This is a great and (so far) reliable coffee maker. I was fed up with the terrible quality and construction and unreliability of Keurig coffee makers. They’ve really become increasingly worse over the years. This coffee maker has allowed me to keep using all of the pods & accessories we already have as well as to brew drip into a carafe. BTW both methods make better coffee than any of the Keurigs I’ve owned. This unit has all of the important features while remaining simple and intuitive to use. It also looks good! There are 2 reasons I gave 4 (instead of 5) stars: 1. The ‘Bold’ feature only works for the drip brewer side (it should REALLY be available for pod brewing too). 2. Cuisinart should really offer a stainless, thermal carafe for this brewer (even if it’s just as an optional, additional purchase).

The machine was delivered and after 6-7 uses it was everything we wanted it to be. Unfortunately within 1 week during a thunderstorm, there was a lightening strike which blew oit the blue back light of the machine making it very difficult to see the settings. Not sure what my course of actuon will be at this time.

Love this coffeemaker! My husband is snooty about his coffee, and this Cuisinart machine makes a perfect cup for him. Meanwhile I’m just happy to have caffeine, and I can grab a quick single cup with a pod. Had it almost a month and no issues. Looks good too!

I hesitated to pull the trigger after reading so many bad reviews, but there is a limited choice out there for dual brewing machines, so i rolled the dice with this one. My machine is working after a month and I couldn't be happier with it. The single serve side is my favorite of any I've had so far and we all know they only live a year or two, so I've had many. The glass carafe feels razor thin and cheap. I make a point to be extra gentle with it so it lasts. I'm sure replacements are available somewhere and it's not a deal breaker if I smash it. I am happy enough with the functionality of both halves of the machine that I will happily deal with this. I will update if the machine dies prematurely. If so, I won't try any of the other dual machines and will buy sesperate cheapo machines and consider them disposable when they break every year.

This is my third Cuisinart Brewer and have to say I love it. Brews fast and I use the Bold button at times wanted to see if a difference and there is.. Has a low tone beep for the finish which is different then my others which were loud and annoying. Pod cups work just as fast and large water holder for different size cups. It is large in size but takes the place of having 2 makers on the counter. Instruction booklet is easy. Great Product.

Love our new Cuisinart! Brews quickly, makes great coffee, takes up less space on our countertop than our previous coffee maker, and keeps the coffee in the carafe hot after it brews, which works great for us since my husband typically wakes up quite a bit earlier than I do! The only thing that could be improved is the spout design...if you're pouring a little too fast, it does spill over...our previous coffee maker of a different brand did not do this. But this is minor when considering the coffee maker over all!

This coffee maker has a life span of about 8 months even with regular cleaning and descaling it just stops working. Unfortunately the parts they must use to construct this are sub par at best. When it works it is great but life span is disappointing at best this is my second one. Good thing they stand behind the product to send a new one

This coffee maker gives me decaf or regular if my morning delight! I gave up an expensive "maker" because my friend has a Cusinart that always made great coffee and I found this to be the same for me with this new one. I love how it keeps it HOT and all the features that are simple to use. What more can you ask for?????? Thanks Cusinart

I love this coffee maker station. I was hesitant to get it as I’d seen reviews of people having issues with the pods so of course that was the 1st thing I tested because I generally make 1 cup a day and it worked beautifully. The carafe also comes in handy. It’s fast for both in my opinion. This is a space saver as you’re getting 2 in one. It’s also a stylish addition to the kitchen. Even though I haven’t tried features like setting up a schedule or even brewing over ice, I would recommend this coffee maker

It’s beautiful to look at. Love the features. However, I’ve had a lot of trouble with the SS not wanting to work. I found help online about the black button inside, but I’ve had to repeat it 3x .. this issue should be in the booklet because it’s certainly an issue, and a very frustrating one. Otherwise, I love the machine. I just hope the SS doesn’t keep acting up
