When I started looking at coffee makers it amazed me at how many terrible makers there are after so many years of making coffee. My old very simple one turned on if you whacked it just right so.... off we went. This one was suggested by some group of coffee snobs. I guess they were right. It has a few options. You can use hot water or extra hot.You can have mild medium or bold or settings. We always use x hot as at our high elevation water can't get that hot anyway. And who drinks mild coffee?? So bold it is. It gives a very smooth cup of bold coffee as good as if you took extra time pouring it over. It has several holes for the water to come out so the coffee grounds get covered nicely. The carafe doesn't heat up like old style makers. It is insulated well. and you could set it on the table so you don't have to get up for more. And keeps it hot but doesn't burn it like old ones that heat it. It is pretty easy to clean up. Only con would be the tiny scoop they give you and possibly space issue as it sits sideways to the world if you had a tiny kitchen.

I prefer cleaning the carafe with vinegar and water because that’s just how much anything else affects the taste.
I think this was a good investment. Coffee tastes pretty good whether it is freshly ground with the metal filter or with store bought ground coffee with paper filter. The insulated carafe keeps things hot for a good while. I’m not sure how dishwasher safe the carafe is because it audibly whistled for a while after being washed.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Brews decent coffee but even with the second carafe replacement it still pours all over the counter
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The brewer makes good coffee but the pour spout on the thermal carafe is poorly designed and a constant source of frustration as no matter how carefully we pour, coffee drips down the side of the pot. Don’t buy this machine unless you enjoy wiping up spilled coffee every time you pour a cup.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It made great coffee but the warming plate etched off over time. I took care of this machine so I was very disappointed.

The heating pad “blistered” on the first one I purchased and Cuisinart generously replaced it. Unfortunately it’s happening again. Though the pad still heats and keeps the coffee warm it’s very unsightly.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this coffee brewer about 6 months ago and love the features and its ability to control the water temperature and the brewing strength of the coffee. My only complaint is that the LCD display is sometimes dimmed to the extent that I can barely read it. Also, I wish this version of the coffee maker came in a 12 cup model. I would definitely recommend this product to someone else!

Very well designed with thoughtful usability. The ability to select how mild to bold your coffee tastes are as well as how hot you like it. I have always pre wet my coffee grounds and let them sit for 30 seconds. This coffee maker does it for you. The thermos pot has a clever valve that automatically closes and opens when you pour helping to keep the coffee at desired temperature.
I would recommend this to a friend!
