I've been using the machine for about three weeks now and so far all is good. I have only used the grind side of the device - no pre-bought pods. I did purchase paper filters for the pod, as I thought there were too many grounds getting through the mesh filter, and these have solved that problem.

I love the simplicity that comes with using this coffee maker. it's much easier to keep clean and use compared to other coffee makers that have internal mechanisms that grind the coffee within the machine, making cleaning almost impossible. The reusable pod is perfect, and i also use other coffee pods without issue! My coffee beans stay fresh and the water container holds enough ounces so i don't need to worry about adding water after each cup.

This works great for single-serve brewing, whether from fresh beans via the burr grinder or from a K-cup. I'm the only person in my household that drinks coffee, and only one cup a day, so it's perfect for me. I have a friend who owns a roastery and I've wanted a way to enjoy his beans without the waste of guessing how much to grind for my single cup. This machine grinds the perfect amount directly into the filter for my single cup brew. I love it!

Perfect cup to bean coffee maker I prefer this over a Keurig machine as it's no plastic you have to grind your beans and then move the little filter over into the coffee maker would be easier if you could just do it all in one. They do have a machine, but it's a double the price. This was a great entry level. Makes a great cup of coffee because you're doing it. Fresh beans smells great as you're grinding it definitely enjoying my purchase.

I have been an avid Keurig user for years. Recently I have missed the fresh ground cup of coffee taste. I saw this coffee maker that has the whole bean option for 1 cup OR you can still use a Kcup. I have been alternating between both. The single serve fresh grind option is very easy and very easy to clean. I've been using this for a few weeks now and highly recommend.

Ive always wanted to have a grinder coffee maker so that I can enjoy the full bodied taste of coffee instead of the pods that I was used to drinking. I simply enjoy the convenience of making my own full flavored coffee and the wonderful fragrance of freshly brewed coffee. Thank you Cuisinart for making this possible.

I have had a grinder / brewer coffee maker for many years. It finally gave out. I was looking for a replacement, but they were all too expensive for my needs. Found the Cuisinart Single Server grinder brewer. It is perfect for me. 1. Good price. 2. I can grind one pod of coffee. Brew a cup of coffee. Then reuse the same pod to brew a second cup. 3. The old maker had a full size basket and took a little time to dump out the grinds and then flush out the rest from basket. Also had to rinse out the pot. Now I just tap the grinds out of the small pod, quick run under faucet, and throw cup in washer. I'm done. The only thing I would like for is the grinder to stop grinding 3 or 4 seconds sooner. The pod is jus over filled a little too much for me.

After trying several other machines we took a chance on this one. Love that you can grind fresh beans per cup. It is fast and convenient and really works for a busy work from home couple. Having fresh ground beans really surpasses regular K cups and it is better for the environment. The only thing I would alter is having a larger water reservoir. Overall happy with our purchase!

I really enjoy my single serve grind and brew coffee maker. I like having freshly ground coffee in the morning. I was finding coffee from a kcup just wasn't that appealing any more. I do find sometimes the grinding process is a little messy as coffee grounds don't all end up in the cup. Not a big deal though.

I purchased the grind and brew all in one coffee maker, hoping that it would be replace a stand alone coffee grinder. Once coffee beans were put in the grinder and the machine was turned the grinder would grind the beans however all of the ground coffee was not secured in the grinder. When the grinder completed grinding I would have to clean and wipe up coffe grounds under and around the coffee maker. The ground coffee needs to be contained so it does not spill out of the grinder creating a mess each time I made a cup of coffee. I returned the coffee maker to the store for refund.
