Had two Cuisinarts and loved those, but the lids were difficult

I would give 5 stars except would prefer the lid to the water reservoir be hinged to the reservoir, as in older version.

The construction of the coffee maker is pretty solid and simple, although a little bit flimsy in certain areas; the lid of the brew pot, and the joint between the base and the main body of the coffee maker, which is sort of odd.

My only complaint is the lid for the removable resivior isnt on hinges it just sits on top

Improve the lid to allow for faster flow and better seal after coffee is madeI would guess that my suggestions would raise the price quite a bit.

I don't like the new water resovore; lid isn't attached

The lid will in time get lost i'm sure

The lid came broken that covers the water reservoir

Lid is EXTREMELY difficult to close onto pot

Had it 3 days and it started to leak from the carafe not the lid from the actual seem of pot

It's a little weird not having the plate heat up but if the lids on the carafe tightly, it stays hot for awhile!

It is fast, loved thatPouring the brewed coffee is slow, I often twist off the lid if pouring more than one cup

The lid is a real pain in the butt when cleaning the basket, contributes to making a mess

Minor problems included the design of the carafe (the lid is easy enough to unscrew, but it is less convenient than a glass carafe for gauging the amount of coffee remaining), and the fact that there is a beeping signal to indicate the end of the brewing cycle - it sounds like a subdued fire alarm which is a bit disturbing, and there doesn't appear to be a way to turn it off (though you can press a button to brighten or dim the clock display

The lid is impossible to clean, the charcoal filter holder is useless because it's attached backwards; and if you don't put it on exactly right and set the pot in within a millimeter of exactly perfect or you get COFFEE ALL OVER THE KITCHEN COUNTER!!!!

Other more minor issues I had with it was the lid on the water reservoir is not attached and a bit of a pain to always make sure you have it the right direction.

I just don't like not being able to clean the lid.

Just a little annoyance when I remove the grounds each day, having to open a useless lid to the basket.

=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0The only grinder I have owned was the type you throw in the beans and press the lid down to grind

The water tank has a large removeable lids for ez filling

Carafe keeps the coffee hot for at least 2 hours, and the lid is easy to remove and tighten.

Shortly after purchasing I dropped the lid of the water reservoir and it cracked in half.

I'm worried that while manipulating the tank, I'm going to drop the lid and break a corner or something - why not attach the lid to the tank with a hinge?And speaking of the tank, it never fully drains, and is designed in such a way that you can't easily pour-out any remaining water.

The hottest I was able to get out of room temperature water (~76°f) was 175°f, well below the billed brewing temperature.

Finally, a full bodied cup of coffee - but - it was older and wasn't keeping the coffee as hot as I liked
