☕️ Black+Decker 12-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker CM1160B, Black/Stainless Steel Review

What do I need? - a good cup of HOT coffee. It is so easy. The coffee maker itself is "cheaper" in the way it's made, but if you're a coffee snob like me, all you need is a good cup of HOT coffee. This pot brewed my coffee at 197.9 degrees = EXCELLENT = I got a very good cup of HOT coffee. Couldn't ask for more. If you need a coffee pot for its "looks" or perfect features, look elsewhere. If you want to have a delicious cup of hot coffee and also save €100, buy this coffee maker.

I've been using this type (not this brand) of drip coffee makers for many, many years, so I know how they work. BUT, this coffee maker is very delicate. I get paranoia and obsessive-compulsive disorder because of the question "can I do it tomorrow morning?" I will NOT set it to auto brew due to its unreliability. So I turn it on when I get up and stand there to make sure it's working properly. This morning I didn't wait and look at it. and it didn't work. That's why I'm writing this review…

We thought we could use this for a coffee pot in the shared office, but it didn't work. The product came in the original packaging, the lid is broken in the hinge area on the lid. The "loop" was so weak it seemed like it wouldn't survive anyway. I thought it was okay and decided to try to leave. The water diffuser is connected to the top of the lid and is the worst design I've seen. Not to mention that every attempt at brewing tasted like plastic chemicals. Even if the pot has a 2 hour warm-up…

I have had this type of coffee maker from Black & Decker and other companies for 20 years. This is a very traditional plastic coffee maker that does exactly what you think it will. WITH A FATAL MISTAKE. Water drips into the grinder FASTER than coffee drips into the pot from below. This is not user error, a misplaced coffee pot, or a misaligned basket. It's just a simple and annoying design flaw. Therefore, every time you make coffee with this coffee maker, the basket of ground coffee and…

Very very VERY disappointed and upset. Today is only my 3rd day owning this coffee maker and therefore my 3rd time using it. Both times it was fantastic! But for some reason the water doesn't go away today. The pot was on for 8 minutes and nothing dripped in at all and this is the second batch I'm trying. I've tried turning off the kettle, draining the water and refilling. I also checked that the filter wasn't blown off and that the basket was in the correct position. I'm at a dead end. If I've

Finally, an easy to use and affordable coffee maker for those of us who are tired of expensive, short-lived coffee makers. The display is not too bright at night and very easy to read during the day. The programming buttons are simple and very easy to use for people prone to technology problems (spouse). Today there was a power outage and it took less than a minute for the coffee maker to return to its previous programmed state. The last time I had a power cut with my previous expensive coffee…

Update: This is the worst coffee pot I've ever had. Now something is wrong with the basket (it actually started a few months ago) and it takes an HOUR to make half a coffee pot even though I poured a full cup of water in it. I bought it in April and haven't been able to use it since July. As it has been more than 30 days since purchase, I have been referred to Black & Decker for warranty service. Or should I say lack of service. They demanded that I cut the cord and mail it to them with a check

REVIEW WITH FIXES Ours still works great. Unfortunately you can't get it for 20€ anymore. I wanted to address some of the negative feedback and offer a solution to a type of issue that some people have noticed. Some reviews say it's noisy; this is not my experience. I find it makes no more noise than countless previous coffee makers of many brands we've owned. And as far as I can tell, the coffee doesn't have an unpleasant taste due to the plastic used. Some have found that the paper filter…
