Offering all the conveniences of a larger unit, this compact five-cup coffeemaker works great for small households, apartments, and dorm rooms. It features a simple on/off switch, a power indicator light, and a one-piece cover for easy access to the water reservoir and removable filter basket. The included Perfect Pour glass carafe offers water-fill and brewed-coffee markings, as well as a generous stay-cool handle and drip-free pouring spout for graceful serving. Other handy extras include a water-level window, cord storage to keep excess cord out of the way, and a nonstick keep-warm plate that ensures the last cup of coffee is as hot as the first. The coffeemaker measures approximately 9-4/5 by 7-1/5 by 10-4/5 inches.

Black & Decker 5-Cup Coffeemaker is an inexpensive & quick way to a delicious cup of coffee. The size of the pot is perfect for one person or two. So easy to use & easy clean up. Nice, clean lines. Great gift idea.
Note: when filling the water resovoir & pouring the coffee, it’s best to use the thumb tab to lift the carafe lid, otherwise the liquid tends to over flow the spout.

The Black & Decker 5-cup coffeemaker is a good little basic pot for those times when you only need to make enough coffee for one or two people. I generally use a 16 oz. mug for my coffee and with this pot I get almost two mugs full. One of the other reviewers mentioned that the hot plate portion of their pot had corroded from the coffee dripping onto it. I haven’t had that problem but I’ve only had my pot for about three months. There are no bells and whistles with this machine - no timers, automatic shutoff, etc. It’s just a good basic coffeemaker for people who don’t want to make a big pot of coffee when all they want is a cup or two.

This appliance makes just the right amount of coffee for me with all its faults. The water guage is invisible unless you close the lid. If you close the lid how do you pour in the water? The overfill guide is two holes in the water compartment. If by accident, you overfill, you have water all over the counter. After the coffee is made, the entire appliance is dripping with condensation. The price is right but sure has lots of design problems.
