This coffeemaker is easy to use, makes good coffee relatively quickly and looks good. The reason for four instead of five stars? It is ridiculously noisy! I decided against using the program feature because the popping noise it makes when brewing woke me up in my far from the kitchen bedroom!
I would recommend this to a friend!

This coffee pot was a replacement for my 12 cup cuisinart coffee maker I had for 10 years. My household drinks alot of coffee so I replaced it with this 14 cup model and I live it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great, reliable coffee maker. We love the temp contol as well as being able to program this machine. Easy to keep coffeepot clean and coffee tasting great bu using the clean feature weekly.

Disappointing coffee maker. It makes odd noises when brewing and often smells like it’s burning. The carafe leaks when you pour the coffee. Do not recommend.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is our third Cuisinart coffee maker. Tried others. This is the best. Fast, quiet and dependable. We brew Peets Decaf Major Dickason on ‘BOLD’ and you’d never know it was decaf. Delicious! We use it daily and our Cuisinart lasts for years.
