First to recommend
Description
A good way to filter the junk java machines from the juiciest picks. Lots of free info is available but a subscription to Consumer Reports is a very, very useful gift to yourself or someone you know....

Black & Decker DCM2500B SmartBrew Coffeemaker
First to recommend
Description
This is my big, black baby. It gives me caffeine lovin' every morning. Sometimes I go back for a nooner, too.
It also happens to be Consumer Reports current top-rated pick.
Oh. And it comes in white.
from the site:
Both Black & Decker models excelled in our tests, with the DCM2500 having a slight lead. It also has a setting that allows you to set the time the coffee starts brewing-a nice touch if the aroma gets you going. Both models can make up to eight or 12 cups at a time and have glass carafes. The Mr. Coffee, which comes with a 12-cup glass carafe, allows you to adjust brew strength and has an adjustable- temperature hotplate. The carafe-less Hamilton Beach offers a dispenser-style setup: Place your mug under the spout and push against the lever, and out comes the coffee.

You're going to need this baby for those "all-nighters" at college. Or perhaps so that you can see straight in the morning when you're getting ready for work. Perhaps so that you can be perky for that all-important job interview! (via amazon.com)
