  • Our take on the Mainstays 12 Cup Coffee Maker

    The Mainstays 12 Cup Coffee Maker is a basic drip brewer with a glass carafe, a 12-cup capacity and a small footprint of about 5.3 by 8.1 inches. It keeps things simple: one switch, a drip-stop valve so you can pour a cup mid-brew, and automatic shutdown. It has no grinder, no timer and no app control, so it suits people who want a cheap, no-frills pot of coffee rather than programmable convenience. Against rivals like Mr. Coffee and Black+Decker, it gives up programmability and a clock but covers the essentials.

    Questions and answers

    Does it have a programmable timer?
    No. It is a manual brewer with a single switch, so there is no clock, auto-start or brew-strength setting.
    Can I pour a cup while it is brewing?
    Yes. The drip-stop valve lets you pull the carafe out mid-cycle for a cup, though the flow pauses until you put it back.
    Does it grind beans?
    No. It takes pre-ground coffee, so you need a separate grinder for whole beans.
    How many cups does it make?
    It is rated for 12 cups, roughly 0.48 gallons. Cup sizes here are the small standard measure, not 12-ounce mugs.
    Does it shut off on its own?
    Yes. Automatic shutdown turns off the warming plate, so you don't have to remember.
    What comes in the box?
    The brewer and one glass carafe with its lid. Filters are not included, so buy basket-style paper filters.
    Where is the Mainstays 12 Cup Coffee Maker cheapest?
    At Walmart, for $16.88, as of our latest check.
