This is my 4th Cuisinart coffeemaker, & by far the best. It is easy to set up, use, & clean, & most importantly, it makes the coffee nice & hot . I always have to microwave my coffee after I pour it, as it is never hot enough. With this one, it is steaming - love it!
My Cuisinart Coffee Maker would have a 5 Star review if the pot and lid design were better. The coffee pot top edge had a lip that prevents all the coffee from being poured into your cup. The lid isn't the best design either because the coffee doesn't brew into the pot cleanly, and over time, it will get too stained.
PRO: controls are very easy to use CON: coffee is too hot 195 degrees, lid should be hinged, very difficult for arthritic fingers to remove. opening to fill reservoir is very small and difficult to do without spillage. carafe doesn't empty out, leaving some in the pot
I purchased this on 1/06/2021. I liked the size and features of this coffee maker. However after nearly a year this product started turning off and on which to me was a safety issue. I called the warranty number and they said would ship me replacement.I called again two weeks later. Same answer. Now after a month Nothing. If they don't make this good I will buy another brand. Very disappointed with Cuisinart.
Clean design, no drips when pouring, tasty, always nice and hot coffee. Wish the blue light on the clock was not always on and I remain confused about how to manage to brew a less than full pot.
