Overview
A 900W, 12-cup drip coffee maker with programmable brew timing up to 24 hours ahead, an LCD display, and auto shutoff, in Bella's oatmilk color.
The programmable timer and regular or bold strength choice cover the basics of a daily drip machine, and the carafe's mixing tube is meant to keep flavor consistent from the first cup to the last. It replaces older machines well by most accounts, though a few report it not lasting as long as the unit it replaced.
- 900W, 12-cup capacity
- Programmable brew timer, up to 24 hours ahead
- Regular or bold strength selection
- LCD display with auto shutoff
Who it's for
Anyone replacing an aging drip coffee maker who wants a compact footprint, auto shutoff, and a brew-ahead timer without stepping up to a pod machine.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Buyers who replaced older machines with this one generally liked the compact size, quiet operation, and consistently hot first cup. A few flagged that the buttons need to be pressed while holding the unit steady since it can shift, that the reservoir's cup lines are hard to read, and one unit stopped brewing after three months, which Bella's customer service resolved with a refund.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Compact footprint suits small counters
- Keeps the first cup notably hot
- Auto shutoff ends the cycle unattended
- Buttons sit horizontally, hold unit steady when pressing
- Reservoir cup markings are hard to read
- One unit stopped brewing within three months
Performance notes
The LCD display controls a 24 hour brew timer and a choice of regular or bold strength, with auto shutoff ending the cycle without user intervention. The carafe uses a mixing tube designed to even out flavor between the first and last cup poured.
