Customer Reviews for Cuisinart - Coffee Center Grind & Brew Plus 12-Cup Coffee Maker with Carafe and Single Serve Brewer - Black Stainless Steel

After reading past reviews I was skeptical about purchasing this coffeemaker however the complaints others listed are minimal. Yes, when grinding coffee beans there is more to be cleaned but that should be expected. This coffee maker brews a pot or individual cup quickly and hot.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best of all worlds. Brew a pot, make a pod, or grind some fresh beans. Excellent performance and classic styling. Looks great

My old version of this unit- that is just the big coffee pot finally gave up 12 yrs later. So worth the money years ago. I needed a new one and seen this one and thought if this one lasts 5-6 years I have done good again, well see. So far really like it. Wish this model had the temperature setting option. Also wish the kcup side you could see the amount of water your adding like the big pot side. No biggie. I also wish you could brew a large pot and do a k cup at the same time. They have two separate filling areas, it seems a technical thing and they just haven't done the tech yet. I make a large pot to take to work and would like to fill my coffee mug separate or want something different at that time. So I just have to wait and take turns. I like that you can use the kcup side to make just some hot water for recipes that take small amounts. I used to have to measure and then put it thru the large one. Way faster than a microwave for things like Ramen and oatmeal. Its really a great option to have single serve or large pot without having to choose one machine or two to buy. You get it all in one.

Good Pot of Coffee, but the grinder sounds like a plane about to take off!

I had a regular Cuisinart grinder style coffee machine for about 6 years, until my water reserve. I wanted another one, when I began shopping, to my surprise you had the same style, and added subtle brew also. Wow... love both... and best is my stainless steel cuisnart carafe fits instead of the glass one.
Thank you!
Thank you!

I was excited to get this combination grind, brew and single serve coffee maker. It is what I expected except I’ve had trouble with the single serve part. It is destroying the container and I’m getting coffee grounds all over including in the coffee. Not sure what I’m doing wrong. Another thing is that the light blinks continuously until the coffee maker is ready to go and all components are in place. It is annoying to have that light blinking all the time

Love this unit because it is a space saver that grinds beans and also uses K-cups. What needs improvement is the latching mechanism to the lid on top. Fails after about a year. Needs to be held down or grinder will not work. (We are on our third machine.) Grinder needs to be larger. Will not hold enough beans for a 12 cup brew that is strong enough.

My 4 stars has nothing to do with brewing--on both the carafe side and the pod side this coffee center brews great coffee. My only real negative is that there is no way on the pod side to know how much water is in the reservoir (unlike the carafe side where you can see the fill level from the outside of the brewer.) So you need to resort to "guessing" until the brewer tells you to "fill up".
