I like the features of the coffee maker but it’s a bit difficult to access the water well. The carafe size along with the maker’s lid sitting open at a right angle makes pouring the water cumbersome.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My second Cuisanart coffee maker. The first was a stalwart carafe style that was still going strong after 6 years.
Pros:
HUGE capacity. Great feature, especially for lazy Sunday mornings, or work from home days.
HUGE capacity. Great feature, especially for lazy Sunday mornings, or work from home days.
Bold strength button. Literally use it for every pot. It really makes a difference.
Selectable warming feature. I’ve left it set on the middle setting, and the coffee remains hot and tasty hours after brewing.
Cons:
Hard to remove the lid. Why isn’t it like every other coffee pot in existence which easily opens and closes? It’s pain to take off and put back on. Really an issue when you try to clean the pot.
Hard to fill up. Probably because of the hard to remove lid, you always end up spilling water on your counter when trying to fill the reservoir. In over a month of owning, I’ve tried everything, but no matter what the angle, I still end up spilling water on the counter….
Pro tip, save the paper towel you use to wipe the counter up to wipe the warming plate if you try to utilize the shutoff feature when you try to pour a cup before the brewing has stopped.

All in all, a solid coffee maker that makes a great pot of coffee. Seems to be over engineered, but falls short when it comes to real world application. I looked past a lot of reviews that clearly stated the issues I found with this particular coffee maker. Figured it was user error of the review posters, but they were spot on. Probably the last Cuisanart product I’ll buy.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I love the coffeemaker overall. I do with the program mode held all the settings. I have to push for "bold" every time I set the program to brew in the morning. That is my one complaint. This is a great appliance!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have owned a few coffee makers in the last 10 years. Overall this is a very good coffeemaker. I love the 14 cup pot. It makes some puffing and clicking noises for a while after it brews, but that is the only negative.
I would recommend this to a friend!

No quite a year ago we had to replace our existing 14 Cup Cuisinart programmable coffee maker and many years of everyday wonderfully brewed coffee. Unfortunately the replacement, under warranty, was replaced with a unit that constantly "clicked/ticked" after the coffee was finished brewing. Annoying! It was graciously replaced with a second unit which within several days exhibited the same noises. Once again that unit was replaced by Cuisinart and now after 10 days appears to be performing well. While its appreciated that the Cuisinart was honorable I think that should this occur again we'll probably write them off as a source.

We wanted to have a ground coffee machine that had a timer function and was easy to set up and use. This fits our needs perfectly.
