Every organization needs at least one of these large-capacity coffeemakers for group meetings. Attractive enough for a corporate ballroom, handy as all get-out for those family reunions, this model by West Bend features a highly polished aluminum case with black trim, an aluminum interior, a two-way dripless faucet, a cool-tip filter basket (no paper filter needed), and a detachable two-foot cord for easy storage. Best of all, the coffeemaker brews 12 to 42 cups quickly, up to one cup per minute. Or it can be used to heat water for tea and instant drinks. The coffeemaker stands 17 inches high and is covered with a one-year warranty. --Ann Bieri
