Cuisinart Stainless Steel 14-Cup Programmable Drip Coffee Machine

I love this coffee maker! I had one previously for quite a few years when it finally broke down. I unfortunately purchased a different, less expensive machine. I knew as soon as that one quit working, and only not even a year, I'd purchase another cuisinart and that is exactly what i did and it is the best!

After owning 5 or 6 over the last dozen years, our last one finally gave up the ghost after 5+ years of making 2-3 pots of coffee a day (at home). We went with the 14 cup (not as fancy as past ones we've had). Unfortunately the power button didn't like us and decided to stop working. I called Cuisinart service, explained issue, gave them the necessary information and sent a picture of the cut power cord via reply to their email. A new one is already in their system to send us a new one. Finding a coffee maker that can make the amount of coffee I drink is not easy (2-3 pots a day). My last Cuisinart coffee maker lasted over 5 years and although this new one had a issue, Cuisinart service listened to me, took down the necessary information (I did register it with them), and a new one is already in their system to ship it to us. Is it an issue, yes of course, you purchase a new product you don't want it to stop working a week in, but it happens and you handle it. And cuisinart stands behind their products. So I know it is just a part of life and I look forward to the new one arriving as my 12 cup inexpensive travel one I have had for years for hotel stays is not an at home coffee maker for someone who enjoys drinking coffee, but it will work for the week until my new one arrives. After I use it for a month I'll update my post, but I can say that I really liked the 14 cup coffee maker verses the 12 cup. Yes it's not as fancy, but I want coffee and at my old age of 72, it's my drink of choice. The unit looked good. I liked that I could see the water fill marker on the side very clearly, it has a timer for up to 4 hours on, a timer to auto start, clock and a few other goodies, but that's why I stepped down from the fancy models, I just want it to make coffee and last like my last one which I'm sure it will. I do recommend Cuisinart even with this minor issue. But it shows how much they care and service has my new one already in the system in less than a day.
