If you can't get out of bed without a fresh cup of java, then your coffee maker has arrived. With this new programmable, Wi-Fi-enabled Mr. Coffee, you can make your joe from bed.
The Mr. Coffee 10-Cup Smart Optimal Brew Coffeemaker with WeMo ($150) connects to your smartphone via the WeMo app, where users can set brewing times for the coming weeks. It also lets you know when the water is empty or you need to clean out the filter. You can also check in to see how much brewing time your pot has left.
Once brewing time arrives, the coffee maker heats water to 205 degrees Fahrenheit before percolating. Within eight minutes, your coffee is ready to go. Much like the Keurig brewers, the Mr. Coffee has a reservoir for the water on the side. The carafe is insulated and double-walled, helping coffee stay hot.
The maker is compatible only with iOS and Android devices for now. So if your mom uses a Windows phone, it looks like she's getting two presents this year.
