Combining long-lasting brushed stainless steel with an elegant design, this 10-cup coffee maker features a double-wall vacuum-insulated thermal carafe and a flavor-sealing brew-through lid that keeps freshly brewed coffee hot for hours. The carafe's pour-and-lock system, as well as its open, soft touch, non-slip handle, allows for simple pouring with the push of a button. With the coffee maker's pause-and-serve feature, a cup can be poured mid-brew, and for convenience and safety, the unit is designed with an automatic shut-off feature. Its exclusive, filter basket-release button makes it simple to remove the basket and conveniently place it on the countertop for easy filling or cleaning. The coffee maker comes with a permanent gold-tone filter and an exclusive Brita water filter, which helps prevent scale build-up and reduces chlorine and other impurities for an improved coffee flavor. The unit is designed for household use only and features dishwasher-safe removable parts for easy clean up. The coffee maker measures 13 by 7-1/2 by 14-1/8 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty. --Catie Unger

 Met our expectations September 6, 2008
H. John Schell
After a lot of research, we thought the KF600 suited our needs the best. We did not want/need the bells & whistles (grinders, timers, etc.) on other models.
We did want a unit with a thermal carafe, one that was easy to fill w/ a readable gauge and one that didn't take too much space on the countertop.
It is true that the carafe is a bit small and may be more difficult to clean, but it works fine - - - better if pre-heated with hot water.
For the true coffee afficianado, the question of whether it heats the water to the optimum brewing temperature is probably valid. However, based on information from a well known cooking publication, the only unit to accomplish this costs three times as much. It is also very large and looks like a laboratory experiment.
The Braun is not a perfect machine, but, given the choices out there, it's pretty good and we are satisfied with the purchase.
 The absolute BEST August 28, 2008
Ms. Ruth D. Clark
This coffeemaker is the best electric I have encountered in my 35 years of coffee drinking.
1. Carafe does not spill or drip when loading or pouring.
2. Carafe keeps coffee hot, wide top makes cleaning easy - the machine pauses if you want a cup before it is done and shuts off automatically when it is done.
3. The basket is easy to load, unload and clean, the water reservoir is easy to use, the on/off switch is beautifully functional - German engineering at its best.
4. I have had one for over a year of steady use and it is still great.
5. I am buying them now as gifts.
Excellent Product August 28, 2008

I almost didn't buy this because of some poor reviews. They were wrong! This Coffee Maker works great! If you want bells and whistles, buy something else. If you want something that makes great coffee and keeps it warm, this is an excellent product.
Extremely User Friendly August 24, 2008

I'm not a coffee drinker so I can't comment on that aspect of the coffeemaker, but I've not had any complaints. I purchased the Braun for the office. We were dissatisfied with our Krups mainly because the water gauge malfunctioned all the time so I did my due diligence and found this Braun to have the highest ratings in our price range. It seems to me, since I do most of the coffee making, to be the most user friendly machine we've ever had. My boss's only comment is that for him it is not as easy to pour from as the Krups carafe.
 Terrible customer service at P&G/Braun August 8, 2008

I was very pleased with this coffeemaker for the first two months. Unfortunately, the carafe fell on the floor shortly thereafter and the handle broke off. I called P&G at 1-800-BRAUN-11 and originally was told that a replacement carafe would be shipped to me free of charge. Several weeks later, I received a letter stating that I'd need to order a carafe on my own since it was not, in fact, covered under warranty. I did so through a third party in March. It is now August and the product is still on back order. I canceled the order and called P&G again to find out if there is another way to get a carafe short of buying an entirely new coffeemaker. I was told that Braun is no longer distributing in the U.S. but I could order a carafe through a "foreign company." She also directed me to E-bay! I will never buy another Braun product because of their poor customer service.
