Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Black & Decker DCM575 5-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, White
Customer Review: hold over the sink!
Summary: 4 Stars
description and product reliably match except for one thing; I challenge the manufacturer to pour from the carafe without spilling coffee which I understand is the claim--otherwise a simple machine, small and easy to use which is what I wantedCustomer Review: Camping
Summary: 4 Stars
I got this for my stepdad for his trailer when they camp. He says it makes a great cup of coffee and it does it fast. (The one he had before took 1/2 hour) He really likes and it is small for camping.Customer Review: BD Coffee Maker
Summary: 4 Stars
This item was a Christmas gift to my daughter and her fiance. Their comments were quite favorable as to the coffee produced and the over all ease of use of the machine.Customer Review: Tried others
Summary: 4 Stars
Use it every day, all day. First one I owned lasted about five years. Keeps coffee hot without changing taste.Customer Review: Messy - sorry it doesn't have "pause and serve" feature
Summary: 3 Stars
I chose this coffeemaker primarily because I liked the size, the way it looks & the automatic shut-off feature. I'm satisfied with the coffee it makes - it is hot enough for me & the warming plate keeps it hot. Since I usually only have one large mug of coffee in the morning, I didn't think I would miss the "pause & serve" feature. However, when I take out the carafe to pour the coffee, a small amount of coffee almost always leaks down onto the warming plate. I now try to remember to remove the brew basket before I pour my coffee but since that usually drips a lot, I have to grab a plate to put it on so it doesn't drip all over my counter on the way to the sink. (I think coffee makers without the "pause and serve" feature that have a cone shaped brew basket might not be quite as messy as this one with a flat bottomed brew basket.) As mentioned by previous reviewers, the carafe will spill coffee unless you pour slowly & carefully. In order to get 2 cups of coffee in the carafe, I need to fill the coffeemaker to the 2 1/2 cup line - which isn't a big deal. I will probably replace this coffeemaker with another one within the next few months.
