GBCarafe Lid Design Disappointment but Excellent Customer Service. Disappointed About: The design of my new Breville Brewer PID coffee pot carafe lid. The design is very hard to clean properly and broke...which was a catastrophe in my kitchen because it caused hot coffee to pour all over my counter and through my lower white cabinets. Very difficult to clean up the mess. And since the lid can't even be purchased separately...if it happens again, I will have to spend $100 to replace both the carafe/lid combo. I hope Breville fixes the issue and offers a better option for lid replacement (one that can be cleaned). Very happy about: The excellent customer service for my issue. It took a few days to get a response but when I did, Michelle Robinson, Customer Service was wonderful. She quickly replaced my carafe at no cost and sent it out immediately. She followed up and made sure that I received tracking for the replacement part. Overall, my coffee pot is wonderful and attractive...when its working properly. I know design issues sometimes happen with products and I truly hope it get fixed because the coffee maker was pricey and I was hoping it was going to be a long-term buy. It makes excellent coffee and I'd hate to have to replace it so quickly.

GBThe coffee is still not hot The coffee is still not hot. We have descaled it twice using the recommended materials and nothing has changed with the coffee temperature. We are disappointed since this was an expensive coffee maker and we expected a superior cup of coffee. The customer service representative was friendly and well spoken but her solution didn't solve the problem. I would like to hear from Breville again. There was an email from them but they wanted a response within 3 days. I didn't see the email until today and now they say they link expired. I would like to resolve this problem.

CAConfusing interaction with customer support I purchased a replacement part for my milk frother from Amazon. It was flawed, and did not fit. Amazon online instructions for returning this item with a manufacturing defect was to directly contact Breville. I emailed Breville with all the required information including a photo of the part. Instead I had to provide the serial number of my milk frother to then be told the frother was no longer under warranty but would send me a new part as a courtesy. I tried to convey that I purchased the part, it was not manufactured correctly and therefore did not fit. It had nothing to do with my frother or the age of my frother and I was not looking for warranty coverage. I was also informed that I should have dealt with Amazon for the problem. I provided screen shots of Amazon’s online information and direction to contact Breville when I attempted a return through Amazon. I thought it would be pretty simple to say here is a Breville part I bought, it’s defective, please replace it. I did receive the courtesy replacement part, but was made to feel like I was trying to get a free part for some other reason. It was a confusing interaction.

GBExcellent customer service I had some issues with the grind control drip coffee maker. It was not making a good cup of coffee. Breville customer service representative reached out to me via email and I was able to resolve the issue. I have to say that while it might not be the best coffee maker on the market, the customer service is very good and it's nice to see a company stand behind their product with support.
