About Cuisinart SS1210 12 Cup Thermal Coffeemaker
Overall Feedback:
77% positive
82% appreciated the user-friendly design
The coffee machine looks good in a modern kitchen.
The coffee machine is very straightforward and user-friendly.
85% liked the temperature control, but 15% faced issues
The carafe temperature setting is not working properly.
86% appreciated the quiet operation, whereas 14% found it noisy
The machine makes loud "puffing" sounds as I brew for several minutes.
I turned off the coffee machine because it was beeping loudly like a fire alarm, but now it works perfectly.
My wife is concerned about the noise level of the coffee machine, which sounds like the glass is breaking every 10-15 minutes when it is heated.
The coffee maker makes subtle clicking/cracking noises while heating or on warm. I usually keep it on high, so I'm not sure if it does this on other temperature settings. It's rather annoying, and I'm not quite used to it yet.
85% found it easy to clean
I found good instructions for cleaning the device regularly using white vinegar to prevent mold.
The coffee machine is easy to clean. I compared it with my previous model which got dirtier around the shower head just above the grounds.
I empty the filter basket every morning, wash everything out, and wipe down all the surfaces. This coffee maker is super easy to clean.
This coffee machine is very easy to clean. The water filter is replaceable and easy to swap out. The filter basket separates from the unit, lifts out easily, and is very easy to rinse out.
87% praised the sturdy construction, although 13% found it flimsy
I noticed that this is the first coffee pot where I have seen the reduced quality of the material. The cheap plastic and 'stainless' surface are impossible to keep clean due to the cheap finish.
I was disappointed with the coffee maker's build quality, expecting better construction for the price range.
I noticed that the heat plate rusts very fast and started within a month of use. It doesnt impact functionality but speaks to build quality.
The heat plate rusts quickly, but it doesn't affect functionality and speaks to the build quality.
84% liked the fast brewing speed, while 16% didn't
I noticed that the water cannot get through the basket fast enough, resulting in grounds going around the basket and into the reservoir. This indicates that the brewing speed is slow and not efficient.
The brewing speed is slow and not efficient as the water cannot pass through the basket quickly, causing grounds to go around and into the reservoir.
Brewing a 10 cup pot of coffee takes more than 45 to 60 minutes on my coffee machine.
The brewing speed of this machine is slow, especially with the BOLD brew setting. It takes about 13-14 minutes to brew 14 cups of coffee and seems to hesitate and cycle longer in that mode.
83% liked the high-quality brew
The coffee is brewed at a heat level that extracts all flavor and stays hot for as long as programmed.
