“Finally - A Coffeemaker That Works!”

After purchasing two different models from a company whose name should reflect their mastery of the coffee-making industry, I couldn't stand the incessant leaking when trying to pour a cup. I took a chance on this Cuisinart and couldn't be more satisfied. It brews great coffee, never drips or leaks,...

“Coffee-holics stay away!”

<!-- @page { margin: 0.79in } P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } -->

<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I go through minimum of 3 pots a day. We have had 2 of these and they each lasted less than 6 months a piece. It brews a great cup of coffee, and doesn't burn it. However, durability sucks. The inability...

“Brews well, though it was noisier than I would expect”

Brews a clean cup of coffee due to the filter design and water filtration system.  Works very well.  Pouring water into the reservoir is easy (often overlooked with coffeemakers).

“The Cuisinart Coffeemaker is Fantastic!.”

A clean machine, the design keeps coffee fresh for 2 hours.

“no spill, great cofee -Cuisinart 12-Cup Programmable Coffee Make”

I bought this coffee maker 6 months ago and I'm really happy with this product so far.Some of the plus points being coffee does not drips out onto the counter when pouring and it's very easyly programmable. It makes great cofee and I like it look as well.I always liked the Cuisinart products and this is really worth buying.

“Good Hot Coffee!”

Finally, great tasting hot coffee. Before the old pot died, I thought we had bad water or I had forgotten how to make decent coffee. Now t he coffee tastes great. This maker is easy to use and the coffee is really hot to the last drop. The 1200model costs more and doesn't have a water window. It can't possibly be worth the difference. I would recommend this 1100model.

“looks nice on the counter & works great”

nice features, looks great, very inexpensive, i don't much like the filter catridge thingy, it might just be me, but i think it makes the coffee taste funny. i had the clock stop working the last time my power went out, i'm assuming due to a power surge. so i'll be unplugging my appliances or putting everything on a surge protector strip

“Makes Good Coffee”

I really like the coffe this machine makes. I replaced my mr. coffee maker because the cafe always leaked as you poured the coffee. After having several that did this I decided Mr. Coffee didnt care about quality anymore. So I spend days looking at reviews and decided on this one.

  I like best of all that the cafe doesn't leak around the lid when pouring, so I don't have a mess to clean up each time I get a cup of coffee. I like that you can program it to keep coffee hot from 1 hr up to 4 hours. Also like the perm. filter. and that it beeps when coffee is done or when it is turning off. Some...

“Super Machine”

The machine does what it is supposed to do; it brews great coffee, even using the gold filter. It's that simple. We've had Cuisinart products before and have always been satisfied. Back to the coffee pot...make sure you use enough coffee for the best pot. Finally it keeps the coffree hot for a good hour and a half. Use and enjoy.

“Very satisfied with coffee maker”

My family is quite happy with this coffee maker. It does everything we need for it to do, and it's our first permanent filter maker. The coffee comes out tasting very good (but I didn't notice a big difference from our old maker). I appreciate the permanent filter - no trash from a paper filter, though because we wash it out after each use, I wonder if we're really saving anything. Anyway, as far the maker goes, I'd recommend it without reservation.

“awesome cup of joe”

after hunting for weeks for a great coffee maker we found it, it was between this one and the Kenmore elite, after reading the bad reviews for the Kenmore we choose this model. It was well worth the asking price, and now it is on sale which makes it that much better!!!

“Great coffeemaker!”

I had a Braun coffeemaker that finally went after almost 15 years. I was disappointed to learn that my particular model had been discontinued and set out to find a good replacement. I went online to read the reviews for coffeemakers and ended up buying this coffeemaker based on the customer feedback. I am very happy with it. It's very easy to use, makes good coffee and eliminates unnecessary waste by having a resuseable gold filter. If you're looking for a good coffeemaker--this is the one!

“Solid coffee maker, but not perfect”

This coffee maker is a very good and solid little machine. It brews coffee hot and the second cup is not bad either, although still a bit over cooked when you get to that second cup. I had a GE that I bought which hours later the second cup was as good as the first, however, I had to return it and bought this one because after a few uses it began to leak like crazy a design flaw reported by all who purchased that GE. I have been happy with this model by Cuisinart, however, it would be nice if you could adjust the heating plate temp which others offer and this one does not. The normal price for... read full review »

“satisfied customer”

very user friendly the permanent gold filter is a plus well worth the money easy preparation. just run 1 brew cycle with water and filter.no need to mess with vinegar and water ratios. tells you when you need to clean. the main impressive thing to me is the ABSOLUTELY NO DRIP KARAFE!!!.
