Stops working for no apparent reason

That is what happen to our three coffee makers. If it under a year cuisinart will replace it, over a year we order another one, Sorry but that is the down side of this coffee pot, we love the coffee it makes so we order another one.

I think it's a great coffee pot. Keeps the coffee hot for HOURS--MUCH better, in that regard, than the Mr. Coffee one we now have. The Cuisinart's 12-cup capacity is also great. The problem is, we had bought two of them, and they both decided to quit on us with no warning. The second one quit about a month after we bought it. I didn't bother trying to send it back because I was too disgusted and didn't want a replacement. For all I know, the Mr. Coffee will do the same. The electronics are screwed up on the Cuisinart; even before it stopped working both times, the clock and timed-brewing features froze, and we had to plug it in and unplug it to get it to work. I wouldn't buy it. I think it's a great coffee pot. Keeps the coffee hot for HOURS--MUCH better, in that regard, than the Mr. Coffee one we now have. The Cuisinart's 12-cup capacity is also great.

I am very pleased with ours, it keeps the coffee hot for hours without a heated base cooking it down to a bitter brew. The only thing that bothers me is that the white words by the buttons washed off early out.

The problem may not be with coffeemaker - but your electrical outlet. We had that problem with microwaves and toasters. AC power sometimes loosens wires inside the handy-box. Have an electrician (or someone who knows something about it) check the connections of hot-neutral-ground. That could be the problem...

We have had 3 of these pots. They seem to have a life of about 18-24 months and then one day they just quit. Makes great coffee and love the carafe feature. We have learned to keep a cheap spare for the morning it breaks. The problem is that not many make a 12 cup carafe style, so the options are very limited.

Most probably. Mine had the same issue too before it stopped working completely.

I'm not sure why it stopped working, I wish I knew, I also thought maybe the company would contact me but that hasn't happened either. I loved it when I first recieved it, would love another but now afraid to spend money on something that stops working after a few months.

I bought one of these and after about 3-6 months is stopped working. It seemed to be in some init loop. So I got another from RMA process with FreeTalk. Then, the same thing happened again. Some init loop and it no longer works. I've given up on them. Yes, it did work with Skype, but the product seems flawed.

I really have no idea why. Mine has been working perfectly from the start. Good luck to you.

I'm not sure, because mine stopped working and there is no way to return it.

try reseting it... if it doesn't work then it might be a problem with the device.

Mine stopped working and then randomly started working 30 minutes later. So I'd either wait and see if that works, or return it for a new one.

I got that message too, and then it just stopped working. You'll probably have to return it.

I'm unable to answer this question due toOurs stopped working within 3 months.

Mine did the same thing. Another user posted a link to this video in the comments. Following these steps got mine working again, and I now do this every 3-4 months (or more often as needed): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYyTFv_u3Sw

Mine doesn't work either anymore. I've learned it's better to spend a little bit more and get a better product. I bought another popular brand a few years ago and it lasted two years.

Sorry for your problem. Mine has worked fine with no problems. Send it back. May have gotten a bad one.

Hmmm, Only suggestion I can make is to unplug the power to it and plug it in again, sometimes it needs to be restarted.

Wow that's crazy. I have bought at least 3 of these and they all stopped working after a short time. I don't know why this is happening when you use it.

Maybe a virus? I'd take it into a repair shop to make sure, then claim warranty if it applies

Mine quit working as well. I contacted the company and they sent me a new one. Suggest same.
