I purchased Cuisinart 12 cup coffee machine as a replacement to my broken Cuisinart. In past having gone through coffee pots every six months I took the chance on then a more expensive machine to see if it would last longer. To my surprise it lasted 16 years with using it daily and making average of three pots of coffee. Best tasting coffee to! Self cleaning feature is great as well as auto on and off. I keep my heat setting on medium and very rarely use the 1-4 cup feature. Love this machine and have recommended to my friends. Con: New one has black plastic back when old one was stainless, cheaper look. Cheaper to make I guess.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Always the best and always will be! This is my third Brew Central™ 12 Cup Programmable Coffeemaker. Dr. Vaughn, continues to purchase this specific Coffeemaker, year after year. And, each time a replacement is ordered, Dr.Vaughn takes notice of the "upgrades and physical" improvements.

Love the classic look and functional simplicity of this model, and this is our third one. The persisting problem is that, despite following daily use instructions as well as cleaning instructions, we go through periods where the coffee doesn't come out, either at all or not the full pot expected given the water that was put in, and the coffee is dilute. So, we clean it out again, and use a vinegar cycle, etc., and that may fix it for a little while, but in a matter of months, we run into this problem again, and every so often after that.

I bought my first Cuisinart Coffeemaker more than eight years ago. I found it to be dependable and easy to use. When I needed a replacement, I bought another Cuisinart without hesitation. It also is very dependable and brews great tasting coffee every time. My only issue is that this model requires filling the carafe with water and then emptying it into the coffeemaker. My first Cuisinart had a lighted marker on the side of the machine that allowed me to pour the water directly into the coffeemaker. I like that feature much better and will be careful to look for it when I buy my next Cuisinart Coffee Maker.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I had two previous Cuisinart Brew Central 12-cup Coffeemakers that worked perfectly and lasted many years, so I figure the new one I recently purchased would work similarly. Not so! The new one had so many problems I don't know where to begin and don't want to wast time listing all of them. The machine was just terrible!
