Absolutely LOVE this coffee maker! I use it equally both ways. Sometimes I set the pot so it’s ready when I get up for work, and other times I choose the re-usable pod and ground coffee for one mug on-the-go. Also, I am a die hard brewed coffee fan—never loved an k-cup—however the pod brews consistently great coffee! It’s hot and wonderful either way! I’m a return Cuisinart customer after trying another brand in between and I am so glad I came back! Completely satisfied!

I liked the old one better. It had a light to let me know when water was needed. I am right handed and the water fill was on the right side and you could see the water level any time. I am getting ready to get rid of this and get another brand. Also, the pod service was also on the right side. Now you have to wait until you put the pod in and close it before the (needs water) indicator comes on. Bad design. The older one was perfect except it quit working and we got stuck with this one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Returning it. The grounds spilled over in the basket just like many reviews stated. However, many had no problems stated in the reviews, so i have ordered another one. We will hope this one works properly

I absolutely LOVE this new Cuisinart 2 in 1 Coffeemaker. The reviews on the previous version were not very good, but they have come out with an updated- improved version. It works great. I love the options for making full carafes or just single cups, plus the feature of being able to brew over ice. Such versatility. I am replacing an older Cuisinart with this model. I went back to my Cuisinart when my Keurig quit working. Cuisinart brewers make delicious coffee, so, when I realized I could have one machine with both features, I decided to order this NEWER version- the one with the single k-cup part on the left and the carafe part on the right.This configuration makes it easier to fill the carafe side. I am so glad improvements were made and I am glad I purchased the 2 in 1 Cuisinart.

I bought this to replace a single-serve coffee maker that wore out. I wanted one with a single and a drip-pot for groups. So far it works great. I use the single most of the time with the provided coffee grounds cup. I don't use k-cups thought they work just fine. It make s a nice cup of coffee. The screen filter leaves a fine residue so I bought some paper filters for it. I think it makes a better cup. Otherwise a well-made piece of equipment

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this coffee maker to replace an older cuisinart that had reached its final cup. It served us well. We love the redesign of the new machine!! It brews consistently good coffee with a pod or regular pot. No complaints.Love that you can pick a size for the pod side. Very convenient for smaller mugs. Hoping this will last as long as our old one which was around 15 years old.

We bought this to replace our old Keurig Duo and returned it. It isn't tall enough to fit travel mugs under the pod side without taking the drip tray apart. Even then you can't get the full mug out without spilling coffee. The carafe leaks when pouring. It made weird noises while it was keeping the carafe warm. Having 2 water reservoirs wasn't convenient.

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 my 2 in 1 coffee center! Saves lots of room on my counter top. Only wish is that the pod water container was a lil bigger. Can only make 2 cups of coffee before you have to refill the container. Small hiccup comparing to the advantages of having only one appliance instead of two!

This is a nice K-cup/carafe combo. Attractive and easy to set up. Our office has had it for about 3 weeks. The single serve works just fine. The carafe option generally does, but I had one instance this morning where I put in the water and coffee, hit the carafe and brew buttons and only about 1/8 of a cup of coffee came out. I had to empty everything out and start over. Then it worked. Hopefully this won't happen again, but I will monitor.
