I've had many Cuisinart coffee makers over the past 30 years. They are the best maker out there. But this simple 12-cup model is my favorite of all. It is so easy to set up and use. Highly recommend this model and in my opinion, there is no other manufacturer you should consider.
Easy to use. Coffee is kept at the perfect temperature. Programing has lots of options but still simple to use. Programing light indicator can be seen with a glance. The Display is very clear and can read clock from across the room. Very happy with this purchase.
Our old Cuisinart coffee maker lasted forever. When we looked for a replacement, we bought essentially the same thing. We love that it didn't have a lot of bells and whistles to go wrong. Simple to operate, it makes perfect coffee every time, and doesn't take up a lot of space on our countertop. The filters , basket, and carafe are all replaceable, and they didn't discontinue parts. The white finish is perfect in our white kitchen, and is easy to keep clean. Absolutely buy this!
This is our 3rd Cuisinart and we love the features and price. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star review is that the pouring spout is not the greatest. When the pot is relatively full, if you pour too quickly, it dribbles down the front and spills. As long as you pour it VERY slowly, it is fine but it is a little inconvenient. Other than that, it is a GREAT coffee maker!
