Cuisinart Single-Serve Coffee Maker + Coffee Grinder with 8 oz., 10 oz., and 12 oz. Serving Size, Compatible with Single-Cup Pods, 48-Ounce Removable Reservoir, Stainless Steel, DGB-2

I don’t usually review items but I always read them and I hope my review will help someone make a decision. This coffee maker is easy to use and the coffee tastes great. You can either grind beans, use grounds or pods if you want. The trick to keeping the mess down after using the grinder. After the grounds automatically stop, tap the grinder a couple of times. Highly recommend this product!

Just passed the 3 year mark with this unit and still very pleased. Between my wife and I we make 3-5 cups per day, so it has held up well. The unit has worked flawlessly. The grind is perfect for my taste. As other have noted, the bean container can be a bit difficult to fill, but pour them in slowly and just count on a few beans falling out. Also, it tends to grind a bit longer than needed resulting in some ground coffee spillage. I just count off 18 seconds and stop grinding, and there is no spillage. Neither of these minor issues are a deal breaker by any means. The ability to swap in K Cups is a tremendous advantage. If it ever breaks, I'll certainly get another.

It's a good single cup coffee maker, with some flaws... To be transparent around my rating, I bought two of these, so the flaws were not enough to keep me from buying another one when it dialed, but it did fail after a year and some months of moderate to heavy use (5-6 cups a day) The Bean hopper is large enough for several good cups of coffee. If I had to be critical, I wish the container side raised up a touch over the motor hub, as there's competition for space as you fill beans. The motor takes up 50% of the space, so beans bounce off it like it's their last shot at freedom. The first device would always make a sound like it's got a pump running quietly. After a while, all the lights would blink and needed to be unplugged. Coffee cup size would at some point become inconsistent... Eventually, this would be the startup ritual... until something inside finally gave up and I work to water all over the counter and the coffee maker inoperable. After replacing it, it's back to the well functioning single cup I've enjoyed. We will see if this is a chronic issue or just a single worn out unit and update from there. Other than those flaws, it's a really good sing cup maker with an integrated grinder! Coffee temperature: Not quite boiling hot, you can get to drinking immediately Durability: Ish. First one lasted a bit over a year. Taste: Makes a good cup. Your beans will come through. Size: It's compact and easily desk worthy. Fits any countertop.

I do like this coffee maker. I've been using k-cups for so long that I forgot how much better freshly ground coffee tastes. the process is pretty simple, just place the reusable pod holder in the ground chute, let it grind & then switch it over to the brewer side. The next part has become a bit of an adventure however. The lid on the pod holder for fresh grounds is really cheap & DOES NOT provide a good seal. As a result, I have had several blow-outs already where coffee & grounds leak out of the top & go everywhere. It is not a deal breaker for me & I am already looking for a better pod holder with a better lid that holds the grounds and coffee inside the pod. It is annoying that Cuisinart provides such a cheap & poorly designed part however. The lid hinge is just a piece of folded plastic & is not going to hold up to repeated use, let alone provide a seal against leakage. Improve that one part & you have yourself a perfect little coffee maker if you still want the convenience of single cup brewing but are ready to move on from K-cup pods.

Wow! This was new in the box at discount price. Can’t wait to try it out. Will review more later! Love fresh ground coffee and burr grinders are the best for it! 06/13/26: Finally set it up. Works great but the grinder does not fill the basket completely to the top when grinding. When I take basket out to brew more grinds start falling to the plate beneath. That was my first brew. Second time after grinding I lightly tapped the grinder to get all the ground coffee into the filter container. That worked. It DOES make great FRESH coffee. The strength is determined by the size of the cup you choose to brew cause the ground coffee that goes into the filter basket is preset by the manufacturer!

We love our coffee maker. We haven’t used the grinder yet. Easy operation just hit the button to start immediately you can make a cup of coffee, hot coffee. We like that we can make three different size cups. I don’t even bother with a coffee pot anymore. When company comes everybody can make their own cup of coffee. I keep a few selections of coffee nearby.

Love this thing. I bought reusable aluminum filters and paper filters that fit inside. Fresh brewed coffee without waste. It’s the perfect coffee maker. The only thing I’d like to as would be an adjustable grinder but as is it’s pretty great. The blinking lights issue discussed in these reviews is the unit indicating that it needs to be decalcified. The instructions follow: DECALCIFICATION Decalcification refers to removing the calcium deposits that form over time on the metal parts of the coffeemaker. When all the lights flash in sequence upon turning the unit on, it is time to decalcify your coffeemaker. We recommend decalcifying every month for best performance. But the frequency really depends upon the hardness of your tap water and how often you use the coffeemaker. Directions: Step 1: Vinegar Rinse •  Fill water reservoir with 13 oz. of white vinegar and 26 oz. of water. •  Place a mug or other container on the drip tray. •  Open and close the brew head. •  Press and hold the Power and 8 oz. buttons for 2 seconds to start decalcification function. • Discard contents of mug into the sink. • Repeat until Add Water light comes on. •  When decalcification is complete, the Power and Grind buttons will illuminate. •  Discard any remaining diluted vinegar into sink. Step 2: Fresh Water Rinse •  Repeat Step 1 three times using fresh water in place of vinegar mixture. •  This will clean the brewer’s plumbing and remove any residual vinegar taste.

It still grinds coffee but it never lights up to brew any longer. What a waste of money, I thought Cuisinart was a good brand. While it worked, it did make a good cup of coffee but it grinds too many beans for one cup and it creates a mess at the coffee station; I’m constantly having to clean coffee grounds up on the counter and floor! I like the grinders that grind & brew without all the fuss of having to get a filter, stick it under the grinder, press the button to grind, remove the filter, close the lid, put it into the brew side close that lid, select a size and now you can brew. While you wait you can clean up the mess of the overflowing grinds and trying to snap the lid closed when it was over flowing. Actually takes longer to clean the mess than it does to brew. Nonetheless, it will not brew any longer so I can get rid of this messy machine! Never will I do this again! The other thing to note here is that the grinder while good, the item which holds the beans is a poor design. First the container (100% plastic) cannot be removed and also isn’t air tights to keep the beans fresh! So if you need to remove the beans, you have to unplug the machine, remove the water dispenser, and tip the machine upside down and shake it until all the beans fall out come out, if you forget to remove the lid, no worries it will fall off, the container for the beans is not air tight.. If you are the type that likes different beans this is NOT the machine for you because changing the beans is a PITA. If you and everyone in the house drink exactly the same thing everyday then I guess this will work for 7-10 months and then it will break. I see no advantages to this grinder from a separate grinder. A separate grinder will allow you to change the container, not be so messy, and you don’t have to keep the beans in there to go stale. It is not a quiet machine, but then no good coffee machine will be; if you want quiet get a percolator or instant! The grinder will wake any light to moderate sleeper and when it brews it builds up a pressure, heat, and spits and steams. If that didn’t wake you the wonderful aroma of fresh coffee will. The coffee is hotter than most single brews so it has that going for it, but as with most home machines everything is plastic and will cease to work much quicker than some professional machines. For $120 and not making it even a year, it is not a good value as I don’t think I even got a return on my investment being the machine cost me a $1 a day during its life. Add that to the cost of beans, waste, water, cream, sugar and labor to clean up the mess it made, it is actually cheaper to go get a cup of coffee at the coffee shop. If this were a $49 machine then maybe it would be break even!

O produto realmente entrega o que promete. Um café delicioso e sem fazer muito barulho. Vale muito a pena

Eu devolvi porque estava sem funcionar!

Love the combination of being able to grind my coffee beans or using a k cup. Easy to use , everything works perfect , nice and hot . Very happy with the purchase. Great price and quality as well

evita el desperdicio de café, funciona muy bien

Leí comentario positivos y negativos en los.negativos había gente que regreso la cafetera por temas de calidad, en lo personal llevo ya usando la cafetera unos meses y sin duda es una gran compra, funciona perfecto , y el molino así como las cápsulas excelentes , solo hace café americano pero muy buen sabor. Sin duda la recomiendo mucho en color blanco , la color negro creo que es la que ha presentado fallas, en mi caso una gran cafetera se ve increíble y a todo el que le preparo café recién molido le encanta su sabor
