Makes great coffee, aesthetically pleasing. Design flaw that if the pot is not placed perfectly under basket it will not drain. It then overflows and causes a mess. I now wait until the brewing starts and adjust pot if need be. Currently shopping for a different coffee maker.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My original Coffee maker broke after 13 months. Cuisinart replaced it very quickly after I sent them pictures of my old coffeemaker. I am so glad they stood by their warranty and will buy other Cuisinart items in the future.
Works well just remember to remove the plastic tape with a time printed that is covering the clock display. I couldn’t figure out how to set the clock because this tape was covering the display!
This coffee maker works just as advertised. I utilize the program feature to have a pot ready when the wife and I get up each morning. Simple to use and it looks nice on the coffee bar. We have a Keurig for those times someone wants a single cup of coffee but I appreciate how much less a cup costs when using the Cuisinart. About one tenth the price of a cup from the Keurig.
The coffee maker works very well, buttons are intuitive- don’t need a book for everything! Coffee flavor is very good, so water temperature is adequate. I used to own a small café so flavor quality is important to me! It stays warm for a nice amount of time throughout the morning without tasting burnt! I can make good coffee for 4 cups or 14, as I often host a group here- and it’s compact for this quantity! Only negative is that it stays very wet inside & I need to wipe it down before putting fresh grinds in.
Replaced my 12c Cuisinart coffeemaker after being very well loved for over a decade. This new one is just as good! Maybe EVEN BETTER!? I love setting the timer so the coffee is already made once we wake up! Very easy to use & operates quietly.
