Title: Great for iced coffee too!
Review: When my most important appliance (coffee maker) died last month, I replaced it with this B+D 12 cup maker. The most important feature I needed was the ability to make iced coffee* in the summer - so a glass carafe wasn't a good idea. And since iced coffee lasts much longer than hot coffee, being able to make 12 cups, instead of the standard 10, is another good idea.I like the wide opening of the carafe, for cleaning (and filling it with ice is easier) but I wish the lids designed for all coffee makers with a 'sneak a cup' feature came apart for cleaning. They can hold several ounces of liquid inside the lid and get gunky if not thoroughly rinsed out. I like that the water indicator is a window, rather than some sort of separate tube gage (that was impossible to clean on my last one).The 'strong' feature saves a bit of coffee (it uses a longer brewing cycle, so you could use a little less, but the regular cycle makes a pretty good cup of coffee. I use the strong feature for iced coffee though, since the coffee needs to be double strength to hold up to the ice.I like that the power light pulses when the coffee is being made, and goes solid when done - often you never really know when things are done, even with that nice gurgling sound every drip maker makes at the end.As others have noted - if you leave the carafe in the coffee maker after it's done, the valve at the top will remain open, letting heat out. You can solve this just by taking the coffee filter holder out, since you're going to clean it at some point anyway.The water indicator, the 'strong' indicator and the time, is hard to read if you kitchen lighting isn't good. That's the only thing that effects the 'easy to use' rating.Otherwise it's a coffee pot, and if you can't figure it out, you are either in need of some coffee before operating this appliance, or should just let professional at a coffee shop make your coffee.*How To Make Iced Coffee:Please follow any manufacturers instructions for safety. Test with less ice the first few times and keep an eye on things since your ice trays may vary, and you don't want to thing to overflow.Fill the water reservoir to 6 cups (indicated in the window), fill the coffee filter with as much ground coffee as you normally would for 12 cups (12 T's or so) and fill the carafe with 2 trays of large ice cubes. I can get away with 3 trays - you are trying to almost fill it, but like I said, don't make it overflow, or it'll be messy. The 'strong' feature can save you a little coffee or as you might expect, make it stronger.As soon as it is done (when the light stops pulsing) put the carafe in your fridge (third most important appliance, after the furnace) and the ice will last for 24 hours.

Title: I did my research
Review: Being former U.S. Navy, I drink a lot of coffee. I'm no coffee snob, but I want a good cup. I also don't want to spend a fortune on a coffee maker. This machine isn't perfect, but it gets the job done at a reasonable price. I got the thermal carafe because I don't want the coffee to cook on the burner if I forget to turn it off, and so I don't have to worry about breaking a glass carafe. The thermal aspect is a nice plus, but not my priority. It does however stay warm for a couple of hours. The coffee is smooth and rich, without being over-powering like some of the name brand coffee shops. I prefer a medium roast like MJB or Chock Full of Nuts. Your mileage may vary.

Title: Low Power, aprx 725 watts
Review: This is my first thermal coffee pot. I like the fact that the coffee isn't cooked on the burner after brewing.Works well in normal circumstances.A few things to know;We use this camping and it doesn't make hot coffee if the source water is extremely cold. Example, It didn't work well in Yellowstone in June, the coffee was lukewarm on cold mornings due to cold overnight temps.Another thing to note if you are older or have glasses is that the display is difficult to see.All and all, it is a decent coffee pot, uses less power, works as designed and most importantly, make good coffee. I would buy again. Longevity is TBD.

Title: I absolutely love this coffee maker
Review: This coffee maker is worth every penny! I am a daily coffee drinker and I love the fact the coffee is well brewed, is ready relatively quickly, stays hot in the insulated pot, and does not get burnt tasting. If you want a great coffee maker that won't break the bank, this is it.

Title: just good as the expensive ones
Review: I've purchased Mochamasters, OXOs, and Zojirushi's, and they all failed on some level. They leaked, or they wouldn't keep coffee hot or some other mechanical failure, without exception they all failed within one year. None of them lasted. I bought this one for 60 bucks and so far its just as good as those expensive ones. Coffee is very good,, hot and flavorful, stays hot in the carafe, and is easy to use and clean. I'll never buy an expensive coffee makers again.

Review: I would have paid TWICE the amount for this little darling!!! Perfect drip time to maximize the flavor of the fine ground beans and having the thermal carafe, there is NO constant heat baking the oils in the coffee, like most drip units. This one has it all.......timer, easy to clean, easy to use, max. flavor,......you'll just want to make pot after pot of coffee. I live in an apartment and now have coffee visits from neighbors,......being retired, I don't mind the company. In fact, I invite it!!!! Get yourself one..........you'll thank yourself for doing so!!!! Robert.

Review: Este producto lo compre hace 3 meses y me ha funcionado bastante bien, ya que lo uso todos los días, es fácil de usar, no incluye el filtro de tela lavable, por lo que recomiendo comprarlo para evitar estar comprando filtros de papel. La cafetera incluye el contenedor tipo termo que conserva por un periodo largo de tiempo el café caliente aproximadamente por 1.5 horas. Lo recomiendo ampliamente, ya que al ser una termo el contenedor es diferente a las cafeteras tradicionales que incluyen una resistencia térmica que mantiene el contenedor de cristal caliente mientras se sirve la bebida, esta mejora beneficia en bajar el consumo de enegía electrica. Super recomendable
