What experts didn't like

It may be a little difficult to use owing to the numerous settings. It is a bit expensive.
Excess coffee grounds in filter
Some users felt that the coffee maker made a lot of noise while grinding and it didn’t grind the beans well enough
The carafe is pretty much the only detachable part of this grind-and-brew maker. That means that you have to clean the rest of it on the spot. Jokes aside, that be tricky, especially if you consider its many hard-to-reach places such as the pathway from the grinder to the filter basket. So, note that you’ll never be able to clean it as good as you’d like.
No space to store power cord, you need to wind it up after use
No automatic power down feature
