Love this coffee maker
This is a very nice coffee maker. It has a modern look to it and looks appealing in my kitchen. There is a charcoal filter inside the water chamber to help purify the water prior to brewing. I like the alarm that alerts me when my coffee is finished brewing (it’s not too loud but beeps just enough for me to hear). The digital screen displays the time but it also shows how long since the brew time. The filter basket is easy to remove and clean. It is somewhat of a slower brew compared to some other coffee makers but I feel like this allows for more flavorful coffee.

Warming Ring Cracks
We tried 4 machines of this model. Within 2-3 weeks after each exchange a couple of minutes after pushing the start button was a very LOUD pop and the warmer ring cracked. The 4th time was enough .. took it back to Walmart and they give a gift card as a refund. What little they worked they mad good coffee.

    Excellent coffee Maker for Small spaces
    Very Impressed by this small coffee maker, Stands about 14 inches tall, and about 8 to 9 inches across, so fits perfectly into a tight spot. I don't have much unused counter space in my kitchen so this coffee maker was perfect size. The carafe is beautiful and can brew 12 cups, most appreciate the carbon filter that helps filter out the water for cleaner taste. Extremely easy to use. Total set up time for opening the box to assembly and using was minutes. I read the instructions and followed instructions and everything works exactly as the instruction book reads. Also, this coffee maker comes with a coffee filter that is very well-made and included was 4 paper coffee filters too. There is a measuring spoon also included, it's fool proof. Tried it out and work perfectly. Impressed. And love the extras like the display for the time or you can program what time you want the coffee to start brewing. It's wonderful. I have used this coffee machine 5 days a week for couple of months and zero complaints. Highly recommend

    very disappointing
    Bought a new coffee maker because my old one always leaked when pouring. Well this one does the same thing. You are suppose to be able to pour a cup mid brew but most of the time it keeps brewing and coffee goes everywhere. Within a few months a piece cracked on the hot plate area and came off. I wish i would have returned it when i could.

    Amazing!
    This is an amazing coffee maker! I ran it three times the first day! Lol. One time, just water, one weak pot and one regular. It is not very loud. And makes a pot in a good amount of time. Hot and fresh! I looove the timer feature, and the fact it tells you how long ago it was brewed! Waking up to the smell of coffee on a Monday makes the day just a little easier lol. I have no complaints about this coffee maker. I'm going to get another one to give my best friend for Christmas!

    Great coffee maker!
    This coffee maker is so sleek looking! Everything from the finish to the buttons to the coffee pot. It looks like it could be high end and super expensive. I also love that it has a programmable timer. It's super helpful for early mornings and it's already made when I wake up. It works great and looks great. Can't beat it!

    This product has many great features
    Cuisinart 12 Cup Black Stainless Coffee Maker is a very high quality machine with many features and benefits. The Quick Start Guide and Instruction Booklet are super easy to understand and follow. It is a black/stainless color that would compliment any style of decor. Cuisinart 12 Cup Black Stainless Coffee Maker comes with a Charcoal Water Filter that eliminates chlorine, calcium, bad tastes, odors from tap water, and it lasts for 60 days or 60 uses. This coffee maker is very easy to program, has a nonstick/scratch resistant heat plate, comes with a filter basket holder, and a filter basket made with permanent nylon. I really like that this coffee maker has a Clean LED Indicator Light that comes on when the calcium buildup interferes with the performance of this machine. This product has a fast brew time, a brew pause feature, and has a time since brew indicator for up to 2 hours. I brew and drink coffee almost everyday, I can tell a difference with the flavor, it is much better than the machines I have used in the past. I am very impressed with Cuisinart 12 Cup Black Stainless Coffee Maker. I would highly recommend this product.

    Conveniently Compact Coffeemaker
    This is a review for Cuisinart's 12 cup black stainless coffee maker. It is a perfectly powerful machine confined to a conveniently compact space. My former coffee maker took up almost twice the space on the countertop. The quick set up guide is very useful although I do recommend reading the manual for specifics like programming and types of filters. Each step of set up and use is easy to understand and follow. Great features include the charcoal filter placed in the water reservoir. It would be beneficial to have access to refill filters. The search begins for those. Another great feature is the glass coffee carafe design. Many coffee carafes leak water down the side and all over the countertop upon pouring into the reservoir. So far, it has been spill proof which is appreciated. One of my favorite features is the time brewed indicator. The coffee maker keeps track of how long the coffee has been brewed. I appreciate that it can be used with a permanent filter. I had never used a number 4 filter, and they are not as easy to find as the standard cone filter. I definitely recommend Cuisinart's 12 cup black stainless coffee maker for the compact size and convenient features.

    Great coffee ☕️
    This Cuisinart makes awesome coffee! So happy with this product, first off, it is very sleek- looks great against my granite countertop. And due to its size it does not take up a ton of room. Has easy features to follow including a clock so you can program when you want it to start brewing.

    Classy and sleek
    I am reviewing the cuisinart 12 cup black coffee maker. I love this classic look of this coffee maker. The coffee maker is programmable and the coffee stays warm for up to two hours. I can program this the evening before and have a fresh, warm pot of coffee waiting for me when I wake up the next morning. It's definitely cheaper than going to Starbucks every morning. Taste is delicious. I would recommend this product. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.

    Very nice coffee maker
    Our coffee maker broke some time ago and this has been an excellent replacement. Not that it matters but it coordinates with my black and stainless steel kitchen. It its easy to use, makes great coffee AND has a charcoal filter to help filter your water for great tasting coffee (that's a nice feature). This model has buttons right on the front for press to brew, set the time, program and even clean. The coffee filter holder and the carafe are easy to clean in the dishwasher or by hand. Overall, we couldn't be happier with it.

    Great programmable coffeemaker!
    This review is about the Cuisinart coffee maker. This particular coffee maker makes up to 12 cups of coffee at a time. This coffee maker is programmable for up to 24 hours before the coffee is brewed. This coffee maker keeps my coffee warm for quite a while after it's done which helps me a lot. The design of this coffee maker is truly modern and sleek. I really like this up to date design with the black stainless steel appearance. The Cuisinart programmable coffeemaker is sort of large but convenient. I don't really use the programmable feature but it does brew very tasty coffee when I'm ready to drink it. I use my coffee maker daily and this is a must have. There is a indicator that lets me know when the Cuisinart coffee maker needs to be cleaned. This item is easy to clean and even easier to use. I am excited about the performance of this coffee maker. I am able to brew tea in it as well. Coffee, to help me get my days started and tea, to help me relax in the evenings. This is an excellent quality product and this was the upgrade I needed. The Cuisinart coffee maker is one of a kind and one of the best in it's class.

    Simply the Best Coffee Maker
    Cuisinart 12 Cup Black Stainless Coffee Maker is the ultimate Coffee Maker. I would give it more than five stars if it was possible. Here are my list of reasons I love it. When you brew a pot of coffee it has a timer after your brewing has finished. This timer lets you know how long your coffee has been there since it brewed it will keep it perfect hot temperature for a couple hours. Of course you can turn it off at any time if you drink all your coffee. It has the program button so your coffee can be brewing while you're still sleeping and fresh and ready when you wake up feeling your house with the wonderful aroma. The clock on the front is great low lit so it's not super bright. It has a filtration system inside your water compartment to help your water be its cleanest. The coffee pot itself is wonderful it has the flip top lid it has markings on both sides that show your cup levels great handle. The warming pad on the bottom is superb. I have never had such perfectly temperature coffee with any of my other pod coffee pots. Has a clean switch so if your coffee pot ever indicates that it has a buildup and needs to be cleaned it's as simple as the push of a button. There is nothing that I don't like about this coffee pot. The dark stainless steel look with the black accent is very nice looking in my kitchen.. it's simply the best coffee pot for your money.

    Wowza! Hot tasty coffee!!
    I just got this Cuisinart coffee maker earlier today, so I'm just learning the in's and out's of it, but so far so great! Everything is pretty much straight-forward- did most of the set up without directions, but I've had many cuisinart products before so no issues. The black metal part I found to be smudge proof, as well. First of all, it's a sleek, larger coffee maker that comes with a water filter for water reservoir, has the #4 permanent cone filter, a few paper ones, and a coffee scooper. It has a larger shower head to cover all of the coffee grounds, which extracts the most flavor from your coffee. First time I made coffee, you could smell it throughout my kitchen- so aromatic!! But let me say, the flavor- it makes a full-bodied cup of coffee and is super hot for those particular ones who like it that way! No matter how I poured, fast or slow, it doesn't drip. I made 8 cups and it took it about 6 minutes which seemed perfect for a good cup of joe. When it was done, it beeped softly 5 times. Then, it started a countdown of how long my coffee had been sitting. Has automatic shut off after 2 hours (can be adjusted). I don't know about longevity for this coffee maker, but what I do know is that the Cuisinart company has always stood behind their products for the full 3 years. I've had to use warranty department twice in the past, and every time they replaced the faulty product with no charge. I highly recommend this Cuisinart coffee maker for delicious, extremely hot coffee. Just remember its backed by a 3 yr warranty which is unheard of these days.

    easy to use and very stylish
    i love the look of this coffee maker on our countertops! my husband is the coffee drinker in the family so we have been through a few over the years and he gives this one high marks. he loves the easy to read clock on it and that is is programmable for his schedule - and i love that it shuts itself off after 2 hours! and it keeps the coffee nice and hot until he gets ready for it and he can program it at night before bed. it has the built in charcoal water filter that ensures that the unit will be clean every time. finally he has the perfect coffee pot to fit his needs and is so happy!

    Disappointed
    This is the second one in 42 days both ended up with same problem. The ring above the burner that pot sits on broke while brewing pot. Seems like it can't handle the heat.

    Dangerous do not buy
    Folks, do not buy this coffeemaker. Within 90 days of buying, the heating plate cracked during a brew cycle. Luckily the carafe was okay but it could have shattered too. Other reviews have mentioned the same issue. I've owned many coffeemakers in my life and that has never happened before. And this was the most expensive coffeemaker I'd ever bought.
