The Cuisinart coffee maker is a wonderful coffeemaker with an inexpensive price tag. For less than $60, this is one of the best values available. The coffee maker comes equipped with a programmable timer and clock. This feature does not come standard with many coffee makers, so it is a bonus for the consumer. It takes less than 5 minutes to program the coffeemaker. Within minutes, a perfectly brewed pot of coffee is ready to serve.
The fill hole is much larger than most coffee machines, which makes it very user friendly. Some coffee makers have very small holes to pour water into which makes it easy to make a mess all over the countertop. Make sure to leave the lid off the pot when pouring the coffee for optimal results.
The coffeemaker is easy to clean and maintain. The coffee pot itself is glass and the rest of the machine is sturdy plastic. It does not take away from the performance of the machine. Stainless steel is not necessary to get a better cup of coffee. The results are the same, but the consumer gets to save at least $30 by choosing this type of coffeemaker. The Cuisinart looks great on a countertop.
The water reservoir is small and very close to the coffee grounds. Users need to use a measuring cup to measure water because there is not a cup measurement on the coffee pot itself or the inside reservoir. There are strips on the outside of the water reservoir area to measure the water. This minor issue does not take away from the quality of coffee the machine produces.
The machine has a 24-hour programmable feature with a self-cleaning system built right in the coffeemaker. Another amazing feature is the brew pause for those who cannot wait to get a cup of coffee before the brewing is complete. There is no messy clean up in the event this happens because of the built in feature. Many coffeemakers do not heat the water to the appropriate temperature for coffee, but this coffee machine does. This product maintains a temperature of 197 degrees in the filter basket, which guarantees a great cup of tasty coffee every time.
This coffee maker is ideal for home usage. There are not very may fancy bells and whistles because the basic functions such as programming and self-cleaning are all that are needed for a basic home coffee maker. This coffeemaker is well worth the price.
