KitchenAid KCM200 12 Cup

Pros: It's a Kitchen aid

Cons: Not hot enough, loud, spout leaks when pouring

Review: This is the machine that Kitchen aid has recalled thank god because I never really liked it. I like my coffee very hot and this never did do the trick. I will be looking for a thermal crafted type this ...

Pros: makes a decent cup of coffee

Cons: quality problems, messy pouring

Review: Although this unit makes fairly good coffee, the sneak-a-cup feature never worked. The spout on the caraffe needs to be deeper, wider or something so that you don't spill so much coffee when pouring. It's nearly impossible to pour when the pot is full ...

Pros: Nice Features and Design

Cons: Coffee was lukewarm

The Bottom Line: AVOID THIS COFFEE MAKER IF YOU LIKE HOT COFFEE.

Review: We purchased this coffee maker because our old Mr. Coffee under the cabinet one died. We were spoiled with the hot coffee our Mr. Coffee Maker made. This machine is well designed and very easy to use, however the coffee seemed warm and did not stay warm...

Pros: Good Hot Coffee

Cons: The carafe drips when pouring

Review: But then its made by Whrlpool of all things! I know this because there is a recall on this product. I have to admit that this coffeemaker does make a good cup of coffee but then just about all coffee makers do. The hot plate DOES keep the temperature ...

Pros: It is programmable.

Cons: No longer able to purchase replacement water filters.

Review: YOU CAN NO LONGER PURCHASE REPLACEMENT CHARCOAL WATER FILTERS FOR THIS MACHINE. THEY NO LONGER MANUFACTURE THEM. I WISH I KNEW THIS BEFORE I PURCHASED THIS COFFEE ...

Pros: None

Cons: brew-stop feature, coffee temperature, carafe, price.

Review: I've read several of the positive reviews on this coffee maker and am amazed that we are talking about the same machine. The carafe is anything but spill-proof. Everyone who has used it in our house has had difficulty not spilling coffee on the ...

Pros: Nice looking design

Cons: Everything

Review: My husband and I received this coffee maker as a wedding gift in September. We were excited to be getting a "good" coffee maker finally. We have gone through 3 brew baskets in 4 months - the spring isn't strong enough to close off the drip spout, so ...

Pros: Looks good

Cons: Noisy and messy

The Bottom Line: Avoid this product.

Review: The pause and pour has never worked on my coffee maker. When I go to pour a cup of coffee the coffee ...

Pros: Adjustable coffee strength dial, no-spill carafe, audible alert

Cons: produces a lot of steam during brewing, somewhat noisy

The Bottom Line: It's a workhorse machine that feeds us what we need. We like it -- it's definitely something that would fit most needs.

Review: We bought this coffee maker for an office full of caffeine-heads -- people who make and drink at least 4-5 pots of coffee a day and are used to coffee that is strong enough to lift weights and kick over hot dog stands without assistance. We'd demolished...

Pros: Simple to use, quick brewing, produces good tasting coffee

Cons: Very noisy, useless external water level indicator

The Bottom Line: Overall, the KitchenAid 12-Cup Ultra is a good solid coffee maker. And if you can get it for under $60, buy it.

Review: I found the KitchenAid 12-Cup Ultra on sale at the Wegmans Supermarket for $45. The price was a steal for this particular KitchenAid model. Since I was tired of our low-end non-performing Braun coffee maker, it was a good time to replace it.
