 Capresso perfection November 26, 2008
This is a wonderful coffee maker. I love how it grinds the whole beans in a compartment away from the water and filter compartments. This keeps the steam away from the grinder and the grounds do not get caked in. I fill the grinder with beans and add the water to the reservoir the night before, setting the timer for the morning. It makes wonderful coffee from the fresh beans. I definately recommend this coffee maker.
 Good Coffee, but.... November 24, 2008
I bought this product about 6 years ago. I was impressed from the first brew. The coffee was great! The freshly ground beans seemed to make the difference. Then as time went by, certain plastic parts of the machine began to warp from heat exposure. I've had to replace the cover over the ground beans twice already. It has always leaked a little water and as time has worn on it leaks pretty badly today. Out of 10 cups of water we rarely get more than 5 cups of coffee. In the beginning the loss was less than a cup. The condensing steam flows out from the chamber directly over the ground beans and down the outside of the chamber. It's not corrected by cleaning or any other method we've tried. It still makes pretty good coffee, but I'll be looking for another type when we need to replace this one.+
great coffee November 23, 2008
We have three homes and three Capressos. They grind the coffee beans as you make it. For the price, I can't think of a better coffee maker.
 Built-in obsolescence November 9, 2008
I did not purchase this item from Amazon, but bought it from a pricey local kitchen gourmet store. My husband and I gave it to ourselves for Christmas. We have owned it nearly 2 years now.
Pros: I liked the ability to grind and brew without forethought
Cons: You really have no control of how strong the coffee will be, if you like it strong and make a full pot. You must depend on Capresso to grind the right amount of coffee. The only control is to tell it you are making a full pot, and then only use half the water.
Another con: like many other reviewers, I lost the ability to grind the coffee altogether-not because there was any problem with the grinder, but because the LEDs, the master control of the unit went bonkers. I was able to set it once, when the light from my kitchen window shone on it just so, so I left it on that setting and didn't mess with the grinder anymore. That's all fine and good, until the next power outage. So, we have a coffeemaker which makes mediocre coffee (the water temp is waaay too low) and a huge grinder attached to it that is virtually useless.
I paid $299 for this machine. Daily trips to Starbucks, while probably more expensive, at least would make me feel as if I had gotten my money's worth.
great grind and brew machine, DISPLAY ALWAYS BREAKS November 7, 2008
Really like our capresso Machine, that being said, we are on our second and it needs replacing now too due to the display being broken AGAIN. We drink A LOT of coffee so we are always getting fresh grinds, and the taste cannot be beat. But beware of the display, it will break. also has to be held over the sink for the first pour as it spills. Going to try the thermal carafe one now....
