I love this coffee maker. Had the DG-650 for 11 years, but it finally started leaking and replaced it with the closest model they make now at days. The clearly fixed the craft spout, which now pours like you would expect it to. They replaced the chrome sides with black plastic, which is why this is a lower model number, 450, I assume. It's still the best grinder/coffee maker combo on the market and if this dies in a decade, I'm hoping they are still making something as good as this or better.
