Black & Decker TCM-508 Digital clock with timer & auto-off. Insulated 8-cup carafe. Brew-throgh lid. Sneak-A-Cup Interrupt Feature. Water window with cup levels. Removable filter basket.By brewing coffee directly into a 40-ounce (eight 5-ounce cups) chrome thermal carafe that keeps coffee hot for four hours this coffeemaker eliminates the need for a warming plate that can turn coffee bitter over time. The carafe’s brew-through lid seals shut after brewing is completed, preventing air from entering and spoiling full coffee flavor, and the carafe has a stay-cool bottom so it can be placed safely on the dining table. Other features include a clock/timer that can be programmed up to 24 hours in advance for making wake-up coffee, an automatic pause when the carafe is removed for a midbrew pour, an automatic two-hour shutoff for safety and ease of mind, a window on the water reservoir with easy-to-read calibrations, and a swing-out, dishwasher-safe filter basket. The coffeemaker, clad in plastic, measures 9-3/4 inches wide (including carafe handle), 15 inches high, and 10 inches deep. –Fred Brack

I like my coffee hot, this not so much. I purchased this item, because I love how a thermal pot keeps the coffee hot and sealed from the air. Keeping coffee on a burner makes it scummy and the air makes it bitter.This item did pass muster on both of those requirements. However, having worked food service for most of my life, I was seriously disappointed with this carafe. The top is drippy and lets out too much heat. Two hours is not impressive, the old cafe flip tops do a better job than this thing did. Also, if you have…
MOLDY AND DISGUSTING!!!! I had this coffee maker for about a year and loved it at first! It kept the coffee hot and was convenient. After about a month or so I kept smelling a hint of a moldy smell and couldn’t figure out what it was from. Dark things started showing up in my coffee and I dismissed it as coffee grounds. When I had it for about 10 months my father actually realized the smell was coming from the lid and we broke the lid open -inside the lid was literally covered in slimey mold. It was gross! I…
