Who makes it, and what to know
Café is a brand of GE Appliances, which is owned by Haier and based in Louisville, Kentucky. It was a GE product line from 2007 and became a brand of its own in 2018, with its own store and its own warranty. The warranty is one year on the whole appliance; Café's spec sheet lists parts and no separate labor cover. On Café's site it scores 3.5 out of 5 across 419 owner reviews, and 98 of those (23%) are one star. That is a high share. The one-star reviews we read describe the grinder failing within the first year, and one machine that stopped working after a software update from Café's app. It also takes ground coffee, so a failed grinder does not stop it brewing. You buy from Café's own store, so delivery, returns and the warranty are Café's.
