Overall very happy with this unit. Only real complaint is that coffee level gage isnt real accurate, but that can be lived with. As well, it seems the basket is slightly smaller than the previous on demand model we had, and occasionally allows coffee grounds to pass over the top of the filter.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Brewing is not consistent.

I was so excited to find a single serve coffee maker that doesn’t require pods, but I really prefer to brew just one cup of coffee. The first cup was great, but now, I’m having problems with the brewer. It starts pouring into my mug before brewing.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The Coffee on Demand 12 Cup Programmable Coffee Maker is high-quality. Ours lasted flawlessly for 16 years, every day. Just received our new Coffee on Demand 12 Cup Programmable Coffee Maker. The brewed coffee never gets scalded in the tank.
To keep the Coffee hot past the automatic 'off' feature. Manually turn off the unit for a second and turn it right back on.
I've purchased many other Cuisinart products and can honestly say, "They are worth every penny."
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love it...wish reservoir wasn't plastic.

I've had this for years and it works great. I read some reviews that said it leaks but I've found that when this happens it's because grinds get caught in the out-valve of the reservior container. A simple rinse with water and inserting my finger into the valve fixes the problem every time!
My only wish...that the reservoir wasn't plastic. I'm trying to eliminate plastics wherever I can, especially if heated, but the other features of this product meet my family's needs perfectly, so I've been hesitant to swap it for another with a carafe.
Cuisinart...if you read this, perhaps consider changing the reservoir to stainless.

This coffee maker holds the coffee in a reservoir inside the coffeemaker with a heating element. It always stays hot. This is my second purchase of this same coffeemaker. The first one lasted 6 years. It's a little pricier than others, wish it would have lasted longer, but not much lasts long anymore anyway. Good to see that the power cord has been made longer. Otherwise an attractive, easy to use product.
I would recommend this to a friend!
