I have a Mr. Coffee coffee maker. I don't know the model because I've had the same one for the past 10 years. It works fantastic. I bought it in black so it still looks very clean. It turns itself off after about 2 hours. I'm amazed this thing has not died yet. I make a pot every single day (sometimes two). I've even taken it camping with me. I'm confused by the negative views. Maybe a different model? Mine looks like the picture, except in black.
