It is a very good coffeemaker, and the pore over feature is great.
.Anything to keep from Starbucks
Jura makes some nice machines also.
Unbelievable...and i'm sure people will run out and buy it.

Is this by any chance an advancement of the DBG 1000?

They wouldn't make it if there wasn't a market. We seem to think the people here know what is the best for everyone.
If it is an Espresso coffee maker/machine. There is a little more engineering and materials involved that a simple by comparison drip machine.
I just bought a Hamilton Beach Flex Brew. It makes K cups or a carafe 12 cup it's programmable and also uses hot water.LOL.

Even being a coffee snob of sorts I'm still amazed at seeing all the different coffee machines that are "out there". Every company in the coffee appliance business is trying to make a better one. I personally have an espresso machine that takes around thirty minutes to make one 4oz (dbl shot) and then clean up afterward.
I enjoy the pleasure of kicking back in mid afternoon with a cup of espresso and just gazing out the window while taking small sips of a delightful brew.
To each his own!
That's why they make a $5 wine and a $200 wine, if you can't tell the difference, enjoy the $5 wine.
Last thing I want is auto off coffee pot. Hate Mr Coffee for doing this. Will stick with my 100 dollar Bunn.

Amazon has a coffee maker on sale for $247. Wow! What a deal! It makes water hot and pours it over coffee grounds - and for only $247. I have a Mr. Coffee that turns itself on at 5:30 AM and turns itself off when the coffee is made, keeping it hot in an insulated carafe. That cost $40.
To judge from one reviewer on Amazon, what's special about this machine is:
"Overall, the Technivorm indeed seems to be the best auto drip coffee maker that you can buy in the USA - if you ever taste the difference between a typical coffeemaker and one that consistently holds the critical just-beneath-boiling temperature, you may not be able to go back. Assuming good beans, controlled/sufficiently high temperature is the key to great coffee... it's not rocket science but only Technivorm and Bonavita do it, as far as I can tell from reading a lot of third party reviews."
If you think $247 is expensive, what do you think of this?

I think I have that same model of Mr. Coffee, good pot, have one here and one in camper.
I have an old percolator pot I bought from at a yard sale for 5 dollars in 2011 and has made me perfect coffee every day since.

We have a couple of perc pots too, for emergencies, like Con Ed drops the load! NEED COFFEE!
There is a difference, and even steaming the milk makes it sweeter.
You can roast your own beans, and take it to a different taste, add a little AMARETTO ,
Nothing like a Rosette with latte art..
They have coffee blogs, to read also,

Yep, that ABSOLUTELY completes the brew that you describe so well!
