Awesome coffee grinder!
This product grinds up coffee beans quickly and easily! Easy to fill, operate, and clean! Compact device and easy to store. The stainless steel design looks great and is a nice complement to the kitchen appliances. Would definitely recommend!

Nice looking appliance, disappointing performance
I just unpacked my Cuisinart coffee grinder as a supplement for an espresso machine of a different brand that wasn’t grinding properly. Well, the new grinder isn’t doing the job either. Even at the finest setting, the ground coffee comes out so coarse that instead of an espresso I’m getting a light-brown, horrible-tasting rinse. I don’t know if there is a solution to th...

Fantastic coffee grinder
Cup contains the perfect amount of coffee to brew one strong 12 cup carafe. Previously had to grind two batches to fill the filter.

High-quality with a removable cup. The best.
Powerful, good size grinder, but most of all with the removable cup that you can put in the dishwasher. This allows us to get one strong flavor out and put another one in. A rare and valuable asset.

Bad Quality
Horrible product. All of the sudden the blade just busts and I cannot use it anymore and they won't warranty it. Absolute garbage.

Not a good purchase
This does not grind the beans completely. Also need to use a spatula to get all of the grinds out

I’m grinding!
Great item, I purchased years ago and forgot it while on vacation. I was happy to find another one. I’ll be using it for my dried herbs and other items!

Excellent spice and herbe grinder
Purchased the Grind Central Coffee Grinder for the purpose of having a spice grinder. The machine works flawlessly with very fine grinding of the spices and herbs saving a ton of time and muscle work out . The mechanism is easy however, I would prefer a redesign in such a way that the ground up material doesn't spread and lodge in the nooks and crannies of the machine...

Good Coffee Grinder
I looked at a number of coffee grinders and this one is used by lots of people who have had them for years. It also can be used to grind other foods. I'm not fussy about my coffee beyond wanting it to be a consistent brew which is what I'm getting with this Cuisinart.

Poor build quality
Not a heavy duty grinder. Does a decent job but the jar and the lid does not last long. The jar by itself cost 80% of the grinder cost and that is not consumer centric. I am not buying this appliance a second time.

A simple but effective coffee grinder.
This was a replacement for the same model I had been using for years. I recently purchased a burr machine coffee grinder that turned my whole beans into a feathery dust that clung to the interior of the collection cup. After just one use I decided to donate that appliance and return to a grinder that had provided years of great coffee. It may not have multiple settings ...

Excellent Coffee grinder!
I bought this a month ago because I enjoy the taste of fresh ground coffee. The quality of this grinder is top-of-the-line! It has a large grinding space which I do like, and it grinds very fast saving a lot of time!
