Poor carafe

It works well, makes good coffee. I don't know if the settings make a difference, I usually just make small pots (4 cups) and bold, for stronger coffee. But the carafe is a defective design - dribbles both when filling the coffeemaker and pouring coffee, cannot be emptied well (water or coffee always left inside) and does not have a hinged lid (the snap on lid is hard to remove) Do you have a better carafe?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My prior Cuisinart coffee maker died after 10+ years. This was a similar model and it too is good. Larger capacity than the old one. The glass carafe is different but my old maker had an aluminum carafe and …it fits this model !!! BONUS!!👍
We recently had our Cuisinart Coffeemaker die after 12+ years of dedicated service in which we brewed copious amounts of coffee almost every day and gave it indifferent care at best. We're not coffee snobs, and I would not recommend this to someone who is looking for a bunch of fancy bells and whistles. But it sure served us well for brewing fresh ground Peet's for over a decade.
It finally died, and the obvious choice was to re-up with the same model. We'll see if this one also lasts 12 or more years. Only complaint is that it cost twice as much as it did back when Obama was president, thanks tariffs!
Makes good coffee. Programmable function is easy to set up. The 1-4 cup option is a plus along with selectable bold brew option. The hot plate warmer temp can also be adjusted for a really hot carafe temp or not quite so hot. The finish and build quality however seem to under deliver for the price point of this coffee maker. However the carafe needs a redesign as it does not pour quickly without a dribble or two and the last half ounce cannot be poured out without literally turning the carafe upside down.
I would recommend this to a friend!
