We have been using this coffee maker daily for over a month since we purchased it. Overall very well built, maybe not so well designed in some things. The glass pot itself is solid - the handle and the lid are well done, no concerns of falling apart. When removing the pot from the hotplate to pour there have been zero drops of coffee on to the plate. The pot slides in and out effortlessly (serious issue on our last maker by a different manufacturer).
Coffee is hot even on medium setting. And surprisingly we are using a lot less coffee grounds to make the same strength coffee as previous maker (we do use the bold setting, unless a dark roast). Another difference between the previous maker, which was admittedly low-end, if you fill 10 cups in the reservoir you get 10 cups of coffee in the pot - we would lose up to 2 cups of coffee after brewing stopped in previous maker.
We use filtered water so no need for their water filters.
I'll end with the only problems of an otherwise great coffee maker. Filling the reservoir you can make a bit of a mess if you are not a little careful because of the large piece that holds the hinge of the filling area. This has not been an issue just be aware. The one things that is a problem is opening the lid even the next day results in as much as an ounce of water pouring down the back of the unit on to the counter. The only thing that I have been able to do to reduce this is wedge a paper towel at the hinge, and replace every so often. Just an example of poor consumer testing and design - not a deal breaker though, just a hassle.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I had a lower cost Mr Coffee that finally died, and replaced it with the Cuisinart. We like the stability and the solidity of the Cuisinart, and it seems to make tastier coffee.
The only thing I would change is the basket. I prefer a bowl shaped coffee filter, rather than the V shaped one here. But this is a very minor consideration.

I was tired of the Keurig and wanted to get a programmable coffee maker. This was the choice and I am satisfied with it. No more pods for me. Just a nice hot pot of coffee ready when I get downstairs in the morning.

I love this machine. I especially like how hot the coffee is. 14 cups also allows a cup and a full thermos!

Like everything about this coffee maker except the lid is hard to get off to give the coffee pot a good cleaning. It comes of but it feels like if you do it too often the plastic will break. Like the heat levels. Medium gives you nice hot coffee.

Over the years we have loved our Cuisinart coffee makers. However, the last one went out after 9 short months and when we replaced it with our new one, right out of the box it does now work as expected. When you pull the coffee pot out while it is brewing, the brewing does not stop and continues to pour coffee. I am tired of going without a coffee maker so have not shipped it back. They used to be top of the line and now I worry that is no longer the case.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
