I love the size, all the other one cup makers took up twice as much space. It's ideal for those of us who just want that one or maybe two cups of coffee. This makes a great gift too for those friends and relatives who do alot of traveling. This is just the right size to bring along with you on trips, or in an office. It takes up a really small amount of space.
Wrong. And we didn't have to get the special pods that other single-cup coffeemakers typically use.
This coffeemaker is so easy to use and we are both really glad we got them. We did purchase the Size #1 filters; they cost about $1.80 for a box of 40.
There have been many times that I wanted a cup of coffee but I didn't want to make a whole pot just for myself. We both already have the whole bean coffee and grinder so we could use it now for either our 12-pot coffeemakers or our One-cup coffermakers.
The automatic shutoff is perfect especially for my mom since she is older and tends to forget to turn off things. So I found this B&D Cup-At-A-Time Coffeemaker, but when I saw the price I thought it must not be very good.
After looking at what other people on amazon had said about this coffeemaker I decided to purchase 2 of them; one for my mom and one for me.
The solution is to put hot water in and it comes out great. My only complaint which I read here before I purchased is that if you put cold water into it the coffee isn't very hot. Over all I think it is a great buy. This is the perfect coffemaker for anyone that doesn't need a full pot. It works great and I love that it has the auto shut off feature when it is done brewing.
A well made product at a good price. I bought this from Amazon over a year ago, use it several times every day, and it's still going strong.
I still give it 5 stars because it's inexpensive, reliable, and does everything we intended. The only down side, same as with the one we had preciously, is that if you put too much coffee in the filter it will boil out of the filter into the boiler and sometimes onto the counter. Makes a mess. This arrived a day before it was scheduled so we were pleased to begin with. When I need stronger coffee I use another cheap, small machine that makes espresso. He needed something small that would fit in the space in which he now lives (until a prosthesis lets him negotiate stairs better). We had another B&D single cup coffee maker for years, slightly larger version, and gave it to my father in law because he had a below the knee amputation and can't get up the stairs to the kitchen. This smaller version doesn't take up much space, has it's own filter so we don't have to go buy them, is easy to clean up and makes good single cup coffee quickly.
