The bean receptacle should not be coming in contact with any moisture, which it clearly does, so it makes any remaining bean dust get stuck in the bean container, so you have to clean it every single day

The ground beans stick to the top of the container, to the bottom of the container, in the chute, and clog the little holes where the ground beans are supposed to enter the chute and fall into the basket

Also if you do not thoroughly clean the grinder component after every use it gets stuck and does not push the coffee into the filter

Bean hopper is too small (opinion) and even drying the bean hopper thoroughly, ground coffee sticks in the hopper lid and do not make it into the basket (wasting precious beans).

can use paper filters- doesn't drip when you pour- seems to be stronger coffee for same amount of beansHowever, it has these cons:- very hard to clean (6 parts, some with odd shapes)- if you don't dry it 100%, then ground coffee balls up in the grinding chamber- even dry, the steam from brewing enters the grinding chamber and any powered coffee globs up- grinding chamber not big enough for me if I want a full pot of strong coffee- no control on how fine coffee is ground (although the grounds seem to be sufficient)Grind and brew units are hard to find, so I have stuck with this one, but if you don't mind grinding your coffee separately, you might want to pass on this.

I have had no problems with the grounds getting stuck, if I forget to clean it the night before, just rinsing everything before I use it seems to work and have had no problems.

it is a pain to clean, the coffee grinds get stuck inside the grinder and if you don't dry it completely, they build up

First of all, the cuisines makes a great cup(s) of coffee from preground beans

n’t stay warm for long.

n’t go through to the bottom half and can clean the debris before making coffee

Love i!t!
