Cuisinart Grind and Brew DGB900BCU Coffee Maker: A Total Improvement

 

I spent over five years with my Cuisinart Grind and Brew Coffeemaker DGB-500BK, I was fed up. What had seemed like a godsend at first had become a nightmare. The grinder parts got so difficult to remove that I would just wipe out the grinder in the...

many improvements over older model

still has a flat basket, huge coffee waster until you fine-tune

Definately gets me out of bed in the morning

 

My main complaint about this unit has to do with the design flaw. We use the automatic timer and 4 out of 7 days we wake up to a continuous beeping and clicking because for some reason either the basket over-rotates or the metal door gets stuck and...

Looks great, good tasting coffee

Bad design, breaks a lot, uses a lot of beans

A Very Good Cup of Coffee

 

I really don't understand why there are so many negative reviews out there regarding this model. I have had my Cuisinart Grind & Brew DGB-900 12 Cup Coffee Maker for a little over a year now and have been a very satisfied customer. My wife and I put it...

Great Taste, Convenient, and Attractive

Carafe, Auto Shut Off is Annoying, Very Loud

Now we're spoiled.

 

Our old Braun was on it's last leg, but had served us well. It was time for something new.

Great tasting coffee! Stays hot for the next person, three hours later

The grinder is a little loud at 2AM. Carafe pours slowly

Good coffee, but not without quirks.

 

After having a great cup of coffee from a friends Cuisinart Grind and Brew over Christmas we purchased one ourselves.   It seemed like the ideal machine - fresh ground coffee, an "all in one" appliance, and the supposed good name of "Cuisinart" behind...

Great coffee, reasonably easy maintenance and operation, all-in-one design negates need

Low brew temperature, absolutely silly caraffe design, small bean hopper, a bit of extra

I expected better tasting coffee from Cuisinart Burr Grind and Brew

 

The performance of Cuisinart Grind & Brew reminds me of the saying: Pretty Is as Pretty Does. Unfortunately, Cuisinart needs to take another shot at coffee fame with this luxury model ~ in short, it does make coffee, but the fact is, the coffee is...

Brews coffee and functions mechanically as it should. Attractive & solidly built

Lukewarm coffee, must warm carafe, grinder noise, can't grind without brewing right

Best coffeemaker I've ever owned!

 

Love this coffeemaker, I won't ever go back to a glass pot after this! Coffee stays hot all day! Plus the coffee quality itself is excellent!

Thermal pot keeps coffee hot all day without changing the taste, and very user friendly

If I HAD to think of something - re-usable filter takes longer to clean

Takes a few steps out of the process...

 

I work for a coffee company and this item was one of the products we offered in our catalog. I had heard great things bout it and wanted to give it a try.

Makes great cup of coffee... allows a lot of control over strength

So many pieces in this machine, worried it'll break. Very technical when first

Is it worth the price?

 

I recently purchased Cuisinart's new grind and brew coffeemaker with a burr grinder, which does deliver better tasting coffee than the old ones. It has two good innovations over their older non-burr grind and brew makers: 1.the burr grinder (obviously).

1.Burr grinder 2. Large bean hopper 3. Better tasting coffee

1.Coffee that's not hot. 2. Ungainly carafe that doesn't keep the coffee

Looking for the perfect cup of coffee at home?

 

After our Mr. Coffee machine suddenly stopped brewing coffee 2 weeks ago my wife and I went into a panic. I now had a new task... to find the perfect coffee machine. I spent hours and hours browsing the web looking up specs and reviews on all the...

Great tasting coffee; easy to use

Strange pour angle on carafe, coffee not hot
