Larger 14 cup coffee maker is awesome. Quick brewing time, built in mesh filter, over ice option, many great features and it brews a delicious cup of coffee. I also love the matte metal and black aesthetic which classes up my kitchen.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This model has been my least favorite of all of the previous models I have had. The pot itself design is very poor and very hard to pour of fill without coffee or water leaking, the digital knob on front to me is not user friendly and a pain to get use to.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for sharing your feedback and for your continued loyalty to Cuisinart. We’re sorry to hear the pot design and digital controls have been frustrating, as ease of use is important to us. For pouring, ensuring the carafe is aligned properly and pouring slowly from the spout can help minimize leaks.

Cuisinart 3500SS worked for 3 months, but that all

I purchased a new Cuisinart DCC-3500 coffee maker from a department store. Worked great for about 3 months. Then it didn't... A complete waste of money - total Crap. They used to be some of the best on the market, but apparently Cuisinart doesn't produce the quality products they once did. ...sad

We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience, as Cuisinart is committed to producing high-quality, dependable products and this is not the standard we aim to deliver. If the unit has stopped brewing, we recommend confirming the reservoir is properly seated, ensuring the unit is fully plugged in, and running a cleaning/descaling cycle to address any potential mineral buildup that could affect performance. Your feedback is important to us, and we would appreciate the opportunity to review your situation and help with a resolution.

Improved hot plate temperature

I have had this same coffee maker for years and this one is definitely improved that when the coffee is finished brewing it’s actually very hot which is a big plus will continue to stick with Cuisinart for all my kitchen appliances.
