Only complaint..the K-Cup side overflows frequently. I wish I had read reviews before purchase. However, we now push the K-Cup down hard enough to puncture the bottom of cup and have had no problems since.

Great when you like a pot of coffee or a cup of coffee.

I’ve been a Cuisinart fan for many years. This is at least my 3rd or 4th one. I end up buying a new one not because the previous one is broken/faulty but because I want a different color (I donate the old ones). I love the heat feature where you can make the water low/medium/high in temperature. Purchased this one to have the option of using single serve at night or when guests prefer it. So far everything works great on both sides. If you are worried about space the size of this version isn’t much bigger than the carafe coffeepot. If I had to complain about anything it would be that the water heat feature doesn’t apply to the single serve side which was disappointing. FYI the 2 units work independently of each other but can’t be run at the same time. It would have been nice to include the water heat feature on both sides but not a deal breaker.

We love our Coffee Center. It replaced a 10 cup coffeemaker and is our first single-serve. It’s very easy to use the single-serve filter with grounds, so we haven’t purchased any pods or k-cups. Only reason this isn’t a five-star review is that the single-serve spits/splatters while making a cup. Our solution is to place an upside-down ramiken underneath the coffee mug so it’s closer to the opening.

I enjoy the ability to fix an entire pot of coffee or a single cup. My only issue is that I’ve had the ground almost completely overflow into the pot.

I was hesitant to purchase this because of the bad reviews regarding coffee spewing everywhere. Let me just say that I love this unit. I use k-cups in the single serve side as opposed to filling the enclosed filter cup with coffee – and I have had no problems with coffee shooting everywhere. I use the pot side on weekends and have had no issues. It makes a great pot of coffee. I do use a small pitcher to fill the water reservoirs on both sides and it does make the process easier. Would definitely purchase again – depending on the longevity.

First off its beautiful! Love having the ability to have a pot or single cup. Just as everyone says there are a few designs flaws but not deal breakers. The reservoir on the pot side is in the back and kind of hard to fill using the pot without spilling water. My fix was to use a small funnel or pull the unit out on my cabinet slider. (Best investment) as for the kcup side it does splatter but fix was to use taller cups. I use a yeti and it fits perfect. Overall I love ot!

I bought this to replace a 14 cup coffee maker and I am so glad I chose this one. My husband can now have a fresh hot cup of coffee instead of heating up what I left for him. We use it for Hot Chocolate as well. This made a great addition to our kitchen!

This coffee maker offers great options for brewing a pot or single servings. We really like the reservoir for the single serving side so it doesn’t need filled for each cup. We loved this coffee maker so much that we bought a second one even before the first one wore out!

We really like that you can use the generic pod and your own coffee to brew a cup UNLIKE A KUERIG. The one thing that lowered the stars was the 12 cup brewer . If you put 12 -15 level scoops in the basket it is too full and in many cases the coffee grounds overflows into the pot . The coffee basket needs to be enlarged . To remedy that I only make 10 cups and put 10 level scoops in . THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED . VERY DISAPPOINTING

Great Coffee Maker. Minor issue with the reservoir on the single serve side. Cuisinart handled and replaced what was needed without an issue.

We bought this for the office break room and like it so much that I bought one for my home as well. It saved counter space be replacing a standard coffee pot and a single-serve brewer. The only complaint is difficulty filling the main reservoir. The single-serve reservoir is removable and can be filled from the tap or fridge. The main reservoir is not removable and the opening is small; also the lid is in the way when you need to up-end to drain the last of the water in the carafe. The carafe dribbles down the front if you try to pour water into the reservoir quickly. The result is a slow reservoir fill with water dripping everywhere anyway.

I’m not sure how I lived without this. I’m a big tea and coffee drinker and this coffee maker provides both. You can make a 12 cup pot of coffee or just a single cup pod serving. It’s incredible the wide selection of pods for coffee, tea and even hot chocolate. I would have given this 5 stars but it’s a little tricky the way they have it set up to fill the 12 cup coffee reservoir.

This coffee center works great for us. My husband and I like to have different beverages daily, so being able to make him coffee and me tea so easily just works for us.

Wish there was a bigger cup size for the individual coffee. 10 oz. is the largest size. I have big mugs and like a big mug of coffee. I do like that I can make my one cup or a pot of coffee. I also like that my husband can make his pot of dark roast coffee and I can use the individual one to make my medium roast.

Great machine, the only thing I wish was better is how you fill the brewer with water. Maybe it is just me but I don’t thik there is enough room at the top of the machine to gracefully fill the brewer

We love it! the only thing to make it perfect is if the water reservoir was bigger but I understand that since we bought the one w the carafe there was prob not room. This was a compromise of 2 people . One who used to only drink out of a pot of coffee and now, even she loves it! She loves she can make a pot of coffee when she has bridge ladies over.

This dual coffee maker hits all the sweet spots…90% of the time. Coffee brews hot, both in the carafe and k-cup dispenser. Customer service has been spot on and stands behind their product. I encountered a fast clock with my first ss-15. In a weeks time it was 45 minutes fast. Cuisinart apologized and two weeks later I have a new one. Only thing I wish I could turn off or mute is the end of brew signal, 5 loud beeps that can be heard a block away. Loud enough to wake man and beast. In this case my significant other and a spoiled Aussiedoodle. 5 stars otherwise.

I really like the coffee maker and especially like the fact that I can brew a 12 cup pot (for the weekends) and brew a K cup for single cup servings, like when you’re on the way out and need coffee for the ride to work.If i had to criticize anything it would be having to fill the water reservoir for the 12 cup brewer. The opening in both back corners to pour the water in is a little tight. This isn’t a deal breaker though, my wife and I love it.

I love this machine. It was exactly what I wanted. Works well and very well designed.
