I just bought my third Cuisinart Grind & Brew Coffeemaker, so obviously I like them very much. This latest model, however, has one changed feature that I do not like at all. For some reason, they have attached the cover to the grind basket. The user's manual says it can be removed, but I have been unable to accomplish that and would worry about re-attaching it. With the cover attached, it is very awkward to wash; I wonder who thought that was a good idea. Still makes great coffee (IMHO), but I grumble at it every night when I have to wash the grind basket with the top attached.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good coffee but the grinder broke after the first month, so I’m having to use a counter top grinder now. Haven’t contacted anyone about the warranty yet.

Coffee maker and grinder that makes great coffee.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned two of these coffee makers. One lasted about 10 years. The current one I have is about 5 years old and the coffee bean grinder does not work. We still use it to brew the coffee but I miss my fresh ground beans. Looking to replace the whole coffee machine.

I have always loved the grind and brew makers. With this one, I feel the coffee is hotter which is great!. But boy is it LOUD. Much louder than previous models but I can live with it for the great tasting coffee!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had my Cuisinart for several years. Makes great coffee. Visitors live it. I do as well.

The carafe is poorly designed. The small inside opening makes cleaning difficult, and makes pouring difficult and inefficient.

We appreciate your feedback on the Automatic Grind & Brew 10-Cup Coffeemaker and are sorry to hear the carafe design has not met your expectations. For improved cleaning and pouring, we recommend rinsing immediately after use and using a narrow bottle brush to better reach the interior, as well as pouring slowly at a slight angle to help control flow. Your comments about the opening and usability are valuable and will be shared with our product team. Thank you, as your feedback helps us improve future models.
