Pros: Fresh ground coffee that stays hot Cons: cleanup is a chore
I have been using this coffeemaker for over two years now, and it is great. I have been a fan of fresh ground coffee for years, but had been suffering with a separate grinder and coffee pot. The built in grinder is a great feature. Combine that with ...

Pros: Looks nice on the counter
Hot coffee throughout the day
Coffee never burnt tasting Cons: Can't make strong enough cup at 10 cup capacity
Difficult to clean
We were so excited to buy this product for ourselves as treat with a gift card for the holidays. The first few days we had to adjust our water/bean ratio to make a full enough pot of coffee that had enough flavor. We found that 8 cups of water and a full ...

Pros: Fresh, yummy coffee. I like the way it looks and tastes. Cons: Cost. Cleaning required.
As a daily coffee lover, I needed a new one and this showed up in the house. At first it seemed so complicated to take all the pieces out. I finally get that figured out, and cleaning it proved just as difficult. I am used to dumping the filter and ...

Pros: Built-In Grinder, Thermal Crafe, Makes great coffee, Easy clean up, Cons: Load grinder, Hard to read water level, Stainless Steel Outside.
I have had this coffeemaker for about 6 months. I am glad I didn't read the reviews as I may not have purchased. But, I am very happy to say that I have not had a single issue and love this machine. It makes great coffee and the thermal crafe keeps ...

Pros: --looks nice Cons: --most poorly designed product ever experienced
--potentially dangerous
I was excited when I woke up this morning and received this nice stainless steel coffee maker for my birthday (day before Christmas). I was less enthused when making my first pot of coffee. First my wife tried to actually pour the coffee out of ...

Pros: Great cup of coffee, easy to use Cons: Having to give all of the components an extreme washing after each use
I first discovered this product while visiting a friend for four days and immediately bought one. I was recommended to several brands of beans so I had no trouble making the best coffee I ever tasted. Its greatest flaw, as stated by many reviewers ...

Pros: coffee quality is good
able to switch between ground and whole bean Cons: leaky carafe
hard to see cup markings
I received this coffee maker for a Christmas gift and started using it about three weeks ago. So far, I've had no qualm with the quality of the coffee that this unit produces. However, I do have a problem with some of the features of the unit. ...

Pros: Coffee maker with a grinder and a thermal carafe Cons: Carafe design, basket style filter, no grind control, water reservoir, cleaning
I'm so sad to to take it back, but it's going back. I didn't know you could screw up making a coffee maker, so alas, I didn't look at reviews before I purchased. I saw a good price plus a coupon, and bought.
Before I even made a pot of...

Pros: great looks,1-4 cup feature, easy to program Cons: loud,awkward carafe,hard to reach filter system,cumbersome grinding mechanism
I purchased this coffee maker a few months ago. It has a great look and a good concept. The one step grind and brew coffee maker seemed like a good idea. Based on that and the Cuisinart name, I felt that this was just what I wanted. I'm sorry to say ...

Pros: The timer seems to work. It certainly looks nice, overall. Cons: Horrible design, lousy function. Should never have made it to market.
( I wrote this review a year ago, but have been looking for another coffee maker for my new workout room in my new garage addition. I saw at Costco that this machine is being advertised as having been revised and improved or some such, but can find no ...

Pros: Makes good coffee Cons: VERY poor design!!!
I bought the grind and brew because I love coffee and wanted to make fresh ground after I have retired. I also wanted a nice appearing appliance that is easy to clean. I can make outstanding coffee with the grind and brew. With fresh water and fresh ...

Pros: Sounds good, looks good. Cons: Small grinder capacity. Steam enters grinder. Thermos poor design. Coffee not hot enough. Tomany parts.
I purchased this machine because of the built in grinder, water filtration, thermos, and timer, basically it has everything I wanted in a machine along with good looks. Unfortunately the coffee does not come out hot enough, a well brewed cup of "joe" ...

Pros: Sorry, I have none to offer. Ok, the coffee didn't taste too bad. Cons: Please see my writeup. Thanks!
Hi, I wrote a review of the G&B some time ago and it's time for the epilogue. To make a long, boring story less so, I returned the last one and am thrilled, in sort of an anti-climactic fashion, to be using my 14-year old Krups drip coffee maker, ...

Pros: Excellent coffee. Excellent warranty service. Cons: Hard to clean. Leaks badly. Can be very messy.
The coffee is excellent, but the design is so poor the coffee quality is not enough of an offset. There are three major problems: First, each time a pot is brewed steam gets into the grinding mechanism and makes what amounts to mud. This two-part ...

Pros: hot smooth coffee Cons: grinder too loud and messy to clean; coffee isn't making it into the pot!
I received this as a birthday gift from very excited elderly parents who recognized my love for fresh ground coffee and waking to a ready cup. I have to admit that the first time I set it for 4:30am and my alarm clock for 4:40, I didn't need the alarm ...
