Black & Decker Coffee Maker

coffeepot

2009-10-25T01:50:00.000-07:00

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

2009-10-20T01:50:00.000-07:00

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

2009-10-15T01:49:00.000-07:00

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

2009-10-10T01:48:00.000-07:00

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

2009-10-05T01:48:00.000-07:00

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!

2009-09-30T01:42:00.000-07:00

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!

2009-09-25T01:44:00.000-07:00

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?

GoodLlittle Device

2009-09-20T01:44:00.000-07:00

Does a good job as advertised. Though billed as a 5 cup maker, realistically makes 2 full coffee mugs of freshly brewed coffee with a little left over for a warm-up.

For people who complain of leakage or dribbling, you must raise the lid with your thumb when pouring. If the liquid touches the lid, any coffee maker pot will leak. This is especially true when refilling the reservoir because we all tend to just dump the water in. Take this simple step and the frustration disappears.

Counter Saving Coffee Maker

2009-09-19T01:47:00.000-07:00

This pot works great for my needs. It's perfect for the counter and I love the fact that there are no paper inserts. Good value for the money.

Good Value

2009-09-18T01:47:00.000-07:00

If you need an small and cheap coffemaker that does the job this is the right one and I recommend it.

good 4 two

2009-09-17T01:46:00.000-07:00

This is a good one for two. The permanent filter is a plus for there is no extra coast for filters. But if your a couple who drinks more then two cups each then you will definitely want something bigger then the four cups.

Nice little coffee maker

2009-09-16T01:46:00.000-07:00

Shipped very quickly. It's small, only 2 or 3 cups(at the most), but certainly sufficient for one or two people. We've had it for a few weeks and it's served us very well. Have no complaints. Coffee brews quickly and taste good. What more could you want! Just be prepared for its small size.

works great for me

2009-09-15T01:45:00.000-07:00

It's easy to use and easy to clean because of its simple design. It actually has the auto shut-off function. A tiny bit of coffee ground would pass through the permanent mesh filter, but it's not a big deal (I never tried using paper filter with it). It makes good coffee too. Overall a good product.

Perfect for 2

2009-09-14T01:45:00.000-07:00

This is a nice, reasonably priced coffee maker. It makes enough coffee for my husband and myself without a lot of wasted coffee. The programmable function, auto shut off, and permanent filter are all nice features.

I remember that other reviewers commented on drips. However, I've noticed that happens w/ other coffee makers, too, and I think it's just a matter of pouring slowly when the carafe is full.

The reason I gave this product 4 stars instead of 5 is two-fold: (1) it makes a good cup of coffee, but it could probably be more flavorful; and (2) the structure of the machine looks a bit shoddier than how it's depicted in the picture (a sort of flimsy-ish plastic).

Overall, this is a great coffee maker for one or two people, and a good value.

2009-09-13T01:45:00.000-07:00

Makes a great cup of coffee. Easy to use. Only thing I miss on this model is the feature that lets you take a cup before it is finished brewing. Also, it is a little difficult to see the "On" light when it is lit. Otherwise, I am very pleased with this 5 cup coffeemaker.

The sneak-a-cup feature allows you to pour your first cup while the coffee is still brewing. The removable filter basket uses cone shaped filters.

Customer Reviews

Good coffee maker POOR QUALITY
Makes good coffee. I like the thermal carafe because it keeps coffee hot longer and can you take it to table. I didn't give it 5 stars because plastic is a little poorly made. But it works and the price was good.
UPDATE:
Since I wrote above I decided to return it. The plastic is very poor quality and is warping. Edges don't line up well. Not worth keeping.

I would change the stars to only 2.

Coffee Maker
We've looked for a long time to find a glass thermos type carafe/coffee maker and this is the only one we found. We think all the stainless steel carafe types impart a metallic taste.

We're sightly disappointed in how long it keeps the coffee hot even when tempered. Otherwise everything else about the coffee maker is fine.

Also, we were supposed to get free super saver shipping with this item but somehow being on the same order as some other items caused that to fall through and we wound up paying a hefty shipping fee for this item. We'll be careful to place separate orders in the future.

I love the Black & Decker thermal coffee makers
For years I have used a Black & Decker thermal coffee maker. The coffee stays fresh and warm for hours. Plus I can sneak a cup while it is still brewing. I am still using my old B & D themal coffee maker which is better made than this one, but I have certainly gotten my monies worth and I am sure I will with this one when I am ready to use it. My son loves this coffee maker,so I recently brought him the stainess steel 10 cup Black & Decker thermal coffee maker for his office.

Customer Reviews

Good basic coffee maker
If you're looking for a good basic coffee maker with a timer this is it! Not expensive, not fancy but works and makes a decent cup of coffee. I was attracted to the price and the B&D brand name. I have several other B&D appliances as well as tools and I'm happy with them all.

Coffeemaker
I love this coffee pot---it is clean looking and finally the pot pours without dripping all over. (I have buying this coffee maker for years and some of the pots would drip.) The timer is convenient and the handle has been improved so water doesn't accumulate there from in the dishwasher. I know from experience that this appliance will only last about 2 years. I wish it would be longer. One drawback---it is supported by 2 feet in front and one at center back-which makes it feel unstable. It would be better if it had 4 feet.

Exactly what I was looking for!
It took several orders from different sellers but I finally found the coffee maker that I wanted. Primarily, the coffee filter basket swung out rather than being accessible from the top. The problem with most others is that the top cover is so large that it would not open underneath upper cabinets. The other poor reviews can not be substantiated as far as I'm concerned.

Customer Reviews

Great cup of coffee, but ...
This Black & Decker DLX850 coffee pot was cheap (about $20.00 at KMart last year.) It brewed an excellent pot of coffee and the swing out basket was a great feature for cleanup, etc. Easy to fill and has water level indicator. The "Pause and serve" feature was great too!
However, the switch failed within less than a year and now I can't find the same pot anymore, locally.
For the $20 price tag it can't be beat! I see that I can find another one on Amazon or a few other places, but with shipping they would cost alot more than I originally paid. (I bought a Cuisinart to replace it, for which I have posted a review, today. I hope the new coffee maker lasts 2 or more years! I did, after all, pay more than twice as much for this new one!)

very good!
This product hasn't failed me yet, so I really don't know what to say. It has nice glass thingy and a nice white color. Sorry I can't help you with this. It's easy to operate.

I have not had any problems with mine and can only say good things about it. The timer has worked perfectly, which is especially important when you start your day at 3am!

Customer Reviews

Good for the money
I have owned four other thermal carafe coffee makers of various types and quality. I found this one to be equal to or better than my previous purchases. Thermal carafe coffee makers keep the coffee fresh by not "baking" the coffee which retains the good flavor. Coffee quality was good, coffee temperature was also adequate, set up for brewing was reasonable, I saw the open/close lid markings to be obvious. My wife liked this unit because of the stainless steel design. If you expect your coffee to be "Dunkin Donuts" hot, you'll be disappointed with any home thermal carafe coffeemaker. But if you make coffee to be consumned within a one to three hour time period, I'll enjoy this product.

Great for the money!
I am very pleased with this coffee maker it has exactly the features i wanted except the reusable filter - i just brought my own. This unit makes good coffee, with both the gourmet and cheap coffees I use. It looks great and the stainless carfe feels well made when you hold it. It took me a couple of tries to get the hang of the lid but not an issue after that. I find that the coffee stays hot for hours if you close the lid after each serving. Worth the money!

Black & Decker Aromaster Coffee Maker
I was looking for a reasonably priced coffee maker that got the job done without too many bells & whistles. This appliance is excellent, autoomatic on & off, warming plate up to two hours, NO-Drip carafe! It is simple and efficient and makes a great cup of Joe. KQ

Good coffee, bad clock
We purchased this coffee maker for our office based on many positive Amazon reviews (now unavailable). It brews excellent coffee, looks good, and pours well.

However, the clock continually resets itself -- it can't keep time for more than a couple of hours before resetting to 12 PM and counting from there. Since the clock is unreliable, the programmed-brewing feature cannot be used. And having the wrong time continually displayed (in very bright LEDs) in an office environment can only reflect poorly on the business. So we will most likely be looking for another model.

Customer Reviews

A great coffee maker for the price
I originally had a 4-cup coffee maker with a stainless steel carafe. It did the job, but would not stop leaking during pours. I was a bit skeptical of the DCM2590 because of the price, but I was wrong. While eight cups may seem a bit much, the thermal carafe has kept coffee I made in the morning warm until after work! Plus, not a single drip out of the carafe! The coffee tastes great and is quite hot. Highly recommended purchase.

Good coffe maker
This thermal carafe coffee maker works well in getting most of the flavor from the coffee, is very easy to clean, is energy efficient, keeps the coffee hot and keeps flavor in the coffee for a long time if the top is closed securely, is reasonably attractive, appears to be durable, and seemed to be the least expensive of all the thermal carafe coffee makers currently available. I believe that it should be illegal to sell old fashioned hot-plate coffee makers, which are incredibly wasteful of energy and which make coffee undrinkable 5 minutes after brewing.

Good energy-saver coffee maker
This a good coffee maker. Makes good hot coffee and shuts off automatically when brewed. Pot keeps coffee hot for about an hour. Only problem is the lid which needs a more visible mark making it easier to line up properly.

Customer Reviews

I don't understand everyone's problem with this coffee maker...
I love this coffee maker..we have had no problems with it what-so-ever. Finally, a caraffe that does not leak all over the place while pouring a cup of coffee...bravo Black & Decker for this sleek design. A little different looking than usual..but it doesn't leak!! & we've had none of the other problems that everyone else is talking about in their reviews. Maybe those users aren't doing something right or didn't install it correctly...I don't know. I recommend it & sorry if you have any of the problems that everyone else has if you based your purchase on my review...but I love it & have no complaints. ok...hold up...as I'm typing this my husband said it overflowed everywhere yesterday...? Maybe I'll be back for a follow up. but we've had it for a month now & that is the 1st issue I've heard of so far. I guess everything is entitled to a screw up once in a while right? Besides...it was probably operator error since it hasn't happened before & has only happened once. :)

Customer Reviews

Problems Fixed???
Gotta say that I think B & D have done some re-engineering on this item since these initial reviews were written, based on all the problems which I haven't experienced in the week since I've purchased this. The brew-interrupt works fine, the heating element doesn't keep working after the water has gone through, and the spout on the coffee pot itself works perfectly. Might also note that some of these reviews really refer to another model. This has no timer on it. You turn it on, you turn it off. And, at least for me, everything works perfectly.

Other handy extras include a water-level window, cord storage to keep excess cord out of the way, and a nonstick keep-warm plate that ensures the last cup of coffee is as hot as the first. The coffeemaker measures approximately 9-4/5 by 7-1/5 by 10-4/5 inches.

Black & Decker 5-Cup Coffee Maker
Black & Decker 5-Cup Coffeemaker is an inexpensive & quick way to a delicious cup of coffee. The size of the pot is perfect for one person or two. So easy to use & easy clean up. Nice, clean lines. Great gift idea.
Note: when filling the water resovoir & pouring the coffee, it's best to use the thumb tab to lift the carafe lid, otherwise the liquid tends to over flow the spout.

No bells and whistles, just a good little coffee maker
The Black & Decker 5-cup coffeemaker is a good little basic pot for those times when you only need to make enough coffee for one or two people. I generally use a 16 oz. mug for my coffee and with this pot I get almost two mugs full. One of the other reviewers mentioned that the hot plate portion of their pot had corroded from the coffee dripping onto it. I haven't had that problem but I've only had my pot for about three months. There are no bells and whistles with this machine - no timers, automatic shutoff, etc. It's just a good basic coffeemaker for people who don't want to make a big pot of coffee when all they want is a cup or two.

Black & Decker SDC740 SpaceMaker 12-Cup Coffeemaker, White

2009-06-25T07:26:00.001-07:00

Amazon.com Product Description
Coffee lovers no longer have to give up valuable counter space to accommodate a clunky coffeemaker. This unit easily installs under a cabinet, keeping work surfaces clear for food prep and other everyday tasks. More than just a space-saving convenience, the coffeemaker comes with an array of user-friendly features for brewing up to 12 cups of great-tasting coffee. Its clock and timer allow for programming the unit to begin brewing at a later time--great for wake-up coffee in the morning or having a pot ready to serve with dessert without having to get up from the table half way through dinner. For those eager for that first sip, the unit's Sneak-A-Cup interrupt function pauses the brewing cycle to allow for pouring a quick cup midbrew. Coffee brews directly into the unit's Perfect Pour glass carafe, which provides a generous stay-cool handle and a drip-free spout. Other highlights include a removable filter basket, a removable water reservoir with an illuminated water-level indicator window, a nonstick heating plate, cord storage, and automatic shut-off for peace of mind. At least two of the mounting holes are the same as the original (ODC) coffeemaker to facilitate simple upgrades, and its Save-a-Plug outlet makes it possible to connect a SpaceMaker Mini Food Processor/Grinder or Can Opener directly into the coffeemaker, saving the wall outlet for other uses. The coffeemaker measures approximately 12-3/5 by 12 by 15-1/2 inches.

Great product, but some room for improvement
I bought one of these a few months back as I need all the counter space I can get. It is perfect for my kitchen and I love the space I got. It makes a quick pot of coffee and the temp is just right.
I think the only couple downsides I see are that the place where you pour the water is a small hole, easy to miss. Also, for some reason, the clock is screwy. It is slow and it looses about an hour every day. Finally, the pot on mine broke after only a month and I cannot find a replacement for it.

space saver coffee maker
appliance works very well. Very overpriced from Amazon. Black and Decker store price $54.

under cupboard coffee maker
Got SDC750 for Christmas. Hard to install because of screw hole allignment, easy for an engineer. very good brewer and love the ease of programming. would buy a standard counter unit if doing it again.

Customer Reviews

This coffee maker is a terrific peace keeper - - -
The B&D model DDCM200 is a great product for two people. It's advantage is in allowing two different cups to be brewed - different flavors, strengths, caffinated/decaffinated, or even tea.

Every cup comes out consistent once you learn how much coffee to put into basket for the amount of water you put in. We have learned this ratio for varying amounts of water so if we feel like a full or half mug we can get what we desire - consistently, and fast.

A knob on the top turned to the left diverts water to just the left side for one cup, or when turned to the right yields two cups. When brewing two, the left cup always gets a bit more water than the right - the right mug's coffee level is about 3/8ths of an inch lower than the left mug.

You can use the supplied baskets and forgo filters, but I like to use the #1 paper filters inside the baskets as cleanup is even easier than just the basket - the choice is yours.

As for noise, it does make some but I in no way find it offensive. Unlike some coffee makers that seem to linger, when the brew cycle finishes the water stops entering the basket almost immediately. I like this as when it's done, it's done.

There are no hot plates in this maker - nothing to burn any errant drippings, no safety issues. In fact if after brewing you leave the machine on, it will turn itself off. The coffee is meant to brew directly into your mug. I generally brew into an old, large, Dunkin Donuts (made by THERMO) mug without it's lid. This mug is better insulated and keeps my coffee warm enough for me for a long time. I do NOT like coffee too hot to drink. If a coffee shop wants me to use a cup insulator sleeve to keep from burning my hand, then the coffee is way too hot for me. I mention this as the B&D DDCM200 makes a hot cup of coffee but if you are expecting it to be so hot you'd need a sleeve, it won't be.

This machine is fast. It is faster than many of my Mr. Coffee machines and only the single cup machine I use at work is faster.

Would I buy it again? YES, YES, YES! I'm here at Amazon looking for a second one for use at my girlfriend's house. She got me mine a year ago (been working great for a year) and likes it so much she now wants one. When she moves in here next year, we will have two so I'll have a backup. I don't see this model # on the B&D website so I'll presume it is no longer made. Another reason I want to get a second unit ... that's how much I enjoy the one I have!

I recommend this to individuals who like different cups of coffee - gone will be the waiting between first and second pots, or arguing over which coffee do you both drink, or its strength. What a terrific peace keeper!!

Just what we wanted
My husband and I purchased this coffee maker to use in our travel trailer. It works great. So easy to make the coffee and if one of us wants a different blend or stronger coffee - no problem. It works quickly and is a breeze to clean up - no filters to buy either. We're very happy with it.

Excellent for one Cup of Coffee...Recommend it!
I used it for the first time and my coffee was VERY hot, the mugs are very nice with rubber gripping. It cleans up easily without having to clean a pot, just the mug. I used Starbuck coffee and it really tasted like I got it from Starbucks, hot and delicious.

I only drink 1 cup a day at work so this was perfect for me. The mug keeps it hotter longer than a mug, it's not insulated very well but you can always use another insulated mug, just take the cover off and put it on the burner. I tried Starbucks mug which keeps it hot for hours and it worked just fine. If you drink your coffee in under an hour than the mug that it came with will work just fine. If you are looking for easy, a cup of hot coffee, this one is worth the price otherwise you will have to pay $80 or more for fancy features. This is very basic and I didn't mind the noise, it wasn't louder than my Krups...I don't know of any coffee maker that is noise free as stated in the previous review.

Amazon.com Review
Blessed with a carafe that pours without dripping, a water filter, and touchpad electronic controls, this coffeemaker provides safety, convenience, and a host of options for brewing 12 5-ounce cups at once. The carafe is calibrated for both filling the reservoir properly and for judging the amount of brewed coffee and the water filter improves taste by reducing chlorine. The control panel provides a 24-hour clock/timer for brewing "wake-up" coffee and permits the nonstick warming plate's temperature to be set as desired.

Other features include a calibrated window on each side for monitoring the water reservoir's level, a hinged cover that flips back to reveal both reservoir and coffee filter, and cord storage. The carafe has a comfortable handle and a guard to protect the knuckles. The coffeemaker measures 7-3/4 inches wide, 12-1/2 inches high, and 10-1/4 inches deep. --Fred Brack

Customer Reviews

No leaks, no spills! Nicely designed machine. Here's why..
We all know the problem coffee makers. They have mysterious water leaks, they don't drip into the carafe correctly, the filter basket overflows if it isn't perfectly in place.

Black and Decker (B&D) has designed a coffee maker that is inexpensive and simply eliminates those problems...

How I know:
I got this coffee maker for the office. We brew at least three 12-cup pots a day. We've done about 100 pots WITHOUT A SPILL OR LEAK. I highly recommend this machine.

What I know:
The "Perfect Pour Carafe" is great. B&D just gave it a wider spout! What a concept! You wouldn't think a handle makes a big difference, but when you're carrying 12-cups-worth of water or coffee, you will suddenly appreciate this excellent handle. This carafe even looks nice.

The filter basket does not swing out, nor must you hold it in one hand while you add the coffee. Swing-out baskets are the ones that overflow when you don't close them perfectly, and slide-out removable baskets leave only one hand for the scooping chores. This basket can be removed to dump the old grounds, but is then replaced in the machine so both hands are free.

That is because the lid opens up to expose the filter basket and the unobstructed, large water resevoir. No careful aiming or water splashing off of useless plastic grates when filling. There is a strange looking, hinged "shower head" that delivers the hot water to the filter basket. It is simple in design and works well.

The lid closes securely and pins down the removable filter basket to further eliminate human error in basket positioning.

Even the "sneak a cup" mechanism is simple and effective. It is simply a rubber stopper on a simple lever. The carafe can be placed in a "wrong" and possibly overflow-producing position, but if you place it with the handle straight out, you can't go wrong.

Water level is indicated externally on both sides of the machine.

Auto shut-off after two hours is essential in our office. It works and the coffee is kept quite hot during that time.

Easy to clean (buttons are water/coffee proof).

Need I say more?

A reliable workhorse of a coffeemaker
I've seen some negative reviews on here of this coffeemaker, and I felt that I should write a review of a positive experience to give some perspective.

I've had this coffeemaker for about a year and a half, and I don't have any complaints. No parts have broken, the clock is accurate, the timer still functions, I still wake up every morning to a nice fresh pot of coffee. The lip of the pot is well formed, so that you never spill when you're pouring a cup. These are all simple things, but coffee is a simple thing. If you don't notice your coffeemaker, that means that it was designed well. This is an inexpensive, reliable coffee machine.

In fact, I've even abused the little guy. I like to make Thai iced tea, but I'm also too lazy to use a teapot, so I'll run my tea through it three or four times until it's dark enough, and it still holds up like a champ.

Here are some of the convenient features:

- Water window on the side, so you can see how much water you're putting in without having to measure using the pot.
- Timer feature so you can wake up to pre-brewed coffee without waiting.
- Sturdy, elegant pot design. The pot can be put in the dishwasher with no problems, and the large handle means you'll never drop it.
- Auto-off feature that turns the heating element off after two hours. (Another reviewer mentioned that there was no auto-off, which is incorrect)
- Large capacity scales well. By this, I mean that it makes two cups of coffee just as easily as it makes 12 cups, so it's good for a morning alone, or if you want a lot of coffee for several people.

The reason I didn't give it a five is that there are a few minor drawbacks:

- It's a little difficult to clean, because of the design of the pot and the maker itself. Not terribly difficult, but a tad annoying.
- The "sneak a cup" feature isn't perfect, it can leak a couple drops when you use it. However, I use the timer, so never have to sneak a cup, you can just have a pot ready whenever you want.

But honestly, these drawbacks are inconsequential. You're not going to find a better coffeemaker for under $30 with this many features, and this kind of reliability. I highly recommend it.

Fine coffee with features of much higher-priced models !
Now we know why this coffee maker was rated so highly (a "best buy") by THE respected consumer magazine. Not only does it brew a flavorful cup of coffee at just the right strength (following their recommended one scoop of coffee per two cups), but the unit has the most wanted features of coffee makers without spending two-to-three times the price. The keep-hot plate auto-shutoff, and digital clock timer that allows one to setup the pot the night before and awake to freshly brewed coffee, is convenience at the utmost. The programming (including just setting the correct time, that displays in very bright red LED numbers) was a snap. (We also did buy separately a permanent gold filter, which fits perfectly.)

While we have seen a number of complaints from other reviewers about the quality of this item, so far in several months of daily use we are completely satisfied. Stay tuned.

Black & Decker SDC850 Spacemaker Coffeemaker

Customer Reviews

I Love the Black & Decker SDC850

I got the SDC850 and installed it immediately. I have owned 4 over the last 19 years. My favorite was the GE thermal carafe (that later became black and decker) that hung from the coffee maker. Well this is just like it, except for the fact that the GE had a glass thermos type carafe and this one is Stainless. With the glass one I used to make coffee every morning and it would still be warm 9 hours later when I got home. Anyway, the SDC850 is a real nice replacement for the old spacemaker. The mounting bracket took some extreme strength to remove so it could be mounted. The template used to drill holes was a bit off, nothing that larger holes couldnt fix. This unit has a larger LCD display and LED indicators. One feature that I used to dislike was not being able to tell if the coffee maker was on. This new coffee maker addresses that. A nice bright blue LED lets you know it is brewing. The other nice feature is a blue led that stays on for 20 minutes after the brew cycle completes, thus letting you know its fresh. The unit is very high off the counter allowing for more counter space and since the carafe hangs from the unit, you do not have to leave it hanging thereby creating even more counterspace. I read all the other review about this unit and except for the mounting issues, I have had none of the other issues others have spoken of. It took years but I am happy B&D finally listened.

Customer Reviews

Nice looking, but does have annoyances
I've had a few different black and decker under cabinet coffee pots over the years and they were overdue for an update on the overall look of the product. I give the basic design 5 stars in that, the look is more current and if you have had the older version, you do get more noticable increase of counter usability space with this model. On the other hand, there are some annoyances with this new version. (I'm keeping the coffee maker)

For the overall rating that I provided of 3 stars, here is why.

Installation Template... JOKE
Missing measurement legends so was not usable. I held the coffer maker up to the cabinet to determine where I wanted it to be installed, measured from a few places on the coffee pot and cabinet and used the hanging bracket of the coffee maker as the template (pencil through screw holes).

Installation Hardware... screws wrong size
This is a design problem in concept, while having a bag of a bunch of different sizes solves the problem, or in my case, a hacksaw solved the problem. The ultimate reason is that there is no gap between the end of the screw when installed and the coffee pot to slide on. In older models if the screw went into the nut and came out the otherside by a 1/4 of an inch it was fine. In this model the screw must not go much past being flush to the end of the nut.... which is nuts!

Water Reservior... nice idea, but has challenges
a) Since the reservoir has such a large surface area, providing an exact amount of water is not easy. When you set it on the counter and fill it, it doesn't sit flat, etc, etc.
b) The top of the reservior is removable in order to clean it out. When you have the water around 10 cups, or more likely 12 cups, this lid doesn't seal the water in very good for a short walk from the sink to the coffee maker. Not a big deal, not a lot of dripping, but you have to pay attention to it.

Sneak a cup... Twice now we have had coffee overflow out of the filter area. This was due to the sneak a cup braket not designed very well. When you put the coffee pot into the unit, it pushes on a little handle/arm... barely. This braket opens/closes a door on the bottom of the filter. If the coffee pot is slightly off being place in properly, plan on a nice clean up of coffee on the counter. I added a little bit of bulk to the face of the bracket and I think it will solve the problem.

Removing top bracket... Geez, one of the first steps in the installation is to remove the top mounting bracket/piece from the top of the coffee maker... OMG, my wife and I were playing tug-a-war to get that dumb thing off. This should NOT come pre-connected to the coffee maker.

Handling of Water reservior and Filter. Neither have a nice handle or way to grip them. The filter part is more awkward to hold than the resourvoir, but it should be looked at.

I know I listed several things, but from the things listed, I don't think they are show-stoppers, I'll be keeping the coffee maker.

nice product...instructions really really bad.. go buy screws..and a bottle of wine.
A nice product but this one was even tougher to follow the instructions with than the toaster oven. Again, NO SCREWS fit. There were long enough screws but they were too long and the unit would not slide back onto the top mounting piece. And the template didn't have the measurements on it again. Had to get via email again b/c couldn't find on their website. You really have to figure this out on your own. I think what worked for me was once you determine which line pertains to the depth of your front hangover, fold on that line and place the folded template behind the overhang up against the bottom of the cabinet. Hope you have a hardware store nearby to run out and get screws in the middle of the installation...or maybe your overhang is less than 1". the difference in length between the middle screw and the longest screw is an inch if i'm not mistaken. for me, I needed it to be 1/2 longer than the middle one, or 1/2 shorter than the longer one. snipping the longer bolts didn't work. just screwed up the threads. I guess it would work if you installed the top piece then snipped but once you take it off, you won't be able to re-install it. plus taking it off my cross thread the nuts then you're worse off. if you need bolts, suggest just biting the bullet and going to the hardware store.

Nice alternative to the SDC850
I'm one of the reviewers of the SDC 850 that had a leaky pot. Thankfully, this one doesn't leak and indeed uses the same holes as the SDC 850-I even kept the screws I had to hacksaw for the SDC 850 and used them on this one. Works well, doesn't leak. Wish it had the stainless steel trim of course and also wish it were thermal like the SDC 850 because on my last two B&D ODC440B's the warmer plate rusted out in a few months. If the warmer plate does not rust out this is indeed a viable alternative to the SDC 850. Hopefully B&D reads these.

Customer Reviews

It has it all !!!!
It is the size I wanted. Great design. Attractive and compact. I wanted a break resistant carafe (so my kids can do the dishes). The carafe is well built and is lightweight. I too was concerned that it is not a thermal insulated carafe but it turns out that is not needed since it sits on a "Keep Hot" warming plate. Though it is not listed on the outside of the box, it does indeed automatically shut off after 2 hours as described in the instructions. The clock and programmable timer are simple to set up. Best of all it brews hot delicious coffee!

Really Good Coffeemaker
I love this 5-cup coffeemaker. This is the first Black & Decker coffeemaker that I have ever owned. I was a die-hard Mr. Coffee user until I tried this little 5-cup from Black & Decker. First of all it brews a superb cup of coffee. The stainless steel carafe is a money saver, in that you don't have to worry about it breaking or cracking. The stainless steel carafe is thin, but it is durable, and it does keep the coffee hot while on the "keep hot plate." It's programmable, and it shuts off after two hours. I use the 8-12 cup size paper filters in the filter basket and they fit perfect. The silver and black color goes well with the decor of my kitchen. I've been drinking coffee for almost 40 years, and I would definitely recommend the 5-cup Black & Decker coffeemaker to anyone who loves a good "cup of joe."

Customer Reviews

Good Basic Coffee Maker

We didn't want timers, clocks, adjustable brew strength, bells and whistles... We just wanted a good cup of coffee. We like the comfortable handle, we like the the location and size of the on/off switch that you can find in the semi-darkness when you're still mostly asleep. And we LOVE the clear markings on the carafe that takes the guesswork out of the fill level. (For this much coffee, fill to this water level.)

We have not experienced the problems mentioned in some of the other reviews. Maybe it's because I'm used previous makers, but I'm in the habit of holding the lid partway open when I pour coffee, so have not noticed the leaky-drippy factor that seems to be the focus of some of the complaints. The only problem I have had so far was not seating the basket properly, thus getting 12 cups of coffee all over my kitchen table. It only happened once because we now take an extra second to make sure the basket and carafe are properly in place.

As far as the referrals to this product as "cheap" - What do you expect for 20-25 dollars?! Normally, I would say "you get what you pay for," but in this case, I feel we got MORE than we paid for: A good coffee maker at a decent price.

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.

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.

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.

Black & Decker DCM18S Brew 'n Go Personal Coffeemaker with Travel Mug

2009-06-25T07:17:00.000-07:00

Product Description

Wouldn't this make a great gift for a student, or a commuter? The machine brews right into the thermal travel mug and then shuts itself off, so your favorite coffee lover can simply grab and go!

Amazon.com Review
Great for commuters, office professionals, and one-coffee-drinker households, this personal coffeemaker brews 15 ounces of coffee directly into a stainless-steel travel mug. The mug has a rubber handle for a safe grip and a lid to keep coffee hot. It's tapered to a 2-1/2-inch-diameter bottom, so it fits most vehicle cup holders. The coffeemaker itself is designed for an on-the-go coffee drinker. It has a permanent filter--no messy disposable paper filters required--and shuts off automatically after brewing. The mug, filter, filter basket, and mug lid are dishwasher-safe, and the coffeemaker can also be used to heat water for tea, hot chocolate, and instant foods like oatmeal and soup. Made of gleaming black plastic, it measures 9-3/4 inches high, 7 inches wide, and 6 inches deep, and carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Customer Reviews

What a great idea!
I bought this coffeemaker for home about 2 months ago and I love it! It is extremely convenient to be able to quickly brew coffee for just one person. The best features of this unit are:

1. It has a built in, "permanent" filter which is a HUGE plus. No more running out of filters, EVER.

2. It is fast. In just a couple minutes I can go from sleep to sipping coffee.

3. It brews the coffee right into the travel mug. The unit I bought included an extra mug which is also a great convenience.

4. It is inexpensive!

The only downside I can see is that I would have made the travel mugs a bit larger, but that is not a serious problem. I would buy this coffeemaker again without hesitation.

Marriage saver
This nifty little coffeemaker is difficult to find in stores, so I was glad to see it at Amazon. It saved my marriage because my spouse doesn't drink coffee (hates the stuff) and there's no pot to clean. Even though it comes with a huge mug, the coffee tastes best when you use it with a normal china mug or cup, and with beans that are ground fine. I'm on my second one -- it lasts about four to five years in daily use. Not bad for the money. I won't drink coffee that's been sitting for more than five minutes, so the Brew 'n Go is perfect. If you're the only Joe drinker in the house, it's an absolute must!

Great Coffee With No Fuss
I read the reviews before ordering this personal coffee maker, and since some people had 'overflow problems' and some talked about coffee not being quite hot enough, I almost didn't get it.

Glad I went ahead. First, I put a small tray under the coffee maker in case of an overflow...I also always use a No. 1 size Mellita Filter in the basket, which makes it easier to clean and may help with the overflow problem, since I have never had that happen.

I use Folger's Classic Roast and use one and a half scoops with a regular size coffee scooper..I fill the cup within about 1/2" of the top and pour it in...put the cup in place, click the switch and ......perfectly hot, full bodied coffee every time with no problems at all so far...have used it about 20 times.

It makes a great large cup of coffee and the mug has a very comfortable feel to it. This coffee maker comes in handy when you don't want to mess with a full pot and it is very fast. I couldn't be more pleased - well worth the price!
