Brentwood TS-112B 1-Cup Coffee Maker

Efficient good price less than half of competitors! No assembly plug in and go!

I hate K-cup. Why would *anyone* want one of those horrible machines? I was looking for something to change from my Melitta filter cone where I just couldn't get a consistent coffee flavour. Then I saw this Brentwood brewer. Good price, I didn't need something for 12 cups, or 8cups or even six or four. My previous coffee maker has lasted over TEN years, a "Thomas", which was actually an espresso maker, but it made ONE CUP. It is still in the hands of my son and his mother, making coffee. I have read complaints that the machine doesn't make 14 ounces of coffee. It says quite clearly: ONE cup. It even includes the cup. I read a complaint that the user couldn't fit that cup under the spout. What? Impossible. I can't fit a 12 ounce MUG under the spout. What would you expect? A CUP is 8 ounces. I have an eight ounce pitcher I was going to use for cream, instead I use it to measure out the water. The other complaints: tasting like old burnt plastic? What did you do to it? I'll bet you turned it on without water! And you let it sit, and now it's burnt. Or you dumped the grounds into the reservoir. I suggest you clean it out well and try again. A great cup of coffee, consistent flavour because of the included measure, and FAST. From dump the old grounds to take a sip is only four minutes. It's easy to clean and compact, taking up little counter space. There is ONE problem. It makes such good coffee, that I'm drinking up to five cups a day now! Now you know the limitations of this product, but they are nothing compared to the benefit of perfect portioning. I call my machine DARTH COFFEE -- because of its similarity to a certain movie character.
