Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Hamilton Beach 48275 Brew Station 6-Cup Coffeemaker, Black/Gray
Customer Review: At least it makes a good cuppa coffee
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought the hot pink version, #48271, from the after school clearance aisle for $11. Most of the comments about this style of Hamilton Beach Brewmaster (regardless of the model #) are right on.
the pros:
+It makes 2 travel mugs of coffee.
+The coffee is hot and delicious!
+It was worth the $11 sale price.
+Easy to program.
+Small footprint and it looks good.
+No carafe!
+No drips.
+The hot pink color will become a conversation starter!
Where to start. I think the industrial designers and approver of this thing should be fired. They obviously never used a kitchen or had to clean up after themselves!
the cons:
-This thing is MESSY!!
-Condensation on the lid. The tracks under the lid should guide the moisure into the hopper, but the lid gets so wet that the moisture overwhelms the ability of the design to do its job. Thus, water gets all over the counter. Opening this lid hours after brewing or over the sink helps somewhat with the moisture problem.
-This thing is ridiculously tall when the lid is open.
-The coffee basket isn't deep enough to hold the standard available basket filter that it calls for. I have yet to find the small 4-8 cups size that should fit. I shouldn't have to special order something like that.
-Due to the filter size, you have to remember to move the water arm over the grinds or it knocks the side of the filter over when you close the lid.
-The water comes out with such force that the grounds get on the inside of the lid.
-The basket holder and hopper have weird clunky shapes with nooks and crannies and bumps that need to be rinsed out daily, resulting in water splashed everywhere.
-You have to be accurate when pouring the water into the boiler. The directions say to use the hopper, but its large square shape makes it easier to miss. I use my Britta as it pours where I need it to.
Whatever. I'm done complaining about this coffee maker. I'm just glad I got it on sale and don't have to use the thing on a desk in a dorm room! Its two saving graces are that it does make a really good cuppa joe, and hot pink is one of my favorite colors.
