Short life. Expensive considering poor quality. The Bottom Line: Stay far away from this and other Cuisinart products. They look great, but are shoddy and not made to last. from Shopping.com It works great. I have had other coffe grinders around the same size and price. The others did not compare to the Cuisinart! I think this product is great and I highly reccomend it for the family with only 1 or 2 coffee drinkers! from Cooking.com What's great about it:?Grinds Well What's not so great:?Only last a few of months "I have purchased two of these grinders. The first one lasted four months, the second one only lasted 1 1/2. from Bestbuy.com I bought this style with the silver retro look as it perfectly matches my Cuisinart coffee maker. The grinder is cute and small, doesn't take up much cabinet space at all! from Amazon.com I have to add my voice to the other negative reviews of this product. I've gone through several other small blade-type grinders from other maufacturers. The two best were made by Braun and each lasted about 10 years, at which time the blades self-destructed. I thought perhaps a slightly better grade of grinder would be preferable, and wanted one I could clean more thoroughly. from Amazon.com I hand wash and rinse it after using. Also grinds manage to slip out from under the grind cup and make a cleanup mess on the base. I think Cuisinart can do better than this! It does grind coffee VERY well though. from Amazon.com It started smoking the last time it was in use. Conclusion: the design is flawed to begin with (parts fitting together, etc.), the method of grinding (blade) is subpar, and its durability is questionable. I've had similar complaints about other Cuisinart appliances. from Amazon.com I had the same problem of a fused cup after about 3 months of using this product. I solved my problem as follows. from Amazon.com My wife and I have always prefered to grind our own coffee beans. The problem was that most coffee grinders had small motors or were over priced. This grinder works great, has the stong motor for which Cuisinart is famous and was low priced to boot. from Amazon.com I am blown away by the crappiness of this product. Mom should have done her homework before buying me this lemon for Christmas. I've been reading the other reviews, and it makes me relatively angry at Cuisinart for putting out what they SURELY must have known was a bad product. Motor burned out within 2 pounds of beans being run through it, and I never got a decent grind in the first place. from Amazon.com
