I'm a big fan of Cuisinart coffeemakers. The primary reason for my choosing their brand and this "Perfect Temp" model, in particular, is the fact that it's one of the few on the market that verifiably heats the water hot enough to reach the temperature recommended by experts for the optimal tasting cup of coffee, which is between 195 and 205 degrees Fahrenheit. Aside from that, I like the aesthetics of the design as well as the features. The black stainless steel color of the particular model I bought looks really nice in my kitchen and goes well with my other appliances. I also like the fact that they have a setting for making only 4 cups of coffee as well as a "bold" setting, both of which I use. My last one, which was also a Cuisinart, lasted 16 years of daily use. They make quality products.

This is our third Cuisinart Coffeemaker. Our last one was about 10 years old and was as good at the end as it was when we bought it. It just quit on us. It was like losing an old friend. We replaced it with the exact same 14 cup model.

This is an awesome coffee maker. Large and small batch capable at 14 cups down to 1 cup, easy to read display, easy to program, 4 hour warmer standby time, and makes consistently excellent coffee. This is our second unit, we've had one in our Florida home for over 6 years, this one has been improved by the upgrade to the display and programming step changes.
I would recommend this to a friend!
