Too Small

Says it makes 4 cups, I guess that's about right. I should have bought a coffee maker with a bigger pot :(

Cheap, does it's job

Pot is too small for my liking

Got me through college

True story: I started brewing coffee with the intention of putting the pot back into the unit but somehow forgot about it. Thus the coffee started backlogging and overflowed all over my counter. Luckily it didn't short circuit anything and I simply...

My parents got me this when I moved into an apartment for college and has lasted with me through 3+ years. It's a great, durable coffeemaker that beats any of the campus' coffee machines/store. I used to make large batches of coffee and fill up a...

I've seen kids waste more money for coffee in one night than it would to buy this unit? As mentioned in other reviews it will drip a little onto the burner and such but it's cheap and economical

Simpl-e Great

Simple on/off. Who really needs another clock in their kitchen, or 5-10 more buttons to make a pot of coffee? This is exactly what I was looking for

Maybe a little steep on the price. I'm no coffee maker price specialist. I used a $10 coupon so I landed this for a reasonable price

I got this coffee pot on a raccomandation from my son ; he got for himself and loved it. i got mine from newegg for under $15 shipped and also love it! it makes a perfect mug of coffee in a few minutes and full of flavor! no frills . just a good cup of...

Really?

Further, the box and instructions do not mention anything about the paper filters other than that they can be purchased at almost any grocery store. There is no information on the optional "permanent coffee filter" other that one exists somewhere, and...

Small footprint, one button, & shiny

Shipped with no paper filters and no actuall filter basket. We assumed filter basket meant the removable coffee filter that virtually all coffeee makers come with now, but instead, this brewer apparently takes mini paper filters, that are nowhere to be...

SIMPLY GREAT

4+ cups of water gives me 4 cups of coffee or two mugs.. Takes about 5mins to brew this small amount... I rinse pot and basket with cold water right after use and only clean with soap and water every two weeks.. This is a perfect two mug coffee maker...

I have owned one of these for 3+ years ; My room mate has gone through several expensive coffee makers :) This one has no frills but makes a great cup of coffee.. I use five heaping teaspoons of quality coffee and just over 4 cups of water.. It uses a...

Wish cord was a little longer ; Little hard to fit my fat fingers into pot to clean every other week

Better than going without

I'd been using a French press at my girlfirend's house to get my morning coffee fix, but using a press is a hassle (especially when you first get up and aren't even awake yet). So, I found this coffee maker on craigslist, new in the box, for ten bucks....

Makes a cup of coffee, mesh filter

Doesn't not brew hot enough

Basic 4 cup coffee maker

I bought the Mr. Coffee TF5 4-Cup Coffee Maker because I had a larger coffee maker and seemed to be wasting more coffee than I was drinking. Mr. Coffee TF5 4-Cup Coffee Maker was not very expensive and seemed to have all the features I needed in a...
