Hamilton Beach 12 Cup Coffee Maker

Model #46290

★★★★☆

It makes coffee. Without any kind of bells and whistles. The plastic lid and tank feel flimsier than they actually are. They’ve held up just fine for a year.

The fill gauge on the side of the reservoir can be hard to read depending on lighting. I recommend going over the lines with a permanent marker. And checking how the numbers line up between the gauge and the coffee pot. I usually fill it to at least one past the number I want to make.
