This coffee maker has a bright blue light that shows the time. This light is so bright that it is annoying, both day and night . It lights up the whole room it is in and does not dim for evening. Aside from this, the coffee maker has really not changed over the years. If you are a lover of Cuisinart products, this is for you
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts on this coffee maker. We’re sorry to hear the display light is brighter than expected—some customers find that repositioning the unit, using ambient lighting, or covering the display during nighttime hours can help if a dimming feature is not available on the model. Thank you for your feedback—it helps us continue making improvements for future models.

This is our second Cuisinart coffee maker. The first one we bought lasted so long and was so reliable, that we chose Cuisinart again. We love having the 14 cup size and we make coffee every day.
