Dishwasher-safe parts; permanent gold-tone filter and Brita water filter included
Editorial Review:
Wake up to freshly brewed coffee with this Braun KF590E Impressions Digital 10-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker. Not only does it provide a 24-hour timer for pre-set automatic brewing, but it also offers programmable automatic shutoff for setting the unit to turn off anywhere from 20 minutes to 4 hours after brewing. The coffeemaker's fast-brewing technology delivers hot, fully extracted and aromatic coffee. Removing the carafe pauses the brew cycle, which allows for pouring a cup midbrew. Its 54-ounce glass carafe provides a handy water-level indicator and a distinctive non-slip open-handle design for simple pouring. The unit's exclusive, filter basket-release button makes it simple to remove the basket and conveniently place it on the countertop for easy filling or cleaning. Other highlights include an LED digital clock and timer, a pilot light and preset brewing indicator, an integrated cord-storage compartment, and dishwasher-safe parts for quick cleanup. The unit comes with a permanent gold-tone filter and a Brita water filter, which prevents calcification, significantly reduces chlorine, and improves coffee flavor.

A TISKET FOR THE BASKET:
Makes good coffee, usual problems with glass carafe, but the big problem is the basket mechanism. It gets stuck and the "brew" stays in overtime. This happened virtually right out of the box. Braun advised us to order a replacement basket, pay the cost, fax them the bill for reimbursement. Seems like a NEEDLESS hassle for the consumer. When you order online, ya pays ur money and takes ur chances, eh?!
Beautiful machine that makes outstanding coffee:
You can't go wrong with this coffee maker. It's made in the EU with craftsmanship.
Daily coffee drinker, minneapolis, MN:
This is a good, affordable coffee maker. Braun has always been a good product, but this one is slightly off from my expectations. The coffee maker is loud during brewing and it occasionally drips when pouring a cup. For the price, the product is adequate.
Keep looking:
I've had a few Braun coffee makers in the past and they have always been great. Until this one. It's a lemon. It overflows constantly. I tried adjusting the grind and different filters, same result. The burner is too hot. It actually cooks the coffee to the point that it starts crusting on the bottom of the pot. Do Not buy this coffee maker. I'm already looking for a new one and this one is barely a month old.
