This coffee machine has been a life changer for our busy mornings. Being able to wake up with a fresh pot of coffee is only one of the great benefits of this machine. It’s easy to use, clean, and creates a delicious pot of coffee without the plastic taste some other machines leave.

A little disappointed

I want to like this coffee maker. It makes a good cup of coffee. However I am concerned that the hot plate will not last. When I slide the glass carafe onto the hot plate it does not glide smoothly. There is some kind of white powder on it and it is now is on the bottom of the glass pot. It seems to be getting worse. I wonder if the glass carafe is a bit too larger for the hot plate/unit causing a “rubbing” ??? I purchased this coffee maker in September 2025. Cuisinart is a brand I trust, but I have lost confidence in this coffee maker.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for sharing your experience. It sounds like the hot plate may have some mineral buildup, which can leave residue and affect how the carafe slides. We recommend gently cleaning the hot plate with a damp cloth and a mild solution of vinegar and water to remove any buildup. If issues persist or you need further assistance, please contact our Consumer Assistance team at 1-800-726-0190—we’re happy to help restore your confidence in your Cuisinart.

Bright Lights

Excellent coffee maker. Great controls on BOLD and temp of carafe. However the BRIGHT lights that stay on all night are like a 'night light' in my kitchen which is connected to the master bedroom here. Either add controls for brightness to dim them down, way down or use smaller lights. No one needs those bright lights on a coffee maker.

We have been through a few different coffee makers and brands in the last 5 years. By far the best and easiest coffee maker is this Cuisinart. It’s nice when you don’t have to worry if the coffee will be in the pot or over flowing. Peace of mind with great quality coffee is the best.

Have been using it daily and I love how the coffee is very hot and strong and I can control everything easily. I have been drinking coffee everyday for decades and this is probably the best coffeemaker I've ever owned. It's very noticeably better than the cheaper one I just replaced. Very happy.
Great coffee maker all around. The one thing I don't like is that the carafe lid snaps off and on, and I feel like that's going to wear to the point that it won't fit snugly any more. I haven't bought a new coffee maker in a very long time, so maybe that's how they're all made these days. I just feel like there could be a better design. Other than that, I'm pleased with the machine.

I am used to using the Cuisinart Extreme coffee maker. The 14 cup maker is very effective with easy to use controls. The only issue I have with the coffee maker is that you have to pour coffee slowly to avoid some spilling.
