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

Very pleased with this machine, especially since it grinds and brews coffee for a carafe, as well as operates a separate section for K-cups. It's ingenious!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Both water reservoirs should be connected. We make a lot of pods, and it is inconvenient to keep filling the pod reservoir.

We had a prior Cuisinart Grind brew for 10+ years and felt it was reaching end of life. So decided to replace with another Cuisinart but adding the flexibility to do the single k-cup when we don't want so much coffee. VERY disappointed that we found leakage in the counter multiple times. At first I thought maybe I messed up pouring the water into the very small opening. But after several times, even when I knew I added the water carefully, I found much water in the counter after brewing. Had to have a leak somewhere. Then saw several reviews online with similar issues. We returned the coffee maker to the retailer. May not buy Cuisinart again.

This coffee maker will not make a bold pot of coffee. I like my coffee strong and there is a bold button that you can turn on, but honestly there is no difference in taste. Additionally, the basket to grind the beans is very small. You would only be able to make a very very weak whole pot of coffee if you filled up the carafe with water because you cannot fit enough beans into the grinder to make strong pot. Very disappointed since the cost is really high.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

REALLY LOUD coffee grinder, the main reason for only 3 stars. The coffee also drips from the brew spout every time you pull the pot out to pour, no matter how long you wait after it’s done brewing. Other than that, passable coffee maker. I have not used the k-cup feature; we use this mainly for hot water. I also find it disappointing that the reusable k-cup container did not come with the product. Makes a good cup of coffee and looks nice.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The fresh ground coffee is the best part, the only down fall is that condensation accrues and you have to clean the grinder after each use. There should be a way for that to be sealed so that doesn’t happen.

After weeks of reviewing, decided to purchase this Cuisinart Grind & Brew and am now very disappointed. The grinder is so loud, it wakes the family up. So much for having fresh ground coffee to wake up to. Cleaning the grinder is another headache in and of itself. Then filling either/both water reservoirs is very cumbersome. There's no view even of the single cup reservoir to monitor how close the water is getting to the top. I have drenched my counter, the floor, and anything close multiple times already. Then the Keep Warm setting is so hot, you basically scorch the coffee within an hour. And without an option of a stainless carafe, what choice do you have to rectify? So, especially given the cost, I'm disappointed not only that it may have just been mediocre but that it was the worst I've bought in a long time.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
