Review on ☕ BLACK+DECKER Single Serve Coffee Maker, Black, CM618 by Alyssa Bell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great with Smart Plug if you know the trick!

I am writing this review mainly for people who want to know if this works with a smart socket. There is a lot of misinformation in the question and answer, but I bought it to see if it works for myself. And it is. Here's the trick. One button - It's just a switch (no shutdown) but it will activate even when the machine is unplugged. Because of this, people write reviews saying that the device turns on automatically when they plug it in for the first time. The switch was probably pressed during shipping or installation. So using it with a smart plug is very easy. When adding water and coffee (probably the night before like mine) just press the power button (on the coffee maker) when the smart plug is off. As soon as the smart plug turns on (assuming the next morning), the coffee maker will recognize the switch is on and start brewing. It makes a cup of coffee as good as my Cuisinart, but I need something that works with a smart switch. to hasten my morning. It works great so far!
