Single Cup Coffee Maker Review

(More customer reviews)Additional comment, 2009: My original review is below, but here's what happened eventually: The machine started to leak like crazy. It had a lifespan of about 18 months.
Original review:
I have no interest in pod-coffee (I roast my own beans), so that limited my choices when I decided to take my all-white-plastic Black and Decker one-cupper to the office, and spring for a better-looking pot for home.
This stainless and black-plastic machine makes very good coffee indeed, looks terrific and cleans up quickly and beautifully. (I've used the white one for years and it looks dreadful at this point). I congratulate myself on this purchase.
As for the amount it makes: a standard mug. I wouldn't want it any bigger. All my mugs fit into it and I prefer two fresh cups to one big stale one.
I use unbleached No. 1 coffee filters (or cut down bigger ones if I can't find No.1s) instead of the permanent filter it came with because the paper picks up residual oil, is easy to clean up, and the used grounds all end up in the compost or trash, not down the drain.
