee maker to barely 1 Star. Here's why, the Decanter Warming plate has now degenerated to a Rusted, Crackled, Paint-less, Ugly Mess!
It also started to SLOW DOWN in it's percolating phase to the point where I have just replaced with a new mr coffee maker.
I expected more out of a 100+ dollar coffee maker.

Review of Automatic Coffee Maker 10-30 Cup

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this item based on the picture.The picture displays a Stainless Steel lid and see through glass reader as to whether or not the coffe is ready.What I got was an item that was a regalware but had a black lid and no glass reader.This is false advertising! The picture of what I selected and paid almost 75.00 for including shipping and handling was no where near the same quality of what was received.Then they will only pay for returns if they made the error.Next Day Gourmet has made a serious error in the advertisement of this product but takes no responsibility for paying on the return.This is not a company I would buy from again and find it very disappointing for all the effort I have had to go through due to this companies poor policies.
