The old machine (after many, many years of faithful service) died an ignoble death Monday morning

It had a silent, overnight death.

, it lasted about 3 years, until it died a horrible death

thanks B&D for making another junk product

I don't know if the manufacturer changed components and got a bad batch, but this model isn't as good as the B&D model from years past

Shame to throw away an otherwise fine working coffee maker that likely has a loose connection or short, I will never know because for some reason B&D uses these ridiculous screws to discourage self reliance.

Seems to work just as dependably as the old B+D so far, and it makes a good cup of coffee.

Great coffee, doesn't burn as it stays warm.

The coffee tastes every bit as good as -- or better than -- the coffee I made for 20 years in my now-defunct Krups.

I bought this in april 2015 and it has now stopped working as of Jan 7,2016

Frequently overflows as it's easy to misplace the pot and there's no auto shut off for the pot when that happens

Works as i had hoped.

Works as it should.
