Title: Good coffee, until ...
Review: I agree with the design flaws that are mentioned - yet I quickly learned that if you pour the coffee very slowly, the carafe wouldn't dribble. My knuckles didn't like the sharp "tooth" on the inside of the carafe rim (that helped to hold the lid while pouring) which could almost cut you when drying out the pot. I also didn't like the fact that the water filler / basket access lid always dripped condensation down the back side of the maker during clean-up. The final straw with this maker was when the cord melted. Sure, it was up against the back side of a toaster oven - but in my opinion, all counter-top appliances should have heat resistant cords. I now join the ranks of the anti-Cuisinart folks.
Is the review positive or negative?
