I like not having a coffee pot to clean up & possibly break; I had an earlier model similar to this unit, and it finally died after 12 years of faithful service ! I've been very happy with Cuisinart products.
I believe that this is the third one that we have purchased over the past 15 years, at least. What we love about it: the dispenser light, no carafe, level gauge to see how much is left, stays relatively hot for 4 hours, the dispenser bar (bought the first one for that reason alone so Mom, in her nineties could easily get her coffee). The only drawback is cleaning the unit that holds the coffee. Grounds get caught in there and some black flakes but hubby does a good job of thoroughly cleaning it.
Awesome and convenient brew station. Has the coffee all ready when we get up in the morning. I love the reusable coffee basket or coffee filter option that comes with the brew station.
works well, happy with it so far. the coffee maker I had before this also had a reservoir and not a carafe and so that was an important factor for me in buying this one.
Had one previously that lasted 10 years being used 2-3 times a day. Really appreciate the timer so that we had fresh coffee upon awakening each morning. The coffee reservoir kept the coffee warm without developing bitterness after a couple hours.
Love this coffeemaker!! We have used Cuisinart coffeemakers for years with the stainless steel carafe, but when our last one died (after several years), we saw this one online, and decided to give it a try. Wonderful!! Very easy to use and maintain. Makes coffee quickly, and keeps it hot for us! So convenient, so handy!!
