This 14 cup coffee maker is ready to use and self explanatory. The instructions are eady to follow. The coffee machine looks great in my kitchen. The brew cycle does not take long. It holds the coffee warm at an even temperature once brewed. I highly recommend this coffee maker.
We have always had a 12 cup drip style coffee maker. This 14 cup coffee pot keeps peace in the house as there seems to be enough for everyone! Quick and easy, fast brewing times as well.
I would recommend this to a friend!

An excellent device. We bought this one to replace the 12 cup model of the same device that we received for our wedding - 11 years ago! Daily coffee drinkers - do the math - this thing is a workhorse.
This is my second 14 cup coffee maker. I love it but it seems that the glass carafe has a tendency to dribble when pouring. My 1st didn't have this problem so I'm wondering if they changed the carafe style
I like the 14 cup coffee maker very much. It is well built and easy to use. You do have to be careful when pouring water. When filling the maker you need to pay attention since the ports are behind the basket, and when pouring the carafe you need to pour slowly or it will spill around the spout. Very strudy construction and the coffee stays hot.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I received my new Cuisinart Coffee Maker in a timely manner, did the prep as instructed, filled it with water & plugged it in. When I came back into the kitchen, all the water had drained out of the tank, none went into the carafe. My long history with Cuisinart Coffee Maker's only seem to last less than a year. The burner usually starts getting tarnished and the Coffee brewing keeps getting longer and clogging up, even after very carefully measuring and doing my clean outs. I switched to a KitchenAid and hopefully my dollar goes further & can have an enjoyable cup of coffee now. Cuisinart it's time to step up!

I love my Cuisinart 14 cup programmable coffee maker. It is so easy to program and use and has so many choices on settings and delivers a perfect cup of coffee. I’ve always had trouble with other coffee makers not keeping the coffee hot enough after brewing and this plate has settings for that. Also the warming plate time is adjustable and that’s very nice. There are no drawbacks to this coffee maker- it’s perfect for me.
