[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The water keeps leaking over and over again even after reinstalling

Do not buy. I followed the setup instructions, but water did not flow through the machine. I found numerous tutorials, forum comments, etc describing how to prime the device for first use. Frustratingly, none of those worked. Irritatingly, very few of the priming instructions were found in the Cuisinart documentation. It's a known problem they don't have a solution for.

The water reservoir leaked all of it’s water out when filled, took about two minutes to empty.

The big handle on the left side does not do anything it moves freely but seem to have no function

i purchased my cuisinart coffee machine about 4 months ago, and to be honest I use it quits a lot, I looked at other models but cuisinart came out on top for value and all other answers to my search, best thing in our kitchen
