Sleek design, easy controls and the option of a burst of BOLD to a brewing lead to smart start to my day. The 14-cup carafe is an upgrade from my 12-cup model. That's an extra bonus.
Love the coffee maker, but the pot leaks when I pour the coffee.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for your feedback—we’re glad to hear you love the coffee maker but are sorry the carafe is leaking when pouring. This can sometimes happen if the lid isn’t fully secured or aligned, so we recommend ensuring the lid is tightened properly and that the spout area is clean and free of any buildup. If the leaking continues, our team would be happy to review the carafe and help with additional troubleshooting. Please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 and reference Ticket #8900552285 for assistance.

The Cuisinart is of a convenient and modern design with all the necessary settings easy to use. The carafe is especially easy to use and cleaning is simple with only a rinse needed if a complete washing does not have time permitting. The coffee maker makes great coffee and is priced competitively.
Very good coffee maker. It has a lot of useful features such as adjusting the temperature after brewing, controlling the temperature of the brew and the strength of the coffee by using the “bold” setting and provision for making just 2 to 4 cups of coffee. This is the second one that I have purchased. The first one died after about 5 years.
14cups every morning. I programmed mine to meet my expectations. I am not a techie but had no problem doing this correctly the first time. Coffee is great and brews fairly quick for such a large pot.
I've been buying Cuisinart coffee makers for the last 20 years. In all that time I've only had to buy 4 coffee makers because they all lasted 5 years before they started to slow down a little, but they still worked when I decided to buy new again. I got tired of buying other brands that only lasted from 10 to 12 months before they failed and always at the most inopportune times. I've saved a lot of money buying quality Cuisinart coffee makers.
