Bad out of the box

This would have been my second Cuisinart coffee maker. 1st was 12-cup 3400. Great until water wouldn't heat consistently to 195• + at grounds. It lasted almost 10 years. Brand new 14-cup Perfect Temp cannot achieve 180• in/at grounds out of the box. Tried 5x even using 100• tap water.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We’re sorry to hear your new 14-cup Perfect Temp coffee maker isn’t reaching the expected brewing temperature. To help optimize performance, ensure the water reservoir is fully seated, the brew basket is properly positioned, and avoid overfilling, as these factors can affect heating.

Great coffee pot with fantastic controls. Keeps the coffee at a great temperature.
2 drawbacks-only keeps the coffee hot for 4 hours. Even in the full upright open position, the lid makes it difficult to pour all of the water in the carafe into the reservoir.
I would recommend this to a friend!
