Mr. Coffee - 12-Cup Switch Coffee Maker

Mr. Coffee 12-cup switch model — one big on/off button, visible water window, glass carafe. Grandma-proof and cheap to replace if needed.

I've been using the Mr Coffee 12 cup non-programmable coffeemakers from either Walmart or Target for like 40 years. They last abt 15 yrs and are so cheap (like $22). They make a giant pot of coffee in 5 minutes. I've purchased fancier coffee makers and expresso machines over the yrs. They end up in the back of the cabinet and eventually in the trash or Goodwill. I just don't have time for that in the am. I just want my high quality creamer and a hot cup of quality coffee fast.

I used a Mr Coffee 12 cup for years and it broke on me the other day. I ended up buying a Ninja Dual Brew for $100. It’s awesome, I love it. You can make a full pot of coffee or you can use the single cup function (Keurig style). I bought a reusable k cup so I’m not wasting plastic and I can use my own fancy beans. I mostly make one cup at a time - it brews the coffee so fast and it’s so good! You can also just have it brew hot water for tea super fast.

Ditto Mr Coffee 12 cup is going strong 4yrs later

We have had the absolute cheapest Mr Coffee drip 12 cup pot for 7+ years. I keep saying I’m going to upgrade us to something fancier when it breaks, but it’s too simple to break!

Mr. Coffee 12 cup coffee maker at Walmart. $25. Simple electeic grinder. $15. Filters. $3. Buy whole bean coffee and grind when ready to make coffee. Explore different beans and roasts. Enjoy. I've done French press, pour over, espresso... Mr. Coffee wins for ease and gets used every day. If you have an Aldi nearby, Honduras whole bean organic coffee. Thank me later. It is my go-to.

A classic drip coffee maker like the Mr Coffee 12-Cup or Technivorm Moccamaster, both simple, one-button, no-frills, and make excellent black coffee that’ll last for years.

am I the only one with a 15 yr old $30 Mr Coffee ?? My parents have one thats now close to 30 yrs old.

it could the thing where it WAS made better, but now its garbage. its the 5 of 6 cup one i have and my parents have the 12??? idk its huge.

Old school drip coffee makers are dead simple. I thrifted an old Mr. Coffee from the 80s, and it still works great.

It makes really weak coffee. I had one for 5 years and switched to the OXO (suggested right below this). I was shocked at the quality difference.
