 "The little coffee maker that keeps on ticking" 2009-08-28
By C. Dolezal (Dallas, IA United States)
I purchased this coffee maker for my husband back in about 2001. Prior to buying this Cuisinart, we had numerous discount store coffee makers which lasted only about 6 months. I was determined to find something for him that would last longer, and this has been the one. True, it is a bit messy, but it only takes up a small space on the counter, and the stainless steel pot looks as good as it did the day I bought it -- and my husband has used it at least once a day all these years. We've found it to be an overall great little coffee maker.

 "Quality product, but..." 2009-08-25
By Lets B. Honest
The quality of materials is excellent, sleek, and smart looking. BUT... I could not pour a cup without dribbling hot liquid. Resorted to pouring over a garbage can to prevent a mess on the counter. I had several co-workers try in order to make sure it wasn't just me. Finally gave up and bought a different brand. I'm convinced it's a design flaw. Can I have my money back?

 "Best coffee maker!" 2009-08-20
By D. Gardenhire (Oklahoma)
I love this little coffee maker. Mine doesn't dribble whatsoever- not sure why others do.. after the coffee is made, the warming plate turns on and keeps it extra hot up to 30 minutes..I keep my lid on as I am pouring, and I pour a little slow but not too slow, with no mess at all.. I have had every coffee maker from a Bunn,Melitta,Cuisinart 12 cup, and a Starbucks, etc.. I loved the Starbucks coffee maker and I would say this is very comparable.. the coffee comes out hot and very full-flavored.. I don't like coffee like jet fuel, but I hate it weak..I use alot less coffee than I used to... this machine just balances it out with super results every time.. I got mine new at a thrift store, but the price here is cheap as well.. in other reviews they say it seems cheaply made- I don't think that at all- it is sturdy enough for a small coffeemaker..I am extremely pleased with mine. No regrets.

 "Looks good, but poor design" 2009-08-08
By M. Evans (SF Bay Area)
I bought this coffee maker because of the compact size and it looked nice with the stainless steel carafe. I've been using it for about 10 months now:



Pluses:

Looks nice, brews hot coffee very quickly.



Minuses:

Since it brews coffee very fast, the coffee doesn't steep as long in the filter, I found you actually need MORE coffee grounds to make a comparably strong pot of coffee compared to my old Mr. Coffee maker, which let the coffee drain slower.



The carafe drips all over the place when you're pouring. I kept thinking the lid was on wrong but it does, in fact, dribble like a joke. I see many other people are complaining about the same poor design.



The stainless steel carafe makes it difficult to see how much coffee is left. And although it looks like it's one of those insulated carafes, it is not.



As a "safety" feature, the coffee maker turns itself off automatically after only 15 minutes. This would be fine (and expected) if it was an insulted carafe.

 "Cuisinart 4 cup stainless NEVER AGAIN." 2009-08-08
By L. Allen (Huntington Beach, CA)
I recently purchased this 4 cup stainless coffee maker and spend more time cleaning up the mess than I do drinking the coffee. I can honestly say that I have never experienced anything like it. First of all, when you pour the water in to the resevoir it is a task to get it all in there without spilling over the side due to the small size opening. Once the finished product is poured in to your coffee cup it spills all over the place no matter how careful you are. Additionally, the design of the handle for the filter basket gets in the way of the filter upon removal. This model clearly missed the testing and development phase.
