This was a purchase to replace our previous Cuisanart burr grinder which finally gave out after approximately 8 years of almost daily use. We were satisfied with the grind quality, capacity and durability of this model so we thought we would play it safe by replacing with the same model. The only complaint we have with the grinder would be the noise level during use.

This coffee grinder works great! There is a lot of static, to be expected - I use a small blower to clean it up, no problem. It runs until the amount of grounds I select is completed, no holding down the power button. It is very attractive. So far my only complaint is that it is loud. However, it is not as loud as others I have used. Overall, I would definitely recommend and would 100% buy it again.

I purchased the Supreme Grind Automatic Burr Mill for two reasons: 1) I liked the large hopper so I didn't have to pour/measure beans every day and, 2) It's aesthetically pleasing. I am a fan of the Cuisinart brand and have most kitchen items (including cookware) from the brand so this was a natural choice. Sadly, we have been largely disappointed with it. It is quite possibly the messiest grinder I have ever owned. When you pull the container with the grinds out to pour into the filter, the shape does not allow for clean pouring - the grounds go everywhere. Our other grinders have circular housings for the grinds and they pour neatly into the filter while the filter is in the coffee maker. With the Cuisinart, we now have to hold the filter over the sink and dump the grinds in to avoid getting them on the inside of the coffee maker and all over the counter. I gave it two stars for the hopper and appearance. I don't really recommend.

The item is beautiful and seems like a terrific upgrade from my single serve Cuisinart grinder. Huge mistake on the upgrade. You load the upper basket with coffee beans, normal store bought beans. You'd think it would just keep loading and grinding…..NOPE…. It spins and spins and somehow no beans drop into the grinder mechanism. Loud as a jet engine, but no grounded coffee. You can shake it you can almost turn it upside down still no grinding brand new right out of the you think box…. So frustrating and give it all the Cuisinart products I have in my home. I'm shocked with the poor quality.

We owned one a long time ago and it functioned very differently. I'm not sure if the manufacturing process has just declined, but this grinder is a waste of money. I don't think it's a true burr, the grind is very uneven regardless of setting, it's incredibly loud, it makes a mess (lots of static), the auto stop function does not really work, it doesn't grind all the beans - so many things wrong. I am returning this.

This type of grinder is supposed to be superior to the type I had previously. I haven't noticed a difference in flavor, freshness, consistency, really any attribute. Additionally, it is messy, the beans get stuck, and the fine coffee particles glue to the chute. I'm going back to my old style.

If you're buying this to grind coarse coffee for a french press, do not do it! It gives nothing but powdery mixture that is nothing but mud in a cup. You can try to strain it through a strainer and catch some of the ground beans that are bigger but you waste so much money and coffee. It's horrible. On the highest city, it does not grind coarse enough for a French press worthless. And sooo much static.

I had high hopes but was sorely disappointed. First, the coffee receptacle has a ton of static so when you try to empty it, it just flys everywhere. Everywhere except where you want it to go. So there's a huge mess every time you open it. Second, the very second time I used the machine it wouldn't feed the beans, so I shove it a little to see if it would bring them down and it wouldn't, so I had to take the whole thing apart to clear it and clean it and then put it back together to get it to work. Needless to say, I boxed it back up and sent it back.

I was so excited to use this with my new espresso machine. This seemed like a reasonably priced great option. I got it home and set it to fine for espresso. Even after running the beans through 3 times the grounds were still very course and impossible to tamp down.

I guess I received a reject because it doesn't matter what grind set I use, it pulverizes the beans to powder, like the consistency of flour and it blows all over the counter and all over my hands when I pull out the container that's supposed to catch all of the grounds. There is NO anti static in the machine so that's the reason the powdered coffee disperses all over the room. This is crap
