Super coffee maker
The DGB-800 is working perfectly, I set the grind to the #6 setting and the coffee is perfect ! Very easy to operate and clean up. Everyone likes our coffee, so we tell the about the coffee maker and the coffee we get online. we get coffee online at a very good savings' we buy 10lb each time we order coffee . I gets here in about 3-4 days.

Excellent! Very well engineered!
This is the 4th Cuisinart Burr Grind & Brew that we have purchased. The first one, almost 20 years ago, was Excellent, so about 5 years later we replace it with a new one. I was better than the first! The third one was better than the second! And this one is way better than the third! I do not see how they could make this any better, but my guess is that in 5 years it will be and we will buy another one!

Great coffee machine
Very good product. Great tasting coffee. Easy to use; except one finicky behavior. If you grind the coffee the night before (which I do so the loud grinding won’t wake the wife up in the morning) then start the coffee in the morning with no grind, it typically won’t start. Simple fix is to hit the button on the side to open the filter holder, then close it, it will then start.

Good coffee maker with lid issues
Purchased as a replacement for similar Cuisinart coffee maker with stainless carafe. Replaced due to a problem with the lid/pour spout. Leaked badly and got tired of fooling with it. This coffee maker is identical except for this one has the glass carafe and is 12 cups rather than 10. The good is it grinds and brews nicely. The bad is this lid will not snap in place, thus you have to hold it with your thumb so it does not fall off while pouring. Unlikely to purchase another Cuisinart. Quality Control is not to acceptable standards and I do not want to go through more aggravation like I did with the last problem. Have not had long enough to attest to longevity.

Better basket design, not the best brew
This was a warranty replacement for the previous generation model, the DGB-1400BCPC, that was defective. This model has design improvements with the way the ground coffee is delivered from the grinder to the basket that is much better than the DGB-1400BCPC design. The downside is that the maximum number of cups of you can choose to grind is 12, which is the size of the pot. This does not give you enough flexibility if you're trying to make 12 cups of coffee stronger than the grind control allows. Selecting the strongest grind does not brew our coffee as strong as the previous model, so we have to choose to grind 12 cups of coffee at the strongest grind selection, but only brew about 10 1/4 cups. Still, at this combination of choices, the coffee isn't as good as the DGB-1400BCPC. We have tried other combinations of choices and amount of cups to brew, but this is the closest.

Great coffee, just a little messy
This coffee maker makes the best coffee. The burr grinder is superior to the blade style grinders. This is my second time ordering this model. The first has been working for about 5 years and still does, I just needed a new coffee maker for my second home. There are a couple of flaws with the product. If you forget a filter or try to use a paper and the wire filter, the grounds will get into the pour stop valve and make the coffee overflow and make a mess. There is also rarely a time when the maker doesn’t make a little bit of a mess with grounds getting out. Also, after a while (every year or so), you may notice fewer grounds and weaker coffee. The grinder tends to deposit some grounds into the bean feeder area above the grinder that slows the flow of the beans. There is a guard above this that makes it difficult to access. You can, however, reach the blockage with a skewer with a kink in it. You can also see the area using your phone camera once you find just the right position. Regardless of these issues, I would order one of these again. Based on messiness, I would deduct a star or two, however, the flavor is just so good, that it deserves the full five stars.
