I replaced a very old Cuisinart coffeemaker which was still working, but I felt like it wasn't heating up the coffee as much as it used to, so I'd have to keep microwaving it once it was poured. This one looked much nicer, so I decided to give it a try. I'm a little disappointed, because the brewed coffee doesn't seem as hot as advertised, even though I choose the high heat setting. The pot is larger than the one I had before, and it's impossible to pour all the water into the chamber without making a mess. There is no way to do it, unless you pour the water into a different container first (which is not convenient) or pour from a great height, which isn't practical. On the plus side, it looks nicer than the old one and is easy to program. Not sure I'd recommend it to a friend.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This coffee pot is one of the best I've ever had. Actually it is the 2nd one. The first one my husband bought at a garage sale and it lasted 8+ years. Now with a new pot, I'm sure it will last for many many years. It is easy to program and brews quickly. Always a good cup of coffee.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This coffee maker has a lot to love; it's easily programmable, keeps the coffee nice and hot for two hours, and easy to load and brew! The problem is the carafe. The lines on the side are not accurate. If you want to fill the coffeemaker with 10 cups of water, we must be sure that it is filled to almost 12 cups. Filling the coffeemaker with water is a challenge because the carafe invariably spills water over the side and onto the counter. The spout of the carafe is just not good; even with the top on! It leaks slightly when we pour coffee virtually every time! Other than that, it;s the probably the best coffeemaker out there because it makes good coffee and keeps it hot!
I would recommend this to a friend!
