Good product, great price Nov 19, 2009 I wanted a grind-and-brew coffee maker for the longest time. Very happy with the product, it's easy to use and clean, and looks great in the kitchen. Love that I can wake up to the smell of freshly brewed coffee. The only thing is that it's pretty loud when it grinds the beans.. it definitely can double as an alarm clock!
Greatest Coffeemaker Nov 12, 2009 This coffeemaker is the best we have had! Makes 12 Cups, beautiful design, easy to keep clean, and makes the best coffee! I would recommend this coffeemaker to everyone who likes to grind their own beans.
Great while it lasts. Nov 05, 2009 I received this coffee maker for Christmas, and loved it from the start. It was convenient, fun and made great coffee. Then, the grinder stopped working, and the company replaced the coffeemaker for me immediately. About a year later, the grinder again stopped working, and the company again replaced it for me. (the service is great.) After the 3rd coffeemaker also, the company again would have been happy to replace it for me a 3rd time, but, unfortunately, our 3-year warranty had expired. If you want to continue replacing your coffeemaker ad infinitum, you will love it as long as you have it available.

Great, but not for the messy at heart Nov 02, 2009 Just bought the DGB-500BK after doing much research and reading lots of customer reviews. I am thrilled, but I will offer the following caveat: do not buy this, or any similar machine, if you are not prepared to thoroughly clean and DRY it after every use. Yes, there are lots of parts to rinse. Yes, steam from the brewing does gunk up the grinder. that's the nature of the design. The cleanup process is really not that time consuming and, in a weird sort of way, it helps you to sort of bond with your machine. It becomes part of the overall coffemaking experience. To me, seeing the nicely rinsed compenents laid out to dry makes me start looking forward to my next pot.
The noise thing is a non-issue. It is really not that loud and only lasts a few seconds. I never hear it from elsewhere in the house. It's not even a third as loud as ice grinding in a blender, and I've never known that to stop anyone from enjoying a daquiri.
I almost always brew less than four cups, and the 1-4 cup feature really works. I no longer have to nuke a freshly poured cup in the microwave to get it up to drinking temperature. It is also a bit more compact than most grind and brew machines, and fits under my upper cabinets even with the top lid open. The only real minus to me is the water measuring system, which requires that you lean over and peer down inside the unit. Easy to avoid by simply using the measurements on the carafe itself and adding just a bit more than called for in the final brew.
Bottom line: a great machine which makes great coffee but requires a bit more participation in the process than the standard nineteen dollar coffemaker.

Have absolutely LOVED this coffeemaker! Oct 28, 2009 We purchased this coffeemaker just over 18 months ago and have been very happy with it all along! It shows no sign of slowing down. We go through quite a bit of coffee here. Freshly ground quality coffee beans make all the difference, but you may add pre-ground coffee and turn off the grinding feature when needed.
Simple to clean. Maintains the best temperature of any coffeemaker I know of without over-heating. Attractive on the counter.
We always appreciate the wonderful aroma of quality coffee at home & save those stops at the coffee shop for buying better coffee beans!
Purchase & Enjoy!
