Our very old Cuisinart Coffee Maker began to leak and when we replaced it, we looked no further than the updated DCC-3200. We love it and if we live long enough we will do the same again.
I love this pot. It is my 4th or 5th. I like that the new one is elevated a little more on plastic”feet” because I have had to replace coffee pot when the bottom metal plate corrodes due to water damage. I hope this one lasts longer.
This is my second Cuisinart coffee maker, I had the one prior to this for seven or eight years, but the water chamber started leaking, causing the under plate to rust and leaking rust all over my countertop. So I bought a replacement, my only complaint is that I wish there was an easier way to pour the water into the water chamber rather than clear to the back by the lid it would be more convenient to have the opening into the water chamber up towards the front.
My old coffee maker quit so I HAD to buy a new one the same day. When I looked at my needs and the options available, I choose Cuisinart because of the options and the price. I am very satisfied with my choice. I do wish that the pot cap swung open, but that is not a big deal.
I have had this unit for a month now and has been a great coffee maker. The coffee is hot not mediocre as with other coffee makers and stays hot in the pot after brewing with the timed hot plate.
