Cons: Plastic parts provide potential points of failure.

Cons: None, I don't have any problems

Review: To begin with, we have a 10-12 cup Hamilton Beach, the kind where it brews and you place your cup next to it, pushing the cup into the button to dispense it. Why did I buy this one? Because my husband is the kind of coffee drinker who likes his coffee ...

Pros: Makes great coffee Steel carafe won't break

Cons: No exterior water level indicator

Review: I bought this coffee maker after getting fed up with a cheap Mr. Coffee 4-cup that took forever to make a weak cup of lukewarm coffee. I couldn't be more pleased with this machine; it makes a great cup of coffee. The steel pot is also a nice touch for ...

Pros: Great taste produced.

Cons: Feels flimsy.

Review: I have had a mr.coffee for years and when it exploded I needed a new maker. I got this little flimsy maker for $30 and was nervous when I first used it, but THE FIRST USE WAS DELICIOUS, better then I ever have made with other machines. It is flimsy and ...

Pros: Decent little coffee maker.

Cons: kinda drippy  :(

The Bottom Line: Decent little coffee maker, makes good coffee.

Review: Well, our old Krups one cup coffee maker finally bit the dust. (It had lasted us for an unbelievable 14 years!) We bit the bullet and bought this cute little Cuisinart DCC-450BK four cup coffee maker. There are several things I like about ...

Cons: Product feels plastic-like and cheap. The lid of the carafe does not stay on properly.

The Bottom Line: Face it, this product is $30.00 or less. It makes outstandingly, lovely coffee. Sure it feels cheap, but it looks great, and functions well.

Review: I received this product as a Christmas gift this year. I was really excited by the bright red colour, and the fabulous looking stainless steel carafe. However, when I opened the box I was slightly disappointed by how plastic-like it felt. The product ...
