This review is from: Black & Decker DCM675BMT 5-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker with Carafe, Black/StainlessIt is the size I wanted. Great design. Attractive and compact. I wanted a break resistant carafe (so my kids can do the dishes). The carafe is well built and is lightweight. I too was concerned that it is not a thermal insulated carafe but it turns out that is not needed since it sits on a "Keep Hot" warming plate. Though it is not listed on the outside of the box, it does indeed automatically shut off after 2 hours as described in the instructions. The clock and programmable timer are simple to set up. Best of all it brews hot delicious coffee!...This review is from: Black & Decker DCM675BMT 5-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker with Carafe, Black/StainlessI bought this after being disappointed when an $80 Cuisinart died after 2 years of service. After purchasing and returning a DeLonghi which produced luke-warm coffee, I decided to run out and just buy this cheap "value" coffee maker instead of dropping $100 for a decent one.Pros:* Water is Hot* Coffee brews fast (if that's what you're looking for)* Coffee quality is unoffensive, yet boringCons:* Carafe is stainless, but thin. Definitely not insulated.* Fit and finish of materials is poor - very cheap plastics and clear vinyl cover over buttons.* While water is hot (an ESSENTIAL element in good coffee), the basket design has nothing to slow the water down and let it actually brew with the ground coffee. This makes for a fine, but unexciting cup of coffee.Summary - I got about what I expected for $25. If you are looking for great coffee, look elsewhere....This review is from: Black & Decker DCM675BMT 5-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker with Carafe, Black/StainlessI love this 5-cup coffeemaker. This is the first Black & Decker coffeemaker that I have ever owned. I was a die-hard Mr. Coffee user until I tried this little 5-cup from Black & Decker. First of all it brews a superb cup of coffee. The stainless steel carafe is a money saver, in that you don't have to worry about it breaking or cracking. The stainless steel carafe is thin, but it is durable, and it does keep the coffee hot while on the "keep hot plate." It's programmable, and it shuts off after two hours. I use the 8-12 cup size paper filters in the filter basket and they fit perfect. The silver and black color goes well with the decor of my kitchen. I've been drinking coffee for almost 40 years, and I would definitely recommend the 5-cup Black & Decker coffeemaker to anyone who loves a good "cup of joe."...
