Title: Broke before I could make the first cup of coffee...
Product review: I purchased this last night. I should have read the reviews here first.When I got home, I first ran it through a cycle with only water and no coffee like the instructions said. Then I added a pod to make the first cup, and when I was closing the lid, the coffee machine broke in two. When pulling the lever forward to lock the pod in place (which is very hard due to the flimsy construction), a piece of plastic broke at the back of the base breaking the machine into 2 pieces and exposing the guts of the machine.I took it back this morning for a refund and purchased the Senseo. The Senseo is definitely built better and it's much easier to work the pod door.Black & Decker needs to go back to the drawing board on their machine. The concept is good, but it's unbelievable they would put a product this bad on the market. It's not only bad for them, but it's bad for the coffee makers (Foldgers, etc) that support this piece of junk.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
