Great coffee maker, just make sure you don't get the LCD display wet when you try to clean it

Consumer review by:

great cup of coffee

 

great cup of coffee

This is better than my first one( it was old and worn out ). Is it a little noisey, yes but remember your grinding coffee and not smashing grapes like Lucy did ( I LOVE LUCY ). Great purchase, buy one.

Outstanding product if you know how to clean it

 

Outstanding product if you know how to clean it

I have had this product for several years and have never been dissatisfied. People complain that it is hard to clean, I disagree. I rinse the guts of the machine and put them in the dishwasher, no problem... Once a month I take my kitchen hand...

Product Specifications

CusinArt DGB-500W Grind and Brew Coffee Maker - The fundamental concept behind Cuisinart's Grind and Brew system is preservation of flavor. When coffee beans are freshly ground, the natural oils that result contribute to the natural, complex flavor. As ground coffee sits, these oils dissipate and their unique properties fade. By integrating a grinder into the coffee maker, you're assured of getting the optimal flavor from the coffee bean. Re-useable Gold-tone filter Charcoal filter helps filter impurities from water Grind off (turns off the grinder in case you have coffee) Brew Pause Comfort-grip handle Taste Keeper lid keeps your coffee fresher, longer Self-clean setting with a time-to-clean monitor Power Cord Storage Color - WHITE
