We have been using this coffeemaker for about 5 months, it works well. I like the feature that lets me get the grounds/water ready the night before. In the morning the first thing to do is push the button to start, do chores, come in and have my first cup.
The best coffee maker we have ever owned! Having a water filter is great, no dripping on hot plate,cleaning process really easy, all of the programming options is nice. Overall a really nice coffee maker! Love it.
This is the second Cuisinart coffeemaker that I have owned. There was nothing wrong with my first one, I just wanted a newer version where I could see the water level. Great feature! My older Cuisinart is still with us and will be used as a backup, if ever needed!
