I wanted a new coffee maker for my office and I wanted quality and capacity. This Cuisinart  Grind and Brew hit all of my requirements right on the head.  It’s incredibly well made, beautifully designed and so far works like a charm. The coffee brewed tastes like coffee shop quality without having to pay those prices. I have always enjoyed very good luck and results with Cuisinart products and believe that trend will continue with this coffee maker. It is a bit loud but I knew that would be the case since it grinds the beans. I really don’t- think you can go wrong with this machine, it’s a winner !
