Title: Quality and Performance and why it's superior to Cuisinart,
Review: The features are outstanding including water hardness selection for the filter reminder, variable time heating plate time off, brew-strength selection, auto on, and small batch selection. Plus, the coffee is excellent every time. Some have voiced a complaint about there being no exterior water fill indicator. That's not a problem for me as the coffee pot has the markings on it - simply fill the carafe and pour into the reservoir. There is also an inside step level marking in the reservoir should you wish to use that. So, the lack of an exterior water level indicator is not important to me.Now, why better than Cuisinart?I had long been a Cuisinart fan. ALL of my appliances were Cuisinart [coffee maker, burr grinder, toaster, immersion blender, griddler, electric knife.] My DCC 1200 coffee maker lasted a long time - over 15 years. I got it when they first came out. It finally stopped so I got the highly-rated DCC 3200 14-cup model. It did perform as Consumer Reports stated - excellent brew performance. However, soon after I got it the black heating plate finish started to wear off. The DCC 1200 never had that problem, however, within a few months the DCC 3200 paint finish wore off. I found that other users were also complaining about this. The coffee maker finally stopped working after only 2 1/2 years. Two years ago I purchased a new Cuisinart food processor. It was dead on arrival. Cuisinart is no longer a well-manufactured product.

Title: This is IT!!!
Review: Okay, let me first off say I LOVE this coffee maker!! It took me a few years, and coffee makers of 5 different brands to finallycome back to Braun. My old Braun, that was my father's and was handed down to me, hung in there a total 15 years ofconstant brewing excellence. But when it came time to replace her, costs for a new Braun were astronomical!! I wish I hadjust gone ahead and not wasted the time and money with the others. This brewer is definitely a great brewer for the "Under $100.00" bracket buyer. One, it just LOOKS damn good on thecounter-top and uses a smaller footprint than most. Second, no escaping steam while brewing. Seems Braun figured outhow not to ruin your cabinetry with the brewer steam by forcing it BACK into the brewing area. Three, ease of set up anduse,...self explanatory, EASY!! Four, Makes an excellent pot of coffee. Yes, it does!!! I had evidently forgotten what agood cup of morning Joe tasted like for years in this house,...TILL NOW!!! I am the only coffee drinker in this house, unlesswe have guests, so I require good coffee. Welll,..I now know what has been missing in my day. REAL BREWED COFFEE!!Five, do yourself a favor, buy a slider to pull the maker out and slide back in. It takes up even less space that way. Six, conefilters, yes, cone filters!!! Throw out those basket filters right now!! If you want a really GOOD soak on your ground coffee. acone filter is the way to go. Seven, it's quiet. Yes, quiet,... stealth quiet compared to others I have owned. I didn't even realizeit had completed the cycle except for a beep. Eight, did I mention it looks damned impressive in a kitchen?? Nine, multi brewchoice and heat (pot) choice. Ten, easy to set up for morning wake up pot of Joe. Eleven, well made compared to most I haveseen that were much more expensive and/or cheaper. Twelve, read the other reviews,...but I'm a bit skeptical of the negativeones. After reading some of the bad reviews and getting mine, I thought, "Really?". Basically, I am VERY pleased with my Braun KF7150BK Coffee Maker and no, I didn't get any compensation or get mine forfree. Just a very happy coffee drinker singing this coffee maker's praises so MAYBE I can help someone else find theirperfect coffee maker. OH, by the way,...this was a "refurbished" Braun even!!! Didn't even have the plastic opened inside!!!

Title: Only Lasted 2.5 years
Review: Worked great for 2.5 years then the Error E01 showed up this morning.Very pleased with the quality of coffee it made for us and the temperature, but 2.5 years is unacceptable in my opinion. These last 4 months I've been leaving it on auto off at 4 hours in high temp. Not sure if that caused the heating plate to smell funny like burnt wires. It made a strange noise last time I ran it that caught my attention because the machine was on idle holding temp after having brewed the pot 2 hours prior.

Review: This is without doubt the very best drip style coffee maker I have ever owned. After a number of relatively inexpensive big box store coffee makers over the years, notably models from Mr. Coffee and Black and Decker, functional but not exceptional, I decided to "splurge" on this higher priced Braun unit.The first one arrived with a loose, wobbly, ill fitting lid which Amazon very kindly replaced for me despite it being slightly beyond the return period. The second machine is perfect. It looks elegant and very upscale on my kitchen counter. Almost Barrista!!The materials and the design simply exude quality. It is a breeze to operate once it has been set up which only takes a few moments. I think, but I'm not sure, that my morning coffee actually tasted better once I began to use this machine.I know it has more features than I will likely ever use to allow me to adjust the brew strength. However, as of yet, I have not experimented with any of these. I can tell you that the brew cycle takes less time than any of my other coffee makers. It is also far quieter during the brewing stage and the first of my three mugs of morning coffee is as hot as I would wish it to be with no need to revert to the microwave to add a bit of additional heat as was the case with my last Mr. Coffee coffee maker.While a bit pricey to be sure, it is without doubt, worth every penny. This machine strikes me as incorporating the very best of European design and manufacture. It should last for years to come!

Review: Terrific little machine. No regrets. Makes great coffee ...and it's hot which is how we like it. Love the temp control and clean feature. Not as quiet as some reviews would suggest. But love it overall.
