Braun BrewSense 12-Cup Drip Coffee Maker w/ 24 Hour Timer, 2 Brew Styles | Smart Cleaning Features, Anti-Drip System, 1-4 Cup Sizing, Bold and Regular Strength Brewing, 24 Hour Programmable Timer

LOVE, love, love this coffee maker. Cant tell you how many others I have sitting in my garage to give away. This is perfectly simple and does everything it is supposed to do in a beautiful and tasty way! Makes awesome coffee in a jiffy and does not have a huge footprint on the counter, very compact. Cant go wrong with this machine!

The perfect coffee maker with the 'right' amount of features for me.After having a bad coffee maker, I went on a quest to find the best coffee maker for me.I bought this coffee maker during their black Friday sale. It's a bit pricey but worth it, considering I rely on it EVERY morning. It's absolutely perfect after a month of use with no signs of wear.The clock is easy to set and is actually reliable. (My previous coffee maker forced me to adjust the clock every day by 2 minutes)The auto on feature has worked flawlessly.The auto off feature allows for up to a full 5 hours of perfectly heated coffee. (You can adjust the temperature if necessary)The coffee filter holder is removable so you can throw your old grounds out without making a mess. It's also a bit larger than most which allows the coffee grounds to expand without any water leaking out.The carafe has a normal thumb press hinge lid on it which allows you to fill and measure your water easily. (I actually like the built in measuring system in the tank itself, I thought I'd miss the water fill window but I don't)The separate lights make it easy to discern which state your coffee maker is in. Example: Your spouse makes coffee and sets the auto on for the morning without telling you. You go to prepare coffee for the morning but a mere glance tells you it's already prepared.Easy to clean and I expect this to last due to the quality of the build.Finally, a coffee maker I can trust.

I purchased mine November of 2016 and it still works like new. If you're looking for a dependable easy to use coffee maker this is it. Makes a regular or bold cup of delicious coffee. Keep warm feature has three heat settings. Clean light automatically comes on when it's time for descaling. Has a filter for the water. Easy to use clock settings with automatic start feature. Uses #4 cone filters and comes with a gold cone filter. Great coffee maker well worth the price.

It is a big deal for us to purchase a coffee maker, as it is used every day faithfully. We also rely on the timer because we get up early & want to be able to grind/prep the machine the night before.Functionality: exceptional. Hands down one of the best we have owned. Every feature is simple. We could have done all of it without ever glancing at the instruction manual. We like the option to make a stronger brew & to adjust the temp of the hot plate. The timer has worked well, the display is easy to read. THE BEST thing which to be honest was the top reason I bought this coffee maker is it DOES NOT BEEP or make a sound when the pot is done brewing. When our kids are still asleep at 5am, we really don't need any noises echoing through the house. We just know that it will be waiting for us when we get up at our regular time.Quality: iffy. The jury is still out. The lid seems flimsy & makes a popping sound every time we raise it which sounds like it is breaking, but definitely "normal." The glass carafe also seems flimsy. The lid already has scrape marks from pulling it out to pour. The glass is already stained. It makes little sounds when you pour the water in that worry me it won't be long for this world. Feels lighter than average. That said, everything is intact so far.Overall I would recommend this coffee maker. My husband absolutely loves it. Coffee tastes excellent, which is the most important thing. We had a Cuisinart for about 10 years but took a chance on this despite inconsistent reviews. We do not have trouble pouring the coffee. It is also a very attractive machine on our countertop & looks amazing with our stainless/black appliances.

S far, we really like this Braun coffee maker. It makes very good coffee, with options for auto on auto off, strength of coffee, warming plate, temperature, number of cups to be brewed, etc. it took me a while to get everything figured out, but I think I have it now! The coffee maker is sleek, looking and compact. I’ve been using the gold filter rather than using paper filters, and the coffee is great. Easy to clean up as well. I did quite a bit of hunting for a coffee maker this time. I have been using a Keurig K cup machine and was tired of the expense of the pods as well as the amount of waste I was creating and having to get rid of. Try out the Braun Brew Sense!

Hello, we purchased this coffee maker in July 2024 and had continuous problems for the last 4 months. The issue we experienced involved cleaning the machine, being forced to clean the machine, the cleaning button coming on without prompting and constant delays in actually making coffee. The machine continually went into cleaning mode by itself while we awaited coffee. We were forced to clean this machine over five times in 4 months of very little usage.We contacted customer support once by phone and a gentleman at Braun helped us reset the clean button, however the problem continued and when we attempted to contact Braun again, we reached Ronnie at Braun customer support for a refund by email. We received only a generic cleaning response and he did not address any of our concerns regarding a solution, just acted like it never happened. This type of unaccountability is what is causing us to respond now on Amazon and leaves no room to continue to work with this company moving forward.This machine seems to be the overall pick at Amazon, however, in our experience, this coffeemaker was the most troublesome coffee maker we ever had in over five decades, often leaving us with hot, cleaning water instead of coffee. Most importantly, we had no recourse for refund, replacement or return and we have been essentially ignored regarding any request for a solution.In closing, over $109.00 was spent for a coffee maker that has not worked properly since purchase and only used for four months and instead of showing us the courtesy of any solution, Ronnie at Braun acted like our complaint never happened in his email response. We have tossed this coffee maker in the garbage due to it being more hassle than it is worth and purchased a new coffeemaker from a company that will actually stand behind their products. Respectfully, stay away from Braun until they hire new leadership. Thanks, Eric

I bought this back in 2018 & it's 2026 & really works great. I had been worried that steam would eventually ruin the above button controls, but never did. Great Machine.

Spent quite a while skimming through reviews on here and on other websites. I ultimately landed on this coffee maker. I wanted something that looked sleek and modern, something that didn't take up too much counter space. I was coming from a Krups Cafe Duomo II; never used the espresso side of it so I couldn't comment on that, but after a year of use (it was hand me down that was never used, so it was like-new condition), I realized other coffee makers made hotter coffee. My parents who gave it to me initially have a Keurig, which I liked because we only really use one serving of coffee usually, but I hated how they looked. Kitchenaid made a nice looking personal size coffee maker but the thing was darn tall. Their drip coffee makers looked pretty awesome too, but reviews were lukewarm (no pun intended). I started leaning towards Bonavita, it was sub $150, had, stellar reviews, but when I saw a video review the thing looked maybe as big as the Krups Cafe Duomo II that I had, so that was nixed. Everything else I liked was above $150, then I stumbled on this. Reviews about coffee quality seem to be above par, it took up a lot less space (not as tall as the kitchenaid variants as well), had that stainless look I wanted, but not too much where it looked cheap like the cheaper coffee makers that just looked gimmicky. So I went with this one and don't regret it. The coffee comes out piping hot, the warm plate seems to keep it fairly warm (has multiple settings as well if you don't like it too hot), there's a cleaning reminder on it, bold and regular settings. The carafe doesn't seem to drip (did one time because we poured way too fast, like dumping the coffee out), and anti-drip system seems to work well too (Krups would leak when it would stop mid flow). You can purchase a thermo carafe if you choose so from Braun as well if you wanted that. I love how there is no steam that comes out from this unit like cheaper units and my previous Krups did. You don't see condensation on top. They made it form instead and drip back into the water well, so you can turn it on and push it back under the cabinets without worrying about moisture getting on your wooden cabinets. The water well is a little smaller, but we haven't had issues; we pour from the mug to measure how much coffee we make. The only things I didn't like were the buttons felt a little spongy (not premium), and that "premium" display looks really cheap (contrast is lacking, no brightness settings, cant keep it off unless you unplug it). One thing that would make this even better is if the lid was slow closing mechanism so it doesn't slam (for something about $80+ depending on the finish you get). Minor things, I would get this 4.5/5 if I could, but rounded up because I'm really happy with the quality of coffee this makes (not a coffee conosuier by any chance though, but it tastes a lot better now, much smoother and hotter).

Really happy with this coffee maker. The coffee tastes great and stays hot without tasting burnt. I like the Bold option and the pause feature when I want to grab a cup before it’s done.It’s simple to use, easy to clean, and looks nice on the counter. Good quality for the price. I definitely recommend it.

La cafetera es bellísima, tanto el diseño como la construcción y detalles son muy bonitos. Es muy intuitiva y rápida: en más o menos 14 minutos hace toda la jarra de café. El filtro es permanente así que no hay necesidad de estar contaminando con filtros desechables. Tiene buena capacidad, el sistema de auto encendido funciona perfectamente. Tiene función para elegir el grado de dureza del agua. La jarra es muy bonita, fácil de limpiar y todos los aditamentos son aptos para lavavajillas. El reloj es bastante grande y claro, si la energía eléctrica se corta o la desconectas para limpiarla, cuentas con hasta un minuto sin energía antes de que se pierda la programación lo cual es muy auxiliar. La temperatura que alcanza es ideal. La placa de calefacción ayuda a que el café se mantenga caliente por mucho tiempo, si el tanque está vacío, se puede encender la cafetera y la placa se calentará para recalentar el café, es una función muy útil. El único contra que le pongl es que con la función de 1-4 tazas, si el depósito de agua está lleno, no se detiene, seguirá produciendo café así que es importante solo llenar el depósito con la cantidad exacta de café a preparar, fuera de ello, el resto es perfecto. Muy contento con la compra.

Muy buena, calienta el café por 5 horas

I originally bought the Krups which was ok but made an aweful and high pitched beep for about 8 seconds when I pressed brew at 5am.... so rude! Then I chose this brand and model to replace it and couldn’t be happier! Got it way discounted from amazon warehouse deal, sometimes you get junk but this was a great buy! So many features and options and I don’t understand why people complain about not having a see through water detector... just fill the pot to how many cups you want and pour it in....it is a very nice looking machine although the lights are all green and I wish they were blue, but every button lights up which is nice so you see what setting you are using. It can stay hot up to 5hiurs with auto off setting and it makes amazing coffee. Love that it stops brewing mid brew so I can pour a coffee and it won’t leak everywhere. It’s easy to clean and I would buy it again and recommend it to everyone! Arrived a few days late and thought it wasn’t lost, but was so happy when it came because it was $60 less than brand new even thought it came in the box and wrapped/twist tied and plasticity like it was brand new!

Looks good. Easy to operate and makes a good cup of coffee. Being able to adjust the temperature of the warming plate is a nice feature. My experience is that I can leave the coffee on the lower setting and it does not turn the coffee bitter as quickly as other products we have used.Not sure but I think after brewing is complete and the pot is removed the maker may allow a drip on to the warmer plate as there are occassions when there is a sizzling sound when the pot is returned.
