Customer Ratings & Reviews

Seems to be a good coffee maker. Easy to use. I don't program it, I even unplug it when not in use. I set it up to brew with coffee and water, leave it unplugged and in the morning plug it in and turn it on. When done brewing , unplug it. Works great and I eliminate any electric mishaps. I do this with almost all my small appliances. Only problem, the basket is hard to remove because the hole into which the pin on the basket goes, it to small. Others have stated this. Maybe a little veg oil or a another suggested, drill out the hole, just a little. I can be very annoying, but seems an easy fix, hence the 4 stars.

This is a nice coffee maker. It is very easy to use and the timer and ability to pour a cup when it is still brewing is very convenient. The one problem I have with it is you can not remove the filter holder from the machine. It makes a big mess when you have to remove the filter and wet coffee grounds. I could remove the holder from the machine I had before and take the whole mess straight to the trash and not dribble water everywhere. It was obviously not designed by some one that has to use it.

Replaced my 9 year old 12 cup Mr Coffee non-programmable due to a half price sale at BestBuy. The swing out coffee filter holder is easy to access, most models load from the top now a days. This basket locks in place, my past model opened by accident more then once. This filter holder needs a larger top hole to remove it quicker. I enlarged mine as another reviewer suggested, and corrected that design mistake before enjoying my first cup. That cup, with added cold milk and sugar was too hot to drink right away. The clock is needed for timer usage but a joke otherwise, too small and not lite as reported by others. Is 900 watts so 2 real size coffee cups, 6 per water gage, takes 6 minutes. My old Mr Coffee was 1100 watts, had thicker plastic, and ran quicker. Ordered Friday, home delivered Tuesday, thanks UPS ! I would suggest buying this over the one switch, non programmable model. I might use that timer some day. And the one button model has a top load coffee filter basket. KCinLA

Nice basic coffee maker, has a timer and is working great. We needed something to have in our RV and it works exactly for what we need it for, brewing a fantastic cup of coffee.

Makes great coffee without much hassle. Removable basket is super, since it cleans up quickly. Timer was easy to set up. The shutoff valve is great, so you can get a quick cup before brewing is complete. Easy to fill water canister. What is really great is the 2 hour shutoff if you leave the coffee pot on the burner. This keeps the coffee hot enough and shuts it off if you forget. Some people have complained about the glass pot that it drips, but if you open the lid or pour slower then dripping is not a problem.

This was a gift for my daughter. She loves it. Makes great coffee, convenient, easy to use and she doesn't have to stop for coffee in the mornings.

Good quality, programmable, nice looking, good price. Cons: The basket has to be removed to dump the used grounds unless you can lift everything out without a mess, which is hard for me. It will also pinch your finger where the lid meets the handle, so be careful!

For the cost, I think that this is a great coffeemaker. It is programable if you like that feature. I think that the design is great for filling the water supply. It automatically moves the drip nozzle back into postion when you close the lid. It brews coffee and the warming plate will keep it hot if you want or you can choose to shut it off immediately. I have one that I have been using for a couple of years and just bought this one for a spare or a gift in the future.

Excellent coffee pot for the price, easy to use, easy to clean, coffee is good.

Excellent packaging, and assembly was a snap, no directions needed. Performed exactly as advertised. Plug it in, turn it on and PRESTO, perfect coffee every time. Easy to clean, and replacement filters are available everywhere fine coffee filters are sold. I am hoping it will break, because I am sure that I will receive gourmet coffee quality service and product support.

This is a good coffee maker for the price. It makes coffee quickly and it tastes good. Overall, this a good coffee maker, and it is easy to use. I've had it for 2 months now with no problems. The only thing I don't like is the basket. The basket is removable, but it is hard to remove and reinstall. I also don't like that the basket swings out, but that is not a big issue. What I like is that is has a big opening for the reservoir, which makes it easy to pour the water in, and it has a large window in the front to see how much water is added. I paid $14.99 for this coffee maker, and I would recommend it for that price.

Great coffee maker!! I had a black and decker programmable coffee maker that broke just 2 months after I purchased it. I researched and read reviews about coffee makers and found that a lot of java lovers recommend the Mr. Coffee brand for an inexpensive, yet reliable coffee maker. I agree, they are right! I've owned several coffee makers, most of which were inexpensive, but my Mr. Coffee is the best so far. It's set to brew my coffee at 6:00am every morning and it never fails to do so. The coffee brews quickly and it's always hot. I can pour a cup while it's still brewing, and I find it fairly easy to clean. I would definitely recommend this to anyone on a budget, but wanting to wake up to a hot pot of coffee waiting for them!

Pretty basic coffee maker, but perfectly functional, and well worth its price. Setting the clock gave me some trouble, but I eventually got round it and now I use the timer every day as planned.

I don't like these types of reviews - especially the negative ones since often berate the product for the owners' errors or ignorance. Most often there are a number of negative reviews that are clearly the result of someone who did not read the owner's manual. In the case of this coffee maker, some negative reports even appear to be the result of them not cleaning the coffee maker correctly before the first use (including one that references the corrosion). Other examples include: This coffee maker shuts off automatically after 2 hours for safety) - NO coffee maker will keep coffee warm when it is off; the clock is as accurate as the power line frequency (accurate to within less than a second / month); this product has a decanter (not a carafe); over pouring any spout will make a mess (re: chemistry 101 lab); using the specified filters (or others that actually fit) prevents grounds from getting in the coffee as well as problems with the drip mechanism when clogged with grounds. Reviews like this are difficult to weigh until after you make the purchase yourself. I included the above to assist others in weighing the reviews entered by others. I would have simply pointed those interested to read the online owner’s manual, but the Mr. Coffee does not make them available online. There are those selling scanned copies of the manuals, but there is no guarantee that they will match the current version of this product. This coffee maker was clearly designed to cost. It does not have sound deadening so you can hear it work. It is not loud, but you can hear it. The materials are light (i.e., thin), but will be durable with little effort on the part of the owner. It is NOT overbuilt, but at this price no one should expect that it would be. It was clearly a real bargain when evaluated realistically.

Front access to filter compartment, top fill, easy to read sight glass for water level. Very easy to use and to preset for that great fresh brewed coffee smell in the morning.

We've had expensive coffeemaker but this Mr. Coffee is all we need to make a nice cup of coffee. It is basic but also has a clock and programming capabilities. The only drawback that we saw was no filter basket included. Fortunately we had saved one so it didn't require a purchase. Even if this coffeemaker doesn't last that long, we will most likely buy it again. The price at Best Buy was unbelievably good. And fast delivery.

I purchased this item because of the great price. I have not yet used it since it was bought as a backup to my current coffee maker. I have used Mr. Coffee products in the past and have found them to be very good products.

I've had this for several months now and am completely happy. Keeps coffee hot for a couple of hours. Haven't used timer since I never wake up at the same time.

I have been using this coffee maker for a month now and i am very satisfied with this. I am able to make 2 cups of coffee during weekdays and more on weekends. The filter quality is good and there are no spills. The only reason i gave this a 4 star is because of the plastic swing out filter cup holder which can get a bit warm and seems to be fragile.

I've had higher priced units that died in months, while this coffee maker has remained reliable and continues to produce a great cup of coffee time after time. The price is so affordable that I could buy 7-10 of these units at the cost of 1 higher priced coffee maker. That's essentially a lifetime guarantee!!!
