This machine looks really nice so I purchased the black stainless. Once I received it, I was preparing the initial „set up“ like running water through the coffee maker then attempting to do the same in the K-Cup side when the pod button wouldn't illuminate or turn on. I called Cuisinart customer service and she walked me through several troubleshooting attempts. To no avail the machine was defective. I returned it to Sam's Club for a refund. Reordered the same machine (in store they only sell stainless steel not black SS) once I received the machine again, same issue. It's really frustrating that the K-Cup wouldn't work on either machine because what a nice looking brew machine it is. But I returned a second time and will not purchase again. After reading reviews, this machine gets about 3.2 stars.

The carafe coffee maker makes wonderful hot coffee! The pod (K-Cup) side of the coffee maker does not work as well as the previous model of this dual Cuisinart coffee machine. Can’t figure out the problem. Hot chocolate K-cups do not empty completely. Perhaps not enough pressure? Still trying to figure it out.

My first coffee maker leaked, then started trying to brew even when it was turned off, then stopped working entirely after two weeks. Luckily we were able to return it and after two weeks the new one is still working, so in a few months maybe I can give it a better review if it keeps working.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This 2-in-1 Coffee Maker has some nice enhancement from the similar one I purchased in 2019. It still beeps 5 times when the carafe of coffee is finished brewing and after 2 hours from brewing. However, the beeping is not as loud and annoying from the last model. A new feature I enjoy using is the cold brew function. It brews the coffee, both carafe and pod, stronger so it won't be weak over ice. Save on buying cold brew coffee from the stores. Also, I like the additional brewing sizes for the pod coffee, 4, 6, 8 and 10. Personally, I like that the pod and carafe switch sides from the previous model, and this model is slightly more narrow which gives a bit more space on the counter.

We were very excited about this combined unit. It was replacing a 10+ year old Cuisinart that my wife took to work because it was still working. I am sad to say we have been extremely disappointed with the Pod side of the unit. It has blown out so many Pods that we only use the refillable Pod. I have not figured out why it is doing this.

Love the unit in general. A few items I would like to see changed. How to turn off the beep sounds when the pot is finished. Allow the use of the "Bold" feature when programming a pot to be brewed with the timer and the pod settings. The pod water temp needs to be hotter. Otherwise, the unit works very well and makes a delicious pot of coffee.

This coffeemaker is a nice upgrade over my older 2 in 1 Cusinart. It’s much easier to pour water into than the older model and I love the choices of Pod sizes. It seems to be a quality well built machine and the carafe stays nice and hot and “just right”. It looks great on my counter and I wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend this machine if you’re looking for a good quality 2 in 1 coffee brewer ! Great job Cusinart !!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great coffe maker with many options and very intuative operation. One issue - I use a 20oz Yeti everyday and the single brew side will not brew directly into the yeti surprised I had to develope a work around for this shortcoming. Even with that I elected to keep the unit and have really enjoyed it.

The coffee maker is good. It makes a great cup of hot coffee. Single cup is quick too. This model's height is a little shorter than the previous model I had so I can have it under my cabinet/shelf without having to pull it out from underneath the cabinet. The reservoir is on the back right side; my previous model was on the left. Right-handed people found pouring on the left side was awkward and messy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a few weeks and love it. I have a grind and brew that is probably 15 yrs old and still works like a charm. I had been using Kuerig’s for years but they would break within a couple of years. So glad I went back to Cuisinart
