5.0 out of 5 stars
The best coffee maker ever!,
This review is from: Cuisinart Brew Central 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker DCC-1200C (Kitchen)
I own the older version of this coffee maker and in white. This is the best and most reliable coffee maker I have ever had. The charcoal filters make the water taste better and I really like the 1-4 cup setting when I just want to have a few cups at one time. There is also a carafe heat setting which is very nice - I have tried the Keurig coffee maker and it doesn't heat the water enough, I like hot coffee and it keeps it warm to hot (depending on how you set it) for over an hour and then turns off automatically. I would highly recommend this coffee maker. In fact, I am going to upgrade to the stainless since that's what is in my kitchen and I am in need of a new glass carafe. Awesome product!

This review is from: Cuisinart Brew Central 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker DCC-1200C (Kitchen)
This coffee maker makes coffee just fine. Really with the filter and everything I still notice no taste difference between it and my ten year old fifteen dollar Mr. Coffee. The problem with this is two details that I believe make for major annoyances. First one is the carafe that doesn't have a lid that pivots like any other glass coffee maker, nor does it have a screw top like many of the stainless. No, it has a snap on lid that is a pain in the butt to get back on after you are done filling up the water to pour into the next major issue. There is no water marker on the outside, so get ready to keep a flashlight around to catch the water reflection off the inside markers. You might say what is the big issue with that it helps the aesthetics of this beautiful machine. The problem is that my wife is five foot tall, and I leave an hour earlier for work then she is even getting up. So, most of the time unless I am running late I prepare the machine for her and she just has to flip it on. Now though she has no way to know if I carried through on all parts of the setup. Yes, the coffee grounds in the filter is a good place to start, and I told her this myself, but she then reminded me that sometimes I am not always very awake and do one part then run off and forget the other part.
My suggestion is don't buy this if you are or have a short person in your household that needs to see the amount of water in machine. Don't buy this if you don't want to wrestle with snapping a lid on every day for the next number of x years. I will be sending mine back to NewEgg and going back to a thoughtful maker.

very, very, good,
By Alfread E. Newman (Olympia, Wa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cuisinart Brew Central 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker DCC-1200C (Kitchen)
In looking for a new coffee maker, I found that the water brewing temp is key to a great pot of coffee. I also found that in reading reviews on various sites, that most persons posting, had negitive experiances to share. I was left with the idea that no one make a good coffee maker. Was this valid? Or is it just that the majority of people post because they need to vent? If a million coffee maker units are sold, how many bad reviews are require to say it is a junker?
Anyway, I picked the model that provided hot brewing water and a glass pot which you can pour without dripping coffee! I like the controls, simple knobs to set warmer plate temp and a toggle switch for on/off. Guess what you don't have to reset or program it if the power goes off. It makes great coffee. I shopped on line, and found it on sale at JC Penney in store. Nice if it craps out I can return it without a hassel. Hope this helps
