This does everything one would expect and is easy to use, except that when you brew, the button you push illuminates “Off”. I switched from the KitchenAide siphon. The coffee is not as good as with a siphon pot, but KitchenAid doesn’t make the top part that breaks anymore and no one, I could find, makes a siphon pot with more than 50 oz of fluid.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Makes good coffee and, once programmed, is easy to use. Controls, however, are not intuitive - use the manual for set-up. The extra two cups are a godsend when the kids come home to visit. Nice touch to use a clear side gauge for water fill. Earlier models had a stairstep gauge inside the water fill compartment and it was hard to see and use.

A little awkward to pour water into the resevoir. The lid to the resevoir doesnt allow the carafe to pour completely withouth changing positions. A couple of times the bean basket didnt sit correctly in the bin and caused problems and overflow of basket. Once we got used to these quirks, it makes great coffee.

I absolutely LOVE my newest Cuisinart coffeemaker! This is my 3rd Cusinart coffeemaker. This one excels the others for a couple of reasons. #1. The taste of the coffee, once made, the coffee just tastes so much better than with the other two units AND #2. When pouring the coffee it does not spill around the spout of the carafe. I would have to stand over the sink to pour from the other units, due to spillage even when pouring slowly. I LOVE that I don't have to do this with this unit. The top "looks" the same, but obviously something is different.

Overall, and excellent coffeemaker, convenient, easy-to-use, very lightweight and easy to position.
One very minor inconvenience is pouring water into the reservoir using the carafe. Since it is on the back corner, the carafe and the top lid prevent easily pouring ALL the water into the reservoir without some gyrations.
I would recommend this to a friend!
