Nonfunctioning Lights by S. Ferguson
While this coffeemaker brews great java without the need for a carafe, I found the instruction booklet vague when it came to identifying the four lighted buttons on this product, exactly what functions they perform, and whether or not they are actually supposed to light up. The only button of these four that seems to light is the On/Off” button, in red. None of the others work, and I can only tell the green “Program” is working when I hear the BrewStation brewing. Also, the booklet doesn’t explain what it means by “Flavor+” - do you press it before or after “Program”? It also doesn’t explain exactly what the “1-4 Cups” option means. Is this button supposed to light up when only 1-4 cups remain in the tank, or when you want to brew 1-4 cups? I don’t know whether or not these last two options are even working, since their buttons don’t light up. Other than the buttons not lighting up and the basically useless instruction booklet, I do like this machine.

By the way, this a replacement BrewStation. I returned the first one since I was having the very same problems with the lights that I’m having now, figuring it was defective. Apparently they all work (or don’t work) like this!!!

A great improvement by M. Aronoff
We have owned an older model of the HB for a while and were disappointed when it finally died on us. But after getting this current model, we found it has been significantly redesigned and improved upon.

It is nice to not have to fool around with the glass carafes. The updated Brewstation has taken on a new high tech design, while keeping the basic functions intact. All the controls and the clock have been relocated to the side. It is easier to fill the tank without spilling water than on the old model, although still not perfect in that respect.

The new model keeps the coffee warm for just 2 hours., instead of the 2-3-4 hr. feature of the old model. But often, if I want to keep the coffee warm after 2 hrs., I hit the on button and I have found that the coffee still tastes good after another hour or so.

This machine is an absolute breeze to program. The coffee has a wonderful flavor to it. We are very satisfied with the machine.

The only real negative is that they have just a very narrow slit in the front to see how much coffee is in the tank. Very difficult to see. Maybe on the next version they can correct that problem. But despite that small drawback, I rate this as an excellent coffee maker.

Great coffeemaker by shrutz
I have had this product for about a month now and so far it’s fabulous. It’s fast, easy to clean and has a water filter in it that you change out periodically. The only thing I don’t like about it is that it is a bit bulky, I have cabinets over all my counter space so can not open and close it without pulling the machine way out. I would probably have that problem with many machines tho unless I went with a 2-4 cup coffee machine. I am happy with my purchase and have been enjoying some great coffee :)

Makes decent coffee but heat timer too short by Robert Crain
I bought this coffee maker for the office and while it works fine, the heat timer is too short (2 hours). As far as I can tell, there is no way to extend the timer. I have to hit the “On” button again when I notice that it has automatically turned off.

The coffee is fine and the temperature of the brewed coffee seems hot enough. So far, no leaks and it has worked flawlessly otherwise. I would recommend it to others. I bought it to alleviate handling a glass carafe as well as prevent the “bitterness” that is common with the coffee cooking for hours on the hot plate. Plus, it saves on electricity since according to the promos, it uses less electricity to keep it warm in the self contained unit.

I gave it four stars because its not outstanding but its a good buy for the price. Its a good coffee maker that met my needs.
