Product Description
When one appreciates coffee, the thoughts that arise distinguish whether it is the bean or the process that makes a more pleasing cup of coffee. Actually, it's a bit of both. The Cuisinart DCC-1100 uses a classic drip brewing process that brings out the most flavor the ground bean has to offer. Ready to deliver up to 12 cups, it has an additional setting that will deliver 1 to 4 cups, if that's what you prefer. A built-in timer lets you set the DCC-1100 to start an automatic brew at your selected time (imagine waking to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee).
This classically designed coffeemaker is accented with stainless steel for a look that is sure to enhance your countertop. The 12-cup carafe features an ergonomic handle, dripless spout and knuckle guard for comfortable, drip-free pouring. A gold tone coffee filter and charcoal water filter ensure fresh, delicious tasting coffee. You can also use #4 paper cone filters. Brew Pause feature lets you enjoy a cup of coffee before brewing has finished.
With its delightful red finish, this coffeemaker is an asset to your kitchen, dorm, or office. Rest assured that great coffee will only be a few touches away. Cuisinart 3-year limited warranty

4 out of 5 stars Cuisinart Coffeemaker   September 6, 2008
Sweet Lovable Mike (West Reading, PA)
I believe the Cuisinart name is synonymous with quality. The coffeemaker works fine. The only downside is the selector switch, which is too small and difficult to turn, especially if the fingers are wet.


5 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT   September 5, 2008

We purchased this coffee maker after reading the amazon reviews. It makes excellent HOT coffee. As far as the negative reviews...it's most likely USER ERROR!

Rachel McKee (Alabama)
I looked everywhere for a pink coffee maker for my pink kitchen. Cooks makes one and it is sold by JCPenney, but it got very bad reviews. Besides, I have other pink Cuisinart appliances. I love coffee, and I use it every day. It makes good coffee.


2 out of 5 stars Wouldn't buy again   August 17, 2008
Schopenhauer (Ojai, CA USA)
I wouldn't buy this coffeemaker again because the on/off button doesn't work very well. Even brand new, we have to hit the button several times, or push on it in a certain manner to get it to turn on. I suspect its a design flaw, but perhaps its just our particular one. I wouldn't risk buying this one again. Also, it has an annoying chime that threatens to wake up the infant when the coffee is done...maybe that can be silenced, but who wants to spend the effort


5 out of 5 stars Best coffee maker I ever had!   August 14, 2008

My name is Ryan, and I'm a coffee addict... My habit ranges from 1 to 3 pots a day just to remain conscious. So you can understand the level of misery I have had to endure this past week as my 4 year old Gevalia machine met an untimely death during a recent lightning storm. I then began the hunt for a new machine. Basically, Amazon was my first stop since they have everything. I read all sorts of reviews, and finally settled on this one. I must say, this is by far the best machine I've ever owned.

In reading the reviews, I found a few gripes that I don't agree with, so here's my response to those:

1. The number one gripe I see is filling difficulty. The fill hole is much larger than my old machine. Some people said its too small and makes a huge mess. My first time, it did drip a little bit but if you leave the lid off the pot while pouring, works like a charm. Let me put it this way... I wake up in the morning with the jitters, like a fiend looking for some crack... If I can pour it without making a mess ANYONE can. And that's a fact.

2. Numero Dos: Programming difficulty. I'm no rocket scientist by any means, but I had this thing programmed within about 5 minutes. I had no problem understanding the directions. I believe most gripes in this area are operator error.

3. Basket issues: It doesn't stand up on it's own, true, but I don't understand how anyone could miss the basket. Leave it in the machine for pete sake! I hope they don't miss their mouth with that hot coffee! Again, If I can do it without making a mess, anyone can. As for choosing paper or mesh filter, paper of course filters better, but mesh makes it stronger and leaves a bit of sediment in the pot... each way has it's benefits depending on how you like yours.

4. Flip-top so large you have to pull it out from under the counter: True, but how lazy can you be... honestly? It's not that hard of a chore. You'd be hard pressed to find a machine that isn't like this.

I, like others, had some pre-conceived notions from negative reviews, but I found most if not ALL of those to be some pretty weak arguments. I guess some people have more problems than others when trying to understand directions and such. This machine is top notch for the price, hands down!
