We had this exact coffee maker for the last 7 years and it was undeniably the best we've owned, simple and reliable. So it was an easy decision when our old one started leaking to just get the same unit, so far it's just as great as the last, we hope to get another 7 years out of this one! Great coffee maker!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Makes great tasting coffee, but has quirks

We just bought this to replace another coffee maker. The good is, it's a great looking machine! We ran an initial pot of just water through, like the directions suggested. When we went to brew a pot the next morning, we noticed an odd, plastic taste to the pot we brewed. That did disappear on the second pot, but maybe run two cycles of water only. Filling the reservoir is a bit clumsy. Our last brewer we could remove the water reservoir, fill it and replace it without having to fill the pot, our the water (and clean up the spill). So not the most efficient design in that regard. The coffee tastes great now, but we didn't realize that the Bold brew option has to be pressed Each Time You Brew! The last brewer at least remembered that we wanted bold each pot. Lastly, the display is BRIGHT! It lights up half the kitchen at night. I only wish there were a way to dim the display. It's a good machine, it makes great coffee, but it has its quirks.

This 14-cup coffee maker was a replacement for my 12-cup coffee maker. Very pleased with my purchase and did not need new filters. The design and larger capacity is exactly what I was looking for and is husband-friendly - didn't need to educate him on what button to push!
This is an outstanding coffee brewing machine. Large, 14 cup carafe capacity. Programmable for brewing start time, and how long it stays warm (up to 4 hours).
