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.

The Cuisinart Brew Central makes a good cup of coffee without the traditional glass coffee pot.  This eliminates the worry of breaking the glass pot each time you wash it!  The functionality and longevity of a Cuisinart makes it worth the money.  We were tired of having to purchase a new coffee maker every 12-18 months.  We decided to invest a little more money and we have not been sorry.  I would recommend that anyone looking to purchase a Cuisinart to price them around, as you could pay up to $30-$40 more for the coffee maker.  We purchased ours at Sam's Club and it cost $30 less than the...

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!

The Brew Central allows you to place your choice of beans into the grinder, set the automatic timing function and it grinds, moving the beans into the filter area while starting the water-heating function. The result is perfectly ground beans at the moment of their use, met by just-right heated water to extract the perfect brew.

Almost best of all, it occurs without your having to watch anything, or do anything. It's the perfect way to wake up!!! No work. No problem. All flavor!

When we first brought it home, it seemed as if it were over-packed using too much packing material, boxes and plastic....
