Disappointing:
After owning a DGB-600 for over three years, and being very satisfied, I decided to trust the Cuisinart name and replace it with this machine.
What a mistake, it feels like a cheap $9.95 bargain store brand. The basket doesn't fit securely,the lid is very flimsey and doesn't line up right.
Sent it back for a refund, and repaired my trusty old 600. Amazon is great about returning junk that has been bought in good faith.
Good overall:
This automatic coffee maker works as advertised. The thermal carafe keeps coffee hot for several hours. The basket is easily removed for washing after the coffee's brewed. However, the display space that shows the time is very small. And it is quite difficult to discern whether the "auto" feature is on or off.
Spills over the top too often....:
I purchased the Cuisinart DTC-975 thermal coffeemaker at our local ACE hardware store at the end of July. Since then it has become clogged and spilled coffee all over the kitchen numerous times. This morning it even spilled over when we used the pre-ground drip coffee that has never been a problem before. I always clean the filter and lid carefully, and we still have problems with it.

everything it promised to be:
I needed a carafe that would not break. I have broken too many over the years.
It keeps the coffee hot for many hours. You have to be sure to put the lid on correctly. Bit once we mastered that we have been very pleased with this prodect.
