Seal Failures (LEAKING!) on 4 Different Cuisinart Coffee Makers So now I am asking myself why I keep going back to Cuisinart for coffee makers?ALL I can say is, I guess they’re in the right price point, because the next step up is into the hundreds of dollars… but all of my Cuisinart coffee makers have died from the same or similar problems of seal failures.I got my first Cuisinart coffee maker (identical but brushed aluminum look)… it had a seal fail probably a year then leaked water out of the bottom.I immediately went and got a shiny silver like this. I liked the look and the coffee it made so I figured it was a fluke and got a new one…About a year later, it a seal failure happened so that it no longer would bring water up from the water reservoir to where the coffee grounds were.Next one was an upgrade… slightly bigger and nicer… It lasted about 4 years then did the same thing… stopped transporting water so no coffee would brew. But I figured hey… looks cool… good…
update: recommend the dcc-3200 instead; they know what they’re doing with the three-year warranty Bought it May 2013. Just died November 2016 — doesn’t push water up into the coffee basket, even after multiple attempts to decalcify/clean.Prior to this, it’s been a champ. Used it almost everyday. Really like the programmable features, the Auto Off options, the carafe temperature options. We might buy this again and just figure on another three-year lifespan — but going to look for other options too before we do soupdate:We bought the DCC-3200 — newer model at the same price point. I recommend it instead. It has some nice features. It is neither taller nor noticeably deeper, but they get 14 cups instead of 12 cups. The water measurement is on the side of the coffeemaker instead of being inside the reservoir. It offers a bold setting which does strengthen the coffee (not what we need, but perhaps nice for others). An option to turn off the tones completely (this one we use and like).Perhaps most importantly, the lid of the DCC-3200 has…
