Bought this to replace an earlier version of the same model (had it for years). Love the automatic turn off, 5 cup or less and bold options. Would have given 5 stars - but Cuisinart still hasn't figured out how to make a carafe that doesn't drip when pouring.
Needed to replace my old regular coffee maker, found this one and splurged. So glad I did. Love my morning coffee and this one keeps it really hot! Only wish the carbon filters were less expensive..
This coffeemaker brews coffee very well. The features I like best are the cone filter shape and the adjustments for the warming plate. It's quiet and fast, I am looking forward to the cleaning feature, and some of the other features I have not yet tried (1-4 cup setting, programmable time to start, etc.).
