Customer Reviews

Design flaws--I returned it
I got this to grind just once, and the coffee I made was very very good. Then I could never get it to grind again--I just couldn't get the top to align properly so that I could set the grind setting.

Also cleaning was not quick and easy. The grinds fell all through the machine, requiring it to be taken apart and each part wiped, to prevent the grounds from going rancid and affecting taste down the road.

Easy cleaning
With a burr grinder, cleaning is often a mess! This one is easy to dis-assemble ... then just use a vacuum to clean out any residue. The infinite grind setting feature is also a plus. Also, use the manufacture's hint of measuring the whole beans and then grind all of them ... Great product!!!

Don't hesitate because of negative reviews...
...this is a great product! We (my husband and I) have had ours for five months and love everything about it. It's convenient to use and makes GREAT coffee. We fill the "hopper" and when we want to make coffee (which we do every morning) we turn the dial to how many cups we want to brew and it grinds the perfect amount of beans. NO MEASURING, just one step: turn the dial. Then we pull out the cup that holds the ground coffee, dump the grinds in the coffee filter, push "on" on the coffee maker, and put the cup back in the Capresso grinder. It's that easy for tremendously flavorful coffee. (note on coffee: we've been buying dark roasts because they have the most flavor. However, the darker the beans the less caffeine, so we make the coffee "strong.") Anyway, I've read reviews on here that elaborate on how difficult it is to clean etc. and I just don't get it. I don't want to offend anyone but those reviews sound compulsive to me. If you slide the cup in, which is easy, then the grounds go into the cup. The cup is very easy to clean. What else do you need to clean? I suppose if you want to use this only occasionally like once a month or less you may not want to brew the grounds that have sat in the burr grinder all that time and it could be an issue. If that's the case I would recommend going with a small grinder that better suits your rate of consumption. I have never needed to empty the grinds from within the machine so I can't tell you if it is difficult to get them out or easy (like tipping a toaster upside down and shaking it.) One suggestion would be (for example if you go on vacation) to grind enough beans to push the old ones out, and throw the old ones away.

If you're just a regular person who likes great coffee on a regular basis, or you want to give a grinder to someone who drinks coffee on a regular basis as a gift, buy this with confidence.
