I accidentally cracked my original carafe on the granite counter top so I shopped for another. I decided to spend the higher $35 for an OEM, original Cuisineart carafe , figuring no sense in taking a risk on lesser quality. To my surprise the quality was not as good as the original, and it did not have the nice stainless-steel finish on the handle. Maybe I should've taken a closer look at the listing, most of the photos 'avoid' showing you this side of the handle, probably for this reason. I probably should've saved my money for the "same" thing in the other listings. OEM usually make me happy, this one didn't. For now, it'll suffice to hold some coffee.

Although I have only had it for less than a month, and cannot say with any degree of certainty if it will pass the test of time, so far, everything is fine. It works properly and I have had no issues with the toaster. What I did have an issue with was the packing. When I ordered the toaster, I also ordered two Honeywell room fans, each about 42” tall. All three items shipped at the same time and arrived the same day. In one box was one fan. In another, larger box, was the 2nd fan and the toaster. The larger box could have easily contained both fans. Instead, the toaster, shipped in the larger box with a fan. The packing was minimal. A very minimal amount of brown paper. No styrofoam. No foam core. No peanuts. No corrugated board. Nothing to prevent the toaster from being thrown about inside the box. For the most part, I am happy with cuisinartoutlets.com. But whose idea was it to ship two fans separately (when they could have been shipped in the same box), and then place a small toaster inside a very large box with no packing material? Mind-boggling.

Cheap nails and cheap glue. Broken upon arrival. Not sure this is even worth half of what it cost.

I recently purchased these edible butterfly cake toppers for a baby shower and I am absolutely thrilled with them! As you can see from the photo, they are incredibly delicate and add a stunning, ethereal touch to any dessert. The butterflies themselves are beautifully crafted with intricate wing details. The subtle purple and white hues shown in the image are very elegant and versatile, making them suitable for a variety of occasions from birthdays to bridal showers. They look almost translucent, which really gives them a magical, "fluttering" appearance when placed on treats. In my experience, they were easy to handle and position on the chocolate-covered cake pucks They seem to adhere well, and the slight variation in their placement on each puck adds to the natural, whimsical look. not much of a taste since they are meant to be a decorative element, their primary purpose is visual appeal, and they certainly deliver on that front. They elevate simple desserts into something truly special and memorable. If you're looking for a unique, beautiful, and easy way to decorate your cakes, cupcakes, or other sweet treats, I highly recommend these edible butterfly toppers. They exceeded my expectations and I'll definitely be buying them again especially at this price!

As you can see in the picture, The double espresso setting, even edited to the max level possible which was 100 ml, made "this much coffee" that you see in my cup.. about 1 in. The coffee taste not good. I tried three different flavors of a multi-flavored pack set. Also the foam is very very little. You can see there's barely any. Not good. The water reservoir is very tiny. Otherwise it's awesome

I've used submersion blenders in the past and needed a new one because I wore out the old one. This one is a bit of a disappointment due to design. The double buttons that you press to start it are difficult to press. You must really press hard to get it started. I have long nails and I have to press it with my finger nails not my finger tips. Plus the base of the chopper has three little rubber tabs on it where still slides around on the counter and makes it unstable and wobbly. The entire bottom should have a rubber base for stability. All the working parts work well but these things I mentioned makes it cumbersome.

I just received this yesterday and set it up with my attachments! Everything fits snugly and safely! I like that it has a lock on it, so it can’t open unexpectantly. I keep it up on the top shelf in my cabinet and that is a good safety feature, for sure! It’s lightweight and compact. Easy cleaning, just wipe down. It works well for storage. I was using my original storage box from my Kitchenaid processor, but of course, it didn’t fit well and I saw an accident waiting to happen! I even bought the dough blade, which has the spot for it!!! Now I’m all set! Perfect purchase! Can’t go wrong…

The pizzelle iron was so easy to use right out of the box. It included the recipe I used to make a great stack of goodies. I got compliments!

I was looking for a reliable convection microwave oven. I was stuck on a couple other options, which included brands like Toshiba and Samsung, but I’m glad I chose this one. Keep in mind that I don’t do any serious baking or actual cooking with this product. As the average college student, I felt it necessary to have a microwave in my room, but I also needed something to reheat the occasional leftovers like fries or pizza without the soggy mess of simply microwaving it. With that in mind, this product is amazing! It’s a bit large for my taste, but I was able to get it to sit nicely on top of my mini fridge. I also used the extra surface area to place a dish rack on top of it. As a microwave, it’s definitely more powerful than your average budget microwave. It heats my food pretty evenly, but sometimes there can be a few cold spots in the middle, but nothing major. The convection feature is incredibly convenient and works very well. In many cases, it could potentially replace a traditional oven. The heating element is only on the top, but that’s to be expected design wise. When the convection feature is turned on, there’s a fan that helps distribute the heat. My only con is that the interior stains pretty easily especially the back. Nothing a bit of cleaning can do, but aside from that, this microwave has given me no problems at all. If you’re looking for the convince of a convection feature built into a microwave you’ll find little to no compromises with the Cuisinart CMW-200.

Recently replaced a 20 year old kitchenaid food processor with a cuisinart. On my kitchenaid holder, I could more easily see which blade was which without touching them. I added a label for the discs which will let me not have to remember where I put the disc last without having to touch them. As many other reviewers stated, for some unknown reason the bottom of this holder is open. My kids use the processor. In addition, I store this holder in an upper shelf of my cupboard. Consequently, I was also nervous about fingers getting sliced (I’ve done that before when washing a disc-it’s NOT fun). We made a custom lexan bottom and held it in place with screws attached to a painted piece of wood. It works well and could be removed if for some reason I needed to open it up. I like the locking design ensuring that when I grab it from off my upper shelf, it is less likely to fall on me when the cover comes up.

I have made crumpets, English muffins and other stovetop breads in skillets and manual griddles of various types and after watching another person make a batch of crumpets on a similar electric griddle I decided to order this Cuisinart Electric Griddler Five to see if it would be easier as well as have multiple use features such as an open or closed grill, and panini or sandwich press that can be tilted to apply very even pressure. The unit is compact and attractive enough to earn a permanent place on my kitchen countertop and is simple to move to wherever I want to use it. In the fully open flat position I can easily pour and bake a variety of pan breads. Although the griddle plates are not perfectly level so as to facilitate drainage of oils produced by non bakery products, on my countertop I was able to level out the plates by setting the unit’s four legs on a thin bread board and then resting the wide cool handle of the opened top on a potholder. When using next to my smoothtop electric stove, I place the legs on the adjacent countertop and lay the handle on top on the cold stovetop, which is 1/4” lower than the counter. Either method achieves a fairly level result for both halves of the open unit. Just be sure the unit is cold and not plugged in when trying to find the best way to level your appliance. By getting both halves of the unit fairly level, good quality silicone egg rings as well as metal crumpet rings remain flat enough not to leak their contents and the nonstick surface of the griddle is very easy to clean. I prefer to wash all of my nonstick bakeware by hand but the removeable cooking plates for this Cuisinart Griddler can also be popped into a dishwasher. This Griddler is easy to set up and use. Instructions are simple. No matter the heat setting, the unit maintains the chosen temperature well enough to do the job. Grilling burgers and pressing patty melts took some time but worked well and didn’t create a mess. After the grill plates cooled down I wiped off most of the leftover grease and charred bits with a paper towel before removing the plates to soak in soapy water. There was no need to use the hard edged grill cleaning tool that came with the Griddler. After soaking, a soapy sponge took care of the softened residue and a simple rinse made the grill plates look new again. I did wipe the grease from the slide out plastic drip tray and popped that into the top rack of my dishwasher which worked perfectly to restore it to grease free cleanliness without any warping. My Cuisinart Griddler Five arrived extremely well packaged to protect it from the inevitable tossing about during the shipping and delivery process. I am glad to report that Cuisinart no longer applies sticky labels to any part of this beautiful appliance. The outer stainless steel surface wipes clean with a damp cloth, leaving it free of fingerprints. After unpacking my new appliance I simply washed and dried the grill plates, tested the heating coils to make sure they worked and then started pouring my first batch of crumpets within an hour. I use 4” (extra large) stainless steel rings to make my crumpets because they are a perfect size to also make English muffins and double as hamburger bun rings in my regular oven, too. As shown in my attached review photos, eight of these big rings fit comfortably on the two griddle plates when the appliance is in the fully open flat position. Using this Griddler has been much easier than cooking with any of my skillets on the stove. I have yet so see any damage to the nonstick surface of the griddle plates that are advertised as being non-toxic. And unlike many skillets, the plates do not warp when they are heated. I like the simple to use controls for heating this appliance and have not found any problems with them. The digital display and the timer work well, too. While it would be nice to be able to control each side of the griddle separately, I know the unit would have cost much more to manufacture to supply such a feature. Before choosing this particular model I found that high quality appliances with single side capability cost at least twice as much. I chose the Cuisinart brand because I have generally gotten very good service from other types of Cuisinart appliances over the last four decades. While a couple of other brands of small appliances have been just as reliable for me, Cuisinart seemed a safe bet regardless of where its products might have been manufactured. The Cuisinart design team is still one of the best. Even using it several times a week I hope to get years of good service from my Cuisinart Electric Griddler Five. If a problem does come up I will update this review to reflect that. For now, I can only recommend this high quality appliance as a great value that is serving my needs very well. Thank you, Cuisinart, for a job well done! 🙂

After two failed Keurig K-Supreme Plus Single Serve Coffee makers, we decided to pivot and search for another brand that can still use the k-cups. We settled on the Cuisinart Coffee Maker, Single serve 72 ounce Reservoir Coffee Machine. I am a big fan of Cuisinart products so we were confident of the purchase. Have used it now for a week, making 8-10 servings a day for the household. It has been a great purchase so far. We are experiencing none of the issues with the 1 star comments. It actually makes 12 ounces when you select that option. Coffee is piping hot. No lingering drips after cycle is done. Programmable power is very helpful for the mornings, knowing that it will turn itself on and off at the programmed setting. It is stylish and matches the overall color scheme of our kitchen. Only downside is the drip tray. Cuisinart claims that it can accommodate a 20oz traveler. We use Yeti and Orca tumblers for our coffee every morning so we needed to remove the drip tray. The remaining bottom frame of the tray has a hole in it, which will leak liquid onto the countertop if it drips when you remove your cup.

Nice little machine. Good looking machine with rather cheap “foreign” parts… but makes a tasty shot of espresso! I can’t wait to have my family over and make them drinks! Especially my coffee loving nieces! I’ve been researching good beans and learning that the key to a great espresso is fresh roasted beans. Looks great on the counter and doesn’t take up much space!

Like the ease of use but not happy with the inconsistent of the final grind product and very loud!!! Already broken no power.....I'm only one person so I didn't use too much but already broken just after 1 year!!! Pffft!

I've only used it once, I cleaned and seasoned it according to directions. I then cooked a shrimp subgum fried rice and the sticking was very minimal. Wok performed flawlessly and cleaned up easily, you can see it immediately after cleaning in the picture above This is not the first piece of cookware from this company their 12" Skillet is exceptional, that's why I bought this wok. Highly recommend this stainless steel cookware!
