Product Description

Amazon.com Review
With Cuisinart's handsome, compact coffee grinder, it's easy to always have fresh coffee made to exact specifications. It has a 2-1/2-ounce capacity--enough for 12 cups of coffee. The grinder's clean lines and teardrop shape make it easy to hold, and it runs with the push of a button. To use, simply measure coffee beans into the bowl, replace the lid, and hold down the button until the coffee is ground to the desired consistency. Both the bowl and blades are made of stainless steel. Unplug the grinder when it's not in use--the cord can be stored in the base of the unit. --Jennifer Harris

 Nice grind- No capacity July 6, 2008
----tmu---- (N. Idaho)
The positive: This grinder produces a uniform grind.
The negatives: I could only add half the capacity of beans.
The first time I filled the grinder and was grinding for the 30 seconds the manual instructs you to, something plastic inside got very hot and started smoking. So, I started doing two grinds to get the amount of coffee I like.
A week ago,a friend of mine was making coffee, and not knowing the grinder's capacity limitation, filled it full with beans and burned out the motor.
Anyways, if you like strong coffee don't buy this grinder. If you like lighter strength coffee this is a good grinder because of its consistent grinding of the beans.

Product works as expected but if you like to make 10 or more cups of coffee at once you will find the grinding chamber too small on this unit. I also don't like the lid which has a plastic inner ring that the coffee beans like to get stuck in. These beans make it tough to close the top so you can engage the start switch and won't get ground up if you do manage to start it. It is also difficult to dump the ground product into the coffee maker as the lid won't hold all the coffee so you have to unplug the unit and tip the whole machine over to empty it. On the plus side unit has plenty of power and has a reasonable quality feel to it.
get the 'other' one.... June 5, 2008

this is a public service. You are wondering if you should get the Cusinart or the Braun coffee bean grinder? Trust me, I bought both and the 'other' one is the correct choice. This one has a short cord and a cap that is smaller than the bean reservoir. The 'other' one doesn't have these problems.
You are probably thinking what happened to the 'other' grinder. Well, I decided, after 2 years, to grind a blend of spices for the BBQ. I did this about 3 or 4 times, and the grinder stopped grinding. I wonder why they called it a 'coffee bean grinder'? Duhhh
Sincerely, JCG, tampa
 Love it... April 10, 2008

Had it for years and still works great. No, it doesn't grind massive quantities at a time. So what? It's efficient, powerful and easy to store due to it's small size.
Good for the low cost. January 5, 2008
