My favorite appliance is this Cuisinart machine!

I have had this machine for over a year now, and have no complaints whatsoever! One day, my trusty machine just stopped working, sending me into a panic – I needed to get a new machine fast, but I was not willing to settle for anything less than the best (at a reasonable cost, of course). I wanted to try a machine that had no carafe, so I researched the web for different models. Reviews of this Cuisinart were favorable, thus I traveled to my local Kohl’s store to see it in person. I was impressed with the features it offered, and I really liked the look of it. I decided it was the one for me, but it was rather pricey at Kohl’s. After researching other sources, I was surprised to find this machine at a great price at my local Sam’s Club.

Coffee plays a very important role in my life, and finding just the right machine is of utmost importance. I love the stainless steel and black; it looks very classy sitting on my counter top and everyone who enters my kitchen comments on it. I use the timer feature regularly, and really appreciate walking into my kitchen first thing in the morning with a fresh pot waiting. The dispensing lever is a nice feature, too, enabling me to pour a cup of coffee one-handed (all moms will agree that this is especially necessary for that first cup of morning coffee while holding an unhappy baby!). The holding tank and filter basket remove easily and are simple to clean. The holding tank keeps the coffee hot for 2-4 hours (depending on the automatic shut-off setting you choose), and the last cup tastes as fresh as the first - no more “burnt” coffee taste! This is most pleasing, since I like to make a big pot of coffee on the weekends and take my time drinking it. I grind my beans at home, and have found that this machine makes even better coffee if you grind them a little coarser. Even my husband, who balked at my coffee with my old
machine, loves the coffee from this one. So, Thank You, Cuisinart on Demand for making me a better coffee barista!
