Black & Decker 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, DE755B

This is my second one, works very well, does not stand up to electrical surges

I've had my B&D coffee maker for over three years. It's still in great condition. I've never had a problem with it. It's so easy to use, my daughter now prepares it so we wake up to fresh brewed coffee every morning. When she moves out, she's going to have to buy her own. This is the best coffee maker I've ever owned. (And I've owned a lot.)

We purchased this coffee maker about 3 months ago. It was alright when we first used it but it was starting to take a long time to brew a pot of coffee so I tried cleaning it. After cleaning it it took even longer. I tried to clean it again and now it takes 1 hour and 30 minutes to brew a pot. It also has gotten noisy over time. The spout is terrible on this also. It almost always seems to dribble. Yes it may have a warranty but by the time you send it to the company and then pay for return shipping you have spent about what you paid for it. We went out and spent the extra money for a Bunn. That was a great purchase.

I bought this coffeemaker and the clock went crazy. I took it back and exchanged it for another one like it. Well, it WAS just like it. The clock went crazy on it too. It was on military time! Thinking I was programming the clock wrong, I called customer service about this product. It wasn't me, but a defective product. I am going to upgrade to a different coffeemaker. There is no way I am going to get another one like this.

I have put a lot of miles on, not one, but 2 in the stream shop on my ship. We use them constantly daily...they perform like a champ, and have lasted over a year (which is all I expect from any product like this). I will by this particular model until they stop making it.
That's my 2 cents,

Although the product looked nice, and had the features I wanted, it went bizerk and the time kept changing on the clock, so I couldn't use the "programmable" feature. It would brew coffee fine if you just turned it on, but the time would change by itself at random, so you couldn't get it to make coffee at the time programmed. I returned it, getting another one----thinking it was just a fluke I got a defective one, but guess what! I got a second one and the same thing--------the time kept changing! I have had "B & D" coffee makers in the past and had good service with them, but there is something seriously wrong in the making of this model! or there is a load of defective ones amont them. I bought a more expensive "Sunbeam" now!

If your looking for a good price and great performance. This Black & Decker 12-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker fits the bill.
I recommend it highly.

Brought this product because of B&D is supposed to be a quality item. After 3 months of use, the warmer plate burned out. Because of this the coffee would not be hot like it should be when it was being made. I did like the appearance of the coffeemaker but was disappointed that it did not last very long. We only use the coffeemaker for our morning coffee so it was not like we were making coffee all day long. This is second time purchasing B&D coffeemaker and will not buy again, regardless of price.

The clock didn't work from the first day I opened it.
The brewing time was super slow and the coffee
wasn't very hot once brewed.
Very dissapointed.
