The Cuisinart percolator makes 4 - 12 cups of coffee.
The Cuisinart stainless steel percolator features a no drip spout to avoid spilling. The cord detaches for easier cleanup and storage. A see-through top knob reveals the progress of your coffee percolation. When your coffee is ready, a light shows right on the front so you know exactly when it's time to enjoy your brew!
Cuisinart was started in 1971, and in 1973 introduced the "food processor" to the American market. Finally in 1994 Cuisinart enters the coffee maker business.

While it worked for the last 1.5 yrs it was fine. But seems to me that’s a short life span for something so simple. Will try another make this time.
Art, yes that is unusual for it to stop working after only 1 1/2 years. Percolators by design usually last a long time due to the relatively simple design. Let me know what make and model you went with this time.
i bought one made by breville in australia 11 years ago and its now on its last legs and as im now living in england im trying to purchase another and some of my friends are wanting ones aswell. where do i go to get a new one.
many thanks
