Makes decent coffee but the design of the bean grinder is flawed and coffee grounds get stuck in the lid of the grinder. It also has to be cleaned and dried every time to prevent more grounds build up. I would not buy it again.
I love this coffeemaker. Coffee always tastes great and its so convenient prepping for waking up to freshly ground coffee aroma. However, the grinder runs way too long. When im up and making a pot of coffee i have to manually stop the grinder, press the preground button and then start the brewing cycle. Seems a little odd having to do all that!
The purchase of the grind and brew coffee maker is our third or fourth one in almost 30 years! Hopefully that speaks for itself, otherwise we wouldn’t replace our coffee maker, with the same exact machine, albeit a bit improved. This new one sits on our nightstand and it is actually a bit quieter than the older one and the clock is easier to read with the lights out.
I love this coffeemaker. It is very easy to clean compared to my older Cuisinart and the coffee is hotter. Just wash out the four removable parts each day and your coffee will taste fresh. The grinder is very loud but effective.
