Product Description
Amazon.com Review
A smart-looking little unit, this Cuisinart coffee grinder lets you make the freshest possible coffee by grinding whole beans right before you brew. The grinder’s stainless-steel blade assembly is durable and effective, and the hopper holds 2-1/2 ounces of beans. Operation is a simple one-touch step, and fresh grounds are easy to empty into a filter or brew basket. Cleanup is quick because the lid rinses off, while the bowl and blade all wipe clean. Due to its size, this grinder is not the best fit for those who make huge pots of coffee or drink it all day long. It is suitable, however, for singles, couples, and light coffee drinkers. Measuring 4-1/4 by 3-1/2 by 7 inches, the unit includes tidy, out-of-sight cord storage and carries an 18-month warranty. --Emily Bedard

Grinds beautifully, but the switch often jams,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cuisinart DCG-20NR Coffee Grinder, Red (Kitchen)
Though this grinder does a nice job grinding my coffee beans, the switch mechanism has little margin for error. About once a week, when I try to operate the grinder, the switch will not engage and the grinder will not operate. Only after I empty the beans out and give the machine a good shake will the lid finally go on tightly and the switch will engage. I am not particularly messy. This should not happen with a 3 month old coffee grinder.This grinder was a replacement for a seven year old Krups that I discarded due to the dullness of the blades (not surprising), but I never had a switch problem with that one, or the new Krups I bought for home. I regret not sticking with Krups.

I love it. Compact, simple design, easy settings. Easy to use and with the container so easily used to pour out the coffee.

Looks good, works bad,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cuisinart DCG-20NR Coffee Grinder, Red (Kitchen)
This looks great - nice red color, but I am disappointed in its performance. My old Braun coffee grinder took 33 secs to grind coffee to espresso style fine powder. This new machine took 1 min 30 secs to grind, which is 3 times as long. The blades look dull, even brand new.
The motor is fine, probably as strong as the Braun, but the blades did not do the job. I still find the Braun grinder superior to every other version. Note: do not buy Braun if its made in Mexico, as these versions 'leak' coffee dust into the motor - the seals are a problem. I wrote repeatedly to Braun, but to no effect. Use the Braun models made in Spain - absolutely the best! Stay away from Cuisinart, they need to improve the product.
