Third-party reviews

What customers like about Black+Decker CM1110B

  • The 1.77 L tank means fewer refills for a few cups.
  • The see-through tank shows the water level at a glance.
  • The display makes it easy to see what the machine is doing.
  • A cleaning alert tells you when the machine needs attention.
  • Sleep mode saves power when the machine is idle.
  • Overheat protection guards the machine if it runs hot.

What customers don't like about Black+Decker CM1110B

  • No adjustable coffee temperature.
  • No cup height adjustment, which limits the size of mug you can use.
  • No two-cup function, so brewing for two takes two rounds.
  • No milk frother or milk drink program.
  • The drip tray has no full indicator, so you check it by hand.

Verdict

Budget buyers who want to see the water level at a glance will find the Black+Decker CM1110B useful. The 1.77 L tank is clear, so you can read the water level from across the counter, and it comes out for filling at the sink. The display, a cleaning alert and sleep mode make it easy to run day to day. Overheat protection and automatic shutdown switch it off on their own, so you can leave it without a second thought. The trade-off is control and milk: there is no adjustable coffee temperature, no cup height adjustment, no two-cup function and no milk drink program. It suits someone who drinks one or two cups a day and wants a plain machine that needs no fine-tuning at all.
