I’ve only had this coffee maker for about a month so I can’t attest to it’s longevity. It’s my first Cuisinart product but it seems so far to be living up to the brand’s reputation for quality. The coffee comes out at the perfect temperature (piping hot, not scalding hot) and tastes absolutely delicious! I don’t know how well the water filter works since I always use filtered or bottled water to begin with. The tap water in Atlanta has a lot of chlorine in it which can make the coffee bitter, so the water you use is just important as the coffee you use. I set the keep warm timer to 4 hours and the last cup is as good as the first. If there is coffee left over I pour the rest into a thermal carafe and save it for later. If I empty the pot before the timer cuts it off, I make sure to turn the unit off to avoid burning any remains at the bottom. The handy “gas gauge” on the front is a great way to tell approximately how much is left. You’ll need to make sure the tank is completely empty before brewing a new pot. Although the water reservoir is removable, I find it easer to use a pitcher or large plastic cup to fill it from the top. The LED light above the dispensing alcove is a handy feature to let you know when your cup is almost full.Other reviews I’ve read complained of leaks and drips. I’ve not had any major problems with this but I did experience some water on my counter top one morning. I discovered that the drip pan had run over. I emptied the pan and dried everything off. Then I ran the unit again without the coffee. I small amount of water (no more than a tablespoon) runs into the pan near the end of the brewing cycle. Once brewing stopped, I opened the lid and observed that the steam generated during brewing had condensed into water droplets on the lid and shower head. As I tilted the lid back more droplets ran down the rear inside of the unit and out into the drip pan. My conclusion is that there is not anything wrong with the unit and that the water running into the drip pan is just condensation and not a leak. I just have to remember to check the drip pan every couple of days and empty it. Problem solved.I have been using the included wire mesh basket to hold the ground coffee. The cons to this are that the basket is a bit difficult to clean and it allows more of the fine grounds to pass through resulting in a fine sludge at the bottom of the pot. If you use the mesh basket you’ll need to clean the unit more often. The pros to using the mesh basket are that you are saving trees and I think the coffee actually has a bit more flavor, and isn’t that what it’s all about?The unit is a bit bigger than it looks in the photo and does take up a good bit of counter space. It’s billed as a 12-cup unit but they are basing it on 5 oz cups. An actual cup is 8 oz so you are really only getting 7.5 cups from a full pot. I’ve had many coffee makers over the years but this is my first with a dispenser instead of a carafe. So far I’ve been very happy with it.In conclusion, while the unit is a bit bulky, it is very attractive. It is easy to use and maintain. Most importantly, it makes a great-tasting cup of coffee!

I purchased this machine after having a Keurig type machine for several years. I was tired of using the pods and the difficulty with descaling the machine. I like that this has a lever so I can fill up my coffee cup based on how large a cup it is; some cups are larger or smaller than others and this lets you control the perfect amount. I do find the programming buttons to input the time for the clock and the auto Brew Cycles difficult to use. Sometimes I push them and the interface doesn’t work and so I have to tap it some more or push harder and I worry that these will break in time. I appreciate that I can set this on a timer and it keeps the coffee warm. Unfortunately it only keeps it warm for maybe 2 hours and when you have two people using it who wake up at different times of the morning it is a little dismaying to wake up 2 hours after the machine has brewed and the warming feature has already shut off. It seems to be easy to clean and easy to fill and set the coffee and water. I like that there is a light that shines on the cup so you can see in a dark room. I think that the measurements are a bit off for us because our coffee cups are larger and when I program the machine to brew 6 cups of coffee for example we get maybe three and a half cups out of the machine so I have to brew more. Perhaps that’s because our cups are larger. This machine could be improved with a electrical cord that was a few inches longer as I have accidentally unplugged this a couple times trying to pull it out to access the top of the machine without running into my cupboards above it. Having the option to increase the warming cycle would also be nice.

After one day of use and two brews, I’m very satisfied with the Cuisinart DCC-3000. Like another user said, it’s tall! But there is about 1 3/4″ clearance to my cabinets. Like another Cuisinart I’ve owned, I had to pull it out from under the cabinets anyway to prepare it to brew, so what’s the problem? Slide it out, throw in the coffee and water, and then slide it back. Haven’t most of us done it that way for years?I really like the controls. They are simple…like the Cuisinart DCC-1200, but better arranged. A button replaced the on/off toggle on this new model, but it is otherwise quite similar. If you’ve own other Cuisinart’s like me, you will be instantly at home with this unit.Somebody must actually read these reviews at Cuisinart, because they did increase the size of the clock to the point you can comfortably read the black numerals on the electronic blue background from about five feet away. No longer must your squat down or get on your knees to program it with your reading glasses on. (But I’m still waiting for one I can see from across the room at the dining table. I know you techs at Cuisinart can do this!)The setup for the clock is almost identical to the DCC-1200 I purchased several years ago, and that made an already easy task very simple perform. With that done it was time to put this jewel to work.Pull it out from under the cabinet, Open the left reservoir and pour in H2O to the 12 cup line (water reservoir is scaled 3-12 in 1 cup increments). Want to make a 3 or 4 cups really fast…yes you can. There is a button for that.You have your choice of filling it on the machine or lifting the reservoir off and taking it to the water source where it might be more convenient for your particular setup. Lifting the hatch on the right hand side of the brewer exposes the coffee reservoir and coffee basket carriage in which sits one of those gold screen baskets. In this instance it is nice to lift the basket out and load it on the counter, otherwise I’d have coffee all over the counter and brewer. There isn’t much more to do to remove the coffee reservoir when time for cleanup later. I use a paper filter in the basket to keep the grounds in the coffee to a minimum.A full 12 cup brew was just under 10 minutes without some of the loud steam sounds familiar in the DCC-1200. That’s an unexpected plus. Put in your favorite mug or cup, press the dispense button and…Holy moly…what is that? A light came on above the cup so you can see how full you are pouring! Awesome!!! A nice little LED light that should outlast the coffee maker. (I tell you folks, they’ll get that clock up to the right size. You just wait and see!)And the acid test…taste. It was really quite good. I didn’t have anything in the house except some classic roast Folgers, but it was very good…way better tasting than average. Yep…a keeper. I drank the reservoir dry after several hours. I did not experience burnt tasting coffee as mentioned by some other reviewers. I would probably have appreciated it if they had kept the three position switch for the carafe temperature from the DCC-1200, in this model, but as I said, no burnt taste so far.Cleanup was very simple and I’ve already got it programed for Auto-Run in the morning. Do I miss the carafe from my old DCC-1200? Nope! In all seriousness, you will be happy with this coffee maker too. Cuisinart has designed and produced another excellent coffee maker. Is it perfect? No…But what is? They certainly have made some major improvements and I can almost promise you that Cuisinart is not through designing and building great coffee makers that last a long time so you can get your value from them.Don’t forget that you are getting the added protection and customer service from Amazon who have gone out of their way to make you happy and keep you there time after time.Update on March 02, 2015: I’ve had this Cuisinart DCC-3000 for 8 months now and am still extremely pleased with it. For those who asked about filling tall cups in this thing…yes you can. Secret? This coffee maker has a long enough electrical cord that you can pull the unit out to the edge of the counter. Actually, I pull it until it’s hanging 1/3 over the edge. Pull out the drip tray and set it to the side, and then you can fill up that giant mug from the 7-11 store. Really! I do it nearly every week before going to a bible study where we drink lots of java. If that clearance issue was stopping you from buying this great coffee machine, wait no longer.

This DCC-3000 replaced a Cuisinart Grind and Brew, which faithfully delivered great brewed coffee for years. And, only replaced for the unique features of the DCC-3000. So it afforded me the time to research many coffee brewing machines and their functions. Besides reading reviews, I asked my construction clients, business associates in real estate offices, banks and material suppliers their opinions of a wide variety of different makes and models of coffee brewing machines. I found they all pretty much deliver an acceptable cup of coffee, with only a few complaints or regrets regarding the application of the machines features.I’m not a coffee connoisseur nor a caffeine addict. I just appreciate what little does enter my system, be the best of its intended purpose. I grew up on a ranch with ‘Hobo’ coffee ( coffee grounds in water, simmered over a fire and sifted through a sorta clean neckerchief). The means were crude, but the results equivalent to the French Press…… well, sorta.I found the DCC-3000 complies to our requirement. We live in a split shift environment. My son is up way early, I pop up an hour later and my wife, with her international marketing is up as I’m leaving. With the soft heat warming feature and internal brewed coffee storage container, we all receive a fairly good cup of coffee. I did find the first couple cups of coffee ( when it begins brewing 12 cups) is a little stronger, and it is not as hot, since the temperature of the first few cups are absorbed by the cooler components of the machine. However, at the end of the brewing cycle, that cup is definitely the best. And, fairly consistent an hour later.My ideal coffee dispensing machine would accommodate a full one or two pound bag of coffee beans, hard plumbed to the RO water filter supply. Ground, brewed and dispensed, one cup at a time, hot and fresh in less than 30 seconds. I would consider that ‘On Demand’. Yet, it would be at a cost of flavor loss without steep time.The Grind feature of our prior Cuisinart was quickly bypassed. The internal humidity would dampen the grinding beans not allowing them to be properly blown into the straining container, and requiring special attention to function. The glass carafe was nice for appearance and viewing the content, but it required higher heat to keep at a good temperature. The stainless steel thermal container retained the temperature longer requiring less heating, but a loss of the familiar glass. Both of which are still just another item to deal with in the process of acquiring a cup of coffee. These are the features I considered when deciding to purchase the DCC-3000. After a few months of operation, the most I can pick on is the level gauge. Which, in itself, is the most feasible compensation for not physically viewing the brewed content volume. Not high tech, but it works.The price is well over the first coffee pot I used, but as long as they last, their features of convenience, ease of use and overall appearance, this unit is well worth the space it occupies on my counter. Yes it does deliver a good cup of coffee, as I demand….. and no neckerchiefs were harmed during the process.

I read through a lot of reviews on coffee makers recently before purchasing this one, and we’ve been very happy with it. I noticed a lot of reviewers for this coffee maker having similar issues with cleaning/grinds getting stuck, so I thought I’d write a review and add some pictures of how to clean and maintain this pot. That seems to be the issue.The removable water tank on this is why we bought it and it doesn’t disappoint. Just lifts out and it can stand on its own in the sink which makes it super easy to fill. There is a charcoal filter that sits where the water moves through so filling it from the tap is easy. We previously had a Cuisinart so I’m happy we can still use the same filters.The filter basket is easy to lift out and clean. It comes with a gold one but we prefer paper filters. The manual is VERY specific about using one OR the other, so don’t double up (like we did the first time.) I found Bunn brand filters are slightly taller than standard and work perfect in here. When cleaning out the filter, I just hold the handle with one finger and dump the whole thing in the garbage. Someone complained about the handle getting in the way and making a mess, so that’s how I prevent that. That gets rinsed and put aside to dry after each use.In my pictures next is the inside of the pot where the coffee tank is. At first I thought, how am I ever going to get this clean? After a minute I realized the entire tank simply lifts out by a handle!! I have a feeling a lot of people aren’t taking this out to clean it daily, and that will definitely cause issues. There are some grinds leftover no matter what we do so it’s very important to clean this. I just rinse it a few times and put it aside to air dry.IMPORTANT STEP! On the underside it says to push in on the valve while rinsing the coffee tank so that water flows through. This will keep any grinds from getting stuck. It’s got to be impossible to have issues with this machine if you’re doing this.My last picture shows the top view of the opening where the coffee tank valve meets the “button” to dispense coffee. There is nothing there, nothing to get stuck. This tells me that the issues of the button getting stuck and gunked up with grinds are because people aren’t taking out the tank and finding through the valve often.This machine is really well designed. All extra water in the machine funnels down to the drip tray, so there aren’t any weird puddles or spills. Drip tray is removable, so when my husband has to fill his huge Yeti before work, he just takes it out and leans his Yeti against the edge of the counter. The buttons and functions are easy to use, auto off is customizable which we like. The coffee tank keeps the coffee hotter for longer than your typical carafe. We grind our beans daily and our coffee is very consistent in taste.Our toddler loves to get us our coffee by using the button so that’s a fun extra. Overall, a really great machine with easy to use functions and should last a very long time with proper maintenance as per the manual.

My husband has been using the same old coffee maker for almost 20 years, refusing to give it up because he believed the newer machines couldn’t make really hot coffee. I finally talked him into trying the Cuisinart Coffee Maker (12 Cup Programmable Drip, DCC-3000P1). He loves it! Its so easy to use and he really like the way the coffee is stored so you can just hold down a lever to get a new cup. He can control the temp of the brew, so it gets just as hot as he likes it. He is very happy with it. Shipping was fast and packaging was good. I would order from this company again.

I LOVE Cuisinart’s Coffee-on-Demand coffee makers. Their 3 year warranty is fantastic too and they DO honor the warranty.They OBVIOUSLY listened to all the complaints about the DCC-2000. I had 2 of those. The first one died 3 times and was replaced by Cuisinart. Even though I LOVED that coffee maker, the condensation in the lid dripping down the back and the obvious electronic issues, I didn’t love. After the first DCC-2000 died after warranty, I loved it so much (looks, function and coffee taste), I bought another one and NEVER had an issue with the newer one (except the condensation in the lid). That DCC-2000 is now heading off to college with my son. That’s why I bought this one. Woot!It is a GREAT looking coffeemaker, though I really do like the more retro look of the 2000 better. I like the round coffee gauge on the 2000 better than the rectangle on the 3000, but that’s just a small nit. It’s still a great looking coffeemaker and that coffee gauge works perfectly.I LOVE the light on the clock…I can now actually SEE the time on it. That’s always a plus when it comes to clocks. 😉 I really like the new separate water tank. I can still fill it from my kitchen hose, so it never has to be removed unless it needs to be washed. The flow on this unit is smooth and even and the light over the cup is FANTASTIC! Now I can dispense coffee in low light. It makes delicious coffee too. I changed NOTHING in the way I make my coffee and it tastes just as good as it did in the DCC-2000.All the controls are intuitive…simple to set and easy to use. It even tells you when it’s time to be cleaned. That’s a great feature. I haven’t used the 1-4 cup setting yet, but I’m sure it works just as good as all the other great features. I used the Auto-On this morning and it worked. I awoke to wonderful, freshly brewed coffee. You can also set how long you want the coffeemaker to stay on…1-4 hours.Coffee-on-Demand is one of the best things to happen in coffeemakers. It’s not quite as convenient as a Tassimo, Pods or K-cup single serve, but it’s also not as expensive because you’re not buying the expensive single serve Pods or Kups. You really DO pay for THAT convenience. Not having a carafe to deal with is a huge plus, IMO.If you’re in the market for a new coffeemaker, I highly recommend the Cuisinart DCC-3000 Coffee-on-Demand. Cuisinart’s 3 year warranty ALWAYS brings me back to their products.Should I have any issues with this new Coffee-on-Demand, like I did with the 2000, I will come back and update my review. If it’s not updated, then you will know all is well. :)On edit: I just tried 4 travel mugs that we have and only one fit WITH THE BOTTOM DRIP PLATE MOVED OUT…the one that fits is 6 1/2″ tall.

My wife and I are very dependent on our morning coffee to start our day. After about a month of use, we are very impressed with the ease of use, the temperature and flavor of the brew, and all w/o a coffee pot.Based on the previous reviews of the shortness of the power cord, we were a mite concerned. Upon opening the package, only about 2″ of cord was exposed, making it impossible to plug into the wall socket. The directions said to unwrapped the cord but nothing was visible to unwrap as the cord was inside the machine itself. I pulled on the cord a few times and it wouldn’t budge, the directions didn’t specify the exact length of the cord but stated it was intentionally short for safety reasons and suggested using an extension cord (how safe is that?). In our uncaffeinated state, safety be dammed, we just all out yanked on the cord and about 16″ of cord came out. All is good again!!! Save for the cord and inadequate directions, recommend this coffee maker for it’s ease of use and the quality of the end product, A Great Cup of Coffee.

This is the most convenient and effort free coffee maker we have ever owned. It lasts forever and not only looks nice, but is easy to operate and clean. It provides coffee on demand. Would definitely recommend
Pamela –
This is the perfect coffee maker for me. I was so tired of using a coffee pot that slopped coffee all over when pouring. This looks great, is easy to use, makes great tasting coffee, and with the push of a lever you can deliver coffee directly into your cup. The light above the cup tray is a great feature.
