This coffeemaker was my favorite wedding present over 10 years ago, and when I recently had to replace it, after a long life, I did not consider any other than the same model. Big enough for guests, yet can also brew a small pot just for me. Comes with a permanent coffee filter. It is sleek, easy to use and easy to clean. Sue in Stamford · cuisinart.com

Just purchased this machine and I absolutely love it! It’s quick and easy to use, with a compact design that fits perfectly in my small Air BnB space. It looks sleek and elegant on the bench, and most importantly, the coffee tastes fantastic! I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. Guesthouse · nespresso.com
