Hamilton Beach 2-Way Brewer | Model# 49980Z

this is hands down one of the best purchases i have made in a while. went looking for a single serve/ pot machine. came across this and the keurig version. the keurig was almost 200$while this was right around 70 for the white version which i dont mind. this thing has been getting used quite often. buy reuseable coffee filters and you good to go.

we have been using a Keurig with the carafe and the single serve, for roughly 8 years. we went through three, the first one was the best second one and the last one didn't even make it a year. I have no idea why it took us so long to get this one, it was a great price, the looks of it is very fancy, two separate water compartments, there is a switch so that you can choose which one you would like, it pours out nicely without making a mess, we love the timer part, we enjoy it, it has all sorts of features the Keurig does not.. I will be recommending this product to anybody who is interested in a good coffee pot.

I am replacing my older version of this coffee maker that I have had for at least 12 years. While it still worked, it wasn't tasting the best so I decided to replace it. I went with the same exact coffee maker because I loved that it didnt use KCup style baskets in the mug side so I can customize how much grounds I use. I also found this style basket easier to clean. I also really liked that it doesnt have a reservoir and you just put in the amount of water you need each time. This takes the guess work out of what size mug you have and also keeps the water from going stale sitting in the reservoir. This is a great machine that I hope will last me another long time.

This coffee maker is amazing. I was trying to get away from pods because they are getting very expensive especially when you have company over. So this is perfect for me. I have to use my own coffee grounds. I found some small filters that fit the single serve. Makes hot coffee fast . I can't tell you how much I love this coffee maker. Money very well spent! Since I don't like to make a whole pot just for me this is perfect. When I have company over, I can make the full pot. Very user-friendly. Very easy to set. I just highly recommend this you can't go wrong by buying this coffee pot.i like it has a little gadget that allows you to make coffee with a regular cup , you don't have to use a large travel cup .

I feel that it is easy to use, versatile and helps lower ones microplastics ingestion. You also have the ability to make that very strong %26 bold coffee we all need at times. It looks fine to me, but if you are trying to impress someone with your coffee maker, this probably isn't the right choice for you. The only compliant that I have is that it is not as fast as a Bunn coffee maker. To me based on the price, versatility, and general appearance - it was the right price point for me.

I've been using this product for 9 months now. I give it 3 stars for 2 big reasons: %231 Water and coffee build up under the plastic ring on the rim of the carafe and is near impossible to get out. Yuk. %232 If you overfill the water and/or the grounds in the basket on the single serve side, even if by just the tiniest amount, you are going to have a huge mess on your hands and no easy way to clean it. I've had this happen about 3 times in the 9 months I've had it and each time it's taken me tons of q-tips, quite a few paper towels, and a bare minimum 30 minutes of my time to get all the grounds out of the apparatus where the water comes out.

I would give the single cup side of this coffee maker 4 stars as it did the job well, although the coffee could come out a little hotter. The screen mesh saves on buying k cups, but isn't easy to clean. You might be ok with just rinsing it off to get the grounds out--that's fine but not for me. The pot part of the coffee maker is where I had the most trouble. I used the filters that came included, ones we had from our old coffee pot, but neither could prevent the grounds from overflowing beyond the paper. I tried to just use enough water/coffee for 6 cups, which is only half the capacity, and even then the coffee grounds rose up above the filter. This made it harder to clean up after each pot, but even worse were the coffee grounds that made it to the pot. A dual coffee maker is great for convenient, but the problems outweigh the convenience and cheaper price. I'll be returning it.

YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!! After reading all the reviews I thought this coffee maker would be a great choice, nope! Coffee maker is nothing great, just okay, but I find the coffee is NOT hot just after brewing, as I can take a gulp without burning my mouth! Also, the coffee does not taste as good as my old Cuisinart pod/carafe machine made it! I went back to my old machine!

We've always had a ninja coffee maker however we started to notice that the coffee wasn't hot. We explored options and thought we would give this coffee maker a try after reading the reviews. First- the coffee isn't hot. What happened to coffee makers that make hot coffee? Second- it's inconsistent in flavor. Sometimes it's stronger/weaker than the day before. I use same water and same amount of coffee day to day. It also doesn't beep when it's done which is just a preference that I didn't realize I preferred. Overall- disappointed in this purchase.

I can't because I never received it also I called customer service they told me it would take 30 days for me to receive I had told her it was delivered to the wrong address that's when I was told it will take 30 days this is not the first time are the second time this has happened on wrong address delivered
