I Loved it -- untill it died September 7, 2010
Hank (United States)
After going thru so many coffee makers over the years I saw this one 5 1/2 years ago and had to buy it. I figured with the Cuisinart name this beauty would be worth the money and more than just a "pretty face". It was more money than I have ever spent on a coffee maker but I loved the look of it so I went for it. Now after 5 1/2 years it stopped working! For the price and the "built like a tank" construction I am dissapointed it didn't last longer. Am I asking too much? I just would have expected 10 years from a $99.00 list price coffee maker that is used 5 days a week to brew 1 pot of coffee. I think it's the on/off switch, but it's more than I want to bother fixing myself and to have it fixed now-a-days probably gets close to buying a new one.
I would have given it 5 stars if it was still working because after all these years I still like it better than any coffee maker I have ever owned. It makes great coffee and it still looks like brand new (I have the all black-matte finish) Soooo the reason I'm here at Amazon is to buy another one just like the old one! Amazon's price and the $10.00 rebate will make it cheaper than the 1st one. I guess you can see I still recommend it even though it stopped working. It's not perfect...but "It's close enough to perfect for me".... as the song goes.
Sturdy. Easy to Use. No spills. September 7, 2010
J. Minck (New York, NY)
I've had this coffee maker for a couple weeks and am happy with it.
PROS:
* No spills. I have no problem filling the tank or pouring coffee. You have to be able to flip the lid all the way up and lean in close to the machine. The target for filling the tank is small.
* No burns. The steam when pouring the coffee isn't directed toward the handle, as it was on a prior (horrible) coffee maker.
* Very nice looking machine. The chrome shows finger prints, so the stainless may have been a better choice.
* The pause-and-pour feature works without drips.
* Easy to use.
CONS:
* No see through indicator showing the volume of water in the tank. You either have to measure in the carafe or look down into the tank for fill-markings. I knew this buying the coffee marker, but it's more of an annoyance than I expected.
* No brew-strength settings.
* The clock is small and hard-to-read except with good lighting (or younger eyes?).
 Great Coffee Maker, but..... September 7, 2010
A. Calcagno
I love this coffee maker! I did extensive research, both on Amazon and an independent consumer site before making this purchase. I've owned a Cuisinart in the past, so that helped make my decision. Many of the issues that were cited in previous reviews were addressed in the manual. I have to say that the manual is very comprehensive. The machine makes great strong (as I like it!) hot coffee. It is very easy to clean, program and work, and fits compactly under a cabinet (thank you to the reviewer who supplied all the specs!).
Now, here is my "but". An independent review, while extolling the virtues of this machine, also stated that Cuisinart coffee makers usually last a maximum of 2 years. My previous one of this type lasted 4 years, but in the interim, I owned a Cuisinart percolator which lasted about 6 months. So, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this one lasts.... and lasts. Good luck to us all.
Best Coffee Maker, Cuisinart September 7, 2010
Noemi Nesbitt
Best Coffee Maker, coffee brews quickley and tastes better than coffee house brews. Auto shut off is great for busy families. You can also set timer and coffee is ready before you get out of bed. Highly recommend this unit. This is our second one, first unit lasted 8 years before it quit working. Can't beat the price either! Love It...!
Really good cup of coffee! September 6, 2010
Kat
I love this coffee maker! Makes a pot of coffee really fast. Coffee isn't bitter so I can cut down on the sweetener I use. I wasn't sure if I would like the black chrome but it looks really cool! I have hard water and I like the idea of the filter. Time will tell if that helps keep the calcium deposits down. Hopefully the cleaning feature will help, also.
