Strengths: Love the dispenser, easy to clean, keeps coffee hot
Weaknesses: none found
Summary: This coffeemaker is very easy to operate. Make sure to clean the inside lid, if not the residue will enter the reservoir and the dispensing button will stick.There is no glass to break. I enjoy this machine.

Strengths: Keeps the coffee extremely hot and flavorful!
Weaknesses: shuts off after two hours as most do.
Summary: The Hamilton Beach Brewstation coffee maker is positively the best coffee maker I have ever had! I always hated other coffee makers that never kept the coffee hot enough.. brewstation keeps it piping hot and flavorful! A definite keeper and I can't break the caraffe becuase there is none!

Strengths: Keeps coffee very hot, no glass decanter to get broken, seems to be easier to brew coffee without making a general mess
Weaknesses: None that we have noticed yet
Summary: Although I haven't owned this particular type of maker for very long, it has been everything I expected it to be so far. After going through several different coffee makers, priced from 4.99-59.99, with them ending with either a broken decanter or just plain breaking down, I think I have found a keeper. The most obvious feature that drew me to this coffee maker was the fact there was no glass decanter to get broken. All our floors are tile, and when these pots hit the floor, they break in a million pieces and it's very difficult to get every piece of glass cleaned up. Add to that the pitter patter of little bare feet of several children, and it's a disaster waiting to happen. So I was very happy to find a glassless coffee maker, as my husband has a tendency to break the glass pots. I have also noticed that he seems to make less mess while preparing the coffee. I haven't seen any spilled grounds or coffee since we've had this machine. My husband likes it because it keeps the unused coffee very hot. It's like having a fresh brewed cup everytime he pours one. I haven't noticed anything I haven't liked about the maker yet. I read other reviews where some mentioned the plastic like taste of the coffee. I haven't noticed that, but I'm thinking that may be because they didn't follow the instructions that advised to run plain vinegar through, let it sit for 20 minutes, then cool, then run through up to 3 plain water cycles, letting it cool between each run.

 I made about 30 to 40 pots of coffee in it and it ... Strengths: It's fast,stays hot and taste great.
Weaknesses: Well I got my first Brew Station about 3 months ago, It lasted 1 month,I took it back to Wal Mart got another and it lasted under a month, I took it back but did not get another one.
Summary: 2003-11-14 08:32:22 I made about 30 to 40 pots of coffee in it and it was great, but then it just stopped pumping the water. The heat plate worked but the pump stopped. I had the Brew Station 47114 both tomes, I got it at Wal Mart for $39.00 a great price if it would have worked.
Thank you Ruby Emigh

Strengths: No glass pot to break or stain. Sneak-a-cup feature. Easy to use. Keeps the coffee super hot.
Weaknesses: None.
Summary: We absolutely love this machine. Coffee smells like coffee not burned or charred. I can't believe how easy it is to use and keep clean. A permanent filter fits in nicely and leaves no grounds in the coffee. I will never go back to a glass pot!!

Strengths: None
Weaknesses: Safety Hazard
Summary: This coffee maker could be a safety hazard. When you lift the lid water drains from the inside of the lid to the rear of the coffee maker onto the countertop. If you uplug the coffeemaker you could possibly be shocked if the mess is not cleaned up. I have notified Hamilton Beach but so far no results just the usual runaround. I would not use this coffee maker or purchase one.

 Hamilton Beach BrewStation Strengths: coffee comes out real hot
Weaknesses: when the coffee in my cup gets cold as it usually does, i pour it back into the decanter then pour hot coffee, we can
Summary: actually i have never broken a glass pot so this is not necessarily a benefit not to have one, but when my coffee gets cold i like to pour it back in the pot to heat it up a little (much to my wifes chagrin). if there was some way to pour back into the decanter without having to remove the grounds basket, it would be better for me

Weaknesses: The coffee maker is a bit large and takes up counter space.
Summary: So far, I really enjoy this new product. The black color is nice and clean. There is no worry about getting coffee stains on it. The large, bulky size, however, is a drawback. We do enjoy the fact that there is no carafe to break or wash! The coffee is dispensed nice and hot.

Strengths: durable,no spill,easy to clean
Weaknesses: no timer
Summary: Great! I bought 3 of them as X-Mas presents! My biggest complaint was leaky coffee makers, this is great! No glass carafe to worry about getting broken. The plastic does not have any taste to it either.

Strengths: No carafe, no burnt coffee smell or taste, handy dispenser.
Weaknesses: Larger than normal coffee maker, water resevoir opening rather narrow.
Summary: I broke the carafe on my old machine and the replacement never did work properly. My old one was white and hard to keep looking clean where this one will not have that problem.

Strengths: Simple to use. Easy to clean. Great tasting coffee. No carafe to break.
Weaknesses: A bit bulky.
Summary: After going through 2 percolators in less than a year, I decided to go back to a drip coffeemaker. I noticed this unit on display in a Walmart and was quite impressed with the features and the fact that there was no carafe to break. My only wish is that it was a bit smaller for storage purposes. Other than that, no complaints.
