You know, I would've loved to have written a wonderful review of this product. I bought it in July 2009 and it on Dec 21, 2010 it died on me.
The cups of coffee were fine. It brewed a full cup in a minute and all was ok...until Dec 21, 2010 when it decided to just die on me. I pushed the button and it was dead. No light came on or anything.

I've kept it clean all the time and I used it once a day in the morning. It says on the box that there's a one year warantee on the machine. Now I know why...9 months after the one year anniversary of using it -- it dies on you!

I can't even find a manual to see if there's a way I can fix it. So, instead I have to throw it in the garbage? And, no, it didn't cost a lot but does that constitute making a product that doesn't last past one year? Hmmmm...

Black and Decker, what happened?
