Just used my new Mr. Coffee 12 cup coffee maker which was received free pending an honest review. My opinion is that I have personally owned 3 coffee makers from Mr.Coffee and honestly never had a problem with any of their products other than the fact they get old and leak from being used constantly 2 times sometimes 3 times a day. This new one is no different. It brews efficiently and within minutes you will have a great tasting cup of coffee. The price to buy this model is about the lowest for a national brand you find as well. I am pleased and would reccommend to anyone wanting a new coffeemaker.
