 Great Coffee - Wonderful Grind & Brew November 27, 2009

This is my second Cuisinart Grind and Brew Coffeemaker in the last six years. This model is easy to clean, easy to set timers and you can check the water level from the outside of the unit. Parts go back into unit with ease. I am very happy with my purchase.
Best purchase I ever made June 2, 2010

I love this coffee maker! We grind our beans everyday as we like the freshness and extra flavor provided by grinding the beans right before brewing. The Grind & Brew makes it so much easier than using a small electric grinder - and no mess from stray grounds. Programming the coffee maker is simple. The features of 1-4 cups and grinder "off" are nice, too.
I was a bit concerned before purchasing about the time it might take to brew based on other Cuisinarts I had used previously, but it brews quickly. The coffee is very hot, much hotter than any other maker I've had before. As recommended in the instructions, I rinse the gold filter, grinder and filter basket after every use. I give them a thorough cleaning by placing in the top rack of the dishwasher every few days. If you like using whole beans and grinding fresh, this is definitely the coffee maker for you.
The only small criticism I have is that the maker beeps when it finishes brewing which my dog dislikes because it sounds just like her invisible fence collar. The maker also beeps if you turn on programming without all the parts or water being in place. I wish there was a way to turn off the beeping.
Fantastic Grind-and-Brew for the Price June 2, 2010

I am very pleasantly surprised by this machine. It replaced a 3 year-old Cuisinart grind-and-brew that just stopped working one morning. I intended to buy one of the expensive burr-grinder models from Capresso when I found this one on clearance at a warehouse club for fifty dollars. I figured for a quarter of the price of the Capresso it was worth a shot - if I didn't like it I could always take it back. I am so happy that I tried it!
Compared to my old Cuisinart this one is much, much quieter. Don't get me wrong, it's still loud, but it's more like the sound of a truck driving by while my old one sounded like a jet engine taking off. I attribute the quietness to the much thicker grinding chamber on this model. I think it holds in place better, reducing the vibration noise. Maybe a burr grinder model would be quieter; I don't know. The burr grinders I have used make noise at a lower frequency - so they sound different, but not necessarily quieter.
The coffee tastes great! The warming plate / glass carafe keeps the coffee hot enough for my taste. Might not be hot enough for some - I don't like my coffee scalding hot. The grounds in the basket get well saturated during the brewing process, so you don't have to use an excessive amount of coffee beans to get a strong pot.
The only drawback is the need to clean the machine after each use. I'm used to it, because my old Cuisinart was the same way, but I can see the attraction of a burr grinder model that you don't have to constantly wash. The cleaning process is easy. Everything pops out easily and cleans up quickly, but there are several parts that have to be washed. The instructions say you can run the parts through the dishwasher, but when I did that with my old Cuisinart the plastic eventually developed a white residue that took a while to scrub off - so I'm not going to use the dishwasher with this model.
Overall I am very happy with this purchase. It is inexpensive, relatively quiet, has good programming features, and makes a good pot of coffee. Having a 12-cup capacity is great!
Excellent coffee maker - so far! July 7, 2010

I had an earlier version of the 10-cup Cuisinart Grind and Brew that lasted more than 3 years. It made an awesome pot of coffee. I read online reviews of this and similar grind and brews from Cuisinart that made me nervous that I wouldn't get as good a product as I had last time. I looked closely at other brands and other versions of grind and brews and decided based on my own experience with the last one I bought, I'd give this model a shot. So far I have not had any problems that other people have mentioned. Yes, there are more parts to take apart, clean and put back together than a regular coffee maker. But the superior taste of the coffee you get from the grind and brew is absolutely worth the extra couple minutes of prep time it takes. Besides, I was used to it from the previous model I owned. So that is not an issue. I read other reviews about the hinge not closing or popping open during the brew cycle, or leaking. I have not had ANY of those issues. NOTE: One reviewer said to read ALL the instructions carefully and follow the directions and that's what I did. Most important thing to remember here is you have to be sure to keep the handle of the gold filter basket facing the front of the coffee maker. Last - I saw some reviewers complain of the noise as it grinds the coffee beans. This version of the grind and brew is noticeably more quiet than the last one I had, so no issue there either. All in all, I am VERY glad I purchased this product. I love it!

I bought this for my boyfriend and I a couple months ago. It's easy to program and easy to use. The grinder portion is loud, but for us it's just kind of like an alarm clock. An alarm clock that gives you coffee, so much better than just beeping at you. I haven't had any problems with the basket popping out like other people mentioned. Everything has worked seamless right out of the package and the carafe holds heat well.
I've found that filling that little teaspoon with a rounded amount of beans and putting in as many teaspoons as cups of water works well. It makes a good cup of coffee, not a stellar cup of coffee, but if you want to wake up to a good cup of coffee from fresh ground beans this is the product for you.
