  • Programmable Coffee? Cool!

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Aug 2, 2003
    Pros: The Black and Decker Coffee Maker offers all the necessities of a coffee pot.
    Cons: There can be a little mess of water when you open the one piece unit.

    Summary: While my husband’s family was visiting with us a few months back we were using our coffee maker a lo ... read more

  • Decent for a quick cup o' joe on the go

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 17, 2008
    Pros: Handy for those mornings on the run; rapid brew time
    Cons: Durability

    Summary: As a grad student with a more-than-hectic schedule, I usually rolled out of bed and run out the door. This Brew 'n Go Personal Coffeemaker and Travel Mug have saved the day! Water heats extremely rapidly and it takes no more than 2 minutes from turning ... read more

  • RIP after Seven Years of Faithful Service

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Aug 20, 2007
    Pros: Great coffee, good quality, simple operation, easy to clean.
    Cons: Does not fit taller travel mugs. A timer would be nice.

    Summary: I received the Brew 'n Go as a gift, and was skeptical of it at first. Why do I need it when I have a 12 cup Braun "Cadillac"? However the Braun was overkill when I cut back to only a cup or two of coffee per day. Once I started using the Brew 'n ... read more

  • Messy, but perfect for one.

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Mar 6, 2007
    Pros: Small affordable unit perfect for one person.
    Cons: Can be messy and the "to-go" cup is not that practical.

    Summary: I love brewed coffee but hated the idea of wasting so much of it every time I wanted a cup of coffee. When I lived alone, making more than two cups at a time and having a large coffee maker on my kitchen counter made no sense. So this coffee maker was ... read more

  • The Brew 'N Go makes a quick, if not completely perfect cup of coffee

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Dec 20, 2005
    Pros: Easy, Quick, Simple Cleanup
    Cons: Lukewarm coffee

    Summary: If you don’t mind cutting a few corners on coffee temperature and taste, then you might consider the Black & Decker Brew ‘N Go a respectable one-cup coffeemaker. No one should purchase the Black & Decker Brew ‘N Go expecting the world’s ... read more

  • Out the Door...with my... Brew to Go!!

    Oct 30, 2005
    Pros: Permanent filter, automatic shut-off, brew directly into mug, quick brew in only 2 min.
    Cons: None

    Summary: Good Morning! People...Want a good cup of java now?...and another to go? Only takes 2...min's...and...Yep! it's done. I must say, I'm an all American coffee drinker, and Yes! you might say that I'm even addicted to this go-juice. Gotta! have a cup, ... read more

  • SmartBrew? who says???

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    May 19, 2005
    Pros: I can program it easily.
    Cons: Coffee doesn't get hot enough, hard to clean inside parts

    Summary: I have been using my B+D coffee maker for about 6 months now and I have to say I have been become increasingly frustrated by it's "features". According to the website this machine has the following functions: Perfect Pour?Carafe with dripless spout & ... read more

  • An inexpensive, reliable workhorse of a coffee machine

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Oct 18, 2003
    Pros: It's an inexpensive, reliable, sturdy, and well designed coffee machine with convenient features.
    Cons: A little difficult to clean, "sneak a cup" feature can drip a little.

    Summary: I've had this coffeemaker for about a year and a half, and I don't have any complaints. No parts have broken, the clock is accurate, the timer still functions, I still wake up every morning to a nice fresh pot of coffee. The lip of the pot is well forme ... read more

  • The Good, Bad & Ugly...

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Feb 15, 2003
    Pros: Easy to use & makes good coffee
    Cons: only 6 months old & already conked out!

    Summary: I bought this machine about 6 months ago. For me, the "bad" far outweighs the good. There were so many adjustments to make for use of this machine. The top lid is flat so when you open it, the inside condensation runs down the back & onto your ... read more

  • SmartBrew Plus Coffeemaker: Messy.

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Dec 27, 2002
    Pros: Brews good coffee. Inexpensive.

    Summary: 12-Cup SmartBrew Plus Programmable Coffeemaker Features: ~ Perfect pour carafe with dripless spout and ergonomic handle. ~ Easy to clean touch-pad controls. ~ Water fill and coffee brew markings on carafe. ... read more

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Nov 18, 2002
    Pros: First pot that pours without dripping.
    Cons: Condensation from water well lid runs down the outside when opened.

    Summary: This coffeemaker has a fantastic pot that pours without dripping all over the place. I purchased a new coffeemaker [hoping I could use this pot with the new maker] because of the condensation from the lid of the waterwell running down the back of the ... read more

  • Smart Brew Plus Does not last

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Nov 7, 2002
    Pros: Pour spout does not dribble like a lot of coffee pots do.
    Cons: Coffee machine did not last.

    Summary: I had this coffee maker for less than a year, had trouble getting it to work a couple of times, and then it stopped working all together. I emailed their customer support, and was told to send the cord, with money for postage and handling, and they ... read more

  • Grounds in my coffee....that SMARTS!

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Aug 19, 2002
    Pros: programmable, two hour shut off,
    Cons: Pot slides hard, basket over flows

    Summary: I recently purchased this coffee maker. I thought if I paid for a better brand, and spent a bit more money I would be in better luck. I do not like this coffeemaker in any shape or form. I enjoy the fact that the filter basket comes out for ... read more

  • Smartbrew Plus is a Plus

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 7, 2002
    Pros: Programmable timer, easy to use, economical model, sneak-a-cup feature
    Cons: Dripless spout not always dripless

    Summary: This coffeemaker is a great buy--sandwiched between Black and Decker's bottom end plain 12-cup Smartbrew and their Delux model, the Smartbrew Plus has just enough extras to make coffee drinkers happy without a lot of trouble. We don't drink a ... read more

  • Good value -- odd handling

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Dec 10, 2001
    Pros: Good value; looks great on the counter; cleans easily.
    Cons: Caraf requires precise placement.

    Summary: Bought my SmartBrew Plus for $30 at a Black & Decker outlet -- a good value in my book! Good stuff: Makes good coffee and is attractive on the counter. Very easy to use, including setting clock and auto timer. Cleans easily, too, with one ... read more

    Pros: Makes a small amount.  No waste.  Fast.
    Cons: Spring-type switch always breaks.

    Summary: I used this brand of single cup coffee maker for years.  I don't drink much coffee and wanted a cup just once in a while, so it was perfect.  Over time, they seemed to be breaking more frequently.  It was always the spring-loaded

    Pros: It can useful for one person or ppl who all want different flavor coffee's.
    Cons: Honestly I have nothing bad to say about it.

    Summary: It is great when only one person in your home drinks coffee. My husband bought mine for me about 5yrs. ago for x-mas,and it's still going strong today. But it could use a new filter and honestly I can't find a replacement anyone have any idea's plz

  • Works great at first...

    May 1, 2007
    Pros: Brews fast, permanent filter
    Cons: Leaks like a sieve

    Summary: I bought this to replace my Black and Decker Cup-at-a-Time one-cup coffee maker. This one, like the first, worked great until the filter had to be "cleaned" after the recommended three months. This one still brews after the cleaning, unlike the first
