Expensive Paper Weight

 

Received one of these for Christmas. Used it 3 times, and the motor quit. Called Cuisinart figuring they would warranty it and replace/repair it. Nope. Customer Service told me to "throw it away". Don't buy this unless you want to spend a lot of money...

Lots Of Stainless Steel ; Pretty To Look At

Motor Burned Up ; Unreliable

piece of garbage product/horrible company

 

After only two months of use this coffee grinder began acting crazy. As soon as we plug it in it runs when it's supposed to let you press the cap to make it pulse. I called the cuisinart "customer service" line and they will replace it but there is a...

coffee grinder review

 

It takes move coffee to come up with my usual coffee brew. My other grinder was a cheap black & decker. I\'ve found with the cuisinart I have to use more beans and switch it on & off. It is quieter, easy to use, and does get the job done.
