Received this as a replacement for 12 cup machine that only lasted 2 1/2 months. This one seem to be working OK so far is why I only rated it with three stars. Only had it for a couple of months.
I would recommend this to a friend!

A few years ago, we switched from a regular coffee maker to cold brew coffee. With regular brew, coffee was too bitter. Unfortunately, cold brew, coffee lacks the richness of coffee that is brewed with boiling water. The next thing I wanted to try, was brewing coffee using beans that I ground myself. The problem was that the coffee grinders were difficult to clean, and not worth the trouble. I came across the Cuisinart coffee maker, and it seemed like the perfect answer. This coffee maker can brew either ground coffee or whole beans. It’s easy to clean and take care of. Now that I am making coffee with beans that I grind myself, the flavor is much more rich and intense. With this coffee maker, all you have to do is fill the hopper with whole beans, put water in the reservoir, and hit the button. I now feel like I am getting the full, rich flavor of coffee. I love my new Cuisinart coffee maker.

We bought this for the grind and brew feature, and automatic programming. The problem is that the coffee is light with the strongest setting, which creates a problem. So we end up having to grind extra and brew rather than use the programming feature.
Coffee gets cold relatively quickly, but generally acceptable.
Easy to clean. Could have a few more buttons to make it more intuitive rather than figuring it out. Overall, for the price it should be a bit more refined.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The steamed water flowing into the grounds container is so forceful that the grounds end up in the brewed coffee. It doe snot matter what level of intensity you choose nor the amount of water you place in the water reservoir. We have had this for several weeks and the results are always the same. We loved our previous 12 cup thermal coffee maker but it was replaced with this 10 cup version.

This replacement was for the Burr Grind & Brew Coffee Maker which stopped working a little over a month ago. Since the old unit was still under warranty, we received a replacement. It is working properly and as advertised, and we hope it will serve us for the next few years.
