Black & Decker DLX1050W 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker with Glass Carafe, White Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Yes, I used to have to buy those overpriced, German coffee makers--but not any more.When my latest $100 coffee maker started leaking from both the underside and from the little, unreadable, glass tube on the side, I started looking around for a replacement.

I settled on this Black and Decker model because it does everything the high-priced models do, but at a quarter of the price.After three weeks, the clock still keeps excellent time, the machine still comes on when I'm sound asleep so that I wake up to coffee ready to drink.The coffee tastes very good (c'mon, drip coffee is drip coffee--and I am STILL a coffee snob) and is certainly hot enough.The coffee maker is absolutely EASY to program; each button serves but one function.Aside from the fact that it doesn't LEAK, it seems I lose power here with disturbing regularity, so I like to be able to set the clock and the timer easily and quickly and feel assured that I'll have coffee when I wake up.

What I don't miss about the old coffee maker: leaks, erratic, confusingprogramming and multiple functions for one button, default ON for auto coffee making (and there's no way to turn it OFF), special little (hard to find) charcoal filter gizmo, adjustable temperature settings on the hot plate, and did I mention LEAKS.

What I miss about the old coffee maker: ability to change length of time the hot plate stays hot, "CALC" calcium warning.Both of which are easy to overcome.If I want two more hours of hot plate all I do is hit the "power" button; if I want to decalcify my machine, all I have to do is run a load of vinegar through on the solstices and equinoxes.

Product Description:
Brew up to 12 cups of great-tasting coffee at a time with this programmable coffeemaker. Its soft-touch control panel provides an easy-to-read digital display and an auto-brew option, as well as a programmable clock and timer, which comes in handy for making "wake-up" coffee or for having a freshly brewed pot ready and waiting when it's time to serve dessert--no need to get up from the table half way through dinner. The appliance also offers a Sneak-A-Cup interrupt feature for pouring a quick cup midbrew, while its nonstick keep-warm plate ensures the last cup tastes as hot and fresh as the first. After keeping coffee hot for two hours, the appliance will shut off automatically for safety and peace of mind. A Duralife glass carafe comes included, complete with a generous stay-cool handle, measuring marks up the side, and a dripless pour spout for graceful serving. Other highlights include a removable filter basket, a convenient water-level indicator, a power indicator light, and a smooth exterior that wipes clean with a damp cloth.
