Pretty good Jul 23, 2010
Bought this coffeemaker about two weeks ago for my office and am really enjoying it. Pros: AFFORDABLE, small size, can use almost any regular size mug or disposable cup, uses pods or loose coffee, has permanent filter, brews pretty fast and coffee is hot, automatically turns off. Cons: a little too noisy for the office but it's not on very long, can't find any pods except for Senseo and Folgers in the grocery store - everything else is cups or disks so I'll have to order some online ([...] is an awesome website for pod and other info btw), the included mug isn't all that great - the plastic is rough in some places and the handle and lid are flimsy/cheap - but I use my own mug anyway so not really an issue. Just a note, the cord is VERY short...only about 23 inches so if you have it on your desk, you'll need an extension cord. Overall I'm very happy with it. Loving my one cup of afternoon coffee!

Good item. I've used mine several times and it works just super. I use it for coffee and tea. I put a tea bag on bottom of cup and let hot water run over it. When water is all, tea is done.
Good quality.

bought my third one; nice mechanical upgrades to address imperfections Jul 13, 2010
This is my first Amazon product review, and I am an avid Amazon buyer. I am taking this time because this is my third Black and Decker single cup coffee brewer, and I wanted to acknowledge the enhancements.
The previous was okay but had issues. Overall I liked it and used it alot, and took a chance buying the new one, hoping they had addressed some of the issues. To the manufacturer's credit, they have.
I've always liked the reusable filter, the ease of use, and the integrated 'to go' cup. But the previous model tended to splash coffee grounds around the filter and upper mechanical assembly indiscriminately, due to the hot drip water causing splashing of the grounds. Messy and hard to easily clean. The new model addresses this issue with an integrated, internal hinged top that easily drops over and seals the ground coffee/drip chamber. No more mess, and also a more consistent, better cup of coffee.
I rate it a 4 because 'nothing is perfect' and also because coffee does tend to drip for 30-60 seconds after brewing is 'complete,' which I address by either waiting, or by sticking a cup under to catch the last drops for a minute or two.
Great for the semi Jul 13, 2010
It is small & compact. Only thing we wish it had a way to snap the cup into place instead of just sitting on the bottom plate.
Now we can have fresh coffee anytime while we are driving out west. :)

My husband TOTALLY loves this for his office. For two years now, he has occasionally said, "Have I told you how much I love my coffeemaker?" Buy it as a gift and be a hero.
