Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Black & Decker DCM500B SmartBrew 5-Cup Coffeemaker, Black

Customer Review: Makes terrible coffee
Summary: 1 Stars

Ok, I know that this is meant to be a no-frills, simple coffee maker, but the quality of the coffee that it produces is just unacceptable. Like another reviewer wrote, it doesn't heat the water hot enough to make flavorful coffee. So unless you like warm, weak coffee, stay away from this machine!
The spout on my carafe didn't leak, but the carafe, itself, was rather fragile. Terrible buy. I'm returning mine tomorrow.

Description of Black & Decker DCM500B SmartBrew 5-Cup Coffeemaker, Black

Black & Decker SmartBrew in black. Includes 5-cup capacity, lighted on/off switch, water filter, removable brew basket, water window, non-stick keep warm plate, and Perfect Pour Carafe.
Black & Decker, long known as a maker of quality tools, brings that same dependability to the kitchen in small countertop appliances such as the DCM500B SmartBrew 5-cup coffeemaker. Ideal for apartment dwellers, office workers, RV owners, or anyone else who might have kitchen counter space constraints, this compact drip coffeemaker is a smart answer to the question, "where's my next cup of coffee coming from?"

The body of the coffeemaker, built from heavy-duty, glossy black plastic, has a one-piece, hinged lid that allows access to both the water reservoir and the removable brew basket. There's a see-through water level indicator on the coffeemaker, and the carafe has clearly marked fill and brew lines. (The lines take into account the extra water needed to brew a cup of coffee.) The carafe also features a broad Perfect Pour spout, a dripless design trademarked by Black & Decker. Nonstick coating on the warmer plate prevents the carafe from sticking when occasional coffee drips scorch on the plate. The 3-foot power cord offers some flexibility for convenient counter placement.

The removable brew basket is dishwasher safe. Hand wash carafe in hot water with a soft sponge and mild detergent; do not use abrasive cleansers or scrubbers on carafe. Wipe down the coffeemaker with a warm, damp cloth and dry completely; coffeemaker is not immersible. Rinse brew basket and carafe thoroughly to ensure purity of coffee flavor. The carafe measures 6 by 4-1/2 by 5 inches and has a 3-1/2-cup (28-fluid-ounce) capacity. (A 5-cup coffeemaker produces five 5-ounce cups.) The coffeemaker measures 8 by 6-1/2 by 10 inches. Flat-bottomed paper coffee filters are not included. Black & Decker includes a detailed instruction sheet and a one-year limited warranty against materials or workmanship. --Garland Withers
