Cuisinart put form too far ahead of function with this one. By giving this grinder the rectangular appearance of their line of coffee makers, Cuisinart designers created lots of tiny corners into which powdered grinds migrate and stick due to “static electric” charges. You can’t clean it without long cotton swabs or a chopstick with a tissue wrapped around it. The good news: This grinder is much quieter than the Braun it replaces in our kitchen.
