Poorly designed, but cute September 18, 2008
The good features about this machine: it's cute the way it swings the filter and makes your coffee from freshly ground beans.

The bad features are many:
1. The keys get sticky rather quickly - can't really clean them well even with alcohol. LCD panel died later. Unfortunately, this machine is totally unusable without the control panel.
2. It's bulky and tall - it's not going to fit every countertop
3. It's inconvenient if you like to drink different coffee depending on circumstances. Stand-alone grinder is more convenient.
4. The coffee that it made was never superior to the one made by (much) cheaper coffee makers.

I like it despite its problems September 14, 2008
I have experienced some of the same problems that others have already listed:

1. Temperature and brew time are substandard.

2. The display started losing some of its elements some time ago.

I've had it for about four years and have not had any other problems, but it averages less than a pot a day.

It is incomprehensible that Capresso makes such a piece of junk and expects you to pay a premium price.

Still, I like it for convenience and taste so I'll look seriously at the new version but I will approach it like its Made in China. They definitely haven't earned my loyalty and only merit my recommendation that you spend your money elsewhere.

Great java August 29, 2008
This system delivers much better tasting coffee than my Cuisinart ever did. It is easy to use; much, much easier to clean. I do wish the coffee was a bit hotter, but I just heat up the milk before I add the coffee. I have not had any spillage problems with water or grounds. Do be forewarned that you should not use flavored beans, especially the powdered ones as it will gum up the works, and that the spout on the carafe is quite shallow and you could spill coffee if you pour too fast. Overall I am delighted with my new coffee maker.

Capresso Coffee Maker August 12, 2008
Capresso 454 CoffeeTEAM-S Coffee Maker/Burr Grinder Combination: We bought one of these before and it took ten years of constant use (and abuse) before it finally conked out. Then we tried a Mr. Coffee, lasted about a week. Then a Cuisinart, lasted about a month. Then we did what we should have done in the first place and bought a new Capresso from Amazon.com. No problem at all and brews a great cup of coffee. Well worth the money.

Could be better August 10, 2008

I have had this coffee maker for almost three years. I love the consistency of the coffee; the low temp is also not a problem since I drink the coffee black.

However, the digital readout has slowly stopped working. First it was just a few parts of it and I could still read the numbers enough to program time for coffee. Then those burnt out and I couldn't program it but could still make a pot on demand. Now the entire readout is gone and it is unusable.
