Lawrence :: August 28, 2010
your service (sales, delivery, etc.) was great. i like the grinder but it seems a little temperamental...but i'm learning. actually i do think it is more of a human problem than a mechanical one. beans i used too use are too oily and the grinder setting needs experimenting to get it right. but i'm pleased with the purchase and the quality of the grind i am getting.
Margaret :: August 27, 2010
I commend you on the espresso machine I bought and the excellent service I received from your sales staff. When I need coffee related supplies again, you will have a return customer. Thank you!
Page :: August 20, 2010
Very pleased with my purchase. This is the second pot we've ordered and I think it makes the best coffee ever.
Linda :: August 20, 2010
My husband and I were introduced to your coffeemaker by our son. He had read about it in Cooks Illustrated and decided to give it a try. He was wowed by it! My husband and I have visited him in CA several times over the past 2 yrs and have noticed how great the coffee is time and time again. Your coffeemaker consistantly makes a great cup of coffee and the pot stays HOT without becoming burnt or overcooked. Seeing is believing! I am glad my son took the chance on it and thrilled that I decided to purchase my own coffeemaker. We love it! The ordering process was simple and the coffeemaker was in our home less than a week later! Thank you.
Donna :: August 17, 2010
Got my Hario Skerton ridiculously fast. Love the product and love the service. You guys rock!
Charles :: August 13, 2010
Love the new coffee profile guide. It made selecting my most recent order so much easier. Also, I was glad to see that you were still carrying the Haiti Ranquitte. Much to my surprise, my husband loved it!
Ilene :: August 9, 2010
Site was easy to use and our order arrived quickly. Will return to Clive Coffee for future shopping.
Cindi :: August 4, 2010
My wife and I have two Technivorm MoccaMaster coffee makers. We brew a lot of coffee and can say that the MoccaMaster brews the best drip coffee we have ever tasted. This is a case of "you get what you pay for." They are worth every penny.
Don and Linda :: July 26, 2010
The coffee grinder sure put a smile on it's new owner's face. He is taking it camping. Had to get up the first morning and make fresh coffee with his french press. Said it was the best coffee he ever had. Thanks for the speedy service.
Dona :: July 20, 2010
The quality of your coffee and customer service remains top notch!
Ignatius :: July 12, 2010
Excellent prompt and courteous service
Theodora :: July 7, 2010
Service was excellent, products arrived promptly, packaged very well, in excellent condition. A great company with which to do business, will recommend enthusiastically! A pleasure to find this in today's world!
Bill :: July 1, 2010
You can believe all the great comments about both Clive Coffee & the Dutch-built Technivorm Moccamaster coffee maker. I happen to live in Portland & after several hours of researching home coffee makers on the web, I picked one up the other day at their facility. It truly does make a vastly superior cup of coffee, and it is very well made. The sample coffees that they gave me are exceptional as well. I hesitated about this purchase because I thought it wouldn't be worth the money, but I am now convinced it certainly is -- to me -- and now I am glad that I have this wonderful machine. Oh, when I called to say a second flat lid for the thermal carafe was missing from the box, the one that lets the carafe fit back under the filter holder (the other one for table use doesn t), they promptly mailed one out to me. You simply can t go wrong in dealing with this company or their products!
Dan :: July 1, 2010
You guys are great. I hope things are well for you guys. I just got my first shipment and needless to say am loving it. Keep up the good work.
Richard :: July 1, 2010
Wow. Best coffee maker I have ever owned. I am hooked.
Mark :: June 18, 2010
One is lucky to find a local business with great customer service. It is rare to find great customer service on the internet. This was my first purchase with Clive Coffee, and every aspect of my order in every way exceeded my expectations. It is nice to find a website and a company that acts like they actually care about their customers! Thank you, Clive Coffee. You are awesome.
John :: June 15, 2010
Got my new Rancilio Rocky grinder the other day and thanks! Have Technivorm coffee maker and am fooling around to get right grind number, pretty good fun! Thanks for 2 very good products!
Mark :: June 5, 2010
Just wanted to let you know how much my parents love the Rancillio Silvia machine. My father (87 years old) has had a large Pavoni from the early 1960s from Italy. He was having problems getting parts for the machine but refused to stop making coffee on it even though it was difficult for him at his age. (It has the old pull lever.)
He had bought my sister and I each a Rancillio Lucy 20 years ago but did not purchase one for himself. We have enjoyed ours.
Finally I decided to purchase one for him and my mom even though they continued to refuse. It was delivered a week ago and they have been using it everyday. It makes great coffee like our Lucy. They are very pleased with it.
Your delivery was on time and they appreciated the free cup and pound of coffee -great coffee by the way!
Thanks so much for your help and I do hope to get by and meet you all when I am in the Portland area. Your service is wonderful!
Joanna :: June 6, 2010Hello, PERFECT! The order was shipped very fast, which I totally appreciated as I was in desperate need of my grinder. It was packed efficiently but safely, also appreciated. And I love the product.
Monti :: June 3, 2010
I had apparently ordered something from your website that had been discontinued and received an email to that effect after ordering. When I called in to ask about it, the gentleman I spoke with explained the situation and very graciously agreed to have them shipped directly from Frieling. I think very highly of your pleaseant and knowledgeable people in customer service. I couldn't have been better taken care of anywhere. The porcelain cones are top quality. Thank you.
Jim :: June 1, 2010
The products we ordered arrived safe and sound. The technivorm coffee maker and the coffee grinder are proving to be great purchases. We are sampling the different coffees you sent, and appreciate the chance to see which roast best fits our taste. I REALLY appreciated the informational insert you provided with the coffee maker. It helped a lot--especially regarding the best grind to start with on the grinder. Also, we were pleased to receive the items so quickly. The other supplier we were looking at gave an arrival date of 4-6 weeks.
Jeanine :: May 30, 2010
Just wanted to say thanks for the sample of coffee you shared last week during the Google's presentation. Excellent coffee, very smooth and natural.
Alvaro :: May 28, 2010
Excellent work, efficient and well-done! We LOVE thiscoffeemaker AND the different coffees you included.
Richard :: May 17, 2010
The large Beehouse pourover cone and the 22oz. pot arrived in perfect shape, and with a #4 filter it makes perfect coffee!
Peter :: May 14, 2010
I bought an Andreja Premium Expresso Machine from the folks at Clive Coffee. The staff were very professional and the service was second to none. Clive Coffee rocks.
David :: May 13, 2010
I love your coffee beans. After trying the complimentary sample coffee that you sent with my order of a Baratza Virtuoso coffee grinder & Freiland French Press, I decided to buy from your company instead of Peet's in California.
Beans are delicious. I would recommend it to all my guests who love my coffee.
Virginia :: May 12, 2010
The service was excellent. The coffee was delightful - excellently freshly roasted. What a treat to get coffee that is so fresh and delicious! I enjoy Amanda's blog also.
We've been spreading the word about your Haiti project. It is one of the best ideas I've ever heard of, especially from the viewpoint of a gardener, botanist and plant community ecologist. Bravo! I intend to make another purchase shortly.
The Haitian coffee was divine, and so was your Papua New Guinea.
Diane :: May 7, 2010
Service was great as always. So is the coffee.
Ilene :: April 28, 2010
I just received my first Clive Coffee order and wow. You guys really have something going. I placed the order YESTERDAY and bam, it was there on my doorstep. Also, I love the little extra touch you guys do of putting those adorable clips on the coffee bags.
Krisanna :: April 28, 2010
The technivorm coffee maker is outstanding!!!! didn't know coffee could be vthat good!!! also, the coffee grinder is the best.............not to mention your great coffee!!! can't enough good things about your products and service!!! great help.......... Many Thanks.
Tom :: April 27, 2010
I purchased a Technivorm CDT Moccamaster Coffee Maker and a gold filter. I am completely satisfied with my purchase and furthermore am completely satisfied with the service I have received from Clive Coffee. The two pounds of sample coffees were accidentally left out of my shipment. I called the 800 number and it was taken care of within a minute. I look forward to purchasing coffee and additional equipment from Clive Coffee in the future.
Darren :: April 27, 2010
I received the Andreja this afternoon in prefect working order. The espresso was fantastic! I'll try a cappuccino tomorrow.
David :: April 26, 2010
I'm sure you're tired of hearing this, but I just got my coffee maker and...wow! This is the best home-brewed coffee I've ever had in my life, and I was using over-the-counter pre-ground Starbucks!
Laura :: April 23, 2010
Quick delivery. Good coffee. Thanks for supporting the EcoCafe in Ranquitte by roasting their coffee!
Brent :: April 21, 2010
I enjoyed your service. My purchase got here sooner than expected. Email correspondence was timely and informative. My Moccamaster arrived in perfect working order. Supplying samples of your fine coffee is a good idea. Not only does it show me how delicious coffee can be, but it adds to the satisfaction of my purchase. Excellent job.
G :: April 19, 2010
My coffee machine arrived with a defect which I discovered with my second use. I telephoned your service number and they immediately sent me a repalcement machine and a return label to return the defective machine. They new one is perfect. Good prompt service. Thanks
Gene :: April 18, 2010
The service at Clive is amazing. You guys always manage to get the coffee out in record speed and I really value the quality of the packaging. The bags are sealed up TIGHT, which is something that coffee folks appreciate. Every single bag of coffee that I've purchased has been incredible. You folks really know how to roast some beans, they're incredible. I recommend Clive to everyone I know here in Richmond, VA.
Chad :: April 12, 2010
The service was great! I was so surprised at how quickly I received my order. I ordered on line on saturday and received my order on Tuesday. I couldn't be happier with my purchase.
Nelson :: April 11, 2010
Just to let you know I received my coffee today, Saturday 4/10/10!!! That was unbelievably quick and I just wanted to say thank you so much and I really think your coffee is something special!!
Ellen :: April 10, 2010
Your service was wonderful. You were helpful, polite, informative and expedient.
Gary :: April 7, 2010
This was my second order with Clive Coffee and I'm still very happy with this company. The shipment came extremely fast. In fact, I received the email that it was shipped the same day it showed up at my door. Funny! And, I'm still really enjoying this coffee. So glad you offer Brazilian coffees. Thanks! Keep up the good work.
Alisyn :: April 05, 2010
My moccamaster coffee brewer came when promised, in perfect condition and was exactly what I had ordered. So far my wife and I have been delighted with our purchase and the coffee made has enhanced the start of our day.
Allan :: April 05, 2010
Thanks for the great customer service. The coffee maker I bought broke, and when I called, you guys had a warranty replacement shipped out the same day. You've got a loyal customer now.
Peter :: March 24, 2010
I just wanted you to know I received my new coffee maker very quickly. I am pleased with the coffee maker and was very pleasantly surprised with the samples of coffee you included. I am excited to try your coffee and make a future order. Thank you so very much for your easy, quick, and efficient service. I will look forward to ordering from your company in the future.
Lori :: March 24, 2010
Love your decaf beans - very mild and favorful. Thanks.
Virginia :: March 24, 2010
Wow!!! Incredible service. I ordered a grinder from you and figured I didn't need it too soon so got the free shipping. But I received it the next day! Amazing! Thanks so much.
Tami :: March 11, 2010
I bought two bags before Xmas from you: A Columbian and a Kenya AA. My opinion? Well, an English teacher told me more than 50 years ago never, Never to use the original word to describe that word. For example we wouldn't say the color green looks green, would we?
But, with that in mind let me just say about your coffee----Ah!! Clive Coffee tastes just like coffee. Terrific aroma and a smooth, acid-free taste that will have you saying, "A coffee that tastes just the way I want to always remember coffee tasting." I'll be calling to come down and pick up some more soon!
Don :: January 11, 2010
Mahalo for your help! I love the coffee maker and it has made lots of coffee since Christmas morning.
David :: December 29, 2009
I normally unsubscribe from any corporate mailings but you guys are doing something right. I actually enjoy your marketing materials. Happy holidays to you and I hope Clive Coffee has a great year in 2010. You've certainly been helping my husband and me be more productive at work. Your coffee is....potent! :-)
Natalie :: December 21, 2009
Just received my coffee for the holidays. Opening the box was like aromatherapy!
Regina :: December 15, 2009
Thanks so much for your help; all 26 Technivorm coffee makers, grinders, filter and coffee are wrapped up pretty and ready to go....I’ll send you a picture.
Thank you also for the coffee – we can’t wait to try it!
Have a good holiday!
christine (Dreamworks Studio) :: December 1, 2009
Awesome. great products. I did a ton of research and I love my moccamaster. I was afraid my husband would think it was over the top but he LOVES the bubbles. you would think he was four. the coffee is hot, stays hot and the pot is easy to use. the filter is the best i've found. thanks for making the best available and sending it so quickly.
Susan :: November 28, 2009
Thanks. Your customer service is incredible. I wish more companies followed your model.
Jason :: November 25, 2009
My order took almost a week to arrive and somehow this made its arrival that much more enjoyable - packaged perfectly. Glad I found your company!
Bernadette :: November 18, 2009
Thanks for making these great coffee machines available. Pleasure - true pleasure - doing business with you.
G. :: November 11, 2009
Fast shipping. Great communication. Would buy from again.
G. :: November 10, 2009
Prompt service, reasonable price.
Christopher :: November 8, 2009
Excellent. Good customer service.
Anthony :: November 4, 2009
Excellent service & products, knowledgeable and eager to advise - most helpful!
Thomas :: November 3, 2009
Have communicated well. Part of my order is backordered, they were clear about that & when it would arrive.
Daren :: November 2, 2009
I received my filter holder today and it works great. Thank you for what I consider to be exceptional customer service. Very best regards
Thomas :: October 30, 2009
Product was carefully packaged and promptly shipped with extra directions for product operation.
John :: October 17, 2009
continued great service from your store. i'll make sure i continue to buy from you for my next purchase.
Pat :: October 17, 2009
You should definitely consider Clive Coffee for your next purchase. They have excellent products, responsive customer service, and very tasty coffee. I purchased a Le Lit espresso machine, 57mm tamper, and Rocky grinder from Clive. The first two came without a hitch. When they sold out of the grinder, the Clive rep went through a troublesome procedure of getting it drop-shipped, and it was at my house in a couple of days. And I was continually updated on the grinder's status. It was really nice to have a company go out of their way to satisfy the customer. I am ecstatic about my setup and highly recommend Clive Coffee. You won't be disappointed.
Zach :: October 14, 2009
excellent service, excellent coffee!
Bonnie :: October 14, 2009
I am really digging your single origin espresso. It is so smooth and chocolaty it makes a great double and also a very smooth americano and also goes great with milk. It is one of my new favorites. I have not tried the Yirg yet, but in the morning I will. I like that you don't roast so dark and let the lighter notes of the coffee come through instead of the really oily beans that I have grown to dislike. Keep up the great work. Thank you!
Chad :: October 12, 2009
We felt that Clive Coffee was aware of our order and attentive to it even though we did not require any special attention. We now make great coffee, too.
Raoul :: October 9, 2009
We ordered the technivorm coffee maker for our fortieth wedding anniversary because of an article we read in Cook's Illustrated magazine about how to make the best coffee. After searching the web, we decided to order from Clive coffee. Ordering was easy, the shipment was delivered quickly and included with the coffee maker were paper filters and four different whole bean coffees. Good experience from beginning to end. Thanks
Carol :: October 8, 2009
Everything was smooth and easy.
Douglas :: October 8, 2009
The seller delivered the ordered coffee maker in a short amount of time, exactly as promised.
David :: October 7, 2009
Excellent information on the site. Making a purchase decision is easy here. Good prices, fast shipping.
Richard :: October 7, 2009
Terrific service!
Edward :: October 6, 2009
Just as good as it gets.
Edward :: October 5, 2009
Wow! Was not expecting next day delivery. Thank you. Had some today and it is great. We are hooked. Be sending bags as holiday gifts.
Doug :: October 5, 2009
You guys rock. One day shipping to Beaverton - yoo-hoo! I was the first person to write a review on your website (including pictures) I wrote another one on Amazon.com (which doesn't seem to be showing up right now) and gave a "shout out" to clivecoffee.com on the review. Keep up the great customer service!
Julie :: October 5, 2009
Thank you for the timely and detailed explanation. I really appreciate that level of customer service. I have my own business and it blows me away with some of the horrible email responses I get from web based companies. I will take your advice and purchase the machine and the grinder as they sound like a good match.
Sean :: October 5, 2009
Just wanted to tell you that the LeLit has arrived. In a word, Brilliant! Not only is it as pictured and described, but it was an easy set up too. With one quick read of the instructions I was able to pull a perfect cup with loads of crema in my first attempt! This is exactly what I've been looking for for years. How wonderful to receive it during my birthday weekend.
Thank you for the coffee beans as well. There might be traces of my previous blend still in the Mazzer Luigi hopper but I can already taste the chocolatey/caramel goodness of your coffee. Even though you've only made like $25 bucks off the sale of the machine, you've got yourself a new customer.
Brian :: Sep 28, 2009
Our experience with CLIVE COFFEE has been a TEN on a scale of zero to TEN:
1. Very prompt service. Delivery was within 24 hours. Unit was very well packed.
2. Easy to assemble and operate.
3. Free sample coffee packages (4 of them) is the same as a $44 discount!! (17% off list).
4. Free shipping and no sales tax also a definite plus.
5. Pre-heating/warming the thermos is most easily accomplished in our house by running Water through the machine without filter/coffee. This results in HOT water to warm The thermos prior to brewing. Our house hot water is set at 145 deg F to prevent scalding Of children in the shower; plus, early in the morning water is wasted running until the water gets from the hot water heater to the kitchen sink.
6. The unit exceeds our expectations; and, far exceeds the performance of any coffee makers We have had in the past.
7. We are very, very happy……for once having something that DOES perform as advertised.
Orriss Family :: Sep 24, 2009
Wow!!! You guys are awesome...thank you so much!!!!
Heather :: Sep 21, 2009
Just wanted to say thanks for the great service!! You are the best! The Technivorm coffee maker is great too. Thanks again for superior customer value management.
Deborah :: Sep 21, 2009
You are the best! The Technivorm coffee maker is great too. Thanks again for superior customer value management.
Ernest :: Sep 21, 2009
Just wanted to let you know the replacement caraffe arrived yesterday....WHAT a difference! I just thought I had wasted my $$$ on the Technivorm machine w/o your heads up that something was amiss (from your prior email) Keep up the great service!
David :: Sep 21, 2009
Had my first and second cup of delicious coffee! Thank you!
Walt :: Sep 12, 2009
Ok, I will be the first person to admit that I am not a coffee nut...but I love this coffee maker! I had some pre grinded coffee and this coffee maker works wonders. I really look forward to my first cup of coffee. Before, I never finished all the coffee in my cup but now I do. I realize that I spent quite a bit of $$$ but it is worth it. I bought this more expenseive machine, because I figure that I will save $. I have gone through several rather expensive coffee machines that quit or leaked. I can't wait until I try the beans that you sent with the coffee machine. You may have just made a coffee snob out of me.
Charlotte :: Sep 8, 2009
We are nearly finished the sample coffees you sent and next we will have the Nicaragua coffee I ordered. The coffee has been great!! We have really enjoyed the flavour and freshness. I ordered Espresso coffee today and look forward to trying it. Thanks for suggesting the sample package. I hope you continue to have great success!!
George :: Sep 8, 2009
We received the new Carafe yesterday and tried it out this morning. The difference in the temperature of the coffee after 20 minutes in the carafe was significant! Thank you for the wonderful service. I recommend you guys to all of my coffee obsessed friends.
Janet :: Sep 8, 2009
The moccamaster is everything I expected. And the Clive coffee is great. Thanks for the great products and service.
Joanne :: Sep 8, 2009
thanks for the filter holder and fast service, you have made my day and restored my hopefulness'
Bruce :: Sep 4, 2009
You're the best...nothing ever exceeds good customer service and relationships so thanks!
Jim :: Sep 2, 2009
The Technivorm arrived yesterday afternoon. I made a pot last night of our "regular" coffee and it was considerably more flavorful. My second pot that I made this morning is just as good as first, so I think I have measurements down. Now it is time to try your coffee, I am looking forward to an every more delicious cup. Thanks for your help.
Wayne :: August 9, 2009
The coffee maker is the best. It is hard to believe that there is such a difference in taste. I have not been using cheap coffee makers all these years – all in the $100 - $150 range, but I just didn’t know about Technivorn. Some friends of mine have one and they made me a believer. It looks like a science experiment on my counter and I think really elevates my IQ, in the minds of others!
Karen :: August 3, 2009
Thanks for shipping the Technivorm and the bags of coffee! We were very pleased with the machine's performance this morning. PDX businesses are the best!
Chris :: July 30, 2009
Thanks for all the help. I'm going to be honest... I love you right now. I'm very excited to try this all out!
Thanks again.
Jeff :: July 23, 2009
I am so excited...like most customers that you've probably seen purchasing the Technivorm, I did extensive research and read lots of reviews. Once I decided on the Technivorm, it was tough deciding on the square or round version (height/carafe vs aesthetic issue...) Just some feedback...I ordered from your company because you have a very good FAQ section...the reviews are orderly/selectable and well, like other companies you were willing to give me a couple of bags of coffee-along with free shipping. What made Clive Coffee stand out for me was the thoughtful, honest, and full disclosure opinion that I found at coffeegeek.com
Anyways, thanks for everything...just thought I'd let you know that I appreciate your customer service (talked with someone-I think his name was Mark?) and your personal touch!
Tina :: July 21, 2009
Thanks very much for the press Mark, the wrapping was great, and my Mother loves it! I appreciate your attentive service.
David :: July 14, 2009
Reading the reviews was VERY HELPFUL to me as I decided whether and what to purchase. In particular: the recommendation to use a setting of 30 on the grinder made a big difference, and we bought the CDT model because of feedback that with the CDT model the pot fits back under the filter with the lid on it. It's a small thing but really seems to matter. We even shimmed up the main unit a fraction of an inch and took off the drip plate so we can still be half asleep and it's easy to replace the pot with lid on. But, we're not half asleep for long! Love it!.
Karen :: July 9, 2009
Phenomenal customer service and superb coffee. I'll be back.
Erick :: July 8, 2009
Just a note to THANK YOU so much for the recent shipment! I had the good fortune to call your business last Thursday for some general questions on the Technivorm line of coffee makers. The gentleman I talked to was really friendly, helpful and didn’t project a “sales” mode – I decided during the call to go ahead with a purchase of a Moccamaster. Placing the order online on Thursday, the product arrived on Saturday, with Friday as a generally regarded holiday! The shipment was perfectly packed, and everything worked out very well.
As a result of the great telephone interaction and the totally surprising shipment, I really do plan on continuing to order coffee through your business – it really was great service, and I did really appreciate the low-key approach to purchasing a rather expensive coffee unit. (But, on the other hand, IT’S A GREAT COFFEE MAKER!)
Thanks again for the great service, and what is turning out to be a great product –
Michael :: July 7, 2009
I received my coffee maker today and love it so far. Thanks for the fast service.
Stan :: July 6, 2009
In these times that we live in, its refreshing to deal with someone who cares and goes the extra mile to ensure that their customers are treated with respect. It means much to me.
Thanks for all...
Derek :: June 30, 2009
Extremely responsive, courteous, and prompt. Would definitely consider ordering equipment from Clive Coffee again, and would most certainly order their coffee beans! Very good roast quality.
Jonathan :: June 39, 2009
First and foremost, let me just say that this is an example of THE BEST customer service I have EVER witnessed. Thank you so much! :) Awesome coffee.
Jill :: June 24, 2009
Just wanted to let you know the coffee arrived Saturday. I've tried the Sumatra and it is exceptional!? Is the Sumatra from a special lot?? It has been a long time since I have had a Sumatra that well balanced and smooth. I haven't been drinking it lately because it hasn't been up to par... this one is great!
Look forward to trying the others also...
Barbara :: June 22, 2009
Le'lit showed up yesterday evening. Packing was great, no damage. Got to check it out this morning and all of the features seem to work. It sure looks like it's built good. Plenty of hot water and plenty of steam. You know, I have been drinking espresso and cappuccino for going on 40 years. I had my little steam driven Krups a few years back and a $69 steam pump Delonghi with a pressurized portafilter that didn't create 9 bar so it never created an espresso just strong coffee.
I am certainly a novice but have read a lot and understand the fundamentals. I also believe what I've read that it's all about the grind. I will hold any reservations about my grinder for now. It is a $100 flat burr grinder that seems to perform well. If and when the time comes I'll keep you in mind for my grinder
Well it's been a couple of hours and guess what ... I can make espresso. Check it out...crema and frothy milk. who would have guessed...I can make espresso.
Such a long way to go and a lot to learn but it is obvious to me that this machine is exactly what I expected.
Thanks for all of the help and the quick shipping. I'll keep you posted as time goes on. Thanks again.
Chuck :: June 20, 2009
They delivered in very prompt manner. They have followed-up with emails. Great store.
Ronald :: June 20, 2009
I placed my order at 3:17pm PDT 6/18/09. The UPS truck left my driveway about 15 minutes ago, make it 3:09pm PDT 6/19/09. From Portland OR through Seattle and Burlington to Mount Vernon WA in under 24 hours!!!
The only way to get it here faster would be by Taxi, and that definitely would not be "free shipping".
I haven't even opened the box yet, but I had to thank you for the speed in support of my coffee fantasy
Shane :: June 19, 2009
You are amazing. I filled out the survey with some of my minor concerns and within a day or so you send me an update with solutions to all my problems. I am so impressed. Keep up the good work!
Mary :: June 13, 2009
What differentiates Clive Coffee from even the most respected names in coffee is their ability to combine superior product with superior assistance. Clive will take however long to truly understand your palate, then will carefully match your desires with the right coffee bean, the right equipment at the right price. The mammoth corporations provide a decent product but nothing compared to the complexity and freshness of Clive. If you want to enjoy your coffee like you would a fine wine or fine chocolate, then Clive is the only way to go
Jim :: June 8, 2009
Thanks so much!!! Great coffeemaker and even better customer service. It's nice when a company over delivers instead of over promising. Be back for a Nissan carafe soon.
Jeff :: June 5, 2009
excellent customer service and superb product
Brian :: June 5, 2009
The order processed and arrived very quickly! We love the technivorm coffee maker-expensive but worth it! I would buy from this seller again,but I hope our coffee maker lives a good long life....

It is rare that I find myself writing this type of email because it is human nature that we are more willing to take the time to complain than we are to offer praise. But it is also rare that I encounter the level of customer service that I received from you.
I ordered a Technivorm KBT-741 coffee maker last Wednesday. Even though I ordered it after the cut-off time of 3PM, I received a notice that evening that my order had shipped. Probably owing somewhat to my proximity from your store, I got the coffee maker the next day. I believe it really shows class that you included packages of your coffee and some filters, so that I would be ready to go right out of the box.
I think that you have excellent products and I am VERY impressed with your operations.
THANK YOU!!

Dealing with Mark of Clive Coffee has been a breath of fresh air. No pushing for the nth degree to maximize the purchase. Instead, well grounded advice is rendered along with a focus on customer satisfaction, which is indeed a rare commodity these days.
Mark has provided consistently effective suggestions that have assisted in my drive to improve technique and find the proper equipment and coffee to fit my needs for both regular coffee and espresso. It isn't a one-size-fits-all operation and to know that there is a source out there who is willing and able to offer sound advice and back it up in both product and service that goes beyond expectations, is indeed noteworthy.

your Brazil is really great stuff. I'm still working on some of the other blends too which have been very good too, but so far the Brazil is nice, flavorful and a provides a nice even balance of everything.
Lance :: May 27, 2009
No problems with Clive Coffee. The coffee maker arrived when they said it would. Order was processed quickly.

Hi....just a little note....my husband purchased the Moccamaster for me a few months back. Boy, I am I lovin' it....At first, I felt he might have gone overboard, as I was used to using a simple french press. But what a difference!!! Also, I was a die-hard Illy Med. Roast Expresso whole bean junkie, but I tried the Guat. organic bean that came with the Moccamaster - enjoyable! I also have ordered the Peru Organic (love it) and am trying the Clive Expresso....keep up the good work
Margo :: May 22, 2009
product was well packaged and delivered promptly.
Colleen :: May 22, 2009
Wow! Love the coffee maker. Expectations all satisfied. Thanks!
Julie :: May 18, 2009
It arrived this afternoon and the coffee you guys included was a nice surprise. The coffee filters were also terrific. The service is great !!!! something unheard of in this country for a while.
Tom :: May 18, 2009
We received our coffee maker and used it today! So far so good- HOT coffee with no bitterness. Thanks for the comped coffee beans- look forward to trying them.
Betsy :: May 18, 2009
You guys kick so much ass it is insane. I totally appreciate how fresh the coffee is......the first time I ground it up and filled the press I got an overflow situation because of all of the carbon dioxide that released due to the extreme freshness of the beans!!!!
Bruce :: May 14, 2009
I also am appreciating the best coffee in my life and will highly recommend Clive to anyone who wants to buy one based on your wonderful service.
John :: April 30, 2009
Your coffee is the only coffee that I have has that is as good as my home-roasted, and that is high praise.
Tom :: April 23, 2009
--- It's all about serving the customer (me) and you guys are on top of your game. Sending me the part I need to remedy my drip problem with the filter basket without any hassle is a "wow" experience. You don't get those all the time.
Thank you.
Bruce :: April 7, 2009
I want to take a moment to tell you how much we like our Technivorm coffee maker. We haven't had such good coffee around our house in a long time!
Susan :: April 7, 2009
My experience with Clive coffee was most positive. The product that I ordered was overdue in delivery but the people at Clive kept us in the loop as to delivery date as best they could.
Patricia :: April 6, 2009
Got the replacement lid (and the bag of coffee!!)
P.S. The coffee maker originally shipped with a bag of your coffee and we have really enjoyed it.
Thanks much.
Carl :: April 6, 2009
Thank you for sending a small bag of Sumatra Mandheling Retro coffee. It smells wonderful, and we will have some tonight.
Yes, The Technivorm Moccamaster coffee brewers is "wonderful," and worth every penny. I couldn't believe "how good" the first cup and every cup since of coffee has been. So, this is what "damn good coffee" taste like, a quote from the movie "Twin Peaks."
Thanks
Stephen :: April 6, 2009
I received prompt and courteous service from Clive Coffee. As described, the 1-cup Frieling coffee press IS substantial as a Sherman tank. This heavy duty French press is beautiful, easy to use, and makes wonderful coffee! I also loved the free sample of fresh-roasted coffee beans!

Shipment of the coffee maker I ordered was delayed from the Dutch manufacturer. Clive kept me informed throughout the process, which was excellent customer service. I am delighted with my new coffee maker...
Frank :: April 3, 2009
Just a quick note to say thanks. I have never worked with any company that kept it's customers as informed of the order progress as your company has done. I realized that the issues surrounding my order were out of your control and that your company got my order filled as soon as possible. I appreciate that kind of service!
Tim :: April 3, 2009
Received everything, kids love the coffee maker. My daughter said the coffee taste so good she loves to drink it black now.
Thanks for your help.
Mike :: March 31, 2009
I just wanted to let you know we received our Technivorm on Wednesday and couldn't be more thrilled - best cup of coffee we've had!
Jenn :: March 30, 2009
We appreciate your good service; the frequent communications regarding getting the Technivorm Mochamaster. The process is easy. The coffee is great.
LoRetta :: March 30, 2009
I just wanted to let you know that it was worth the wait. Although the CDT arrived Tuesday, it's been a very hectic week. I made my first pot today and thoroughly enjoyed it. I look forward to many more transforming coffee experiences.
Ilene :: March 30, 2009
It isn't often I have the pleasure of dealing with people such as you and the others at Clive Coffee. I have been anxiously waiting for my Technivorm coffee maker and am delighted with it now that I have it - It was worth the wait. I especially appreciate that you kept me posted on its progress. It certainly made the wait easier. Anyway, you did a terrific job handling a situation that might otherwise have been a problem.
Thanks much,
John :: March 28, 2009

Yoko :: March 28, 2009
I have to say the coffee is amazing- Technivorm does live up to its hype in my view. Thanks much.
Phil :: March 28, 2009
I sent a message to Clive Coffee but I wanted to thank you personally for keeping me informed about the delay and ETA of the coffee maker. It arrived, as promised, on the 25th and we have been enjoying great coffee ever since. Thanks so much for your excellent communication and the 1lb of delicious coffee included. I can't wait to try it. A happy customer.
Stephanie :: March 28, 2009
I got the coffee pot today and was very happy with the awesome look and of course the taste of the first cup was awesome! I know i will be happy with this and already and gearing up to buy one for a best friend of mine! LOVE IT! Thanks so much!

karin ehlers :: Jan 22, 2009
We ordered a coffee maker from Clive Coffee this past December. Due to factors beyond the control of the Clive Coffee Team - extreme weather conditions and problems with the importer and customs - the delivery of the coffee maker was delayed. br>
However, the customer support we received from Mark at Clive Coffee was outstanding! He kept us informed of the status of the order and offered product and shipping alternatives. Ulately, the machine did arrive and we are very happy with the performance of our new machine. br>
We highly recommend Clive Coffee as your choice for coffee and brewing equipment. br>

I appreciated being informed about the slight delay in sending out my order. The wait was not long and I was informed when it was shipped. I still got my order when I expected it.
gloria j sommer :: Dec 24, 2008
very good.
thomas a hanlon :: Dec 10, 2008
Coffee maker was delayed in shipping from overseas. Clive Coffee was very upfront about delays, providing great updates on when to expect arrival, and offering discounted next-day shipping to make our deadline. Very pleased with the prompt responses and on-time performance.
Heike Larson :: Dec 7, 2008
Very good customer support.
Charles E. Stanford :: Dec 7, 2008
The Technivorm coffee maker makes excellent, very hot coffee, and Mark's customer service was terrific in helping me decide which model to order. I will buy from Clive Coffee again, no question.
Paula J. Eisenberg :: Dec 7, 2008
The Technivorm works as advertised, the coffee is great and we're very satisfied with it. But if you want to ship me another one, feel free. As long as it's free.
Just kidding.
Wayne Enslow :: Nov 18, 2008
Outstanding experience. My espresso machine was well packaged (important for such a heavy item) and it arrived in a timely manner. The coffee is also very good.
JEFFREY R JOERS :: Nov 11, 2008
