Great innovation from Capresso - one of only two grind n' brews with a conical burr grinder, thermal carafe, and smart engineering. 1200w heater, 50oz capacity.

Bottom Line: I feel my money could have been better spent on a good coffee grinder and separate coffee maker.

Bottom Line: The whole is greater than the sum of its parts - a grinder/brewer that makes a great cup of coffee and keeps it hot and tasty in a thermal carafe.

Bottom Line: Best combo Grinder-Maker I have ever owened. I was looking for grounds to buy a new coffee maker (or visa versa), I defininely made the right choice. Go get one!

Bottom Line: Disappointing, fustrating, infuriating. Not a machine to last years and years making great coffee.

Bottom Line: Excellent idea, but they need to make the design functional for those of us that like oily beans and stronger coffee.

Bottom Line: Overall, the machine produces a good and consistent cup of coffee, and I would recommend it to anyone who believes in getting what they pay for.
