Caught Fire! Do not buy
We bought this coffee maker for a rental property and it literally caught fire and melted a brand new countertop. Sunbeam refused to take responsibility and actually claimed that we must have removed the thermostat from within the faulty product. Avoid this coffee maker at all costs!

Had this for around a month now so far so good it wakes me up with the aroma of Brazilian ground coffee and gets me out of bed quick smart, thanks for the timer easy setup, have had no problems so far, true it is not really hot after dripped but I just put a little milk in my mug then in the micro for 1 min then with a magic whisk froth the milk then pour in the coffee must say its very nice and creamy,I like it.

I purchased my 3rd sunbeam PC7900 yesterday from Big W and we enjoyed our coffee this morning.

However after washing the carafe it cracked then fell apart under the handle! After reading the reviews on here it seam to be a common issue. I wish I had read these review before purchasing it. I have contacted customer support and hopefully I'll get some assistance in the matter.

I have always used sunbeam and never had an issues, i had never purchased this model before though. Will now wait and see what they say.

I bought this unit for my husband who loves to experiment with coffees,the unit works well,is easy to clean,brews a nice coffee but unfortunately even after leaving it on the hot plate,the coffee is lukewarm...not even close to warm,We have to put the coffee cups in the microwave afterwards,defeats the purpose...
Makes nice coffee..easy to clean
Just can't get a hot cupper without putting it in the microwave

Had this machine for just over 12 months so the warranty is shot. The on/off button is not turning on ergo cold coffee. It worked earlier today but when i went to reheat after 2 hours as the heater switches off after 2 hours the light is not working and no heat.
Always found it fine, coffee could be hotter

Bought this for my partner for his birthday today as he loves his coffee, we set it up according to the manual and have waited 2hours- water isnt heating, no water coming out into the carach... totally and utterly disappointed we were so excited to get it up and running but all has turned to S**t!!!!!!!!!!!

everything

Very disappointed with this unit. Have to use double the (recommended)amount of ground coffee to get a half decent cup of coffee.. Had a competitors equivalent for years and no complaints. This unit also does not appear to provide hot enough coffee - maybe the reason for weak coffee result.
Like the look of unit
Brews weak Luke warm coffee -seems to have poor extraction on fresh ground beans

We have used this machine on average 5 days a week for 14 months with no problems and enjoyed a great cup of coffee without a huge expense. It produces lovely coffee with easy. We have been very careful with the pot in particular, but despite our care the side busted out suddenly during a simple hand wash. The glass is extremely thin. I had expected it to last a little longer.
great coffee and easy to use even when you are half asleep!
the carafe suddenly broke despite good care during washes

I've had this machine for a good month now & I really like it. It's easy to use, easy to clean & I find the temperature of the coffee to be perfect (I don't like my mouth to be burnt to a crisp, but that's just me!) The timer is very easy to use as well.
Temperature of coffee, ease of use.

This machine makes a very poor product. Very heavy on coffee grounds, or a very weak drink. Not hot enough. water flows too fast causing the grounds to overflow the basket, and prevent the stop valve from working, obstructing inlet holes in top of karafe and causing water to run down onto the hotplate.
Looks great
A very "Yuk" drink of coffee

It is a hot coffee not a scalding one. Set the timer and wake upto the. Coffee smell. Makes my day. Programable timer is extremely simple to use. When I want a coffee it's there already made in the morning and at the right temperature to drink straight away. Easy to use easy to set up in the morning. A no fuss fresh cup of coffee in the morning from whatever bees you want.
Simple clock and programable.
If you like your coffee steaming hot it's not for you

Ours is a temperamental little thing. Sometimes it works but sometimes the water gets in the buttons and they don't work. I think we need to get it replaced on warranty. I agree with the lukewarm coffee. I usually heat the milk up. Still, a nifty little machine. We love it.
Good coffee, fairly quick.
Water in buttons.

Water out of my tap makes a hotter brew!! even after leaving the pot sit on the hot plate for one hour then one and half hours, then 30 minutes, still the same result very lukeworm coffee so to make the cupper hot enough to enjoy placed in microwave and for 20 seconds Wow the cupper was enjoyable!!!
easy to program
will not make a hot brew
