2 orders, both defective. Identical problem.

The 1st pot had an issue with the PM light turning off at different times, causing the time to change to AM. I even had a cup of coffee at 8pm instead of the next morning. Asked for a replacement, same thing. I suspect that Mr. Coffey sent an incorrect shipment to Revain. I can't believe 2 different coffee pots with the same problem is a coincidence. Revain is doing its part and has emailed shipping labels for returns.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Everything is fine

The clock is not running

The clock is running forward, a minute is not a minute, more like 30-45 seconds. This renders useless the programmable feature I bought this machine for. I set it up in the afternoon and realized around noon that the time was wrong. I thought I messed something up since it was my first time and reinstalled it. This morning I woke up to the smell of coffee brewed two hours ahead of schedule. At 7:03 the coffee pot showed 9:27. I drink a cup of coffee and watch the minutes pass. So disappointed!

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Expensive insurance

Headaches: Coffee Makers

I am returning the unit after hours of trying to get it working. The one page owner's manual is a joke and the website doesn't list my car model. I called Mr. Coffee and they were closed. I called Revain and they helped arrange a replacement before I decided I didn't need this machine. I don't want to risk further escalation. The brewing function does not work later. The colon between the numbers on the clock continues to flash. Constantly behaves as if the power had gone out. I've spent an…

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Not as good as advertised

AVOID THIS MODEL. READ REVIEWS.

I use Mr. Coffee is 45 years old and they have always brewed good coffee without any problems, so I never thought to read reviews about this model. I liked the modern style, the easy to use clock/timer and the LED display. I set it up and set the clock and timer, taking care. to the evening light. I got up the next morning for a hot cup of coffee and found the coffee maker wouldn't start, so I started it manually. (The delay function worked until the end of the week) I turned it off before…

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Great for the price

I have this coffee maker back to replace my old Mr. I knew it was a cheaper version so wasn't expecting the same quality, but I immediately noticed how cheap and plasticky it felt compared to my old one. Feels very "cheap". However, I was glad that I could drain the water into a large tank and not have to pour it down a small hole like my old one. I kept spilling water on my counter when trying, so that was a big plus for me. The only complaint I have, other than how cheap it looks and feels…

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Volume

Houston we have a problem

The 1 star I gave was only because there isn't a lower rating. Should be -5. It's 2021 and mankind has forgotten how to make a working programmable coffee pot. Folks, this is not a complicated device. This is a simple coffee maker with a clock and brew timer. How can a manufacturer screw everything up in 2021? Well they did. The clock cannot keep up with the times and advances one minute every 35 seconds. This renders the timer completely unusable. I googled this model and found very bad…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • A little torn

incomplete instructions - brew later

Used Mr Coffee for decades but it was white and bad looking. However, it still works fine. Bought this black one. Could not get Brew Later to work. There are no instructions attached, just a piece of paper. It has a QR code that takes you to a page with 96 (seriously) 12 mug makers. Not even alphabetically. And that's not there. Support responded after 34 minutes of sweet music. Super nice girl. She couldn't understand either. She emailed me the correct manual (PC12_19ESM1(Target).pdf). I…

Pros
  • Absolutely Amazing!
Cons
  • For old

Good basic coffee maker

One morning before work I found that my old coffee maker was broken and decided to quickly buy a new one. Either as a temporary replacement or replacement. This one was affordable, allowed me to program it later, and had a reusable filter. Those were the specific things I was looking for. I have had no issues with this coffee maker since using it and I plan to use it to the last drop. I love that it has such a large water chamber. Not only makes it easier to fill with water, but also to clean…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Approximately

Makes a delicious cup of coffee

Our one year old Mr. Coffee recently passed away. Internal short that could not be repaired. Dissatisfied with his early death, I replaced him with Black and Decker. Big mistake! Made terrible coffee. After a few morning rehearsals my wife and I started drinking tea and I returned to Revain to try again. After a long search, I'm back with an updated Mr. Coffee. It was more expensive than our first but had some better features. It has two large buttons to control the functions of the pot. Much…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Anything I can add
