Reviews around feature (4.39 of 5)

  • My main qualm with this item is that the mess free pouring feature on the pot makes it hard to get the last few drops out
  • The coffee maker itself is nice, the features are very useful
  • Also has several convenient design features like a swivel base, removable water reservoir, and swing out coffee filter holder.
  • On a positive note, the removable water tank is a nice feature - if not for this, I would have only rated one star
  • While the rolling feet and removable water tank were a nice feature of this coffee maker -- the fact that it started to brew coffee that was so weak that it looked like

  • I love the removable water reservoir and the swivel feet that make pulling it out and turning it around easy

Reviews around plate (4.21 of 5)

  • Our measures 185.2 degrees after an hour on the warming plate which is plenty hot.
  • The glass pot broke (as they do) and this comps y does not make a replacement
  • The warming plate did finally rust which is why I'm replacing it.
  • The first one still works, but the hot plate got rusty.
  • This coffee maker shuts off the warming plate after 2 hours.

Reviews around brew (4.03 of 5)

  • Product seemed fine but when used and set up clock doesn't work which in turn doesn't allow the pre brew function, waste of money and would not reccomend buying this product
  • I love the removable tank on the back, the adjustable heater temperature, the bold setting for slower brewing and the easy to remove and clean basket
  • Hamilton Beach recommends brewing decaffeinated coffee when using the bold or 1-4 cup option.
  • We've had this coffee pot under 4 months and the Bold brew option button no longer works, as well as the digital clock
  • I would rate this unit a 5 star now if it weren't for the slow "bold" brew time

Reviews around design (3.63 of 5)

  • but I don’t like the 12 cup tops design it is hard to get all the Coffee out of it!
  • While the maker brews well I've always hated the design of the carafe
  • The carafe is very poorly designed, with a plastic ridge all around the inside of the glass so that it was unnecessarily difficult to get excess water/coffee out
  • It pours smoothly, the bold brew option is great and the removable water reservoir and swing out coffee basket are a really great design.
  • It was s difficult to pour in the waterTge plastic filter cup is difficult to place in the coffee maker.

Reviews around machine (3.62 of 5)

  • So in sum, I really love this machine and it makes very good coffee, a larger amount than most cheap machines, and the temp of the coffee is perfect
  • None of that makes up for such a poorly designed machine.
  • It's not a gorgeous machine, but it works great for the price.
  • On day 3, I went to turn it on, and the machine was totally dead
  • Makes a great cup of coffee, as good as more expensive machines.

Reviews around water (3.58 of 5)

  • This unit (3rd one) also leaked water just like the other two.
  • Had this coffee maker for a few months and then it began to leak water from underneath.
  • I like it so far, the question is will my very hard water plug it up like it does the other brand.
  • It seems to leak water when brewing from the inside of the body of the brewing machine
  • Just rinse the carafe and filter basket under hot water and you’re good.

Reviews around carafe (2.31 of 5)

  • The carafe is comfortable, although the last bit of coffee or cleaning liquid is impossible to pour out.
  • And the coffee is as good as with any other drip coffee maker I've had
  • This one has it as well as a glass carafe to easily see the level of coffee still in it.
  • I bought this model because I broke the carafe of the Hamilton Beach 12-Cup Digital Coffee Maker, Stainless Steel (46201) (Discontinued Model)
  • I had to buy two of these, because I broke the carafe on the first one, and replacements are not easily available.

Reviews around steam (2.31 of 5)

  • It has a swing-out coffee basket (easy to fill, no "showerhead" spewing steam in your face when you want to make a second pot right away).
  • Someone said in another review that the steam is a problem coming out the top and can damage cabinets - I always have it pulled out anyway, so it isn't a problem and you can easily roll it back into place under the cabinets.
  • Pros: Makes good coffee ( using on bold; also has a 1-4 cup setting)Easy water fill upKeeps coffee hot ( using middle of 3 heat settings- top one was actually too hot)Easy clean up with one exception ( see cons)Does not release steam under my countertopCons
  • It was s difficult to pour in the waterTge plastic filter cup is difficult to place in the coffee maker.
  • I loved my old coffee maker as it made a strong cup of coffee

Reviews around ground (1.65 of 5)

  • The basket pops open and has a handle to pull it up to dump used grounds.
  • I dump the used grounds in my garden & the filter in recycle but still prefer a perm
  • The swing out basket is really handy when dumping the grounds
  • Can't put in too much grounds (if you like strong coffee) - or it causes problems.... messes...
  • The basket takes some getting used to when dumping old grounds, and the smokey water level indicator on the machine is not the easiest to read, but the price and performance make this a great buy.

Reviews around coffee grind (1.33 of 5)

  • Love the swing out door for the coffee grinds since that also makes setting up less messy
  • The only minor citicizm is the color of the coffee basket as it is difficult to see if the basket is clean the coffee grinds being the same color
  • the ability to set the warming pad temp is a great touch, as I like my coffee hot, but I also like to drink it pretty promptly without waiting for it to cool for 20 minutes
  • A big plus.4.This coffee maker has some incredibly useful, attractive features: a swivel base; an EASY-TO-FILL WATER RESERVOIR; a pull-out coffee-ground dispenser.
  • Separating the water reservoir from the coffee grinds was smart
