Cuisinart DGB600BC Grind and Brew Coffee Maker (Refurbished)

We love this coffeemaker. It makes a great cup of coffee ~ especially with the gold filter that was included. I love the stainless carafe ~ it keeps coffee hot for at least 2 hours (if it lasts that long) ~ Is easy to use and comes apart easily to clean. Priced well ~ we saved about $60 from the retail price ~ I highly recommend it!

This is a beautiful Coffeemaker, I liked everyting about it except, was very dissappointed, that it did not grind the beans as finely as I like. So coffee didn't taste as good as it does when I grind the beans myself. So sorry to say I've gone back to using my old coffeemaker, and grind my own beans.

The product is definitely refurbished. It came with minor blemishes on the outside and looked like it needed a good cleaning on the inside. It functions well, and I'm not really concerned about the requirement to clean it after each use which has been brought up in other reviews. I do that anyway and it is no more problematic than other coffee makers. Overall it is an average product, not a great product. It does make good coffee looks good on the counter. I like the idea of waking up to fresh ground and brewed coffee. Some things to consider: The carafe is odd. I like the idea of not having it sit on a burner, but it is difficult to use. The spout is designed so that you have to almost upend the thing to get a cup of coffee out of it. When you get to the last bit of cofee, you need to take off the lid, which is awkward. The water container is poorly designed. It is almost impossible to use the carafe to fill it. In order to see the cup indicators, you need to look directly down into the device. This is difficult to do when it ison the counter, especially if you are under 6'. An indicator on the outside of the device would be a much better design, I would have preferred the inside of the carafe to be glass rather than metal. I find it adds a metalic taste to the coffee if it sits there. So, I end up pouring the coffee from the carafe (holding it upside down all the while) into a normal glass insulated carafe. Oveall, a usable product, but really nothing special. The big feature is having fresh ground coffee, which is great., but I suspect the more annoying features will not compensate for that over time.

This coffee maker is a piece of junk. The grinder is really cheap and it makes a weak cup of coffee. I used excellent beans and completely filled up the grinder for 8 cups of coffee and the result still tasted like dishwater. Blech, I'm returning it. I'm still a fan of overstock though. They did their part sending it to me quickly. at a great price. The problem is with the product quality.
