Before we get into these features we should define some of the things that make a coffeemaker good for your home use. For starters, the machine should produce a good taste to any pot that it brews. This really is the most important feature and one that will leave you most satisfied. Also, you want the coffee maker to be easy to use and clean up. If you are left with a good tasting cup without a lot of hassle then you will be satisfied and more inclined to brew up your favorite gourmet flavor in your home each day.

While there are many great qualities to the Hamilton Beach Classic coffee maker there are a few minor shortcomings to it. Some people who purchased it have complained of having a hard time getting the pot back into place after pouring which results in some spillage. And others have complained that the brew pause feature sometimes doesn't 100% 'pause' which also can result in some spilling of coffee. However, these are not serious flaws with the machine but nonetheless they should be noted. It should also be noted that not everyone experiences these problems.
