Black & Decker SDC740B SpaceMaker 12-Cup Coffeemaker, Black Overpriced and shoddy


Nosedive product, (What's this?) I have had 3 B & D spacemaker coffee makers over many years which worked great. My last one would not make nor keep the coffee hot and died within 7 months. Black & Decker lost the formula for a great product.
I've had 4 of these Spacemaker Coffee makers, (What's this?) The holes drilled in the cabinet have been used by all 4 of my coffe makers by Black and Decker Spacemaker. Even though each lasted many years, I can buy a newer one and still put it in myself w/o making new holes. Convenient, good coffee, pretty, simple to replace. The oldest one leaked water, next, was an 8-cup Thermal (not enough when company came and had to microwave cup of coffee to warm it up to temp. ) Now, with the newest one; I'm enjoying my morning coffee. I like the Programing too, coffee is ready when I wake up. I purchased it with the help of Amazon...my computer skills are limited, but I was instructed very well.
Sorely dissapointed., Similar to other reviewers we've had several of the spacemaker appliances over the years. When we moved into our new place we couldn't wait to get a new set!

Man, we soooo should have kept the old ones.

Problems:

Installation - like others have stated the template was a joke and this ended up taking us HOURS to install/correct, etc. Nothing like the previous models.

Water Reservoir - pretty much useless as originally intended.
Black and Decker Coffee Pot SDC740B, (
spacemaker 12 cup coffeemaker, this coffeemaker is wonderful, a little difficult to understand the directions but you can do it. Many people found it impossible to install single handed but I used masking tape to hold the spacers in place and ran the screws through it in order to do it myself. I just love it. I have the grinder as well!! 5, 5, 5, all the way.
wouldn't buy it, My husband wanted this coffee maker just to save counter space. I would not buy another and hope this one dies a quick death. It leaks from the water side and also from the basket. we are always wiping up water. Also it is hard to fill the water tank, it does not sit level. Also the tank has been leaking after filling it and setting it in the maker.
It was difficult to install and the temp plate did not work well with our cabinets. Don't see where it really saves counter space. Had to purchase this because it was the only one my husband wanted.
Works OK But Pieces Fall Into The Basket, (What's this?) Like The Styling. Functionaly, So Far It Working.But The The Water Spreader Above The Coffee Basket Will Not Stay In Place, Snap It In Make A Pot, And It Will Be Laying In The Grounds When You Go To Clean It. Finally Gave Up, Threw It In A Drawer, And Have Forgot About It Untill Now. Other Than That Makes A Normal Pot Of Coffee. Oh The Pots A Little Hard To Handle. The Lid and Grip Is Very Long And Makes It A Little Unwieldey. If You Need The Space It Is Acceptable If You Have Room On The Counter There Are Better.
bad coffee maker, this is a bad coffee maker do not buy it, the coffee is not hot,you cannot see the digital window its not lit up , the hole to put water in resivory is to small and you can"t see how much water you put in as it moves up and down like a tidal wave.
Overpriced and shoddy, First of all, this makes a tasty cup of coffee and looks awesome once you get it installed. Mine doesn't leak (a few other reviewers had that complaint). It brews quickly. Someone involved in the design of this coffee maker was a smart and practical engineer.

Then... there must have been a bean counter there to thin the product.

The materials used were bad enough that I would have returned this had it not been a gift from my mother (via Amazon's wish list).
Love it!, (What's this?) This makes excellent coffee & is easy to set up. I love the extra counter space that I have now that I don't have a coffeemaker sitting on the counter. Installation was quick & easy.
