I love Cuisinart appliances, however this particular coffee maker/grinder had a small part break off during the first week of use. The appliance still works, but leaks. Email was sent for replacement and will let me know when available.

Having gone through two much more expensive grinder/percolators from another manufacturer, I was pleasantly surprised that this Cuisinart Grind and Brew Coffee Maker outperformed both. What I like about my new machine is that all the parts are accessible for simple removal and washing. This wasn't true of my previous models, which each clogged up and stopped working. My only complaint is that the Cuisinart grinder is a bit loud. As long as I wake up without a hangover, I can simply go into another room during grinding. It only took a few brews to get the perfect ratio of mixed beans (pure Hawaiian Kona and Trader Joe's Low Acid) to water. The transparent water level is helpful, too. I'm not sure if the bean hopper is big enough to actually serve 10 cups, but my daily routine typically tops out at 5-6 cups. Overall,. I'm one happy customer.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is our 3rd version of this product (the last one was purchased in 2016) and we love it! We really like the improvements - the hinged filter basket, the lighted clock dial and the added foot pads. The machine is quiet, fast and easy to use. Our machine is still so new that we have not yet used the grinder but I am confident it will work just as expected, if not better.

Grinding and brewing requires a thorough cleaning of grinder bowl and the clear lid after each use. The coffee filter basket compartment and lid need to cleaned when brewing a full pot as well.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We're sorry to hear the cleaning process has been more involved than expected. To help simplify maintenance, we recommend brushing out any remaining grounds from the grinder bowl after each use and periodically rinsing removable components to prevent buildup that can affect grinding and brewing performance. Thank you for sharing your feedback—comments like yours help us improve future models and enhance the overall user experience.

This is the 4th one I’ve had in around 15 years. Best alarm clock ever. Wake up to fresh ground coffee.
They don’t last forever but no coffee maker does. I’ve noticed subtle improvements over the years.
My new one seems to make hotter coffee.

Easy to clean, at first I would use the measuring scoop, but now I know how many beans to just more in.

This is a replacement coffee maker of the exact model. We had only had it for four years when it started leaking. That’s one year after the warranty expired. We had the same model before that one that broke two weeks after the warranty expired. The only reasons we get this coffee maker is that we like to grind our beans and have a thermal carafe. I am disappointed that they don’t last!

We're sorry to hear about your experience and understand your disappointment with the longevity of your coffee makers. Our products are backed by a limited 3-year warranty, and we recognize how frustrating it can be when an issue occurs outside of that coverage period, especially when you've chosen the same model more than once because you value the built-in grinder and thermal carafe features. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience—your feedback provides valuable insight that helps us evaluate product durability and improve future models.
