Good coffee maker. Missing some features that the cheaper Mr. Coffee has, like measurement of water in the coffee maker as one example. Cuisinart puts the measurement on the side of the maker and it is not easy to read. Mr. Coffee puts their measurement on the front of the maker.
As an other example, on the top of the coffee maker, the only way you can access the pot to fill with water, is to completely remove the top of the pot. With the Mr. Coffee, the top of the pot is hinged and swings up and down to access the pot to fill with water. The top can also be completely removed as well.
Water spills all over the counter. Coffee basket moves out of position and won't drain into pot (also all over counter). Hot plates doesn't stay on long enough. Etc, etc, etc.
I wanted a coffee maker that made hot coffee - not lukewarm coffee. This product makes full-flavored coffee that is at the perfect temperature for me. Very easy to use and clean. The water filter makes the coffee taste better too.
Keeps coffee hotter than any other maker we've had. Very good brew flavor. Like adjustable temp and number of cups settings. Graduation markings on pot and side window can be hard to see.
By far, the best coffee pot I've ever owned! Great coffee with every brew. I love the large capacity. The pot doesn't spill when filling cups or the reservoir. Even when I make 14 cups of coffee, the grounds do not go over the filter. The programming stays after a power outage or unplugging for cleaning.
