Black & Decker Brew-n-Go Coffee Maker Review


Rating for the Black & Decker Brew n' Go Coffee Maker: Construction: 3, Functionality: 5, Usability: 5, Appearance: 3

  1. Coffee Maker Construction
    The Black & Decker Brew-n-Go is not fragile, but nor is it sturdy. The lid in particular seems flimsy. The cup that comes with the system, however, is very nice.

  2. Coffee Maker Controls and Usability
    The Black & Decker Brew-n-Go is very easy to operate. It takes very little time to make your first (and every subsequent) cup of good coffee. As mentioned, the unit's lid is flimsy, particularly when it is warm right after use. There are no programmable functions.

  3. Coffee Pods or Filters
    The Black & Decker Brew-n-Go has a built-in filter that is very nice, very sturdy. It seems like it will last for as long as I have the machine.

  4. Coffee Maker Water Reservoir and Special Features
    There are no special features: the Black & Decker Brew-n-Go brews one large cup of coffee and it does it very well. The cup that ships with the unit is large and the coffee is very good. Also, the unit brews coffee quickly.

  5. Coffee Quality
    The Black & Decker Brew-n-Go brews a very good cup of coffee. I was using a French-press model prior to this one, and the coffee is equally good if not better.

  6. Ease of Cleaning
    The Black & Decker Brew-n-Go is fairly easy to clean. The arm of the unit where the hot water comes out tends to get coffee grounds on it. It takes a little work to scrub them off if they dry.

  7. Coffee Maker Design and Appearance
    The Black & Decker Brew-n-Go's design is fine. It's compact, looks fine, and fits nicely into a corner of my counter. Its look is pretty utilitarian, not particularly fashionable. It doesn't look bad, but it is not a piece that people will be drawn to when they walk in my kitchen.
