I have used this brand of coffee maker for a number of years and like the way they perform. This one is a little faster in making coffee and has an added feature for bold coffee which I like. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a durable, long lasting coffee pot.

This coffee maker has it all; from small brew cycles to large, normal to bold, from warmer adjustments to auto shut off timer options. On top of all these great features it brews a great tasting cup of coffee and you can pour it without the pot dripping!! sound to good to be true? It's not! Best of all it is simple to use, it even tells you when the coffee is done brewing and tells you when the warmer truns off. Incredible. I will take two!
PS. if you are worried about finger prints on the chrome? Don't, because it doesnt leave any!!

There are so many coffee makers out there. I have been looking for many months for a quality brewer, and actually saw this in a store while I had been researching the Cuisinart 12 cup. I had bought one before several years ago. They have made some very good improvements in the easability of use, and overall quality of the machine is great. Only had it for about 3 weeks, but it seems like the way the brew cup handles the grounds, you can actually save on the amount of grounds needed to get a strong cup, even though there are settings for strength. Extraction of the oils is very exceptional!! Hope it lasts many years.

I love this coffee maker - very easy setup, very easy to use, brews fairly quickly, lots of options for how long to keep the burner hot, how strong to make your coffee, how hot to make your coffee and the best news of all ... no SPILLS when pouring the first cup! I would definitely recommend as a gift for yourself or someone else.

We previously owned two cuisinart coffee makers which we used until there was no life left in them. Due to some economic troubles, we then purchased a Mr. Coffee unit that was seriously not up to the standards we were used to from your coffee makers. We needed a new one approximately a month ago, and decided to return to cuisinart for the looks, price, and especially the quality of this coffee maker. We would not hesitate to purchase this item again, and would definitely recommend this to our friends.

Absolutely love this coffee maker. If you love hot coffee that is not weak, this is the coffee maker for you. The only thing I would change would be to make the time display backlit and larger.

After having a Mr. Coffee that could not pour a cup without spilling all over I decided to spend a lot and get a "quality coffee pot". Well it does pour without spilling but the black plastic top is really difficult to remove for filling and cleaning. Doesn't anyone in the company actually try their merchandise before selling it. For $100 I was expecting a little more.

Would definitely buy this one again. It doesn't have TOO many bells 'n whistles, just the ones I actually use. It does not consume too much real estate on the counter top,which is important to me. Only complaint is that it is not made in the USA.

OK but some issues
PostedSeptember 30, 2011

The top of the machine is slanted toward the front, but in the photos appeared flat. This makes the entire coffee machine look a bit off balance, and that is not a great design. It does make coffee fairly quickly and thus far the taste and quality are fine. For an expensive machine, it would have been better if the photo showed the slant, so that aspect could have been taken into consideration. And, a retractable cord should be standard, but is not! Also, be prepared to operate the plate at the higher temperature to keep coffee hot (there is an option).
