When the aroma of freshly brewed coffee--from freshly ground beans--wafts into your bedroom in the morning, you won't need your alarm clock. Preset this coffeemaker for your desired wake-up time, add coffee beans to the grinder, and in the morning the beans are ground to a medium grind and hot coffee awaits in the glass 12-cup carafe. You can also program the machine to start brewing at the end of a dinner party to avoid having to get up from the table, or to have hot coffee waiting after a brisk winter walk. When making fewer than five cups of coffee, use the 1-to-4-cups setting to improve extraction and heat; coffeemakers without this setting often lack the time to heat up properly, and coffee comes out cooler. A disposable charcoal filter removes chlorine and odors from tap water, improving coffee flavor, and should be changed every few months. Other features include the capacity to use preground coffee instead of beans; 30-second Brew Pause, which allows a cup be poured before brewing is complete; and an audible tone to indicate the pot is ready. The grinder removes for easy cleaning, and all removable parts can be washed safely in the upper rack of a dishwasher. The Cuisinart Grind and Brew measures 15 by 8 by 7-1/2 inches and carries a 90-day warranty. --Ann Bieri Editor's note: This is a reconditioned small appliance. Reconditioned generally means that the appliance has been returned to the manufacturer, who returns the appliance to like-new condition. Some appliances may contain cosmetic blemishes.

Great coffee maker/grinder August 21, 2008
Purchased this coffeemaker after old Cuisinart coffeemaker finally gave out. The areas that I disliked on our old Cuisinart were greatly improved on this version. The grinder is much easier to remove and clean than the previous version; which was my primary complaint on the old one. Some other reviews have claimed that cleaning this coffeemaker was messy- unless you have ridiculous expectations as to ease of cleaning you will not find this a problem. It doesn't clean itself, which would be nice. Also if it would fill itself with coffee and water- that would be great. But assuming one has the ambition to actually pop the parts out, run them under water and quickly wipe down with a paper towel- you shouldn't feel too physically drained.
 Well made! August 19, 2008
Owned my first for the past ten years until it just gave out. Purchased this re-manufactured and feel confident that it will also last ten years.
Thanks Cuisinart!
Awesome value!! August 16, 2008
The only reason I'm giving it 4 out of 5 stars is for the cleanup of the grinder after each pot. Yes, it is a pain because the condensation from the hot water for brewing gathers in the grinder chamber and outlet requiring it to be cleaned before making a fresh pot, But besides that it really does make a great coffee brewer at a steal of a price! Yes, I would buy it again.
 So So August 14, 2008
The lack of an external water level indicator means that you have to lean over and look down into the tank. Placing this under the cabinets doesn't work well. The steam from the heating water condenses in the grinder so you have to rinse it out and dry it every time you use it. A bit of a pain.
Good coffee but a lot of work August 13, 2008
I bought this unit, when our old unit died (different brand). The coffee this unit makes is good. The problem is you have clean it after ever brew. With other brands you have to do this, but this unit has a grinder, grinder top, filter basket, filter top, pot top and carafe, which all must be cleaned after every use. A lot of work. I would not buy another one.
