Cuisinart DCC-2600 Brew Central 14-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker
I’ve had my DCC-2600 for over a year now and, in general, been very happy with it. It makes a good, fast, hot cup of coffee. It’s easy to program and use, has all the features I could want (and quite a few I don’t even need), and looks great in our kitchen. It wasn’t cheap, but the price wasn’t really unreasonable. I’m with other reviewers 100%, no complaints in those departments.
So, why not five stars? A few minor things.
For one, if you are using the gold filter and it’s not snapped in all the way, it will overflow the grounds and make a huge mess inside the coffee maker. The valve that lets you pour a cup while brewing doesn’t open all the way, and it backs up. Even being aware of this and doing everything to avoid it, it still will happen periodically and takes five – ten minutes to clean up.
The other irritation is filling the water reservoir from the carafe. Cusinart designed the inside of the coffe maker great with wide openings, but the lid and carafe shape make it hard to get in close and pour accurately. Half the time I end up splashing and having to wipe up the counter.
