Summary: Cuisinart Grind & Brew - Great Looks - Lousy Production I was thrilled with our Cuisinart DGB-600BC stainless steel, thermal grind and brew when we took it out of the box on June 18th of this year. The coffee tasted great, loved using my own beans, and as many have said, the thermal carafe is slow pouring, but no more over-cooked coffee. Yaaay! I can even live with the jet-engine take off when grinding. But now, here I sit, with a lesser cup, made in our old, steady GE coffee burner retrieved from our give-away heap, and two coffee machines on the counter, and it is September 25 -- a mere 3 months since starting to use the Cuisinart. It simply won't brew and shuts off before I even check to see if there is coffee ready. We haven't ground any in months, due to the time required to make sure the bean hopper is nice and dry (it won't brew without it installed, and then gets steamy creating ground mush that won't flow to the basket.)So even functioning as a regular pre-ground machine, it has problems. We have removed the water filter, detailed the interior like a used Porsche, run CLR through it --- no coffee. Apparently, the problem is more serious and beyond our capabilities to fix it. It was a gift, so no return option, even if Cuisinart had a reputation for good service, which they don't. So, in the end, if you are looking for an over-priced, disposable coffee maker -- this is it. If you expect performance over a few years, as we do -- buy something else. Summary: Love it! I absolutely love this product. From the very first pot we have had great coffee. No problems with grinding or brewing, and I have no problem cleaning the parts after each use. I did it with my regular coffee brewer and separate grinder so it isn't any more work. I highly recommend this product to anyone who loves coffee! Summary: Okay, unless you want strong coffee My parents had had one of these beasts for a year or so, so I decided to pick one up when my older non-grinding Cuisinart started getting a little tired. I was a little hesitant, due to the flat bottom filter, but decided to go with it. I'm now disappointed that I did. I like my coffee strong. When I add my flavored creamer, I want to taste both coffee AND creamer. I want my coffee to wake me up. With this coffee maker, I have to fill WELL above the recommended fill line to get anything approaching a decently strong cup of coffee, and even then about 1/5 of the coffee gets left behind as caked on crud that has to be scraped clean every morning. Even then, I end up with a mediocre brew. I imagine that if you liked light coffee (or Coftea, as I like to call it), this might be a good call. Maybe if you buy the dried out beans, it won't create such a waste of expensive coffee. But . . . strong coffee with a nice, oily Italian roast? You'll be dissapointed. PROS - shiny pretty, programmable, water filter CONS - weak coffee, wastes coffee in grind, very noisy, exceptionally short cord, more clean up than I want to do before I have my coffee in the morning Summary: Please DON'T waste your money!!!!! This is the second piece of junk I have bought from Cuisinart!! They are over priced pieces of junk!! This coffee maker was a gift from my son only one year ago. It is already disfuntional!! It started when the grinder would go off randomly by itself, any time of day. Then the "grind off" button would not even work!! The other product I purchased from Cuisinart was a toaster. The knob broke off only have a year also. The biggest down fall, customer service at Cuisinart. Don't think you'll be able to email or call and they will roll out the red carpet, they don't...you'll be lucky if they even respond!! Stop buying their products!!! Cuisinart does not back them!!! Summary: High Maintenance Pain in my Morning Steer clear, I can't imagine a more poorly designed coffee maker. The product review states "When the aroma of freshly brewed coffee... wafts into your bedroom in the morning, you won't need your alarm clock." The truth? 1) The coffee is brewed into a thermal carafe, so there is NO satisfying coffee aroma and 2) you won't need an alarm clock because the grinder sounds and feels like a jet rocket - VAAAAAH-ROOOOOM! The machine is also very high maintenance. There are too many parts to clean and it's cumbersome to disassemble, reassemble, disassemble, reassemble, etc. Furthermore, these parts are messy - grounds scatter all about and frequently end up in the carafe itself. There is also no option to circumvent the hideous grinder by starting with your own grounds. The only nice thing I have to say about this product is the fact we got it as a gift (Thanks, Mom!) that said, I can't wait to replace it! |
