We needed a coffee maker with a grinder and our son recommended this one because it’s what he has. It does everything we need it to do at a very fair price.

I was grinding coffee in an individual grinder, adding it to my 8 year old Cusinart 12 cup. The internal hoses deteriorated. Bye, Bye 12 cup. Then came the new Auto Grind 12 cup. First, the grinder sounds like a Jet plane for 25 seconds. That's ok, I grind in the evening so those sleeping in the morning aren't bothered. Be prepared to clean the grinder throughly. I do it every day. It's a lot more trouble that before, but the results are worth it. More quiet, faster brew and a better cup of coffee.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is a great coffee pot. We have never had one that grinds whole beans but was in the market for a new coffee pot and saw this one. I looked at several and read the reviews of each one and decided on the Cuisinart for several reasons. I really like Cuisinart products because they are durable, made well and perform well. This Coffeemaker is wonderful. We can really tell the difference using the grinder, with the coffee tasting fresher. I read the directions following the step-by-step instructions so it was easy to get used to. I highly recommend this product and would definitely buy again

Excellent! Burr grinder generates a course grind and strength adjustment produces an excellent cup of coffee.

Proper cleaning after each brew takes too long

It's a great coffee maker with the exception of the cleaning. Definitely takes a lot of time to properly clean all the parts after each brew. Can't use if you're rushing to work in the mornings.

Works as advertised. I like the freshly ground coffee this makes. The hopper only holds a maximum of one full pot but that’s no big deal. I’ve had other models that hold several full pots worth. I also use a stainless steel insulated carafe that I had with a previous cuisinart coffee maker and highly recommend vs. the glass carafe So you can keep the coffee warm without cooking it continuously such that it becomes very bitter.

Looks good on my counter without taking too much space. I love that water can be added from the front without having to move it to reach the side.
Changing from a k-cup brewer to this took some adjusting but I’m glad I did. There are multiple steps involved with the brewing and cleaning process that take a bit of practice.
I prefer cone filters and found them to work well by wetting the filter first. There is enough filter to have a slight overlap all around which prevents it from slipping and makes cleaning simple.
Since I use it multiple times per day, I rinse the pot and other parts with warm water after each use. After the last pot of the day I clean everything thoroughly with soap and water.
The only reason for 4 stars is the noise level of the grinder.
I would recommend this to a friend!
