Four stars for durability, five for everything else. My wife owns a coffee shop, so we have everything in our house: Keurig, Breville espresso machine, Nespresso, French press, etc. But sometimes you just need to be able to set a timer and have coffee when you wake up in the morning. We bought this model about seven years ago and used it daily until about a month ago when it simply died. Upon further inspection I noticed that it had begun leaking internally at some point and the bottom was all rusted out. Is seven years a good life for a coffee pot? I don't know, but after thorough research we bought the same model again because we couldn't find anything we like better. Hopefully this one will last longer!
This is my second Cuisineart coffee pot.i love Cuisineart products. I also have the toaster and can opener and several other Cuisineart products. My first coffee pot still works after 10 years but I broke the carafe and decided to buy a whole new one. Now I have the other one as backup
This coffee maker is very sleek and nice. The thermos feels very solid and good quality. We love the programmable feature and that it can self clean. I recently had to stop drinking coffee for a short time and I husband enjoyed the 1-4cups bold brew feature. The filter is reusable and I absolutely love the charcoal feature.
Purchased this coffee maker to replace our Bruan that finally stopped working after 6 great years. We own a Cuisinart food processor and electric skillet and love them. This coffee maker got good reviews and was recommended by Consumer Reports. So far so good. It’s been a month and we are happy with it. It even uses the same charcoal filter our Bruan did. Makes wonderful coffee and is easy to use. Love the water level on the outside. It also looks great.
