   I wanted to like this machine and was excited to receive it. Unfortunately the top wouldn’t fit properly into the base and it had to be returned. I’m ordering a different brand today.

   This grinder works ok. The coffee comes out ground fine to coarse depending on the setting you choose. The grinder comes apart for cleaning and cleans up well. Using this grinder beats using a hammer to grind your coffee beans.

   Because I read such great reviews of this unit I picked it over the less expensive Krups and Cuisinart burr grinders. Having spent an hour trying to set the Capresso up, I now regret my decision.

   First, what people say about following the directions when setting up the hopper is true. It has a cheap, thin plastic collar that will break if torqued even slightly. I know this because it broke even though I was closely following directions. For $90, the company should have made the collar more durable, especially considering the hopper will be removed and replaced often.

   Plus, the hopper would not fit onto the base correctly. Again, following the directions carefully I could not get it to set evenly. Maybe the burr wasn’t seated correctly as some have noted. I couldn’t remove the “removable” burr, so I can’t say.

   Anything this fragile and difficult isn’t worth owning. It’s a piece of badly designed junk in my opinion and is being returned tomorrow.

   Go for something else and forget the Caprisso 560.

   I’m too disgusted to leave an appropriate review. Save yourself from a poorly designed product and buy another grinder (any grinder but this one). The blades locked up before I ever had a chance to make one cup of coffee!

   I like the grinder. However, I was very disappointed with the one I got from Amazon. There was a part missing and the gears were rusty. Amazon did take it back and refunded my full purchase price. I later bought one from another vendor.
