The grinder works very well with a consistent finish. The only draw back is the cord stow does not work well. I can’t get all of the cord into the stow.Overall a good machine.

Nice product, compact and does a good job grinding coffee. My biggest issue is when I grind beans they fly out of cup and all over the inside of the plastic cover.. very messy and I have to clean the grinds out of the total interior. Very disappointing for such a good company that I have bought many other products.

Love it – I wish I didn’t have to stick a rubber band in there to keep the grinds from going everywhere.

This little grinder is powerful, efficient, and easy to clean. Right on par with the many Cuisinart products I own or have owend.

It’s a nice coffee grinder. Comes with accurate instructions on how to get the grind you want. a bit messy though; grounds spill out of the cup as it is working.

I would give it a 3.5. I love the look/design for something that sits on my counter top. It’s efficient and not terribly loud. HOWEVER, it makes a giant mess all in the area around the bowl. I have to open it over the sink to prevent grounds from spilling all over my counter. The cheap one I had previously, worked better and made no mess.

is very easy to use. i wanted something bigger but i only use it once a month so it will be ok.

look nice. grind well. the downside is that grounds get out of the cup and onto the ledge of the machine, so when you take the lid off, the grounds go all over the counter. It is too messy. I think this could have been made not to do that. It becomes cumbersome to have to clean up after it each morning.

Pretty good home grinder. It does get warm if grinding for a period of time.

Ok but not the best…design fault lid fits so that coffee grains fall out around rim, problem is lid is not snug on cup holding coffee…fix it by putting electrical tape around coffee holder….they should have caught this….for the price it isn’t the best….

Great little grinder. Cuisinart products have always beaten the many other brands I have owned.

This little machine works very well and took very little time to grind down a bag of coffee beans.

I never had a coffee grinder but this one is great!!

I like the grinder, as it processes my beans to my specifications. My only negative is that it doesn’t work exactly like the last one I had (for over 15 years). When it grinds the beans, it spreads the grounds beyond the internal cup. Thus, there is more work to clean the device. Otherwise, it’s just what I wanted.

Have not used it myself yet but my friend has one which she’s owned a very long time and it still works well. I also like the sleekness of it.

Simple and easy to use. Stores nicely. We use the grinder to grind flax seed. Grinding flax seed to the correct consistency is very easy.
Keaton Pagac (verified owner) –
The grinder is very quiet compared to others I’ve had. I don’t like that the grounds stick to the cover, but that is a minor issue. I recommend this model.

Often times the grinder cup won’t come unlodged from the main base. You almost feel like you are going to break it to get apart.
