Mr. Coffee® 5-Cup Mini Brew Switch Coffee Maker, Black

Arrived so quickly. It arrived 2-3 hours after i ordered it which was great because my current coffee maker suddenly quit working that same morning. It was a Mr. Coffee 12-cup that lasted for 13 years so I figured that i got my money's worth. So I thought I would go with Mr. Coffee brand again. Anyway, this time I decided to try the 5-cup because I no longer need a 12-cup as I now live alone. I've only had it for 3 days but so far I love it. It works great. I don't like warm coffee and this little coffee makes makes hot coffee, but not too hot to burn you. It stays hot until you turn it off. It is not programmable but that is not a feature that I'm crazy about anyway. The handle on the carafe isn't too small, just the right size. The carafe has a wide opening which makes it easy to clean and the glass carafe is just the same glass as a 12-cup, only smaller. The basket uses the 7" filters which I was already using in my old unit so I didn't have to buy new ones. I don't like the cone filters and I'm glad this one doesn't require them. I especially like that it doesn't take up as much counter space because I have a small kitchen and don't have much counter space to spare. It doesn't brew as fast as a large coffee maker but that is no problem for me. I turn it on when I get up, then go get dressed. By the time i get back to the kitchen, it is finished. It does have the pause feature if you are in a hurry. So far, I'm very pleased with this little coffee maker and don't share any of the negative reviews. I did run plain water through the unit before making my first pot of coffee to clean it through and through. There was no bad plastic smell, no smell of any kind, and no bad taste of any kind from my first brew of coffee as others have mentioned. I don't grind my own coffee beans but I use Folgers pre-ground coffee, so i don't know anything about grinding your own beans and how this would be any different. i know some people are really picky about that kind of stuff, but I am not. I am more concerned about convenience. If you like stronger coffee, just add more grounds or less water, or both as there is no adjustment on this unit to make the coffee stronger or weaker. As I have only had it for 3 days, I don't know anything about the lifespan of this unit, but so far, I am very pleased and loving the little coffee maker. I will update the review if it doesn't last long. It is perfect for small kitchens, dorm rooms, etc., and is very light wright. It looks just like a 12-cup coffee maker, only smaller, without lots of bells and whistles- just a basic coffee maker. ( I've had 2 Keurigs in the past and neither one lasted more than a year- too expensive to keep replacing every year. I won't buy anymore of those) This little unit is perfect for me. Glad I found it and hope it last a long time.

Hey, It's a Mr. Coffee. I bought this for my 80 year old mother because of the simplicity of operation. She loves it and it brews an excellent cup of coffee. However, the one I bought for myself is a self grinder, espresso, and everything else Coffee. That cost 1k. My mothers was very affordable and makes her happy. ___ Buy what you can afford and what suits your taste ;) Cheers.

Perfect small size for the camper and inverter! Use small cone filters, quick coffee for 2 with no fuss or muss or having to “pour method” while camping. So good!

This coffee maker is fine, sure. It is flimsy plastic but durable enough for my purposes. But I want to know WHY and how it is so loud while being so small and unassuming? What laws of science were broken to create something so small yet so LOUD???

No need to purchase expensive coffee pods: use paper filters or buy a reusable mesh filter. I fill the water reservoir to the 5 cup mark, which is the maximum. This produces approximately 25 ounces ounces of coffee in about 7 minutes. I get two large mugs of coffee, which is perfect for me. The compact size takes up minimal counter space.

Surprisingly decent cup of coffee from an affordable coffee maker. Nothing dazzling but sufficient for a small pot. Easier to fill with water than my former Krups and probably a better cup of coffee. Unremarkable build quality but it gets the job done without issue. Reusable filter that I bought in addition to this maker is also affordable and has functioned as intended but that’s another review.

I actually like this coffee pot. It is easy to use and makes good coffee. However, I am not a coffee drinker and do not use it.. I bought it for my husband, who turns it on but forgets to turn it off. This product advertised that it has a two-hour automatic shut off. That was my main reason for purchasing it. The one I received does NOT turn off automatically!!!!

Perfect for brewing at home for 2 of us. Great value, durable, space saving, easy to clean. This is the second time we have bought this, the first one, we lost the little rubber stopper ring. We kept the rest of the first one for parts, in case I break something! LOL

Já conhecia o produto e atingiu a expectativa

Sencillamente perfecta y el tamaño ideal, puedo llevarla de viaje sin problema.

Its terrific and if you are careful and rinse the grounds out of the filter paper one can last 4 days, its got a hole for the coffee to drip through on the side of the filter holder which is weird. When loaded I turn in on for 10 seconds then turn off the machine for 3/4 minutes to make the coffee swell otherwise the water comes out too fast rather than a slow drip. Its makes good coffee.

If you like to make good coffee at home this machine is perfect. It's reliable, I had it for over a year, makes good coffee in short time, less than 5 minutes for a 5 cups, easy to clean, not remember if it came with the container for the coffee or not, but easy to clean and reuse. It just a simple machine without timer just to make good coffee while you do something else. I am very satisfied with it.

Great coffee maker just failed to mention its different voltage to UK Needed to by a US To UK voltage converter hence 4 stars
