here’s some user reviews at coffeegeek
We love ours - after going through several coffee makers with glass decanters breaking on us, we had finally had enough. This puppy is great and looks stylish without being too industrial.
Get the manual over here.
Amazon.com has this exact same item (refurb too) through its associated sellers.
Nine reviews are mostly positive, with an average of 4 stars. Also, the only sellers has a price of $69.99, so Woot has this coffee maker for significantly less.
I’m a French press man myself, but this looks like a worthy item.
only 1, disappointing review at amazon
$70 new and used over at amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d.html/ref=mp_s_a_1/192-4282213-0581846?qid=1259474634&a=B0010AQ4FE&sr=8-1. Rated 2 out of 5. They say its hard to read the water levels, so keep this in mind.
It certainly is a worthy item. We use it to compliment our Nespresso machine. It is quiet, and most importantly keeps the coffee really hot WITHOUT a hotplate (it basically seals it inside the carafe until you pour it).
I made coffee Thursday evening and came back from a few days away this evening - it was still warm!
ffs what it wrong with some amazon reviewers! it has an inside stepped and numbered water level. It really isn’t that hard! We fill ours directly from the tap using the tap hose thing, but you could of course measure in a jug and chuck it in.
Had one of these, worked good for about a year then died
One not so happy comment over at the also not so happily named Cuisinartsucks.com.
I would concur with the reviewers and comments on here. Certainly more balanced than the Amazon person
OMG, are they seriously asking $40 bones for this?
I just got a top model coffee maker with 2 lbs of coffee from gevalia for $15 shipped…
Wow…
It looks just like this one…
Sellout.woot guys, seriously? this is ■■■■ of the public guys…
Everyone, just sign up for coffe, then cancel yer subscription… you get a brand new coffe maker and coffee for $15 shipped
Refurb coffee maker?
This just seems wrong. Like used socks.
Thank you Woot, that product description made my day.
This is the most imorptant point - Its refurbed - just wrong
I almost bought this instantly, but then read the description to be sure that it was a grind and brew. It’s not, so luckily I did not get it.
I have used the Cusinart Grind and Brew when they first came out with it, back around 2001 or so.
That one was working fine until I replaced it with a newer model, around 2005. I gave the older one to my brother and he still uses it daily to make his coffee.
And mine still works to this day, flawlessly.
I mention this in support of my opinion that these Cuisinart coffee makers hold up well and make a really good cup of coffee.
Yes, there are those people who will have problems with their Cuisinarts, but that does not mean squat since all products have bad apples. If they didn’t then we would not need warranties, would we. And if we restricted our buying to only items that have never failed others, we would not be able to buy anything.
E.g., I think Japanese cars are outstanding products, but you can go by a dealership or an independent garage and see all models in for repairs and warranty work. I digress, forgive me. (It’s just one of my peeves, people who post in here that they had problems with an item and to use that as a basis to opine the product is junk.)
Anyway, the Grind and Brew machines are certainly more intensive in terms of mechanics and function. If those have held up so well, I can only conclude that this coffee maker will last just as long. If you are sitting on the fence with this, I recommend it.
This will look stylish in the kitchen (friends will be impressed seeing it on the kitchen counter. You will hear people say “Hey, he is doing well, did you catch that $100 coffee maker he has, a Cuisinart no less.”
Warning: Don’t have this delivered to your workplace and don’t open it there. If you do open on seeing the box on your office chair, ready to be taken home, the boss will think you are having too much fun and that you are up to no good.
Player’s Tip: owning this coffee maker has been known to get one laid.
Bonus Player’s Tip: At nightclubs tell the ladies that you have a Cuisinart. They will chase you all the way home, each hoping to be your selection for the night.
Super Top Secret Player’s Tip: For the women who doubt you own such a fine machine, take your owner’s manual along as proof of ownership.
Real Man Tip: Want to make your friends and co-workers at a barbecue feel like girlie men? Are you tired at those get-togethers of being a man in name only? Well, when they start talking football, draft picks, etc. bring up your Cuisinart. That will shut them up.

I have two Weatherworks CH4300 coffee makers that only worked for a week before crapping out. Anything made by Vector brings to mind other “quality products” I will call JUNK!
