One of the tidiest little grinder brewer in the market! Love the full-bodied flavour of freshly ground beans! The ground grit is a balanced medium that produces excellent flavour. The cleaning part is a bit tiresome (to be done after every brewing) but the coffee preceding it must give you enough adrenaline to do the clean up job!! And yes most components are upper rack dishwasher safe.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I ordered a Cuisinart Grind and Brew coffeemaker online and received it approximately a week later. Exactly 2 weeks later, while the machine was off, it experienced an electrical malfunction and a strong burning smell eminated from coffeemaker. I was extremely concerned by this occurrence that could have been potentially serious had the machine caught fire while no one was around. I have owned several other Cuisinart coffeemakers over the years. Am dispappointed, to say the least, by this experience. Also, it occured just a few days before Thanksgiving, which I was hosting, so I had to purchase another coffeemaker, as the replacement was not going to arrive until a week after Thanksgiving.

The worst coffee maker. Grinder capacity is too small and grinds always overflow basket and get into your brew.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Disappointed in this coffee maker. 1. No way to adjust grind and it grinds beans way too fine. 2. Cumbersome to clean all parts, which is required daily. Coffee has a bitter taste, though I’ve used only 2 brands so far. I’ve switched to preground coffee so I’ve paid for a feature I now won’t use.

This is a decent coffee maker but with a few issues. The filter holser is hard to secure and if u don’t put it in perfectly it falls out and coffee grounds spill. Also have to remember to turn off grind and cups before brewing . Lastly the area where u grind even if u don't grind has condensation and stays wet until u wipe it out …. never dries. Should be less money
I would recommend this to a friend!

I had the predecessor to the DGB-400 Grind and Brew. It was a pretty good coffee maker and I had it for about 10 years before it finally started leaking on the counter. So, I bought the DGB-400. There were a few improvements. First, it is much easier to program, and it is easier to set up and use. One thing I love about the new model is that I can pour the water into the tank from the front rather than the side. But the best thing about the new model is that the coffee tastes so much better. My wife and I both noticed how much better the coffee tastes even though were are still using the same beans we used with the old coffee maker. I set it to grind and brew at 5:00 am, and it is very faithful. My coffee is always ready and it is good. The new model is easier to keep clean also. I would definitely recommend this model to a friend, and the price is right. I was going to buy a few extra parts (such as the grinder and grinder lid) so I can rinse them out and put them in the dishwasher, but after researching prices, I decided it would be just as cheap to buy an additional DGB-400 and use some of the parts from it. In the event my new coffee maker has a problem, I have everything I need on hand already.

Extremely disappointed. Carafe leaks while pouring, have to wipe counter after every cup. If using paper filter we get grounds in coffee if using gold filter we get silt. Stopped using went back to our old coffee maker

This my 3rd Cuisinart Grind and Brew Coffeemaker. I love the fact that I can it set to turn on as my alarm clock. When I get to the kitchen the freshly ground coffee aroma is wonderful. Easy to use and makes great coffee. The only downside is that in my experience they don't last for more than 1 1/2 to 2 years.
