I truly loved this coffee pot. Everything about it. Taste of coffee especially. Until the unattached top came off while pouring. Burnt my hands and made a total mess. This is a hazard. Happened more than once. The top of the pot should be attached!
The Cuisinart 14 Cup Programmable Coffeemaker is well-designed with an illuminated function display and a water-level indicator on the side panel indicating the number of cups.
All in all a good coffeemaker. waiting to see if heating plate rusts out as my last coffeemaker did so quickly. So far so good! What I don't like is the way the lid has to come off the carafe. Almost dropped the carafe a few times trying to snap off the lid. Also the pour place for water from the carafe is awkward to use - hard to see and barely enough of an opening
This is the second one I have owned. First was ruined in a flood but worked perfectly. Which is why I again purchased but this time bought the 14 cup. Now with company we never run out. Love the brew and how easy it cleans up. Five stars and worth it
This is a good coffeemaker, but the ONLY thing I dislike is the awkward angle from which water must be poured into the reservoir! But the machine makes good coffee and fits a small part of my counter perfectly!
