Bella 14755 with Brew Strength Selector vs Salton Jumbo Java FC1667

At first I was very happy with this coffee maker. It looks classy, and matches great with my appliances. We did a couple tests side-by-side with my old coffee maker. This one takes slightly longer to make a pot of coffee, but makes much hotter coffee, well worth the extra 30-40 seconds! It seems to keep the coffee hotter after it is made as well

Otherwise, we brew coffee, then shut it down. Let's be clear, this is a budget coffee maker. I would probably not use this for my home, but it can certainly be used in that application. It's a bare bones coffee make with basic functionality and cheap parts

The heat partially popped the stainless steel front off only after a few uses, the flavor of the coffee is mediocre, and the machine has so many crevices in the top it’s impossible to clean. I had bought this to replace a brand new $30 Mr. Coffee pot that was a piece of junk and honestly this wasn’t much better.

Makes a big pot of scalding hot brew, strong but not bitter, and all the subtle notes perfectly discernible. Its basket, which forces coffee to pool and go through the sides after hot water fires out of a compact central shower seems to be the ticket. We added a paper filter to the basket to slow that even further, and the result is a cup to rival the 4 minute pour-through at your swankiest local shop! Yummy. Cheap

I finally found this one and decided to take a chance. I’m glad I did! Although it’s simple, it’s mighty. This just makes a good cup of joe. It’s simple, good coffee made simply, and wonderfully

So if you like your coffee black add more stars, and the lighter you like your coffee the less you will like this Salton coffee maker.

WONDERFUL product for the cost! I needed a basic coffee machine before I go to work and when I googled best coffee machines, they were all over $80+. This one popped up as one of the best for the price, so I bought it and it has been WONDERFUL. I love this coffee machine. I program it everyday to make me a cup of coffee in the morning before work

Please note we only use UPS when shipping to the US: FC1667-4 (Carafe): $19.50 S&H: $12.00 (via UPS) Total: $31.50 That’s quite expensive in my opinion and the next part is even worse you have to mail them a check or a money order
