GE Appliances CAFE Grind and Brew - Matte Black: Drip Coffee Maker, 10 Cup Capacity, Coffee Filter Holder, Electric, 45 oz

Beautiful presentation and it seems to be working well so far. Experiencing learning curve to get the settings using different beans, suited to my taste. I haven’t gotten it right, yet. I haven’t experienced difficulty cleaning or leaking which are widely experienced by many according to the reviews I’ve read, but waiting to see how it works over time

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this...but the reservoir leaks. It's not how I'm seating it in the base...it drips slowly even when I am filling it. If I leave water in the reservoir after brewing, it slowly leaks out...over the LCD screen, which apart film being annoying to clean up, can't be good for the electronics. I want to persevere because otherwise it's great. But....sigh

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Makes great coffee. I had been using Keruigs for years and had brewed coffee in a while. This is easy and convenient.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Would prefer a larger bean storage hopper. Would also like to be able to adjust the amount of beans that are ground for a pot of coffee, this option is not available and I feel like it grinds more than as needed. Otherwise, the coffee taste great in the machine looks nice on the countertop and it’s easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife and I bought this to replace our DeLonghi after it stopped working. We wanted a coffee machine that would grind or use pre-ground coffee. We also wanted the ability to make different size cups. This does it all, and it makes a great cup of coffee. Looks great on the counter too. Glad we bought it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine makes a good cup of coffee, which is most important at the end of the day. And it's GORGEOUS on the countertop (albeit large). I also did not experience the leaking issue that others have experienced (I was careful not to over-tighten after inserting the filter and only add water from the top). I take 2 points off for: (1) the grounds get all over the place--under the basket, on the warming unit, on the countertop--after just one brew cycle, and it's annoying to clean; (2) for the price, I'd expect the coffee to stay hot longer and would expect some more brew functions.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this coffee maker... The taste we get from freshly ground coffee is remarkably better than pre-ground coffee and now we can't go back! Also, this is truly the only nice looking modern coffee maker. It always draws attention of our house guest and they comment on how cool looking it is. The only downside is that to really keep this machine running well, you need to stick with maintaining it. Make sure to replace the water filter regularly, especially if you live in an area with hard water- otherwise the line will get build-up and stop working. We learned the hard way and just took the filter out after some time, but without the filter, the water line got clogged up and then we couldn't get the machine to work at all... So we're on our second machine. Also, you'll want to make sure to clean the bur grinder, because that too can get clogged and create issues with the machine operating. Otherwise, great taste, and great look... Nothing else quite like it, so this is our perfect choice!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our machine has broken twice now. First time the water wouldn’t pull from the reservoir at all, so I went through probably a three week process to get it replaced. Now it’s broken again about 6 months after getting my first one totally replaced. This time no matter what cup size setting you have, it only grinds like 4 tbsp of grounds.

Excellent coffee taste and easy to use. Set on Gold and grind 3. Easy setup and directions. Attractive. Love the built in grinder

Machine, (it’s only been 2 days) makes great coffee and is easy to set up and use. I wish there was a way to control the volume of coffee grinds, as my basket was over full on the second pot, yes, I emptied it between pots. Otherwise, the machine is very visually, appealing, and so far functionally awesome

Beautiful appliance. It finishes off the look of the kitchen.

I wish I would have read other reviews before I purchased this model. This model is taller and does NOT fit under an average kitchen cabinet. Also, makes a watery mess every time I open the compartment to add coffee grinds which leaks onto my countertop. Coffee will leak out from the last brew every time, regardless of how many hours have past. The grind is very loud. The buttons are sensitive to touch. You must wait for the entire brew before trying to get a cup of coffee. Unit will continue to leak when you remove the carafe or or mug, making another mess on the unit itself. We have already had a unit replaced as water was leaking from underneath the maker onto the counter. Warranty held their promise though and replaced, however still sames issues. MESSY everytime.

Love my Cafe Grind and Brew coffee maker! Two suggestions for improvement: 1) Why is there a black power cord on a white coffeemaker and on (what most of us have) a white counter? That looks terrible! 2). How about an option for slide verses grip feet? I have to place the coffeemaker on a placemat in order to slide it out from under the cabinet in order to add water and coffee beans.

I have been loving this brewer for less than a year. Looks great, makes great coffee and adjusts to taste during dinner parties. I recently descaled it and now it leaks at the water reservoir when placed in position, I’ve done all the troubleshooting including replacing the o-ring. Tempted to buy another reservoir but my confidence is low.

I have been using this GE Cafe grind and brew coffee maker for over one month now. It’s got a designer appearance (bought the SS). I wanted to get away from using a coffee maker that uses pods due to environmental reasons and I wanted better tasting coffee. This coffee maker accomplishes both. It works as advertised, is easy to use and clean. Coffee stays hot in the carafe for a couple hours (note: I preheat the pot using hot water from my instant hot). I haven’t used the single brew but once. Next time I do a single I will try it on the bold setting as I didn’t think the gold setting was strong enough for that. I do use the gold setting for a pot and it tastes great. Overall, no complaints whatsoever 😘

It makes great coffee, but it is not holding up. All the plastic parts are stained and the interior of the pot is peeling at upper rim.

The design of this appliance is pretty stunning and gets great compliments from visitors to our home. It makes great coffee and using the app to start the coffee maker from bed is a godsend on most days. The large reservoir ensures I only need to fill it once ever other day and adds to the convenience of the coffee maker. Now the not so good, cleaning after each use can be challenging. The filter basket is fairly easy to clean. The screw on lid is a chore as a lot of water gets trapped in the lid, so you spend a minute or two shaking all the water out of it. The carafe has a lip where the plastic top is attached to the stainless pot. Water, coffee and dishwashing soap get trapped in that are so extra care is needed to ensure a good clean rinse. There is a small part that attaches to the machine and keeps water from the drip and the coffee grounds separated. This needs to be removed and cleaned at least every other use. Otherwise you will have a bunch of old coffee grounds stuck to it. The filter basket snaps into place on the machine with two small plastic tabs. Needless to say one of the tabs broke off in the first 30-days of use. It still works with one tab intact fortunately.

Love the look and function of the Grind and Brew .... the included brush remedies any issue ... as it does get clogged at times when grinding .... Wish I could create a stronger coffee .... but got past that by adding a scoop of pre ground beans in the basket previous to brewing ....

Love the wifi feature. wake up and press brew. Makes a good cup of coffee. I put in my 24 oz and its all done automatically. A little cleaning but nothing crazy. I hoped someone would make a pour-over type machine like this.

My husband and I were using the carafe for making our coffee but recently moved to brewing individual cups. We are saving coffee and it always tastes so much better freshly brewed! If I would make one suggestion is would be for the carafe pour spout to be modified.
