Simple Brew 12-Cup Switch Coffee Maker

This coffeemaker nice and straightforward. Keep your coffee hot for long time what very important for family who wake up in different times. Price is affordable I don’t buy expensive coffee machine anymore because they all need to be replaced time to time in order to have good quality coffee. This one is perfect.

My old coffee maker by another manufacturer needed a new lid for the carafe (just the lid), but they wanted me to buy a whole carafe for nearly the price of an entire coffee maker. So I noticed that Mr. Coffee will sell you lids separately. So I went with this model. Simple. No programming required. No clocks to reset every time the power goes off. Only an on/off switch, so you have to be responsible for not leaving it on overnight and burning your coffee to a hard, smelly paste. But it fulfills it's purpose brilliantly by making an excellent pot of coffee every single time. Forget programming it for coffee to be ready when you wake up. Just flip it on, and it will brew your coffee in the time it takes to brush your teeth.

Love this coffee maker. It makes great coffee, and it brews up to 12 cups It’s nice because you can pause the brewing process in the middle to pour a cup as it is brewing! It doesn’t drip much since you can pause it! We got this as an anniversary gift to each other and we have been loving it. Looks great next to our espresso machine.

I have used this brand and model of Mr. Coffee for decades. It's simple and works. After years of faithful service, the switch on my old one failed, so I recently replaced it. It happens; no big issue. BUT: For the first time ever, the carafe no longer has cup measurement markings to the right of the handle. I only have the use of my left hand. When filling the pot, I can not see the measurements to the left of the handle; they are hidden by my left hand. Why, Mr. Coffee, are you making it difficult to use for those of us who aren't right-handed?

just fill it, flip the ON switch, and wait a few minutes...the wait is well worth it. Mr. Coffee has been the best coffee maker we've ever had...40 years. The simple ones are the best. We have a Keurig as a back up, but the coffee just isn't the same. Our old one finally died after 5 years, but Amazon came through before we went into TOTAL withdrawal. We're back in business with our SIMPLE coffee maker that always make it right!

I live by myself so had a small coffee maker that died so when I looked at a new one I thought, hey, I don't care if coffee is in the frig for a day or two before I drink it. I can just heat it up in the micro! So I bought this 12 cup machine which doesn't take much more room than a small coffee maker but it's got a LOT more payload and I don't have to mess with making coffee every day! AND if I have company, my coffee maker is big enough for mroe people, too. You can tell that I am NOT a coffee snob!

Love it! In a world where everything seems excessively and needlessly complicated, a simple coffee maker with only one button is a welcome break.

*** updated 1/16/2021*** It’s been a few weeks. I tried one more time but the flavor is still there. Maybe it’ll go away but I had also purchased a pitcher that boils watet for tea and it’s great with a. French press we had that I forgot to use. This product I declare as junk for me and regret the purchase thus rating it a one star. I no longer have incentive to try again so it’s unlikely I’ll come back for another updated review. ******** I’m going to start this review off by talking about filters. There are cone filters and then there are flimsy filters. Until I went back to these flimsy filters, I never fully appreciated the cone filters and this will impact future machine purchases for me. Cone filters pack flat meaning storage is less invasive. The hood their shape and are less likely to spill and the won’t collapse when transferring to compost or garbage. It’s a little thing but I appreciate it. So, the point of all this, is that mr coffee uses the flimsy filters. Surprisingly there are a lot of machines that don’t use the cones, which is disappointing. First impressions: The plastic look and felt cheap. I saw reviews that commented about the cheapness of this machine and shrugged it off. Other machines are made of plastic after all. This plastic looks and feels somehow cheaper. I instantly had a negative association to it. The side windows which advertised visibility from both points was a selling point for me. What was failed to be mentioned is that you can’t read the clear numbers when contrasted against a black background or steam. I wrote the marks in with permanent marker to be able to see when filling. One feature I did like is that the spout moves out of the way and the lid snaps it back into place. Simple and elegant engineering. I would never clean these grounds out when hot though. Recipe for spilt grounds and burns. The prep It requires a washing and a single run to remove the plastic flavor, per instructions. I ran 4 times after I washed and before the first use. The plastic smell seemed gone. The usage The first cup seemed fine. Additional uses the plastic taste and smell crept in strongly. I ran a cleanse through it four more times and it’s still there rendering expensive coffee undrinkable. My wife felt like the first coffee had a weird flavor, so maybe I didn’t notice the first time? The fact we have flushed this so many times and the flavor persists is deeply concerning to me. I’ve owned a few coffee machines and never had this issue persist for so long. I’m going to keep trying and if something changes, I’ll update. I’d like this to be a good machine for me, but it’s not. The water heats quickly! This is a lot faster than my older coffee makers! The lighted switch is more subtle than I’d like. It’s a dot vs the entire switch, but in the end my wife and I turn it off after the last cup and it’s not an issue as we both stay at home now. There is no auto shut off. The drip stop works okay. A few drips will come out if you pull early, but it does stop while you pour a cup. A critical feature for my wife. The carafe pours well at an okay speed without dripping down the side. Some will leak if overly full and you have to pour slooooowly to avoid spillage. This seems better designed. This steams a lot and should not be under a cabinet when running. It WILL damage the cabinets. It’s easy to pull out and push back in. The summary: Would I purchase again? No. Even if the flavor fixes itself, I have concerns about the cheapness of this machine and the plastic used and the health impact. I couldn’t find anywhere that discussed if it was bpa free. I hadn’t been concerned because sunbeam owns me coffee, but after seeing and feeling the cheapness of the plastic, and with the plastic taste still present, I’m concerned. It is cheap, the functionality seems good for just a weeks ownership, but the lack of drinkable coffee is an issue. Even if that’s resolved, there’s concern in the back of my mind about the long term health impact of this machine. Hopefully this is helpful. I’d recommend spending more money as I feel I wasted $28 and will be purchasing a new coffee maker, again.

A cafeteira nao esta esquentando a cafe suficientemente. Eu sempre gostei essa marca, mas essa maquina nao esta funcionando corretemente.

Execelente producto. Cumple con lo que menciona, hemos buscando está marca en la ciudad en dónde vivimos y nadie la vende así que decidimos pedirla por internet y toda la familia está feliz con ella. Llegó incluso antes de lo esperado.

Funciona bien, está bonita.

Don't waste your money on this. We heard great reviews on line and in person but this thing died within 4 months. Not replacing a coffee maker every four months with more junk. Yeah sure its easy to use but you can find better quality machines for this price or just a little more. Not impressed at all. Not good quality notbgood reliability. Cheap plastic junk

Simple to use, works 100% of the time and crazy fast drip.. can't go wrong with this one.
