Customer Reviews for Cuisinart - PerfecTemp 14-Cup Coffee Maker - Black/Stainless Steel

The coffee maker was excellent with all the options of heat and strength to make the coffee. I am very happy with my choice. The machine worked flawless with the programming time and the coffee indicator on the side made making a pot with the correct cups very easy along with the measuring cup. It will be interesting to use the 1-4 cups when I do not need to make that much.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very good Coffee Maker. It has perfect features that are used daily. Not too many bells and whistles. Coffee tastes great.

We purchased based on the Consumer Reports high ratings. Overall we have not been happy and may go back to our previous coffee maker. First, whenever we pour from the carafe, there is always spillage. It is an exciting day if we can keep the counter free of a puddle of water or coffee. Next, the LED display, while informative, is very bright. There is no way to adjust its brightness other than unplugging the coffee maker, which we do each night. Flavor-wise, it is a bit smoother but seems to lack a sharp coffee flavor that I am used to. We have found more coffee is needed to get flavor, even when using the Bold or 1-4 Cup settings. Size-wise, it is typical and can fit on our counter and under a cabinet. Based on the Consumer Reports review we had higher expectations in terms of its engineering and flavor, but we will just have to live with it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback on the Conair coffee maker. We’re glad the size works for your counter, but we understand concerns about carafe spillage, bright LED display, and flavor intensity. For easier pouring, ensure the carafe lid is fully seated and pour slowly at a slight angle; adjusting grind size or using slightly more coffee can help achieve a bolder flavor. We’re happy to hear you were able to continue using the unit, and for additional tips or assistance, please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference ticket #8900563398

Nothing has gotten me more excited to get out of bed lately than the taste of the freshly brewed liquid heaven that this machine produces. With it's multifunctionality, I can easily customize my experience. Love this mean bean slaying machine!

I bought this as a replacement for my Cuisinart that needed replacement. It worked, but the clock and time to go off weren't working, had it for over 12 years. New one is great, no problem with spilling water as some reviews mentioned. Coffee even tastes better in this new improved one!

Researched a lot before buying. Have used a lot of drip coffee makers and they can be good or bad. Like ease of use, ease of cleaning, taste, being able to pour a cup mid brew, carafe doesn’t drip when pouring. Coffee stays heated ample time.

This is our second Programmable coffee maker. If it didn't make a perfect pot of coffee we would never have bought the same maker again!
