Original review: Feb. 19, 2019I have purchased many a coffee maker in my time and this DCC-3200 model meets all my demands! My last Cuisinart was great except the end of brewing alarm was just that. An ALARM and no way to shut the darn thing off which wakes up everyone in my 3000 sq ft home!!!

• Cuisinart Coffee Maker Troubleshooting

Very annoying! This one allows me to turn it off. Very smart for Cuisinart! I got the Stainless & Copper model and it looks beautiful in my kitchen.

Easy programmable for clock & auto program to come on at 4am with NO beeps! Keeps coffee hot for up to 4 hour and has a brew strength. So far I love this Coffee machine. Did I mention that I also purchased the matching oven! Original review: July 4, 2019I purchased a Cuisinart small bake and broil toaster oven recently. I had a GE previously for 13 years with no problem. I am 'afraid of this one'.

The first time I broiled a piece of salmon and it was ok. Next night I tried a piece of chicken and the entire thing was smoking and smelled terribly. I turned it off and used my big oven. Tonight, tried to broil salmon again. It started making popping noises and smoking again.

Don't buy this product! I tried reviewing the booklet many times and have used the rack in the correct position, but the same thing.

I just don't believe it. My other one still worked and I gave it away for this new one that does not work! Does anyone have any suggestions. Original review: June 5, 2019Although we have been satisfied with our Cuisinart BMKR-200 Series Bread Maker, I am wholly dissatisfied with Cuisinart's product support. I ordered a new baking pan by calling Cuisinart. The product did not arrive after ten days or so; I called back and learned that the order had not been fully processed.

After the product arrived, it didn't fit the machine - despite the fact that I had carefully verified the product model and serial number before confirming the order. When I called Cuisinart on Monday 03 June to report the problem and get instructions for how to return the incorrect product, the representative reported that Cuisinart's 'system' was inoperative. I was advised to call the next day. I also called the Conair Corporation's non-toll-free number, which was listed on the product packing slip to see if I could return the product directly. No: I could only do so by contacting Cuisinart. Black mahogany moodymann rarity face. I tried to contact Cuisinart by phone again, but the wait was so long that I gave up. A succinct email message sent via Cuisinart's website yielded no response - not even an automated acknowledgment.

The 'system' was 'down' when I called on Tuesday morning, as it was in the afternoon the same day. The representative instructed me to try again on Wednesday (today). I called this morning. Predictably, I couldn't resolve my problem because the 'system' was undergoing an 'upgrade.' What kind of company expects to sell its products when it can't even maintain an inventory management system or get it up and running after 48 hours?

Shoddy and shameful. Now all I want to do is return the faulty product (at Cuisinart's expense), get my money back, and shop for a bread machine that is NOT manufactured by Cuisinart. This brand has now lost all of its luster for me. Original review: May 21, 2019I purchased a Cuisinart SS-6 K-cup coffee maker less than two years ago. It came with a three year warranty and failed to power up so I called customer service to see what I needed to do.

They told me they would send me a new replacement and I needed to put the old unit in the box the new one came in and ship it back to them. The new unit arrived a few days later and I did as directed and shipped the old unit back to them.

When I took it to the Post office, the lowest cost method of shipment cost me almost $34.00., which made me very unhappy since that was almost 1/2 of what I paid for the unit when new. My wife called customer service to complain about having to pay almost $34. To ship it back, the rep said that all we needed to do was to cut off the cord and send it to them. That was not what I was instructed to do and by following their instructions it cost me over $30 more to send the machine back than just the cord. I emailed Cuisinart customer service and ask for a refund of the difference in cost as they gave me incorrect information. It has been about a week and I have not heard back from them so I assume they will just ignore me. Our kitchen is full of Cuisinart products but as a result of this issue I will not be buying any more of their appliances as their customer service on this matter has been very poor.

Original review: May 19, 2019As I have had two of these machines now, bought one brand new and one was giving as a gift, they both have the same quality issue - leaking water out up to about a two to three yr period. They worked just fine and then all of a sudden, water on the counter top below machine. Maybe a coffee cup amount. When the first one did this, I took the bottom plate off. It was completely covered in rust.

Apparently this company knows a problem exist from all the reviews from customers who have the same problem with their machines. The plastic tubing inside is defective. It cracks or a pin hole ends up being the problem. I tried some water tight sealant over the crack and that worked for about 3 weeks and it started up again.

Never did get it to stop leaking. The 2nd machine did the same thing - leaking - bottom plate was rusted.

This plastic tube leaking was farther up inside the machine where I could not get it too. Also both of these machines started making a noise, sound like a grinding noise from when the water is being pulled in from water tank area. What I found out is the so called water pump motor is the issue. After a few yrs the noise got louder and louder.

Did not need a alarm clock anymore. 5 am and the echo thru the house from the auto timer of the coffee machine, the grinding noise started up. The only thing that still works without a hitch is the automatic bean grinder with the machine. I still the grind part for the basic drip coffee machine now.

The Cuisinart coffee grinder allows coffee lovers to grind their beans at home in small quantities. While the Cuisinart coffee grinder is built to last a lifetime, it may need special attention at times when it malfunctions. Keeping the grinder clean and well maintained can help preserve the integrity of the unity.

Fixing the Cuisinart coffee grinder is easy and can save you the trouble and money of having to buy another one. Thoroughly Clean ItThoroughly cleaning the Cuisinart coffee grinder may do the trick. If the grinder has not been maintained and cleaned after each use, it can easily build up excess coffee grinds in the turning mechanism at the base of the blade. Use a damp cloth to remove any excess coffee particles and oils from the stainless steel grinding bowl. Use a sharp object such as a toothpick to get in the small areas of the grinding blades and remove any compacted coffee grounds. Fill the grinder with dry raw rice. Grind the rice for 30 seconds and remove the ground rice for a cleaner, scoured grinder.

Check the Electrical ComponentsCheck the electrical components of the grinder with a multi-tester. Make sure the grinder is unplugged before checking the electrical components of the machine. With a flathead screwdriver or a butter knife, pry the bottom of the Cuisinart coffee grinder from the base of the machine. The main motor is found in this compartment and will easily fall out once it’s separated from the body. Use a multi-tester to check the circuits in the base.

Each one should be a closed circuit. If you find that it is not responding, you may have to replace the circuit or call Cuisinart to see if it’s under the warranty. Check that the power cord is not damaged.

Cuisinart Coffee Maker Troubleshooting

Check PartsCheck all the parts of the grinder. Check the on/off switch to make sure it is connected and operating properly. Many times the operating button can get coffee grounds lodged in the switch, causing it to malfunction. You can use pressurized air to clean any grounds out if that’s the case. Look at the blades inside the grinder. If the blades vibrate when you push the grind button, then the blades may be bent or the motor may be clogged.
