Cuisinart created its Pink Series to help support breast cancer reserch. A portion of proceeds from the sale of every Cuisinart Pink Series product will be donated to this cause. This extensive line of premium prooducts in deleciously soft pink makes a lot more than just a styling statement! Not everyone wants a coffee maker that makes 10 or 12 cups. This one from Cuisinart is designed for one or two persons and makes four cups – just the right amount! Small in design, it takes up minimal counter space, too. The stainless steel carafe keeps coffee hot and features a dripless pour spout so there are no messy drips left on your counter. Another feature so popular with coffee drinkers is the Brew Pause that lets you snag a cup while in the process of brewing. The Cuisinart coffee maker has a 30-minute automatic shutoff and an “On” indicator light. To help you get started, it comes with an instruction book.Compact and handsome, this coffeemaker brews up to four cups of coffee and automatically pauses during the brewing cycle when the carafe is removed for a quick pour. Two safety features stand out: the coffeemaker automatically shuts off after 30 minutes, and the elegant stainless-steel carafe has a knuckle guard to protect against burns. Accessing the filter holder and water reservoir is a simple matter of flipping up the unit’s lid. A coffee scoop and paper filters are included. The coffeemaker measures 8-1/2 by 6-3/4 by 11 inches and carries a three-year limited warranty. –Fred Brack

Good flavor, strength, and temp.; can get HOT I hemmed and hawed about a small coffee maker and ended up buying this at a B, B, & B store locally. I have used a Cuisinart DCC-1100 12-cup maker for a couple years and so can compare the 2 machines well. I took a few pics of it as well.
The perfect coffee maker for one or two people I have had this machine for a little over a week now, and am overjoyed. I have owned more expensive “full-size” machines, and have always found that the quality of the coffee they make is quite poor when you are only preparing three or four cups. This cuisinart is a pleasant change on that score. The coffee I made this morning was flavorful and hot, and certainly better than what I can get at Starbucks or the equivalent. I’m a bit baffled by the negative comments I have read about the…
A decent coffee maker As a student, my coffee pot is my life-blood. I adore this little guy. I’ve had it for about a year with no technical problems. I will agree with the other reviewers that the caraffe will dribble if you don’t pour quickly, and it does not stay hot long after the auto shut-off. However, this is rarely a problem for me as I am hardly ever still around 30 minutes later (must be nice!). My coffee is perfect every time, the machine is easy to clean, and it’s compact and fairly stylish…
