Review on ☕ White 4-Cup Coffee Maker: Mr. Coffee DR4-RB by Rob Overturf

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Just right for two, two cups

I have owned this model for more than two years. This is a $20 coffee maker and I didn't expect it to last and work well BUT IT HAS TO BE. If you're cooking a full pot, you'll end up with a slightly messy hob area as heated water is pumped across the bottom. It squirts in there a little, but not enough to squirt between the lid and the top of the brew basket. I don't usually use more than 2 teaspoons and everything works fine. You'll get splatters if you fill it all the way to the brim. Also plastic parts are just plastic, they heat up and become brittle over time, but the first thing to do is model the pump. As I said, I've been using mine daily for two years and the pump just got stuck yesterday. I really can't complain. If you clean this machine regularly and don't handle it roughly, you'll probably be happy with the result. In this price range I have nothing to complain about.

Pros
  • Useful not only for its intended purpose
Cons
  • Sad technology
