Great price,
November 28, 2007
"I have used it for about a month now and absolutely love it. Works perfect, no problems and well worth the price. Don't let the fact that it was sent back discourage you, I think some of these are just returns from customers who decided they didn't want it. It is a bit larger then some of the other coffee machines. Love, love, love it."

Good to the Last Drop!,

"We love this coffeemaker. It makes a great cup of coffee ~ especially with the gold filter that was included. I love the stainless carafe ~ it keeps coffee hot for at least 2 hours (if it lasts that long) ~ Is easy to use and comes apart easily to clean. Priced well ~ we saved about $60 from the retail price ~ I highly recommend it!"

Cuisinart Grind and Brew,
February 21, 2008
"My first experience with the Grind and Brew was being jolted awake at 5:00 AM while staying at relatives over Christmas, but after enjoying the coffee for a week, I decided I had to have one. The Overstock price was certainly right, and the specimen I received, while obviously not brand new, was in fine condition. The carafe actually did look new, and the other components were fine after a trip through the dishwasher. So far all systems are go, and the coffee is great. I've been grinding my beans for years, so the steps involved with this pot are no big deal. Because of a few comments about problems from other purchasers, I did spring for the extended warrenty, but so far, so good. Thanks, Overstock!"

Great value, solid performer,
February 11, 2008
"I was surprised to learn this machine must be disassembled after each use and cleaned. That said, it can be done quickly and left to air dry or placed in dishwasher before the next use. Little debris makes it to the main portion of the machine that cannot be cleaned in the dishwasher.
The reconditioned units are an impressive savings (roughly half of a SALE price at a local department store) and make the unit a great value if you don't mind a little mark here and there. My carafe had wear on the exterior."

Small frustrations but overall GOOD!!,
February 2, 2008
By Jedgica

"I bought this coffee maker (refurb'd) as a Christmas present for my parents. The first one I ordered did NOT work and we were both a little hesitant to order another refurb'd one but I re-read reviews and we decided to try again. Now, I do not live with my parents so I am just going by what they have told me (believe me, my mom can be painfully honest sometimes) and overall it is good. There were a few frustrations the first few times they used it but now that they have gotten used to things, they love it cause, as my mom said, "It makes a REALLLY delicious cup of coffee." When they got the replacement for the first one ordered, my dad forgot to securely close a door of some sort. After being awakened by what sounded like a jet engine firing up in their kitchen (the grinder IS LOUD) around 6am, he came out to find coffee ALL OVER the counter, down the cabinets and on the floor. BUT he figured out what had gone wrong and just made sure to securely close the door. Another time, something else happened and I offered to send this one back too and let them pick out something else. My mom said "NOOOO!!" SO, I had to assume they really do like it. Today, I happened to be over there visiting with the kids and overheard my Dad bragging about the fancy new coffee maker that I had given them for Christmas. He just raved about it to my Aunt and Uncle so, I am truly convinced that they like it.
The return of the first, non-functioning one was uneventful and timely. I got both refunds (for the coffee maker and the 2 year warranty) without incident. I would recommend both the coffee maker (I have not tried the coffe but I am not much of a coffee conniosseur so...) and overstock."
