Review title: DCC-1200: Three units have failed - coincidence? I think not
Product review: Today our third Cuisinart DCC-1200 totally failed. It will not brew coffee nor allow for self-clean. The coffeemaker had been leaking for quite some time so, quite frankly, I'm glad to see it go. When the first unit failed (out of warranty) I called Cuisinart and learned that the coffemaker is not repairable. Within warranty they just replace it. There are no repair parts available for out-of-warranty repair. The units seem to work for just under four years. The warranty is for three years. Yes, the DCC-1200 makes good coffee but it appears they are designed to fail. Our usage was just one pot of coffee a day, not exactly heavy usage. And yes, we cleaned/descaled it on a regular basis.
