Great grind-and-brew coffee maker

Customer Rating:
We had enjoyed a previous version of this product (minus the thermal carafe) for more than six years until it finally gave up the ghost. This works the same, but I really like the thermal carafe which keeps the coffee HOT for quite some time; the heater goes off as soon as the coffee is made so that it doesn't turn into little chewy pieces of coffee candy. Yes, it is a pain to clean (six pieces every time, including the carafe and its lid) BUT, as another reviewer opined, if you don't like it, go to Starbucks.

2nd Cuisinart 14-Cup

Customer Rating:
This is my second purchase of this very same coffee maker. My first Cuisinart DCC-2600 14-cub coffee maker lasted three years. That's the longest I've ever had a coffee maker last me. In fact, I'm lucky if I get a full year out of them. My wife and I are avid coffee drinkers and really put our coffee makers to the test. This coffee maker is great. We have absolutely no complaints or negative things to say about it. We are 100% satisfied with this product. It's attractive, easy to clean and offers lots of whistles and bells too!

FYI, this is a 7-cup coffee maker, not a 14-cup coffee maker

Customer Rating:
I bought this to replace a BUNN coffee maker. I think it brews much better tasting coffee. One thing you should know, what Cuisinart defines as a cup is actually half a standard measured cup of coffee. So if you brew a full pot, you'll be able to pour 7 standard cups full of coffee and no more. The 14 number really isn't accurate. This is still an excellent coffee maker.

Cuisinart DCC-2600 Review

Customer Rating:
I have always purchased the Braun 12 cup programmable coffeemaker in the past. It was the only coffeemaker that I felt brewed great hot coffee and kept it hot. I found other coffeemakers had a problem brewing coffee that was hot enough in the past. Braun has since had the brilliant idea of no longer manufacturing a 12 cup coffee maker (DUH!-what a great marketing department!).
I searched online and found mostly great reviews of the Cuisinart DCC-2600 Brew Central 14 cup coffeemaker. I decided to give it a try and I am no longer lamenting not being able to find my Braun. This Cuisinart has exceeded my expectations. The coffee is brewed hot and it will be kept at various temperatures of your choice for up to 4 hours. The taste of the coffee is great and there is also a regular and strong brew setting. I highly recommend this coffeemaker. If I had to find one thing that could be improved, it would be how the coffee pot lid snaps on. You have to get it just in the right place but it does snap on. Thank You Cuisinart and Amazon.
