Customer Response

leaks when you pour every time
Well, the coffee is fine, it doesn't stay hot long, but I like the small size and the stainless steel carafe. Downside, it leaks. Believe it or not I still use it, I just have to pour it over the trash can or a bowl (I have it in my office) because it leaks out coffee between the seam of the stainless steel and the black plastic carafe rim. This is a pretty major flaw, as coffee stains all over the place are not particularly professional looking.

My new Cuisinart 4-cup coffeemaker
I was pleasantly surprised to find that the new model of this coffeemaker doesn't dribble when pouring the water into the coffeemaker. That was the only real objection I had to the last Cuisinart 4-cup coffeemaker. I recommend it highly. In addition the cord is much shorter, which is also better since a long cord was totally unnecessary.

Perfect gift for someone you hate!
Horrible. Horrible. Horrible.

Avoid this coffee maker, UNLESS you want to give a "nice" gift to someone you hate. This coffee maker would be a perfect housewarming or wedding gift for a frenemy!

I tried to love this coffee maker, but the coffee tasted and smelled like burnt plastic no matter what I did. I tried to clean it-- I ran a dozen pots of water, three pots of vinegar, and still more water through it to get rid of the smell and taste. Nothing worked. I am returning this item to Amazon.

I called Cuisinart too and their customer service was better than their coffee maker. A sympathetic human answered right away and said all I could do was return the coffee maker to Amazon.

Coffee maker
Nice little coffee maker but had to send it back, I didn't like that it shut off after 30 minutes.

Faulty decanter
After using for less than two weeks I noticed that coffee was leaking. From between the metal part of the decanter and the black plastic on the top just under the pouring spout. I was very disappointed I thought I was getting a deal at the price and it turns out I got robbed at half the price. I have bought other Cuisnart coffee pots and they all were great this one sucks.
