Mommy2Four Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 Need a new one...nothing special...just need it to brew and to be a great price. Let me know if you come across one please.
lostinmotherhd Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 At Wal-Mart I saw a brewer that has 2 insulated travel mugs instead of a carfe marked down to 9.99. The brewer was black.
sterlingjeanne Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 How about the free ones at Gevalia? Very good quality at $14.95, no tax, free shipping ... and includes 2 1/2 pound coffees. Usually a lot of codes floating around.
mrn8 Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 Anything that's cheap will be on par with the Gevalia coffee makers, so I would 2nd that route. The current offer is the stainless steel pot and coffee scoop for free. Just place the order with the coffee and cancel after you receive everything. I've done it a few times and their coffee makers look nice and make coffee just as well as your typical Mr Coffee, Black & Decker, Cuisinart, etc.... Here's the offer page: http://www.gevalia.com/Gevalia/continuity/enroll/join_kaffe.aspx If you want to get one that will last you forever and make excellent coffee, pick up a Bunn home coffee maker. You can also use it for instant hot water for cooking and beverages, because it uses a resevoir system. I think it's the only maker in the $100 range that's actually worth the money. The next best thing is a $15-$20 french press. Bunn Home Coffee Maker 8-cup Coffee Press
krolyat Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000BH99PE.16._SCLZZZZZZZ_SS260_.jpg Great price + Great brand <-- only $17.99
Marcster Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 Stay away from this one, I had one that lasted 3 months. I was very disappointed. http://static.flickr.com/27/179003085_12ceebb7f2.jpg
mln51 Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 I second marcster. I have that Mr coffee pot and it's terrible. I am on my third one. First one broke within two months exchanged it, then they leaked from the bottom. I emailed mr coffee and they sent me replacements but it's definately not the quality i expected from that brand nor for the $50 price tag. Get a cheap one without the extra bells and whistles, they seem to last the longest.
Marcster Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 This is my current coffee maker: http://graphics.samsclub.com/images/products/0004438742859_L4.jpgDelonghi 12-Cup Drip Coffee Maker http://www.samsclub.com/shopping/navigate.do?dest=5&item=145652 It's starting to leak out of the bottom, but it was only $30 and I've had it for two years and I brew coffee twice a day just about every day. The coffee tastes much better with the Aroma Button set to "on" ("Aroma Button actives a unique brewing process that enhances the flavor and aroma of your coffee"). I'll be replacing it with the same coffeemaker.

sm1kla Posted March 16, 2007 Posted March 16, 2007 I just bought Cuisinart Grind & Brew on clearance at Macy's for $30. It was marked down from $139.
Mommy2Four Posted March 16, 2007 Author Posted March 16, 2007 Stay away from this one, I had one that lasted 3 months. I was very disappointed. http://static.flickr.com/27/179003085_12ceebb7f2.jpgI have had two of these, both broke right away, but the company replaced them. My mother had two go bad, had them replaced. My father fixed one after the fact so now they have a spare. My granny has one and has had no problems with it. Not very consistent and not what you would expect! Thanks everyone for responding...I am ordering tonight!!
tlock1945 Posted March 18, 2007 Posted March 18, 2007 Bunn...after having one, I cannot go to a different coffee maker. They are great! And so fast...
Marcster Posted March 18, 2007 Posted March 18, 2007 Thanks everyone for responding...I am ordering tonight!!Which one are you ordering? http://s23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/Marcster2005/Smileypad/Coffee/INKitCoffeepot2.gif

I think it's the only maker in the $100 range that's actually worth the money.Absolutely Agree - about the Bunn & the French Press!! The Bunn brews a full pot in 3 minutes.We drink 3-4 pots a day. The first one we had worked like a horse for 6 years - and probably would last someone who drinks less coffee a very long time!! In my area, they run about $110.00 on sale..... though I did find this gem...I ordered from this site and had no complaints. 76.99 + ~10.00 to ship.http://www.drillspot.com/products/307697/Bunn-O-Matic_BX-B_10CBLK-SS-Coffee-Brewer *Searching from the homepage by a keyword or item number, it returns nothing related to these coffee brewers.From the Our Products List click on 'Appliances & Electronics', then 'Coffee Makers & Tea Brewers' then 'Drip Coffeemakers 10 cup', .... the Bunns don't display a picture.I used the Bunn website to compare the models.
