   The machine will consistently preform well. I have broken the carafe (my fault) So I bought another one. I recommend it to everyone I know. They are all happy with it as well. Please HB don’t change a thing.

   For $25, I knew not to expect anything excellent, and thus far (less than a week), this coffee maker performs exactly as advertised. I’ve used Hamilton Beach small appliances for many years, finding them to generally be the best bang for the buck. This one, model 46290, is a replacement for my 2018 HB 49980A 2-way coffee maker. Sadly, that one got knocked to the floor and broken after four years of flawless service. I’m disappointed that this one is made of thinner plastic, thinner carafe glass, and is downsized overall. That’s why I’m giving it only 3 stars. Even the 12-cup basket is about 10-15% smaller than the older one, being barely large enough for the 12-cup filters. As I said, though, it all seems to work as expected, so I’ll continue to use it.

   Overall, I like quality of brew that this maker provides. However, I find that when I try to make 8 cups or more I get coffee grinds in the pot. I use the store-bought 8-12 cup basket filters. It seems that the drip is too slow compared to the hot water filling the basket. Then, grinds begin to flow over the paper filter and into the pot. When I need to make 8 or more cups, I need to stop the hot water flow mid-brew to allow the coffee to drain from the basket. Then, restart the hot water. A bit inconvenient.

   Worked well. Esthetically and functionally very nice. The only thing I would fault is the carafe is a thinner glass than Mr. Coffee carafe. So if you bump your carafe often, you may want to pass on this brand.

    Very easy to use.
    If you like your coffee with more flavor I recommend adding a extra tablespoon of coffee and press BOLD on the settings.
    1cup water /1 tablespoon Of coffee
    It doesn’t take to much space and it looks pretty.

    It’s been a month, and it’s still brewing coffee.
    The pros:
    Starts on time.
    Timer works… warms for 2 hrs and off it goes.
    You can use the reusable plastic filters. We have 3 different types, and they all work.
    The cons:
    Boy is this machine built cheap. It looks cheap… feels cheap, and even sounds cheap. Tap it with your finger, and you know the plastic in this machine is thin. Even the carafe is cheap… feels fragile. Thin glass makes it light, and fragile. So be gentle.
    But… with all that, it makes 12 cups of coffee. So far… so good.
    * it’s not actually 12 cups. Through the process you loose water, so I fill the machine to just under the opening in the back of the reservoir. Then add another tablespoon of coffee to the filter.
    Cheers
