Pros: Good idea, Good coffee when it is clean, Can double as an alarm clock Cons: Cleaning, spills, leaks, design flaws
I have owned this coffee maker for about 5 years and although it does the job there are several huge design flaws. The Good Innovative idea and makes good coffee when it is clean. Also makes a good alarm clock because the grinder is a little louder ...

Pros: Coffee tastes good, keeps coffee hot. Cons: Super messy, grinder sticks, basket pops open, too much trouble.
In theory, this coffeemaker seems terrific in that all you have to do is put the beans in the grinder, set it at night for the morning or start it right there, and you have a perfect cup of coffee. Unfortunately, reality is that any time you save ...

Pros: Great design, great tasting coffee. Easy auto-brewing set up. Large carafe. Cons: Steam-build up in grinder mechanism, hard to poor carafe. Water leaks on counter over time.
Like other reviewers, I overlooked the shortcomings because I like Cuisinart and the integrated grinder with a carafe meant no need for another appliance on the counter and a carafe to pour the coffee into (I hate the taste of coffee after sitting on a ...

Pros: Grinds and brews in one machine. Cons: Grinds and brews in 101 steps (a slight exaggeration), annoying thermos.
I purchased this at an outlet store because the box was bashed. I didn't care - I was so excited to have such a fancy coffee pot at a great price... That's the good news. Now for the rest... There are MANY steps to get your coffee: pouring in water, ...

Pros: Carafe keeps the coffee hot Cons: Not enough room here to list all the cons.
I bought this 2 years ago based on its name. My mistake. Usually Cuisinart is a good brand name. This time they missed the ark badly. Before I start with the long laundry list of what I dislike I will list the positive. The carafe keeps the coffee hot ...

Pros: It's pretty, so pretty. Cons: Need hearing protection to operate.
We bought this machine because we were tired of the mess the grind and transfer process made. This coffee maker solves that problem, but creates several new ones. For example, the grinder needs to be washed daily, in addition to the obvious parts such ...

Pros: To me anyways, easy cleanup, 30 seconds or less, love the grind sound Cons: none
This is the best tasting coffee that I have ever had the pleasure of drinking. I think some of these negative issues other people are having with cleanup is being a little lazy. Its no big deal cleaning this thing up. As far as the looks, I like the ...

Pros: Makes a hot pot of coffee that remains hot for a few hours. Cons: Flawed design overall.
I bought the Grind & Brew for my husband last Christmas with little research on my part. Big mistake. My husband enjoys having his cup of Joe first thing in the morning. It used to be an easy chore with our Krups machine of 10 years. We'd placed the ...

Pros: Grinds coffee beans. Cons: Price, clean-up, spills, coffee not hot.
My wife and I were excited to finally get a replacement for the older model Cuisinart Grind & Brew DGB-300 (which we had replaced twice due to the LCD readouts and warmer plate not functioning). This new model DGB-600 seemed easier to clean and had a ...

Pros: Great looks, very simple to figure out, it performs as advertised. Cons: The grinder does get a bit messy, and has an unusually short power cord.
I purchased this coffeemaker used at Goodwill, for $10. When it comes to all in one coffeemaker/grinder combinations, I test them out thoroughly to make sure all parts are included, as was the case with this model. After a quick cleanup, I set it to work ...

Pros: Thermal carafe
Good looks Cons: Everything important to making good coffee
Like so many, I was attracted by the good looks of this product and the thermal carafe. I previously owned a Capresso Grind N Brew, which had its own issues, but it is looking fabulous by comparison! Requires too frequent cleaning--I have ...

Pros: Looks good, keeps coffee warm. Cons: not worth the money; disappointing performance
Had this coffee maker for about 3 months when the grinder stopped grinding. Store it was purchased from was no help; turned to Cuisinart who had us return it and they ended up replacing it (with warranty not to start over but to pick up where left off). ...

Pros: The coffee did taste good when the grinder worked. I liked how the machine looked. Cons: Grinder only worked for about 1-1/2 months. Somewhat cumbersome to use.
I bought this from an Internet site with a good reputation. The machine lasted just a bit longer than their return policy of one month. So I was stuck with dealing with Cuisinart. Their customer service is terrible -- they either don't pick up the phone...

Pros: Looks great Cons: Blade grinder, brew basket too small, cheap plastic interior, sticky gunk everywhere from steam
I'll admit, the attractive looks of this machine drew me in. My Mr. Coffee had a great career, but it was time for an upgrade. I eagerly followed the instructions, tossed in the recommended amount of quality beans and awaited-what I anticipated to ...

THE CARAFE HOLDS 10 CUPS OF COFFEE, BUT PLAN ON AT LEAST ONE CUP FOR YOUR COUNTER AS IT RUNNING DOWN THE CARAFE WHILE YOU POUR.. SO KEEP...
