This Is The Coffee Maker You've Always Wanted,

This review is from: Cuisinart DCC-1200W Brew Central 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, White and Stainless Steel (Kitchen)
Finally, something that is what it says it is! "A great coffee maker."
My Cuisinart DCC-1200W coffee brewer arrived late this morning and I quickly unpacked it. Following the manufacturer's instructions, I flushed it once, and installed the included water filter (only one came with the unit), and prepared to make the first pot of coffee. The White and Chrome model was my choice to blend in with my other appliances. This Cuisinart product is made from sturdy material and is visually appealing (not disappointing or offending my spouse ((doubly important)).) In just ten minutes the coffee brewer beeped (gently) five times to let me know the coffee was ready. (Yes, I could tell by the silence that it was done but as I said its beep is gentle.) You will love the carafe. Did you know that someone really can design a carafe that doesn't dribble or spill as you pour? Cuisinart did. And yes, you can pour a quick cup before the brew cycle completes. The handle on the carafe is the perfect size and shape to fit any hand. It's just that now you can pour that quick cup without pouring all over the counter. You Mr. Coffee users know what I mean! How did it taste? It makes a fantastic cup of coffee. Whether you use an expensive gourmet grind or right off of the donkeys back, you will be pleased with this coffee maker as I am. The controls are simple and easy to understand as well as reachable and easy to operate for big or dainty hands. The Cuisinart DCC-1200 has the entire expected preset features you are accustom too, and a few more such as the adjustable warmer plate temperature control. You won't be scorching. If you only have time for a quick 1-4 cups, there is a setting made for it exclusively and the brewer will double the heat so the coffee will be hot enough for your liking when it's done. Yes there are many more great feature, so look at the product description for those bonuses. To sum up: The Cuisinart DCC1200 is a well made and finely designed coffee maker that you will be glad to own and use over and over again. I can't emphasise that point enough in type. Enjoy.

Excellent Coffee, Minor Quirks,
By Kristen (UT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cuisinart DCC-1200W Brew Central 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, White and Stainless Steel (Kitchen)
We have this coffee maker at work, so I had the opportunity to use it for six months before buying one for home. It does make excellent coffee. I've usually bought my coffee at a shop because I could not stand the "Folgers" taste of most coffee made at home. With the water filter and a decent brand of coffee, making my own at home will pay for this machine in no time.
The styling is nice and sturdily built. The temp is hot. I **love** that the carafe doesn't drip all over the place when pouring coffee. The beeper is not that loud (and that's coming from a person that always has her computer muted because she cannot stand the constant dinging noises). As another reviewer said, if you can shop online or program your Tivo, you can program this machine. So the dials are a bit small--program it once and it's all downhill from there. A few quirks: -The stainless steel is very difficult to keep clean. Looks nice out of the box, but I'd give anything to have a solid white unit. -Yes, the opening for the water reservoir is a bit small, and would be more convenient if located in the front instead of the back. A few days of practice solves this issue. I've always measured my water in the carafe, and since the lid doesn't leak, filling the reservoir is no big deal. -It's a bit tricky learning how to get the carafe lid off--and the instruction manual does not discuss it. Once you figure it out (pull up at the handle), it's easy. -Placement in your home can also be tricky since the cord is fairly short and the lid hits the underside of the cupboards when opened. Despite the quirks, I love this machine and would recommend it to others. The fingerprint-loving stainless steel is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars.

Excellent,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cuisinart DCC-1200W Brew Central 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, White and Stainless Steel (Kitchen)
Disregard the "very disappointing" review -- it's talking about the combo grinder/brewer and not this product. I've had the brew central for a couple of weeks now and it makes the best pot of coffee I have ever tasted. Very hot, and the little shower head over the grinds does seem to make for a stronger brew.It's bulky, certainly, but is an excellent machine. The white/steel finish is much brighter than the trendy, mod, black-on-steel favored in last year's kitchens.
