I had the previous model for many years and when it finally gave up the ghost (leaking for some reason when it made coffee), I wanted the same coffee machine. Of course it had been "updated" and we have had a problem getting the carafe seated correctly under the filter basket so that it doesn't miss the hole in the lid of the carafe and leak when coffee is brewing. Seems the hot plate was made larger but there is ring that the carafe needs to be positioned in. This is very far back on the hot plate and a bit difficult to get the carafe set into correctly. Our guests who are not familiar with this requirement have had their coffee spill out and all over the counter, down the cabinets and onto the floor, often wasting at least 1/2 pot of brewed coffee.

This is the 4th Cuisinart Burr Grind & Brew that we have purchased. The first one, almost 20 years ago, was Excellent, so about 5 years later we replace it with a new one. I was better than the first! The third one was better than the second! And this one is way better than the third! I do not see how they could make this any better, but my guess is that in 5 years it will be and we will buy another one!
I would recommend this to a friend!

The coffee pot makes great coffee. At two hours heating time the coffee in the carafe does not get a burned or extra strong flavor. One caution, you MUST get the pot in all the way and correctly or you will get coffee leaking all over.

My only issue is that if I set it to brew 4 cups, it will still pull as much water through as is available in the reservoir. It doesn’t only pull the amount of water you set it for.

This coffee grinder/maker is very loud, and it always leaves some grounds in the carafe. That said, the coffee is quite good. You might want to walk out of the kitchen until it gets stops grinding.
