Mr. Coffee Black and Stainless Steel 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Coffee makers in our house usually last 5 years before they have to be replaced. Last year we shopped around and decided the Mr. Coffee Black and Stainless Steel 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker had the most bang for the buck.We have never owned a Mr. Coffee until now.We loved it until recently it started to act up, and of course the 1 year warranty just ran out a month ago.So we are shopping around for a new coffee maker, it won't be a Mr. Coffee.

Mr. Coffee JHX33 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker with eLume Touch-Screen Technology Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have been using Mr. Coffee coffeemakers for years, and although they have generally been reliable and customer service has been helpful when needed, I found myself with a new kitchen arrangement and needed a coffeemaker that allows one to put the coffee grounds and the water in from the side, rather than lifting a lid from front to back, as almost all coffeemakers do.This maker has a lid on the left for the coffee and another one on the right for the water.I find it to be a perfect arrangement.There is also a control to change the quality of the coffee from regular to stronger and the like, but for the most part it just makes the same good coffee Mr. Coffee always produces.At the same time, although one can grow weary of the fact that Mr. Coffee seems to invent a new carafe for every maker, this new one, with a plastic top, seems to eliminate the problems of dripping that I've had so often with Mr. Coffee products in the past:it pours cleanly every time.The touchscreen business is nice looking and fancy, but that is secondary to me.If anything, I worry most about the touchscreen holding up over time.But the maker looks good, it brews fine coffee, it has side openings for the coffee grounds and water, and the carafe seems finally to have solved the problems with dripping that also seemed to accompany earlier products.It's a bit more expensive than most Mr. Coffee products, but it's well worth it.

Product Description:
With its sleek, stylish design, this 12-cup coffeemaker not only looks great on the counter, but it also provides an array of convenient features. Enjoy easy reading and programming thanks to its unique, digital eLume touch-screen control panel, which offers "brew now", "delay brew", "brew strength", "clean", and other options for simple operation and maintenance. Even more, the control panel goes dark for a hidden effect when not in use, adding to its sophisticated appearance. To brew, simply add ground coffee to the removable filter insert, which lifts out of the brew basket for easy filling and cleaning; pour a measured amount of water into the water tank, replace the carafe, and make a selection. The included 12-cup carafe provides measuring marks up the side, a generous stay-cool handle, and a drip-free spout for graceful serving. Removing the carafe from the machine midbrew pauses the flow of coffee and allows for pouring a quick cup, and after a two-hour keep-warm mode, the unit shuts off automatically for safety and peace of mind. Housed in durable, black plastic with gleaming chrome accents, the coffeemaker measures 7-1/5 by 11-1/2 by 13-1/2 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Mr.coffee 35 Anniversary Maker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Over the years, I have had Mr. Coffeemakers and have been pleased with every one.After a couple of years, they seem to have a shelf life..they up and die on you but during that couple of years..they make darn good coffee.

In the meantime, I have tried the Cuisinart top of the line, a couple of the Barista models (Starbucks) and every one of them made coffee that made me despair.It wasn't as if these two manufacturers' products did not have a shelf life, because they conked out; the reason they had no shelf life was that I threw them out, because I could not get a good cup of coffee.

Well, I am back.I just picked up my new Mr. Coffee Classic today and just tasted the coffee...hmmm good.It has all of the bells and whistles, but does not automatically grind the coffee.I did not want that feature; because none of them get the coffee the way I like it.I have a separate grinder to grind up my coffee beans now.However, Mr. Coffee does have models that grind the beans as well if you must have that feature built into your coffee maker.

This model has cord storage, ambient light, 2 to 4 hour warmer with icon, brew strength, make coffee now or delay button(s), clock, pause button, warming pad, place for cups, filter, water filter, pretty much everything all of the more expensive brands have for much, much less.And best of all, it works.You can have a great cup of coffee.

By the way, I have even purchased the most inexpensive Mr. Coffee models in the past; and even these models outclassed the coffee of the Cuisinart and Barista models I had.I honestly believe that keeping it simple works best and Mr. Coffee knows how to brew coffee.Haven't tried making cocoa yet; but think that would be dynamite.

Anyways, I am very pleased with my purchase and feel like I have come home again with a thrifty buy.Just wanted to share my experiences so that you do not pay too much for a machine which does not give you what you want: a good cup of coffee.

Mr. Coffee VBX23 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I love coffee! Coffee, coffee & more coffee! For as long as I can remember, I have owned the basic, easy-to-use, bell and whistle-less Mr. Coffee Machine.

Early one morning, I was horrified to discover that the heating elment on my then current machine had committed suicide the night before. It was an ugly morning of bumping into walls and uttering quite a few ugly little sentences. Avid coffee drinkers will understand.

So I head over to the local "Linnens-and-Beyond" type place,(what exactly is the "beyond" part anyway?)and I found it. The basic, black, 12 cup, on/off, timer if I should ever decide to use it, under $30.00 Mr coffee. Yay! Oh the rejoicing!!

Until I got it out of the box. The horror! They had changed the design of my beloved basic machine!

It used to be that just the back water chamber lid opened. Now the whole top of the machine is lidded. The problem? I have to pull the machine all the way to the edge of the counter to pour the water in. Then I have to push the whole thing back after it is full. Splash!! Ok not so big a problem, right?
Wrong!! And now for the idiots of the world, they have introduced two sunflower seed sized holes on the back wall of the water chamber. I suppose this is so he chamber is not over-filled. Great. So any water that I may overpour goes all over the counter. Or when I push the machine back into place, the splashing water in the chamber comes out - you guessed it, all over the counter. Hey guys, thanks. What a brilliant idea.

Oh, did I mention that the pot itself is it's own little nightmare and a half. This pot spills, spills, spills and spills some more. When filling the chamber, it dribbles.When I am pouring a cup, it dribbles all over, you guessed it, my counter. Gee, I sure am getting sick of wiping up the counter.

Open up the top of this machine and you will find the filter basket which has above it, a pivoting water arm. Ths arm must be moved anytime the filter is to be removed or replaced. Did I mention I wanted basic? Why am I delaing with moving parts at 5am? Oh one more flaw with this design. Remember our dribbling special-ed pot? Well if any water you are pouring into the chamber hits the axis point of the pivoting arm (ooh fancy!), said water will dribble instantaneously onto the heating element below (where the pot sits). Yay! More to wipe up!

Ok, so the bottom line is, pass on this design. I don't know why the original design had to be changed, but change is not always a good thing.
The company should reimburse me for all the paper towels I have to use EVERY day.

I would like to see the machine go back to its previous design so I may be able to start my day NEATLY and happily with my oldest friend, Mr. Coffee.

Mr. Coffee 12-Cup Programmable Coffeeemaker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After reading the reviews for this and other coffee makers, I concluded everyone is having quality control problems. I sympathize with the folks who have gone through two or three lemons before finding something that performed as advertised. I've had that experience and it can make you crazy.
But I loved the cool looks of this thing the first time I saw one at the home of friends in Alma, Colo. They were happy with theirs and it performed well at 10,600 feet in the Colorado Rockies.
So I rolled the dice and bought one at Wal-Mart, but took care to keep the receipt in case they were having a bad day on the Third World assembly line when my coffee maker was being built.
I've used it daily for three weeks now and it's performed perfectly. No leaks, no overflowing, no fires or explosions. Just good coffee.
And I like the fact that it turns itself off after two hours so I don't have to worry about whether I turned off the coffee maker when I'm out running my morning errands.
MAY 2009 - It's still working fine, although my Colorado friends' machine crapped out sometime last year.

Hamilton Beach Iced Tea Maker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Very easy to use.Put water in the base, tea bags in the top of the pitcher, ice in the bottom of pitcher, press button, walk away.It's really that easy!I like sweet iced tea, so I don't put in the ice right away, I put the sugar in the bottom instead, when it's done brewwing I mix the tea, then add ice.This adds some time to making the tea, but it's still quick.I've seen some reviews complaining the tea isn't strong enough.I like it on the strongest setting (there are 3 brew strengh settings).But I've also wet a paper towel and put that over the filter (like a thicker filter), and the tea tasted great.I've tried the fruity teas, expensive teas, but love lipton tea bags.This is a perfect gift too - not expensive and easy to use.

Mr. Coffee CJX21CP 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My wife bought a Mr. Coffee 12-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker with Water Filtration, and after a couple of weeks this model stopped brewing coffee. I'm guessing there must be some kind of check valve that was sticking because, you know, as a last resort hit it. Banging it got it working again. Every 5 or 6 brews it doesn't work, bang it.

It is probably going back to Costco.

I'm guessing this is a known problem?

Mr. Coffee ECMP50 Espresso/ Cappuccino Maker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Like most who purchased this product, it was my first espresso maker. And I found out quickly that hunting for these things can be overwhelming! I purchased it at my local Target for $79.99 for convenience in case I had to return it -- with all of the mixed reviews out there, I was incredibly weary of choosing one! However, I will most likely not need to do so. It is perfect for all of my needs!

PROS:
1. Incredibly easy to use! Directions and trouble-shooting pages in manual are simple and helpful.
2. Compact size, looks nice sitting on the counter.
3. Easy clean-up. All parts that need to be cleaned detach easily.
4. A standard sized coffee cup will fit under the spout -- not so with many models!
5. The steam feature is simple, fairly powerful, and works well. No problems here.
6. As long as you get a good batch of coffee grounds, this machine can turn it into delicious espresso!

CONS:
1. I have been experiencing a small leak onto my counter after use. I haven't caught it in the act yet, but if I return to the kitchen a few hours later, there is a wet spot near the machine. I read another review that mentioned the same thing, so it might be a universal issue with this product. However, it is a small leak, and not enought to cause a real problem in my opinion.
2. I would suggest making 2-3 cups before wasting any milk product on your first trial. This model does not have an automatic drip feature and you will need to manually tell it when to stop pouring. If you are not used to this, you might end up with a few nasty batches on your first try. No biggie. Just watch the color of the drip. It starts out as a medium brown, and changes to a much lighter brown if left alone. I would recommend shutting it off a second or so after it changes to the lighter brown. I have made perfect batches every time by this method. This all takes place over several seconds, so keep an eye out.

YOU MIGHT NEED TO KNOW:
It mentions this in the manual, but make sure to get the right size of grounds. About the consistency of salt. I would recommend griding your own either at home with a grinder or at the store at a grinding station. They taste better for one, and you won't waste your money on a mystery bag that doesn't work well with your machine.

Also, it does not come with a frothing pitcher. You will need to buy one separately. I purchased mine at Bed Bath and Beyond -- a Krups one, stainless, about $10? It fits fine. Just make sure you don't get one that is too deep, or the froth wand will not reach the milk. It is a countertop model after all. If you don't want to use as much milk you can turn the pitcher at an angle.

That's it! Definitely more pros than cons. I feel that for the price I paid, I could not have hoped for a better quality machine. I would highly recommend this model if you want something easy and you don't require tons of frills. If you want something more frilly, go ahead and spend $300 to $3000 on one. But I purchased an espresso maker to SAVE time and money (so long, Starbucks!), and this one's just right for me!

Mr. Coffee FTX41 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, Stainless Steel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)You would think by now the Mr. Coffee folks would know how to make a coffee maker, but this one was apparently designed by people who have never brewed a cup of coffee in their lives.

If the carafe isn't in just the right position, you wake up to a puddle of coffee on yourr counter and floor. Unfortunately, I cannot tell what the right position is--it just overflows randomly.

As if that wasn't bad enough, the clock display is right above the carafe. As the coffee brews, the steam infiltrates the clock and fills it full of condensation, making it very difficult to read. After a few months of this, the clock quits working altogether and you cannot set a delayed brew. You read correctly: this coffeemaker kills it's own clock!

I will NEVER buy a Mr. Coffee product again.

Mr. Coffee 8-Cup Thermal Programmable Coffeemaker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Ok, I have owned thermal coffee makers before, so I am used to how they work. If you have any issues with the lid, read the manual and do not complain about it. These reviews about how the lid is not easy to work and that the coffee spills all over is purely based on people who are lazy, and/or do not follow directions. If you simply close the lid all the way before you brew, NOTHING will spill and all of the coffee will go into the carafe. Also, if you need extremely hot coffee when you drink it, then preheat the carafe with hot water before you brew the coffee. If not, your coffee will still be pretty hot, but not scalding like normal warming plate coffee makers. By the way, warming plate coffee makers always overcook the coffee and make it stale 99% of the time. I prefer a bit less hot coffee where the taste is still in tact. The coffee tastes wonderful in this coffee maker, and is just as good as most of the $100 to $199 coffee makers. This thing is very compact, and not as tall as other thermal coffee makers. The brew process is slower than other coffee makers, but this is how it should be. You want the full flavor of the coffee, not just a hint of it with boiling water added. Not all things need to be so expedient. Waiting for a nice cup of brewed coffee in this machine is worth it. But if you cannot wait and need it right away, set the timer and wake up to hot coffee waiting for your drinking enjoyment.

So in a nutshell, if you have never owned a thermal coffee maker, read the directions. If you have problems with the lid or the temperature not being 2000 degrees Fahrenheit, don't buy it. However, if you are not a lazy person, am able to wait 5 minutes instead of 2, and know how to line up arrows on a lid......this coffee maker is for you!

I love this coffee maker, and it does an excellent job. The coffee is very robust and flavorful. The machine is very quiet, and works exactly as it is supposed to. The temperature of the coffee is very hot, and is still quite hot after adding a refrigerated creamer to it. I have no qualms with this machine, and the price is perfect for what you get. Please take this review for what it is worth, for I am a very educated coffee consumer. I have owned numerous coffee machines, and this is right up there with the best of them. No, I do not work for Mr. Coffee is case you were wondering :-)

Mr. Coffee ECM21 4-Shot Espresso Machine and 8-Cup Coffeemaker Combo, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this coffee maker a few weeks ago, and I enjoyed many good coffees since. I am Italian, and I find the espresso as good as a good espresso prepared with a moka. This is good enough for me, but don't expect a REALLY good espresso, the kind you can have in that special little bar in a hidder corner of an Italian city. I did not have any trouble with leaks anywhere, so far (as some reviewer complained about). Only small complain, the espesso sometimes has a "metallic" flavor coming from the high temperatures reached by the water container. But no big deal, overall I am happy I purchased this product so far.

P.S. I posted the review in May 2007 and I am writing this PS one year later, in April 2008. The machine still works perfectly, with no leaks. I have also used the milk frother several times, and it makes a pretty good cappuccino! Maybe I should upgrade my rating to 5 stars!

P.P.S. In February 2009, everything still works fine!

P.P.P.S. In August 2010, this appliance is still working great. Indeed I have updated my rating from 4 to 5 stars.

Product Description:
Ideal for entertaining or everyday use, this convenient two-in-one appliance can brew up to 8 cups of coffee or up to 4 cups of espresso at the same time.

The unit's dishwasher-safe glass carafe and removable drip tray make cleanup a snap. A measuring scoop is included. The espresso/coffee machine measures approximately 10 by 12 by 11 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Mr. Coffee ECM20 Steam Espresso Maker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have read so many negative reviews of this wonderful little moka machine, I must put in my 2 cents. First, this is a stream machine, meaning it makes moka not espresso. If you like Bialetti but want cappuccino instead of cafe latte, then this is perfect. The grind must be close to espresso, finer than for Bialetti, and you must tamp it down, but no tamper included. There is only 1 knob, yes it is stiff, but i don't have arthritis. The round design makes it easy to handle even though it is very light. It descales with...vinegar! How about that, actually a traditional machine. The panarello works, just put in extra "cup" of water for steaming. Make 2 "cups", not 1 or 4, and always start with cold machine, or use very, very cold water. Stop the brewing as soon as moka hits 2 "cups" or it starts to steam instead of brew, then switch the knob to steam for the milk. If you don't, coffee will taste slightly burned. I have owned espresso and moka machines from USD5 to USD1,000 over a period of 40 years. If you like moka, don't waste money on anything more expensive. But, like any machine, read the manual, and experiment if things don't work the way you want. Finally, garbage in garbage out. If you want great cappuccino, use good organic coffee and organic milk.

Mr. Coffee CGX7 5-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We bought this 5-cup coffeemaker in September 2009 because we were unable to find a 4-cup replacement carafe at Wal-Mart and ordering one on-line cost as much as a new 4 or 5-cup maker.The new 5-cup coffeemaker worked well until January 2010 when we started experiencing what we assumed were power interruptions because the time and timer had to be reset 2 or 3 or more times a day.A "short" time later (pun intended), the display itself became fainter AND the coffeemaker would in fact lose power(shut off), sometimes right in the middle of making a new batch.
We are not heavy coffee drinkers, making only 1 batch per day.We assume the problems occurred because the buttons for the clock and timer are located just below where the carafe sits where either water or coffee is bound to seep into the button contacts, causing these problems.
One more thing.The last Mr. Coffee we owned didn't have the metal band around the bottom of the carafe.This new one does and, when you fill the carafe with water, some gets "trapped" in the steel band until you go to pour it in the coffeemaker reservoir and then it dribbles out on the counter.

Mr. Coffee BVMC-KG1 Single Serve Brewing System, Silver Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Back in June of 2009, Keurig announced a partnership with Mr. Coffee, as well as Cuisinart.The Cuisinart partnership created a premium line of Keurig brew machines.The Mr. Coffee BVMC-KG1 looks to catch the interest of the more cost-conscious consumer.

PROS:
- Quick
- Easy
- No mess
- Good value (for a Keurig)

CONS:
- Higher cost for coffee using K-Cups
- Higher up-front cost of coffee maker

I was a heavy coffee drinker in college and at my first office job but have otherwise been a casual java drinker since.I had owned coffee machines in the past but typically went the route of the Peet's, Starbucks, Caribou, etc.It was easier, more social, and usually tasted better.Going through the motions with a coffee maker at home was an arduous task, which often resulted in me having to throw away many bags of coffee due to expiration.Then came Mr. Coffee and Keurig technology.

Upon opening the box, I saw a clearly illustrated Quick Start guide that took me through the process of using K-Cups in the machine.It did however, leave out that you should run a cycle with just water before first use.I scanned the manual for a few minutes, ran the prep cycle then brewed my first K-Cup coffee, ever.It turned out just fine.I was AMAZED at how quickly it brewed.I would say it took me about 5 minutes from start to sip.

Afterwards, I just opened the brewer compartment to remove the used K-Cup and tossed it in the trash.No filter to deal with or carafe to clean.Quick to brew and easy to clean!Now, eventually you will need to clean out the parts to remove scaling and such, but depending on your use, I'd guess once a week would suffice.

The Mr. Coffee BVMC-KG1 is a no frills, personal 8-ounce single-cup brew machine.It is similar to the Keurig-branded mini brewer.The water reservoir is very small and just enough to brew your 8 ounce cup.The brewer compartment, where you insert the K-Cup, reminds me a little of an old cassette player.It opens up and you place the K-Cup inside and it accepts it for use.Then there's the drip tray that removes for easy dumping and cleaning.There are only 3 indicator lights.The first, surrounds the "Brew Now/Off" button and blinks softly when you press it to indicate the machine is working.The second light, "Heating" lets you know that it is heating up the water.The third indicator light, "Brewing", shows that the coffee is being brewed.When the coffee is finished, the "Brew Now/Off" button turns off and the machine is ready to be run again.

My only hesitation in recommending the machine goes for all single-serve pod-based coffee machines.Cost.The intial cost is usually pretty high when compared to a normal coffee maker and cost per K-Cup can be quite high relative to using normal bags of ground coffee.However, if you are looking at these systems, then what you are after is probably convenience, not a cheap cup of coffee.In that case, I believe the Mr. Coffee BVMC-KG1 is a great addition to your home or office.

(More customer reviews)INITIAL REVIEW:
First: I give this four stars as the fifth will be earned if it holds up for awhile (will follow up this post when it's time)- so many items these days seem to crap out after only a few months (my water heater's still kicking and it's 43 years old!).
Second: We were beholden to Krups and replaced our old manual (no timer) unit w/ a Krups FMF5-14.Had it four months and the first time it was subjected to a spill, it fried the electronics (placed at the base of the unit).Replaced with Mr. Coffee BVMC-PSTX91 a month ago and we've been impressed.
Third: Pros-Coffee comes out at approx. 185 degrees, brews very fast, carafe is well insulated and simple to use, electronics placed on top, simple programming features, self-cleaning program, cord storage & good looks for stainless folks. Cons (not many)-the carafe needs to be cleaned with a bottle brush due to small opening (no biggie), the water reservoir lid is a little sticky sometimes, the coffee receptacle needs a little extra rogering due to the extra filter lid (which can be removed if you want) and if you don't use filtered water to start with, you'll need to replace filters into said lid periodically.Pretty minor stuff.
Fourth: I am confident that this will be a five star general and look forward to following up this post.
PS: who knew that buying a decent coffee maker could be such a chore!This is my first item review, ever - felt it was time to pay back all those who've I've benefitted from all these years. Enjoy!
UPDATE: It's been two months and to our disappointment, this product has not performed at a five-star level due to two problems: the carafe leaks internally and then when pouring, 'fermented' coffee comes out via the seam between the black plastic collar and lower stainless portion.We initially thought we were pouring too fast, but close inspection revealed the problem.The carafe was never put in the dishwasher and had normal, daily use for two months.Second, the water reservoir has a small plastic tab on top of it that holds it in the machine.When carefully closing the sometimes-sticky lid (previously mentioned), it came down too fast for this tab and snapped it off.The water reservoir still works, but we propped it against the wall to ensure it didn't fall off the machine.
When informed of these issues, Mr. Coffee offered to send a brand new unit out at no cost, but they were out of stock.They sent instead a holdover machine that's ours to keep and instructed us to call them again in 3 weeks to see if the unit's back in stock.Why they are unable to simply automatically send one when it becomes available is unknown, but they are attempting to make it right, which is welcome.I can only hope the new machine is free of these problems, if and when it arrives.For now, no five-star review from this consumer.What a shame.
FINAL UPDATE:
Well, Mr. Coffee eventually sent me a replacement unit (after I waited 5 weeks and had to call them to get it sent).This replacement lasted about four days and then would use 1/2 the water in the reservoir for coffee, dumping the remaining 1/2 all over the counter.I gave up.What a disappointment.I took Mr. Coffee out of the loop and was able to return the unit to a local retailer for store credit.Lastly, I have to agree with others who have said the coffee is watery.It's like that because of the maker's advertised brewing speed.Coffee can't steep properly, even when using 3 filters.We've resurrected an old, trusty Krups and the search continues.

Product Description:
With its sleek modern design and stainless accents, this 10-cup thermal coffeemaker not only looks great on the kitchen counter, but it also brews hotter and faster (10 cups in less than eight minutes) than the average coffeemaker, ensuring thorough extraction and full-bodied flavor. Its 10-cup stainless-steel vacuum-insulated carafe keeps the last cup as hot and fresh-tasting as the first for hours, plus it provides a comfortable-grip stay-cool handle and a drip-free spout for graceful serving. Even more, the small appliance offers 24-hour programmability, which makes it possible to wake up to the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee or to have a pot ready and waiting to serve with dessert--no need to get up from the table half way through dinner. For those less-than-leisurely mornings or for those just a little less patient when it comes to enjoying that first sip, the coffeemaker's brew-pause function suspends the brewing cycle to allow for pouring a quick cup midbrew. Other highlights include audible ready signals, a removable water reservoir, water filtration that removes 97-percent of chlorine from the water for better-tasting coffee, a special cleaning cycle, and cord storage to keep counters looking tidy. The coffeemaker measures approximately 22-2/7 by 13-1/5 by 17 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
