Strikingly retro in brushed stainless-steel with black-plastic accents, this 12-cup coffeemaker includes Cuisinart's best brewing technology and premium features for ease and flexibility. The digital clock/timer is programmable for automatically brewing "wake-up" coffee at a selected time and for turning off the warming plate up to four hours in advance. Removing the glass carafe from the warming plate automatically pauses the brewing process for a quick pour, and the warming plate's temperature can be adjusted. For maximum flavor, the machine can be set to brew one to four 5-ounce cups or five to twelve cups, and it includes a charcoal water filter. For convenience, a permanent Gold Tone filter eliminates messy paper filters and an indicator-light shows when decalcification is needed. The coffeemaker measures 14-1/4 inches high, 8 inches wide, and 10-3/4 inches deep (including carafe handle) and carries a three-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

 Makes weak coffee September 5, 2008
Renee L. Pennington (Salt Lake City, UT USA)
I wasted a weekend trying to get a decent pot of coffee out of this machine. I finally noticed that the grounds were barely wet after brewing---there were even some dry spots. I think the machine was probably defective as it seemed to drip most of the water down the side of the coffee filter cone rather than on the grounds.
I returned it to the store for a refund rather than a replacement because even a correctly functioning machine cannot produce a full pot of strong coffee. According to the directions, the filter cone holds 15 tablespoons of ground coffee, which is just big enough to make about 6 or 7 cups of coffee the way we like it at our house.
I like my Chemex coffee but wanted an automatic machine with a timer so that I could sleep in a little later and still have a little leisure time to swill coffee at home before leaving for work. I have a Braun that makes great coffee (but it has no timer) so I know it is possible to get what I like from an automatic. This Cuisinart was a real disappointment.
 good, but with a major flaw September 1, 2008
Mr. Anonymous
This is a good and apparently a well-made appliance. It is flawed, however, by its internal water level guage. This makes it difficult set the level for six cups or less without having to rely on the markings on the carafe. An external guage would have been better.

I have had hundreds, maybe thousands of cups of coffee in my life. This machine makes some of the best coffee I have tasted. My coffee maker died after 8 years. I did much research (consumer reports) and reading of reviews on Amazon. I decided on the Cuisinart DCC-1200. It is a great deal at half price and free super saver shipping. I have been using mine for 2 weeks now and continue to be impressed. My friend came over last week and the first words out of his mouth was "wow, cool looking coffee maker" So, you get great coffee, its a great deal, and it looks great. What else are you looking for?
Great Coffee Maker August 31, 2008
Frank Worsham (Evans, GA)
I was hesitant to spend this much for a coffee maker but after using it for a couple of months I consider it to be a good buy. Brews quickly and the coffee stays at a good temperature - hot, but not too hot to sip. It's easy to clean. Best of all, the grounds stay in the filter - no splashing up onto the internals or creeping down into the carafe. My wife's not crazy about the "retro" look but I care less about that than the quality of my coffee. Starbucks is losing business to this machine!

This coffee maker I've had for over 1 and a half years is definitely proven to be an excellent one. So much so, that I also bought the same one for my parents, who are coffee fanatics.
