Really nice machine, an incremental update (upgrade?) from previous versions. Convenience of both types is fantastic. The good: for pods it has multiple selection of sizes, coffee tastes great from both sides, and makes it very quickly. Areas where if addressed I would give it 5 stars: permanent filter lets through grinds still. Using paper ones eliminates it (for 10cups+). Lesser Cuisinart models allow to mute the beeping that coffee is ready or when heating plate timer turns off - why not have this feature here? And last, I'm still waiting for wifi/bluetooth connection and an app to control my coffeemaker. Cuisinart - you must have this already!

Been using for two weeks and just love it. Carafe does not drip when pouring like other past versions. Coffee from both the single cup and carafe come out hot and as strong as you want it. Single cup brews in less than 2 minutes and has multiple sizes from 4 oz to 12 oz. Very happy overall!

This is a great cofee maker. It allows you to brew an entire pot of coffee or use coffee pods for single serve. You can adjust for various sizes of coffee cups and adjust the brew stregnth. It is simple to set up and use. Looking forward to many years of great coffee

[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.

I had big expectations with this Cuisinart product, based upon the name, reputation, and my wife's past experience with them. I was quite disappointed when the first one I received wouldn't work like it was supposed to, and I had to return it. I reordered the same exact unit, as it was (providing it worked) exactly what I wanted. It is a very sharp looking and well-made machine. I allowed for a bad one and, this time, wasn't disappointed again. My new unit works extremely well, as designed. I now have a fresh brewed pot of coffee waiting when I get up in the morning. In the meantime, should I want a hot cup, the single serving side is at my disposal. Hot or iced coffee, anytime, wonderful!

This coffee maker is great. You can make hot coffee or iced coffee. You have the choice of making a single cup of coffee or a 12 cup carafe of hot coffee or iced coffee. It is very easy with this new coffee maker. A grande size Starbucks will fit perfect on the single cup size. I have not had any problem with the single cup side except once when I forgot to add water to the water container side. The machine can't make coffee without water. I have not had a problem with k cups exploding. I've used k cups for years. The carafe side was not so easy. I discovered making 12 cups of coffee using 12 measuring scoops of pre ground coffee didn't work well...the water backed up and overflowed the paper filter and the same problem happened when making 10 cups. If yu use the permanent filter it works a little better. But, I prefer paper filters. Do I got my coffee grinder and coffee beans and set the grinder on the highest setting for a medium grind and that worked great. The machine is very easy to use. It has three heat settings for the warming plate on the carafe side. I expect this machine to last me many years as have other Cuisinart coffee makers in the past. Read your manual thoroughly before using the coffee maker the first time.

It not only makes a good pot of coffee, but also is very convenient when you need only one cup of java - single cup from coffee pods. This replaced my old Cusinart with a metal thermal carafe. I use my old thermal carafe on my new Cusinart, and it fits!

Easy to use. Makes coffee fast. The only thing i dont like is the water filter is kinda in the way when you put the water in. You have to pour the water really slow to make it in the small opening to put water in. Single cup area is a great addition and works great

This Cuisinart 2-in-1 coffee maker replaced our Ninja Dual Coffee maker. We love this coffee maker, it makes a great cup of coffee, whether making a full (or half) pot or using a pod. You can chose how many ounces per cup if using pods. Everything is dishwasher safe (except the base, of course!)

This is not my first purchase of this perfect Parker! We have one in our Florida townhouse, and one in our summer house. I have purchased one for my daughter. I have been buying them since they debuted quite a few years ago. This one is an upgraded style, and I love it!
