Product Description
The Cuisinart automatic 12-cup coffee maker uses the same brewing system found in commercial coffeemakers so you can be assured of getting a truly satisfying cup of coffee. With its 12-cup capacity, you can bet the other 11 cups are going to be equally tasty. Easy to clean Gold Filter with easy swing-out basket Brew Pause Color – Black with brushed stainless-steel accents.

Strikingly retro in brushed stainless-steel with black-plastic accents, this 12-cup coffeemaker includes Cuisinart’s best brewing technology and premium features for ease and flexibility. The digital clock/timer is programmable for automatically brewing “wake-up” coffee at a selected time and for turning off the warming plate up to four hours in advance. Removing the glass carafe from the warming plate automatically pauses the brewing process for a quick pour, and the warming plate’s temperature can be adjusted. For maximum flavor, the machine can be set to brew one to four 5-ounce cups or five to twelve cups, and it includes a charcoal water filter. For convenience, a permanent Gold Tone filter eliminates messy paper filters and an indicator-light shows when needed. The coffeemaker measures 14-1/4 inches high, 8 inches wide, and 10-3/4 inches deep (including carafe handle) and carries a three-year warranty against defects.

Cuisinart DCC-1200 12-Cup Brew Central Coffeemaker Review
This coffee maker is attractive and can make good coffee. Unfortunately, because the interior walls surrounding the heater plate are the precise, dark brown color of coffee, from my angle the carafe always looks empty when it’s in the coffee maker. If you’re not clear-headed enough to remove and check the carafe every time you make coffee, you’ll have messy overflows and ruined pots of coffee.

I had been using an old, inexpensive Krups coffee maker before I switched to this one and wow, what a difference! I never knew there could be so much difference between a $40 coffee maker and an $80 one, but there really is. I’m the type of person that really loves coffee; I don’t just drink it to wake up, I truly love the taste and would drink it all day long if I could. The coffee from this Cuisinart is so hot, so strong and so flavorful! If I had to complain about one thing, it’s that the water fill level is inside the machine so it’s sort of hard to read unless you have a strong light directly over the coffee maker. Otherwise I would have given this one five stars. Great cup of joe!

After years of suffering through one cheap coffee maker after another, I finally made the leap and bought a quality product. Maybe part of my problem was that I am the only coffee drinker in my household and I wasn’t buying the machines, but I decided to take matters into my own hands this time. Well, it was worth it! After doing lots of research, and reading countless reviews, many on this site, I decided on the Cuisinart DCC-1200BW Brew Central 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, Matte Black Metal. Best thing I could have done! The Cuisinart is sturdy, attractive, and well designed. You will read complaints in other reviews about the opening to the water reservoir being too small, the clock being too small and the numbers for the water level being difficult to read, but these are all such nit-picky, insignificant things, it’s unreal. This machine makes a great cup of coffee! It’s very user-friendly and if you like your coffee hot, you can set it to take the skin off the roof of your mouth, if you wish. I’ve read reviews that this machine is too noisy, but it’s actually quieter than many of the others I’ve owned. The matte black finish resists fingerprints and this is the only true drip-proof carafe I’ve ever used. It’s even easy to clean. A can’t-miss purchase and I highly recommend it!

About two months ago it became necessary to replace my coffeemaker as the coffee was no longer hot. I went to Amazon.com and looked and read reviews. Based upon the reviews and even though it was a bit more expensive than some, I ordered the Cuisinart DCC-1200. This coffeemaker makes the best tasting coffee I have ever had at home. I am using the same freshly ground coffee and it tastes better. A big plus is the comfortable handle and no-drip feature. It really does not drip from the pot ever. My hands and fingers never get burned from steam when holding or pouring from the pot. Cuisinart has done a great job with this one. The other manufacturers can learn from this coffeemaker.

My coffee maker just died after 4 years, so I decided to replace with this model. It looked great in the pictures, and when it arrived. We were excited to try it out. The minute we turned it on it began making an electrical “Ozone” smell. We unplugged it immediately and shipped it back. We are not going to replace it. Too bad. It looked great. Also, the power cord is very short. My Krups cord was 44 inches log – this one is about 24. Just did not work for us. I cannot review the operation of the machine – we never got to use it.
