I wanted a coffe maker that would make the coffee and put it in a container I could set on the coffee table so you don't have to constantly get up to refill your guests or your own coffee cup while entertaining or even just sitting around watching a movie! This coffee maker is very attractive and works very well and quickly. The feature with the programmable buttons OVER the water are great, because that way water doesn't leak into the electronics and short them out. The carafe is a nice size and shape and it is very easy to clean and keep neat looking. The draw backs to this product are several and I would not buy one again, much to my disappointment. First of all, I really wanted a black one since coffee stains and you have to constantly scrub this to keep it white! Also, the carafe doesn't keep the coffee hot for very long. It does keep it warm, however. Also, the shape of the carafe is too round and the last cup of coffee gets caught in the "shoulders" of the pot, making tipping the carafe upside down necessary to get the last of the coffee out. The worst problem with this product is that you turn the lid partially to a spot marked "pour" with an arrow. The coffee comes out very slowly and if you don't have it just right over the spout, the coffee dribbles everywhere. The idea is wonderful, but some adjustments really need to be made to this product. Our house is for sale and we are leaving the coffee maker with the house!Read full review
Years ago, I had a B&D Spacemaker under counter carafe coffeemaker at home and at the office. The coffee stayed hot all day, without becoming toasted. I was looking for a coffeemaker for my daughter's dorm room especially one that could be mounted under a shelf, and one where the water carriage could be carried from the hall water source, inserted without the need to pour, thus avoiding a potential mess in her room. The thought of a stainless steel carafe that would be less likely to break was also a motivating factor. I anxiously hoped this model would be even better than the two of ten years ago. This unit is larger and far more bulky. The water carriage worked flawlessly. The coffee came out exactly as expected. But the Carafe, unlike its predecessors, did not seal at all. The coffee was therefore neither portable nor hot after a few minutes. I do not know whether the carafe was faulty, or the designer was incompetent. Either way, the purchase was a big disappointment. I shall not buy another.Read full review
It has all the features that you could want. A thermal pot (can't burn, does not need heat, and stays fresh), under / on counter mount, coffee make timer. Load it at night and fresh coffee in the morning with no worry....no hot plate to turn off.

I bought this particular coffee maker because we needed something in a more compact size, to fit underneath our cabinets and because we drink ALOT of coffee. With our previous coffee makers, the longer the pot sat on the heated surface the more it began to taste too strong or "cooked". With the Black & Decker you have the thermal carafe. This keeps the coffee hot for several hours and fresh. It never gets that "old" taste. I also like the fact that the carafe is cool to the touch on the outside, not hot like regular glass pots. On the down side, I don't know if it's the way the screw top lid is made or what but once you pour the first couple of cups and you begin to have to tilt the pot up higher the coffee runs down the side of the pot and pools all over the counter. Kind of a pain so we hold our cups over the sink to fill them.Read full review
This was a replacement for a older Spacesaver Coffee Maker. This newer style takes up much less space as it sits back a bit further back under the cabinet. The water reservoir is easy to remove and fill. Sneak a cup is nice for when you can't wait. The carafe does not keep coffee hot as long as I expected but it does the job. We program the unit so that the coffee finishes right as we are ready to head out for work and coffee is nice and hot for our morning commute. I no longer have to worry about the burner not turning off or scorching the pot.
