Summary: Doesn't last 2008-08-10
Comment: We bought this pot based on the Consumer Reports recommendation. Major mistake. It looks cheap, and takes forever to brew a cup of coffee. But the major issue is that it doesn't hold up. We've had it 6 months, and the metal plate has rusted out (it's not our water, we use filtered). The lid on the carafe is ready to break - you have to take it off to clean and it's only connected by little plastic hinges. I'm going to have to get a new coffee maker. I'm going back to Braun, and the experience has eroded my confidence in Consumer Reports. Amazon reviews seem much more reliable.

Summary: Excellent Coffee 2008-06-22
Comment: This coffee maker works better than the Braun that we had before. Coffee is nicely hot and flavor is excellent using Kirkland Columbian. My only wish is that the outside water level indicator be easier to read.

Summary: doesn't make a mess 2008-04-28
Comment: I love this simple little coffee pot. I have been using this model for years primarily because it is simple and doesn't have much to go wrong with it. I became tired of pots with timers that stop working and make the pot unusable. It makes great coffee and it pours perfectly and does not dribble on the counter. It makes twelve cups of coffee in less than five minutes.

Summary: A no nonsense brewer. 2008-04-20
Comment: This is a brewer that's reasonably quick, makes a great pot of coffee and doesn't dribble all over the place when you pour from the first to last cup. If you want a pot without all the gizmos, this is it! Well worth the money and from a brand with a great reputation. Five stars for sure.

Summary: Five months, Five Days 2008-04-06
Comment: About the B&D DCM2000-PT 12 Cup Coffeemaker:
This isn't an inspiring product but, like you, I was ecstatic about the price, and I thought it would get the job done. It worked brilliantly for five months and five days. I loved everything about it...until this morning, when I loaded it, turned the power on, and it did nothing (at least the red power light was still working before I disposed of the unit, and red is my favorite color). If you do purchase this product, there's always the possibility that your unit will last six months, in which case, your out-of-pocket expenses will be about $3.33 per month + the cost of the actually coffee (creamers and sweetening agents not included). If the manufacturer of this product would like to send me a replacement unit free of charge, I wouldn't be opposed to it (Amazon has my shipping address).
About All Drip Coffee Makers Under $50.00:
Which ever drip unit you end up getting, I do strongly recommend that you use Organic Mexican Coffee, because it's good and the ground beans seem to like the basket filters; they just sit there and absorb the hot water trickling in. I once had some really bad coffee from a drip unit under $50. I bought it years ago. It was a faithful friend, until it died. It lasted longer than the B&D DCM2000-PT 12 Cup Coffeemaker. I don't remember how long exactly. I don't remember the brand. But, let me tell you this, theses machines do not like bad coffee. I cannot be responsible if you like to use bad coffee. I am not saying that you have to spend a fortune on coffee -I buy gourmet coffee for $3/lb.--I'm just saying that the most generic stuff known to man tends to irk these machines. As I was saying, before I so rudely interrupted myself, I once had very bad coffee from a drip unit under $50. I was in a rush and I just happened to have some Folgers Morning Blend, or some such thing, I made it, and oh boy. The machine hissed and spat and made my coffee with too much grind... Well, to be honest, I might have put a little too much coffee in the basket, but that was never a problem before. The really embarrassing thing that day, is that I had guests, and they were so nice, didn't complain about the burnt coffee full of chunks. I remember that day vividly, the ex-wife of my former production manager at the trophy shop Blane was there, and she went into the kitchen and made a fresh pot of coffee. She's so resourceful and knows me well. She brought her own little bag or Organic Mexican Coffee, and I have never used anything else since. Needless to say, the party was saved.
