A good coffee maker in spite of negative reviews,
March 14, 2008

After purchasing a succession of cheap coffee makers which broke down after a year or two and made mediocre coffee, I decided to upgrade to Cuisinart.
I do not agree with the negative comments about this product.
The clock is easy to program and it is obviously indicated that you may want to either use paper or gold filter twice in the instructions. It is also easy to pour water in the reservoir if you use the carafe. You may be able to turn the coffee maker to the left, and the reservoir opening is easily available. Its opening is by no means tiny, as a reviewer portrayed it.
The center funnel which holds the filter is situated and there’s little risk of dropping coffee grounds into the water reservoir.
The carafe is well intended, with a comfy handle. It pours neatly, without dripping coffee all over the counter, something which generally happened with my old Mr. Coffee.
You do have to realize the cover snaps down over the carafe. This isn’t clarified in the information.
Most importantly, it makes an excellent coffee.
There is a three year guaranty which is more than I have seen for others.
So far, I dont have complaint, and I’m happy I bought this product for a great price.

Best coffee maker I ever had!,

REAL NAME
 , ,
My name is Ryan, and I am a coffee addict. My habit varies from one to three pots a day just to remain conscious. So you may be able to understand the level of misery I have had to endure this past week as my four year old Gevalia machine met an untimely death throughout a recent lightning storm. I then began the hunt for a new machine. Just, was my 1st stop since they have everything. I read all kinds of reviews, and settled on this one. I must this is by far the best machine I have ever owned.
In reading the reviews, I found some gripes that I do not agree with, so here is my answer to those:
1. The number one gripe I see is filling difficulty. The fill hole is much bigger than my old machine. Many people said its too small and makes a big mess. My 1st time, it did drip a bit but if you leave the cover off the pot while pouring, works like a charm. Let me put it this way. I wake up in the morning with the jitters, like a fiend looking for many crack. If I can pour it without making a mess anybody can. And that is a fact.
2. Numero Dos: Programming difficulty. I am no rocket scientist by any means, but I had this thing programmed inside about five minutes. I had no problem understanding the directions. I believe most gripes in this area are operator error.
3. Basket issues: It does not stand up on it is own, true, but I do not understand how anybody could miss the basket. Leave it in the machine for pete sake! I hope they do not miss their mouth with that hot coffee! Again, If I can do it without making a mess, anybody can. As for picking paper or mesh filter, paper of course filters better, but mesh makes it stronger and leaves some sediment in the pot. Each way has it is benefits based on how you like yours.
4. Flip top so big you must pull it out from under the counter: True, but how lazy can you be. Honestly? It is not that hard of a chore. You’d be hard pressed to find a machine that is not like this.
I, like others, had many pre conceived notions from negative reviews, but I found most if not ALL of those to be many pretty weak arguments. I guess many people have more problems than others when trying to understand directions and such. This machine is top notch for the price, hands down!

Everything you could want,

Hello fellow coffee drinkers. Like most of you I looked long and hard for a good basic coffee maker. In the last five years I have gone through four new merchandise and have been quite dissapointed in this whole experience. I mean how hard can it be to make a good coffee maker. I had the basic braun coffee maker for ten years and loved it. But, two new braun coffee makers afterward I realized that quality had gone down the drain with the coffee grinds. Then I bought a krups. I returned it to the store inside two weeks as it stopped working. They gave me a substitute which lasted just past the warranty. Figures Then I tried a GE combo grinder brewer. That was the worst mistake I may have ever made. The 1st sign that it was garbage should have been when the GE emblem fell off. It leaked. It spilled. I spent more time cleaning than brewing, and thankfully it did not last as long as its warranty and I had no intentions of to get another one free or not.
I have had this cuisinart now for three weeks. It does everything it says it’ll do. It never leaks, spills or makes a mess. As per the other reviews I feel it may have a bigger fill area but it really is no more hard to fill than any other brewer I owned. Don’t let that stand in the way of purchasing this I also think it’s easy to program and will keep your settings in memory if it’s unpluged for a short time period.
This coffee maker works perfect and I hope it lasts as long as the warranty and beyond.
Happy brewing.
