Our old Cuisinart coffee maker lasted forever. When we looked for a replacement, we bought essentially the same thing. We love that it didn't have a lot of bells and whistles to go wrong. Simple to operate, it makes perfect coffee every time, and doesn't take up a lot of space on our countertop. The filters , basket, and carafe are all replaceable, and they didn't discontinue parts. The white finish is perfect in our white kitchen, and is easy to keep clean. Absolutely buy this!

I've had many Cuisinart coffee makers over the past 30 years. They are the best maker out there. But this simple 12-cup model is my favorite of all. It is so easy to set up and use. Highly recommend this model and in my opinion, there is no other manufacturer you should consider.

Makes good coffee and happy to have a preset timer! Don't like that i have to use a different type of coffee filter... which is much more expensive. It comes with a reusable "gold" filter but i find little coffee grounds coming thru in the pot and my cup when i use it. The space to pour water in is little too and hard to pour all the water in with out it going thru the filter and onto the hot plate... makes a mess. Also, make sure you fully close the lid or it will bubble over in the filter when percolating. One last thing is i don't like the way the lid on the coffee pot works. I am used to having one that you put your thumb on it and it pops up... this one you have to take it completely off and put it back on when filling it with water. So there you are...

I replaced a Cuisinart pot with a new one from Cuisinart. It is very good, but two features I miss are the adjustable temp and the water fill window being on the left side...I found it easier to watch and fill when it was on the left. I love having a water filter to ensure good tasting coffee.
I would recommend this to a friend!
