Terrible engineering and terrible product. * Set on the carafe's lid without completely snapping it into place (easy to do), then coffee fills up and grounds overflow into the reservoir: Broken coffee maker.
If grounds spill into the water reservoir, they will clog up and break this coffee maker. Bad bad bad.
* Put in the filter slightly off center (easy to do), then coffee fills up and grounds overflow into reservoir: Broken coffee maker. It can't be repaired.
It's remarkably easy for you to break this coffee maker: * Put in the carafe slightly off center (easy to do), then coffee doesn't brew into the carafe, but instead fills up the filter and grounds overflow into the reservoir: Broken coffee maker. This is my second of the same coffee maker that was destroyed by coffee grounds.
Buy something else but cheap and usable.
The coffee maker is fast, produces an very good hot cup of coffee. I bought this coffee maker after reading the reviews on amazon and consumers report. I am happy to report I agree with all of the good comments. The lid does not drip on the counter if you open it all the way. I would purchase this machine again.
The best suggestion I have is to place your coffee maker on an open part of your counter. By the way, you are sure to spill a little water when filling the tank.
I had noted in other reviews it was awkward to add water. I purchased this after some investigation.
It is frankly nearly impossible (at best) to read without positioning the coffee maker in exactly the right light level. Frankly, I was not prepared by how inconvenient it really is to add water to the tank without positioning the coffee maker very carefully.
There is a gauge inside the water tank so you know how much water to add. Add coffee after filling or you will spill the water all over the fresh coffee grounds.The coffee maker does everything else perfectly.
If you want to use it under your wall mounted cabinets you will have to move it around all the time.This is a great coffee maker with some poor ergonomics.
We purchased this coffee maker approx 1 month ago, make coffee 1 to 2 times a day, and have been extremely satisfied. My fiancee likes her coffee hot, hot, hot and this coffee maker allows her to adjust the temperature. It's easy to use and easy to clean.We HIGHLY reccommend this product.
None of these things were a problem in our all-white, inexpensive Mr. Unless you have a light source directly above the coffeemaker, you cannot see at what level you have poured the water.
It makes great coffee, but there are a few design flaws that are irritating. We bought the all-black model DCC-1200.
Likewise, the all black, inside and out, makes it difficult to know when you have poured the correct quantity of water into the reservoir. First, it's LCD clock is almost impossible to read.
The black coffeemaker, with a black rim around the clock, makes reading the time very difficult, without a backlight, which should have been included in the design. Finally, the position of the water reservoir, as has been mentioned in other reviews, is in the back, and is small and awkward to use.
Coffee.
