Pros
makes HOT coffee
Cons
Spills Hot Coffee On You
Best Uses
Makes Good Coffee
Comment:
The actual coffee maker is favorable but the carafe (pot) spills coffee everytime as the spout is too small. If waking up to hot coffee pouring on your foot every morning gets you going, then this make is for you. This particular model should be recalled.
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Doesn't hold 12 cups
Spills easy
Spout to small

Comment:
I have a Black & Decker 12 cup programable coffee maker model DCM2160B and is suppose to be a 12 cup. If I fill the pot with a liquid measuring cup I get 10 cups into the pot to a line on the pot that show 12. When the 10 cups are poured into the coffee maker, the markers on the side of the maker says it has 12 cups, wrong, it only holds 10 cups. When I pour the 12 cups into another maker carafe, it show 10 cups only Who ever designed the coffee pot itself needs too go back to design school as when pouring into a cup the spout is to short and you lose more coffee on the counter then you get in the cup. With these 2 issues I wouln't recommend this product as it is a piece of junk. It must have been made bye a 2 year old. Waste of good money . Consumer report needs to due a story/testing of coffee machine so the public isn't wasting it hard earned money.
How long have you owned it:
One-to-three months
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
