Score: 62/100Rankings

The Black+Decker CM618 is an ultra-compact single-serve coffeemaker that brews directly into an included 16-oz travel mug, offering a reusable filter and one-touch operation. Its trade-offs include a small 5-oz cup size and limited water capacity, making it best suited for solo drinkers with tight counter space.

The Mixpresso Personal Single-Serve Coffee Maker combines a compact drip brewer with a built-in 14-oz travel mug and reusable filter for on-the-go convenience. Its limitations are a modest water-tank size and average coffee flavor, ideal for travelers and dorm dwellers who prioritize portability.

Professional reviewers and editors commend the CM618 for its ultra-compact size, simple one-touch operation, and cost-saving reusable filter, positioning it as an ideal minimalist coffee solution. However, they also note its limited 5-oz brew capacity and absence of programmable or warming features place it behind more feature-rich competitors.
Everyday users praise the machine for taking up almost no counter space, brewing directly into the included travel mug, and offering flexibility with grounds or pods.
