I've owned a Starbucks Barrista Machine for many years and it still works great, but I've gone through more grinders. I hadn't planned on replacing my coffee maker but a really good burr grinder isn't cheap. I saw this machine and saw the reviews and realized it wasn't that much more than a good grinder. I realized this would reduce the unsightly mess I have on my counter from two appliances and considering my usually degree of early morning incoherence before coffee (a cross between Frankenstein and name your least favorite member of Congress) - anything that makes 6 am simpler is a good thing.
Setting up this machine was a breeze. I unpacked it, installed the charcoal filter and ran a cold pot of plain water through. I filled it up with beans and fresh water and let it go for the next morning. I won't say I looked forward to 6 am. I'm not that crazy, but this morning I was greeted by an excellent pot of coffee. It was the proper temperature. The coffee was shiny, a really polished look to the finish. There was no bitterness at all and it was just so rich and smooth. This was exactly the experience I was hoping for.
Clean up was a snap. I pressed the button on the side and the gold tone filter swings out in the hod for simple clean up. The thermal carafe lid easily unscrews for cleaning.
The amount of noise from the grinding isn't bad, it's certainly less than my Krups burr grinder and what a relief not to have a mess everywhere.

Product Description
Equipped with a built-in conical burr grinder, this coffeemaker automatically grinds and brews up to 10 cups of exceptionally flavorful coffee. The unit's slow burr grinding produces minimal heat, which helps preserve coffee's full aroma and flavor, while its solid-steel conical burrs offer five grind settings from coarse to fine for adjusting the coffee strength. A user-friendly push-button control panel with an easy-to-read illuminated LCD display ensures simple operation and programming. Choose from five brew amounts (2 to 10 cups) and select the coffee strength: mild, medium, or strong--or set the clock and timer for automatic brewing at a later time. The coffeemaker provides two modes of operation for brewing coffee with or without the grinder. Grind/Brew mode grinds a programmed amount of whole beans directly into the gold-tone filter, then automatically starts the brewing process. Brew mode allows for adding ground coffee without the use of the grinder--simply push the filter-release button to open the swing-out filter holder. Freshly brewed coffee dispenses into the included 10-cup stainless-steel thermal carafe, which comes with a stay-cool handle and non-drip spout. For sneaking a quick cup midbrew, just remove the carafe from the machine to pause the flow of coffee, then return it to continue brewing. Other highlights include a 200 degree F brew temperature, a 6-ounce capacity bean container, a see-through window for checking to make sure ground coffee flows smoothly into the filter holder, a detachable see-through cover for cleaning the grinder channel, a charcoal water filter that removes up to 82-percent of chlorine and other impurities from tap water, and two-hour automatic shut-off for safety and peace of mind.
