Cuisinart Brew Central DCC-1200 Coffee Maker Reviews

I have an older model of this excellent drip coffee maker from the good people at Cuisinart, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Whether you're brewing freshly ground organic Sumatran or something off of the grocery store shelf, the Brew Central will bring out the best in your coffee. Thanks to its gold-mesh filter, there is no need for those pesky paper filters that inevitably add the taste of wet newspaper to your morning eye-opener.

I can vouch for the durability of this machine, as I have been making coffee on it most every morning for the past five years, and it still works as well as...

I may not be a coffeeholic, but I do know a good cup of black coffee. This maker is the best for the money. Scrap your Mr. Coffees' add a few extra bucks to what your willing to spend and buy a Cuisinart. You won't regret it.

This coffee  maker is great! I am able to set it to go on whenever I like. I always have fresh coffee. The "cup meter" is easy to read. You can make as much coffee as you need or will drink. It filters the water great! I can pour 1/2 way through the brew and the coffee still tastes good.... you don't get that with many coffee makers. I LOVE IT!

This product makes fabulous coffee.  It includes a charcoal filter to keep the water purified.  There are a variety of settings available including a preset that will automatically begin brewing at the time you want.  A series of three beeps notify you when the coffee is ready and then again just before the coffee maker turns itself off - approximately one hour later.  I am often forgetful about turning off my coffee maker, so this is a great safety feature.  I also hate making coffee in the morning, so preparing it at night and setting the start time for the next morning is perfect for me. ...

I've gone through 2 Cuisinart coffee makers.  The coffeemaker itself is extremely attractive, modern, trendy, etc.  I loved how it looked in my kitchen.  But, they both stopped functioning.  After putting the water in, it wouldn't do anything.  (the pump?)  At first I was mad but did go out and buy a 2nd one because I really did like it.  That one had the same problem.  I got about 3 months use out of both of them.  I actually kept the box and noticed that it was a "refurbished" model.  Enough said.  I won't buy a 3rd one.  Coffee will taste the same regardless of the coffee maker. ...

We purchased our DCC-1200W about a year ago, and are very satisfied with it. It often goes on sale for about $80, and we were able to get an additional 10% off at Macy's. The fill cavity is not the best but I've learned to pour water into it with my left hand while resting the bottom of the carafe on the opposite corner, and tipping/pouring slowly. It brews a consistently good pot of coffee each time. The DCC-1200W also has a setting for brewing 4 cups or less. This comes in handy on work days when my wife and I each have a single mug of coffee before leaving home. It let's us know when it's...
