coffeepot
The coffeepot works well and saves space on my countertop. It is not as big and bulky as a regular coffee pot.

2-mug coffee maker
We love the coffee maker at work, especially because it turns off by itself, a problem we had with the previous coffee maker. It makes just two mugs.. Would buy again

Best coffee maker at the given price
This is my first coffee maker. I have been a native tea drinker. I started drniking coffee since the past 6 months and bought Black and Decker as it is supposed to be a popular brand with coffee makers. I was amazed to find that Black and Decker had delivered a great product at the given price. The reusable permanent filter was a great add-on. It saved me couple of buks that I would have spent on paper filters. The coffee maker serves dual purpose because amazingly I can also brew light tea using the same filter. The programmable option allows me to prepare coffee before I wake up and the machine keeps it warm for 2 hours before it shuts down. All in all I am very satisfied with the product.

SUPER VALUE & GREAT COFFEE RESULTS
This was a replacement coffee maker for a 4 cup MR. Coffee that stopped working. The best feature is it makes 5 cups, so if you are using a larger mug you can get 2 full servings with each pot. The timer is easy to operate and works perfectly. I never used a steel mesh reusable coffee filter before but it works surprisingly well, but it adds one more thing to wash. Even finely ground coffee does not pass through the reusable filter. Paper coffee filters can be used as well. It can be purchased at Linen-n-Things for $15 with their 20% off coupons. A steal-of-a-deal at that price. The only negative about Black & Decker products is replacement parts (glass pot, filter) are generally not available at retail stores and sometimes they have limited availability since models come and go quickly. But for the price of this unit a complete replacement is less than a couple cups of coffee at Starbucks.

Makes a good cup of coffee
I was pretty impressed by this little guy. The only problem is that it doesn't have automatic turn off and it can get pretty hot if you leave it on. But the coffee tastes good-it's easy to use and it's small. I like it!

Great but needs more heat!
For the price and the features, I don't think you can beat this little guy. My only complaint is that the coffee is not as hot as I'd like it to be, even as soon as it's done brewing. It's not hot, more like warm to very warm. Other than that, it's a great little unit. Just the right size, and very user friendly.

Amazing little brewer for cheap! Able to "Potless-Brew!
Just right for a quick "Single" cup of coffee. I brew directly into the cup so I don't need (or want) the mid-brewing auto-shutoff for pouring during brewing. On units that have temporary brew-stopping device will not brew directly into a mug or cup. Reason is the little spring-loaded shut-off valve is always on "off" when the pot is removed. So, this unit is just great for a pot-less brewing directly into your mug.
Great for the one or two people who want decaf when you're brewing a pot of regular.
Linens-n-Things has it for $19.95 less 20% if you get their coupons in local flyers. I paid $16.00, amazing.
I don't like permanent filters because they retain the coffee oil after brewing and that oil film eventually turns rancid unless you wash the basket after each brewing with detergent to remove the oil.
Does anyone know who makes a 4-cup round paper filter for use? I am using a #2 cone filter but it fits sloppily.
Suggestions?
