Definitely not up to Cuisinart reputation for other appliances. We got two of these machines about 2 years ago. The first one lastest about a year and the second is now taking forever to make 6-8 cups of coffee.
My son likes that the machine is programmable and pours without dripping. I used the $60 to get him a printer, so no problem.The only real problem with this machine is that it is tough to see the water level when pouring it in the machine.
It is tough to see the little guage inside the machine if you are using some other source, like bottled water. As long as you use the coffee pot to fill it, you know how much goes in.
I purchased this for my newly-off-to-college son. His only complaint is that it is white, but the white one was almost $60 cheaper than the black one.
(We have a Cuisinart at home and it has the same problem).Overall, a very nice machine for the money. The college required "auto-shut-off" which this has.
I also got a permenant filter for him.
My only disappointment is that the clock doesn't light up, but that is a small trade off for the non leaking carafe.I would recommend this for anyone not wanting to spend a fortune on a coffee maker. This is a wonderful coffee maker and I am very pleased with it. Finally there is a carafe that doesn't leak coffee all over the counter.The water resvoir is a bit small, but if you pour the water slowly there is no problemIt makes great coffee, is attractive and easy to use.
It has a streamlined look, doesn't take up much room on my counter, and best of all makes a great pot of coffee. First, I was really happy with the speedy response. In fact,I liked it so much that my husband told me to order another while they are still available.to keep in reserve for a "just in case" scenario. Another plus, is that it is very easy to clean. The coffee-maker was in my kitchen within a very short time span. As for the Cuisinart coffee-maker, it is simply ideal.
It's water delivery system is a shower type instead of a drip so it distributes the water over all of the grounds. It's fast, only takes about 5 min for a 12 cup pot of coffee and has an audible beep that tells you when the coffee is done. As coffee makers go this one has a few extras that make it stand out. This makes sure you use all the grounds for a robust cup of coffee every time. I was very pleased with my choice in coffee makers and I would recommend the Cuisinart DCC1000 Programmable Filter Brew 12-Cup Coffeemaker to anyone looking for a great coffeemaker. First off, is the charcoal filter water purifier that is built in. Takes all the impurities out of the water and leaves you with a very tasty cup of coffee.
