Bella - Classics 12-Cup Coffee Maker - Chrome/Black

This is my first experience purchasing a Bella brand coffee maker and I have to say that I am very impressed. First of all, this model looks very elegant, with nice stainless steel incorporated into the design. It looks very much like much more expensive brands and, in my opinion, the best looking model at this price point. It is simple with few buttons which is great for me in that all I want to do is press a button and make coffee. I don't need complex settings of questionable value. It does allow setting for a later time, though I have not yet used this feature. This coffee maker is lighter than the coffee maker I replaced, which I like. It comes with a reusable coffee ground basket. In my photo you will see a paper coffee filter used. This is just my preference. I use paper filters because I like to have an easy way to throw away used grounds, but you don't need to use them. So in short, if you wants a truly awesome looking coffee maker (stainless steel look on black), and functions well consider this one. At the time I purchased, I found it much cheaper in store than online. I have included pictures in my review of the coffee maker in action!

Arrived intact. Instructions easy to read. Brews coffee really fast. I will never go back to MrCoffee. At this price it's somewhere between a bargain and a steal.

Coffee brews fast. Way better than Mr.Coffee. Delivery was on time. Instructions were easy to read. No filters necessary but have been using #4 cone filters w/o incident.

Unable to use timer on coffee pot.Tried several times to no avail.

I was in the market for a good but basic coffee maker Just one without having to navigate multiple menus, one that lets me choose my coffee or blend, one that lets me choose the quantity of coffee and water I want to use, etc. In other words, one that lets me make the decisions, not it. This coffee maker fits the bill. It has a bold setting which I like. It makes excellent, rich, deep, dark coffee for me (I tend to like the very dark blends). As I said excellent coffee, easy to make. And very reasonably priced, too. If you don't want the coffe maker to make the decisions for you, choose this one.

This is a great coffee maker. Great price at Best Buy plus very easy to program. It has reusable filter, which is very environmental friendly.

I couldn't be happier with this product, it's easy to use and love the permanent filter.

Brews fast and has a reusable coffee filter so I dont have to buy the paper ones anymore. Has a bold setting that I really like. The price was really great too. Looking forward to drinking many cups from this brewer.
