DisadvantagesOne of the main disadvantages of the KF 590, as mentioned by consumers, is that the coffee maker wouldn't last very long. Some reported their Braun KF590 conking out after a few years, while others reported that the machine would work fine at first, then it would have quality control issues after a while.Some of the problems that consumers have reported include overflowing coffee from a malfunctioning "drip stop" feature, weak coffee taste, and bad coffee taste when used with water that is hard. Another common complaint of consumers is that this new breed of Braun coffeemakers is nothing like the older Braun models. Braun has made a name and a good reputation for itself for great coffee makers, but many consumers are disappointed in the quality, construction, durability, and design of the newer models.
