DBG-300BK

This is very good grind & brew machine. We had one for several years and when it quit on us, we tried to buy another one. Unfortunately, Cruisnart has discontinued this model. We need this model because of limited height restrictions. Ordered on...

Works well, but not very durable

We're on our second one of these. They tend to last about 2 years, and then something breaks or fails. Fortunately, I'm mechanically inclined and have been able to fix or work around most problems. So far, (1) the cover latch has broken. For a...

Worst coffeemaker on earth!!!! Bar NONE

 

Worst coffeemaker on earth!!!! Bar NONE

The only good thing about this dog, is that it fit in my trashcan. Grounds everywhere, and what doesn't stick to every piece of plastic, might actually make you a cup of coffee...if you are lucky. In order to make a pot, you have to clean and dry...

Product Specifications

Cuisinart DGB-300BK 10 cup coffee maker, black. Freshly ground coffee: The coffeemaker lets you grind your favorite coffee beans and then automatically puts the grounds into the filter to brew.

Great Taste: The coffee bar flavor system is the same special brewing system found in commercial coffeemakers. Simply set the number of cups being brewed, for coffee bar flavor at home.
