submitted byLA Todd - 5 years agoA: This coffee maker uses a #4 paper filter or a permanent filter.
submitted byLA Todd - 5 years agoA: I never use a paper filter. The mesh basket is enough and I have done this for the past 10 years. Way to go Cuisinart for making such an awesome coffee maker!

Q: Can you brew 1 or 2 cups directly into your mug?
submitted by grandma - 1 year ago
A: No.Brew Pause stops flow of coffee from the basket when the carafe is removed (30 seconds maximum) from the heater plate, so a cup can be poured in mid-brew from the carafe.

Jerry’s Critique
Your new design sadly eliminates the water level gauge on the side of the coffeemaker. It is difficult to accurately determine the water level in the carafe using the level marks scribed on the carafe. The water level markers inside the coffee maker are of little use.

Nice Pot
Just ordered a new one . My other pot was just like this and I really loved it. I just don't like that the heating plate went out after only a years use.

Great coffee and easy to use
This has been great for us but does anyone know if we can shut the buzzing off once the coffee is ready? It wakes up my kids!

Good coffee for when guests come.
Nice coffee maker! Get #4 conical filters for this. The metal basket is fine but paper filters work better.

Meets high expectations
It brews great coffee. The bells and whistles are all nice, but would not matter if the coffee was not brewed well. It took a minute to figure out the programming, but once understood, it is easy to program. We went from a thermal carafe to this hot plate and were worried about the coffee burning, but it is not a problem. The coffee stays hot. The warmer shuts off automatically, so turning it off is worry-free. One reviewer mentioned how little steam is emitted during brewing. Very true. 10 cups of water yields 10 cups of coffee. We are completely happy with purchase.

Best coffee maker
I’ve been buying coffee makers for over 45 years. They typically burned out on me in two years. Once bought cuisines I never bought anything else. This is my third coffee maker and I’m very satisfied with the performance. The last two both lasted about nine years each. I am a very satisfied and loyal customer now.

Great Coffeemaker
For years I have been using the same popular coffee maker. Every few years, even though I clean it several times a year eventually it gives up the ghost. So I order a new one that again lasts 2-3 years. So after the last one died, I decided to upgrade. Several friends recommended Cuisinart. After a few weeks I’m so pleased. Not only is it fast, it makes great tasting coffee.

The Little Brewer That Can!
This is the best and most durable coffee maker ever! It brews at the right speed and keeps the coffee hot. It brings out the best flavors and aromas in the beans. Easy to load, easy to clean.

This coffee maker is excellent
This is the third time I’ve purchased this model on average they last about 7 years of use making 6-8 cups per day. I keep the reusable parts like the glass carafe and filter holder as spare parts in case they are needed.

Machine look
I don’t like that you can’t see the water amount fro the outside of the machine. It has some weird steps inside. And the on/off button is outdated and stupid. Should be touch button

Makes great coffee. I love the cone filters. The main reason I wanted this coffee maker was for hot coffee. I am not disappointed, so happy to have this.

Nice coffee maker
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Brews.a good pot of coffee The machine is doesn't take up to much counter space. Easy to clean. The only downside side is if you're making a smaller pot it's hard to see where the water level is.

A disappointed loyal customer
I have two of these coffee makers. They make excellent coffee and have good features. I have also purchased two for gifts. Obviously I like the product. The one I just purchased replaced the same item that was leaking (repairing the leak requires special tools that I do not have). The new item makes coffee just like its predecessor, but the carafe lid does not snap in place as it should (and I have about 20 years expoerience putting the lid on a Cuisinart coffeemaker carafe.

Worthwhile
Makes great coffee. Easy to use. Wish it was easier to pour the water in, feel like I'm going to make a mess every time and I really don't want to get the beans wet since I program it for over night.

Does it's job and does it well
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my third version of this coffee maker over the last 20+ years. I have home offices for over 25 years and start my day around 0500-0530 most mornings so it brews at least 1 pot a day on average, every day. It's not fancy, has clean looks, and well made. I just can't justify going to anything else. It simply excels at making a pot of coffee.
