As a previous Bunn owner, I am very satisfied with the Cuisnart brew. The Bunn brewed too fast for my whole bean grind and the Cuisnart is perfect. It still brews in a speedy pace and it's programmable which is a big plus as the Bunn coffeemakers are not and I own 2 of them. Needless to say, I'm all for Cuisnart!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love the 3 year warranty on the Cuisinart programmable coffee maker. Our last exact model lasted 4 years. Happy Cuisinart kept this model as we do not like a built in grinder. Highly recommended
I am very disappointed in the temperature of the coffee after the brewing cycle has completed. The coffee is NOT very HOT at all. And the unit is set on high. I've put my cup directly under the drip while it's brewing, it's luke warm. The heating plate doesn't seem to make it any hotter.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We’re sorry to hear your coffee is not reaching the temperature you expected and understand how disappointing that can be. For improved heat, we recommend preheating your mug with hot water and ensuring the carafe and warming plate are fully engaged and clean, as residue can affect heat transfer. Please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference ticket #8901025215 so we can assist further. Thank you for your feedback—it helps us enhance performance and improve future models.
I’ve used Cuisinart products for many years. I needed to replace the “old” coffee maker after around 15 years. So, of course the newer model is much more tech forward than the old model! Love it!

The coffee pot or the lid cause the coffee to drip on counter when pouring. Then the pot drips off the handle when in the brewer. Definitely a problem and will be contacting Cruisinart.

We’re sorry to hear about the dripping issue you’re experiencing and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. This can sometimes occur if the lid or carafe is not securely aligned, so ensuring the lid is properly seated and pouring slowly may help reduce dripping. If you haven't already, please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 so we can assist further. Thank you for your feedback—it helps us improve future models and overall performance.
Overall I am happy with the coffee maker my problem is with the coffee pot spout. When I pour it has a tendency to pour outside of the spout, it spills onto the counter. This never happened with my past Cuisinart machines.
There are not many solid 14 cup coffee makers out there, but this is one of them. The ability to use the removable filter eliminates the need for paper filters. Would recommend this product.
