My old Mr. Coffee finally bit the dust and I need something reliable. Don't need anything fancy, just something that makes decent coffee without breaking the bank. Saw some Cuisinarts and Ninja ones on Amazon. Has anyone had good luck with any of these brands?
Honestly just grab a Bunn or a Technivorm Moccamaster if you can stretch to the higher end of your budget. I went cheap twice and ended up replacing them both. The $80-90 range is where quality actually starts.
I've been using a basic Technivorm for five years. Not under $100 but it's built to last and makes solid coffee. If you want to stay under budget, Oxo has some good options around $80.
OXO brew seems to be the sweet spot for quality and price. My parents got one and it's held up through a lot of morning chaos. Nothing fancy but it does exactly what you need.
Can't go wrong with a simple drip machine. I've had the same Cuisinart for eight years and it just works. Black and Decker makes solid ones too if you want the cheapest option.

Mr. Coffee was a good soldier. If it lasted you this long, you can probably go with pretty much any mid-range brewer and be happy. I use a Ninja and it's been solid for like 3 years.
Don't cheap out on this one. You drink coffee every day right? That's like an investment in your sanity at this point.
