We've purchased several of these coffeemakers. Cuisinart coffeemakers are the only residential class with a 4 hour warming plate. All the others are only 2 hours. We wake up every morning to the smell of coffee which starts our days off right. Definitely a lot of bang for your buck.
Works good and fast. I usually do 11 cups so if someone is there i can make more without having to brew a whole pot. Quick but makes some crazy noises.
I love this coffee maker and especially like the 14 cup carafe. A lot of the time, 12 cups just isn’t enough. This brews some some tasty coffee and is super user friendly taboot.
I find the maker is hard to fill (to the last drop of the pot) the way the door opens. You really can’t tip the pot far enough to empty the pot of its tap water. Also the pot tends to drip when you pour a cup of coffee.
