My New Favorite!
This is my third Cuisinart coffee maker of a similar type and it is hands down the my favorite! Each of the prior ones lasted about five years. They may have lasted longer had I been more faithful to proper cleaning but they eventually suffered from hard water lime buildup. They have all made a fine cup of coffee. But pot alone, no matter the brand or cost, will turn pre-ground grocery store coffee into a great cup! I grind my own coffee right before use, measured by weight for each pot, from locally roasted beans.So what makes it my favorite? It’s sleek and absolutely beautiful on my kitchen counter! The surface is easy to clean, with no buttons to collect dirt. It makes 14 cups, two cups more than my other Cuisinarts. And I love the digital display. There’s really nothing complicated about it if you pay attention to the instructions. Touch sensitivity is good and it holds previous settings from pot to pot unless you want to make a change. I love the side window that shows water level! With my older Cuisinarts I would…honest to gosh…have to stand on my tippietoes with a flashlight to look down into the water well and make sure I didn’t overfill.The purchase of pot alone includes a reusable filter, no need to buy that separately, but be aware that those filters will allow sediment to drip through to your pot and spoil the cup. It also includes one water filter, which is quite easy to change, but after filtering my water in a Brita pitcher I find no need to refilter the water. The pot works just as normal without it.It arrived extremely well packaged. In fact it was almost like opening a Russian Matryoshka doll with a cardboard box inside a larger cardboard box and inside those was the store display box with the pot inside protected by more cardboard…no Styrofoam…bonus! I doubt anything less than a truck running over it could have broken the glass carafe.Like my previous Cuisinarts, settings allow you to turn off the burner as soon as the coffee has dripped through. Or you can choose H, M or L temperature if you like but leaving coffee on a hot burner makes for burnt tasting coffee very quickly. Much tastier to rewarm in the microwave if it has cooled. There’s a wide range of settings, so it’s easy to personalize in a way that meets your needs. How long it will last is hard to say but my previous Cuisinarts served me well for years and hopefully this one will too.

Perfect Temp for Perfect cup of coffee
After several weeks of research on which coffee maker would replace my 10 year old Brewstation, I settled on a Cuisinart Perfect Temp model. While deciding between the DCC-3200 and the T20, I chose the T20 for its style as well as function. Upon unboxing of the T20, I was surprised by how light weight the unit was with so much light weight plastic. That was a little off-putting as we sometimes correlate quality with heavy/sturdy construction. I know current manufacturing using lighter materials may make that an old-fashioned comparison. I hope to prove the new way is as good or better over the life of this T20, should it also last 5-10 years. At 14 cups this can make a BIG carafe of coffee. I read several reviews that said the carafe was âclunkyâ because of the way the lid is not hinged. I find it VERY useful and easy to use. Removing the lid is as simple as popping it off. Nothing complicated as detaching the typical hinge based lid. Pop it off, complete your washing of lid and carafe, then snap it back into place. The glass carafe is not heavy (empty), and the handle was sufficiently ergonomic to pour easily. Many reviews (of many coffee makers) will comment on if a carafe empties completely. This one empties easily enough with a typical pouring angle. It will leave a bit still in the bottom (about 1/8th of an ounce), and you will have to up-end the pot to fully dislodge. I donât find that to be uncommon and we do that anyway when washing and putting the pot away for the day anyway.The touch-screen works well. A single touch turns on the full screen, showing all the display âbuttonsâ. There you can adjust many settings such as:- how long you want the warming burner to stay on (auto shut off)- how hot you want that burner to keep the coffee (Low/Med/High),- Clock Setting (and delayed/timer brew functions)- Sound control on/off (for the touch screen and for the coffee is ready alert and the auto-shut off alert)- You can also set the size of pot to make (1-4 cups or 5- 14). FYI That part is more to adjust the heat and timing, as you will still need to only add the amount of water you intend to brew. Donât fill the reservoir to the max (14 cup) and expect only 4 cups to be brewed.Also, I suggest you use a separate container with a good pour spout to fill the water. The reservoir opening is not large and you will want to have some accuracy to where you pour. We use an old âBrita Filterâ container and it works wonderfully. I have marked it for various amounts (4 cup, 10 cup, 14 cup, etc) so we can easily fill it for the desired amount of coffee. The reservoir on the coffee maker fills from the right side of the machine and there is a clear plastic window indicator with markings to aid you in filling to the desired number of cups. The grounds basket utilizes the #4 cone filters and the machine also comes with a golden mesh basket if you want to eliminate using paper filters. We actually use both the paper filter AND the mesh basket together and we enjoy the smoothness of the coffee with ZERO sediment making its way into the carafe.-Letâs get to the good stuff: Making Coffee. One of the primary selling points of this coffee maker is the focus on brewing the coffee at the optimum suggested temperatures (195-205 F). Since it is in the name (âPerfect-Tempâ), I am not surprised to find this unit mostly stays within those temps during the brew cycle, resulting in an excellent tasting cup of coffee every time.

Somewhat annoyed but coffee is good!
In June I replaced my 15+ year old Cuisinart coffeemaker with this new one. It is attractive, is easier to fill than my previous one, makes coffee quickly and also makes and keeps it hotter than my old one. Whatâs not to love? I would give it five stars except for one concern. The âcleanâ light has never appeared. It was starting to show lime deposits on the inside, sputter and give off a lot of steam when brewing, so I ran the vinegar solution through it even though the light hadnât gone on. Later I called customer service to politely ask about the light. The woman who answered somewhat rudely told me the light isnât supposed to come on unless I never remember to clean it on my own. This is not the case with any coffeemaker I have ever had before, so donât know if it is now true or the clean light just isnât functioning.

Finally a useful coffee maker
I went through several coffee makers before I found this one. As the only coffee drinker in the house, I didnât want to spend a whole lot, but I didnât want to get something that would give me a quality cup in the morning. Iâm now all jazzed up because Iâm drinking several cups each morning and this coffee maker is the reason. Itâs easy to use and has several nice features. And it wonât break the bank.

Best Coffee Machine
What a beautiful machine, never once did I think I would be impressed by a coffee machines looks. Brews a great pot of coffee and looking forward to hundreds more.

The title of the review says it all – the brew is superb, even when making one cup. I highly recommend weighing your coffee on a gram scale to get consistent results. I like my coffee strong so I use 18 grams per cup and use the “Bold” setting.I do have one complaint, and it’s one I have had with almost every coffee maker I have owned. It’s difficult to pour the water into the reservoir as the angle of the lid blocks the necessary tilt of the carafe to empty it completely. My solution is to lift the carafe higher as I pour, but that is a delicate operation that can lead to water everywhere if you are less than steady of hand.

Love the clean, modern look. Very easy to operate. I like my cup of java strong and hot. It accomplishes both perfectly. What a wonderful way to start my day!
