Cuisinart DCC450BK

I bought this coffee maker over 2 months ago - and the smell and taste of plastic - if anything - gets worse with time - it is awful - I can no longer use this machine -

I like the way it makes coffee. I dont like the lid to the coffee pot or the lid to open the pot to fill the reservoir. They both are not simple to open.

Purchased this after a bad experience with a 'bad and docker' unit. This one is BY FAR a much better unit. Water levels are easy to read even if you're just waking up. My only gripe, and it is minor, would be that I had rather have the power button on the right side as you face the front rather than...

  Stainless carafe, easy to see water levels, easy cleanups, timed off, does its job.

Makes great coffee and keeps it hot, but try to pour a cup without spilling. Bad design on the pots spout , even removing the lid, it still spills down the side of the pot.

No other 4 cup coffee maker beats the Cuisinart DCC-450BK. I've tried all the other brand 4 cup makers and thrown all of them out. This coffer maker makes fresh hot delicious coffee every time. Easy to keep clean, small foot print on counter.. and a stainless steel carafe ..

I have used one of these Coffee Makers for about 10 years. I live alone so it is perfect size for me. I like my coffee a little stronger than usual and this pot allows me to fix any strength easily. This pot makes the perfect cup of coffee each time.

Great little coffee pot! Brews quickly and the stainless carafe is great and non breakable!

Got this 6 or 7 months ago and been working perfect ever sincefor the ones that says it spills when they pour probaly dont have the lid on right. put the front on first then the back snaps right in if you turn the pot up side down and the lid stays on then you no it is right.

I did not have the issue others have had with the drip stop mechanism not functioning. When I pull the pot, the drip stops. For some reason, when I pour, the steam from the stainless steel pot has a tendency to come up around my pouring hand. Perhaps it is the shape of the pot. I pour quickly.
