This brewer works well and brews a pot fully quickly which is nice. I chose it for it's compact footprint and it matched our kitchen. However, it is very difficult to fill it with water without spilling all over the kitchen counter. The area you have to aim the water into is too small. And it is nearly impossible to see the level of the water without maneuvering the thing to a place where you can look straight down itno the reservoir and catch reflections off the surface to see when it reaches one of the dark grey markers lurking in the black chamber. And you have to do this while trying to guide the water into the chamber an not all over the counter. Why didn't they put a clear piece of plastic on the reservoir so you can see the water level from the outside.
One more annoyance is the digital display. While it is pretty straightforward to set the time and autobrew start times it is very hard to see the digital display. I have to kneel down and get my face right up to the display, it is so dim and small.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

For years had a basic coffee maker with no timer, if I made a whole pot part of the grinds were left dry due to poor water distribution in the filter. I’ve had no problems with this Cuisinart and really great coffee

This product is very well designed except when you lift the lid to remove the grounds and filter. This is the only option that could have had a better design. I also am hot happy that I have to purchase the replacement water filters from you directly instead of a local seller.

This is my second Brew Central coffee pot. The first one lasted more than six years and we make a pot about 10 times a week. We liked the first one so much we didn't even shop for something else, we just went out and bought another Brew Central.
