Dodie85I’ve had mine for 12 years and always recommend it
salaciousremovalSame. This is really reliable and consistently brews a really good pot fast. We descale every few months, maybe 3x year if I’m good about it.
South-Helicopter-514This is what we bought last year when our 10 year old KitchenAid was slowly dying (do not take that as an endorsement of KitchenAid lol). We love it!
terptrekkerI have this one. Curious how you deep clean it?
trUth_b0mbsCuisinart drip programmable coffee machine. Replaced mine last year after 23 years. Mind you, I regularly maintained it and deep cleaned every 3 months
5pensGot my programmable cuisinart as a hand-me-down from my FIL about 15 years ago.
saillaveeWe just replaced our programmable cuisinart coffee maker. It was our trusty machine for about 13 years before the tank cracked and it started leaking. They’re not cheap, over $200, but it grinds and brews, is sturdy, easy to clean, and all I have to buy for it is the beans.
Blue-MittenI have been very pleased with my KitchenAid drip coffee maker the past two years. Just prior I tried Cuisinart, OXO, and Braun and was not happy with the coffee flavor and other features like size/configuration. The KA brew is very tasty imo and since it is programmable, I come downstairs every morning to the smell of a fresh pot. It has stainless trim and a sleek glass carafe so it looks nice on the counter as well.
