Hamilton Beach FlexBrew Trio Coffee Maker, 2-way Single Serve and Full 12 Cup Pot, Compatible K-Cup Pods or Grounds, Combo, Black 49954

I thought I was a Keurig lifer. However recently I started missing the option to set my brew for the morning when I woke up and having a big pot to last me in the morning on the weekends. I know Keurig offers the Carafe but it honestly doesnt hold that much. So fast fwd, I purchased this one after extensive research. As a person who loves coffee and tea and not as a online reviewer asked to review these products because I got them for free, I am completely satisfied with my purchase. So much that I am selling my Keurig and will never look back. The pod to brew your own coffee on the single serve side is nice and roomy so I dont struggle to empty the spent grinds. The pot holds so much coffee that I cant possibly drink that much so I brew half a pot. At first it's going to seem like the single serve side takes a long time to brew, however it's just sucking up the water for the first time and really there is no difference between Keurigs time and this ones time. I even brewed both at the same time to make sure. I love having hot coffee when I wake up and not having to make a cup while sleepy eyed and wait for it. It is bulkier than I'm used to but to be honest the 2 in one machine makes up for its gerth. I will never go back and that's the honest truth. Plus Keurig can cause sinus issues because it grows bacteria in places the cleaning solution and you cannot reach. Some of you might be reading this to see if you can make a single serve cup while brewing a pot and the answer is no. However you can stop brewing, make a single serve cup on that side, then resume brewing the pot. It really is a win win.

I absolutely love this machine, I have the option of brewing a whole pot of coffee or just one cup of coffee. Some days all I want is just a cup of coffee and I don’t want to have to wash a whole pot out just because I made one cup of coffee. This is the fantastic machine it works great and i look foward to many, many mornings , afternoons, and evening cups of coffee

I previously had 2 coffee pots, one for pods and one to make a pot. This is the best of both worlds. My previous single cup maker would not fit all my travel cups. Omg!!! This one fits every cup I own, and I have some tall ones. This was a huge selling point for me. I absolutely love it.

We love that this device has all the features we have been searching for AND bang for buck is great. The features makes this maker complete. You can have a pot or a cup, it has a digital time display, an automatic program feature, an awesome ground coffee basket, if you cant want and need a cup before brewing is complete, it has a drip stop feature, and it has this convenient clear ounce gauge on the single cup side to determine cup filling options! We get up super early for work and its awesome to wake up smelling coffee already brewed and waiting for us. Absolutely love this brew station :)

This arrived tonight in a tightly sealed box that it fit in snuggly, and in good condition only 2 days for delivery it's a Christmas gift so I can't open it just yet, but my son has one same model an I loved the fresh taste of his coffee soI bought myself one

"K" cups fast and easy clean-up. For ground coffe, we clean the plastic filter by swishing it in sink of water and put in dishwasher when oily. Not much to say about the coffee pot side. It's a coffee machine. It makes coffee. Nice to have ready in mornings and of course faster than stovetop percolator. One possible "con." It's fairly tall and might have a large 'footprint' if limited counter space.

Excellent ...quick delivery...I am very happy with this coffee maker....Exactly what I was looking for

Just set up my new FlexBrew this morning . Hope it last longer than my last one did ; as it stopped working on one side within a year. Love the choice of a cup for a pot full,

I like the single cup option is very easy and fast, but the first time i used it the lid on the single side crooked. I dont like that it doesn't make any sound when coffee is ready, nor when it turns off after two hours. The coffee maker worth the blackfriday's price not the regular price of $100

We bought this thinking it solved our problem with me and my wife preferring two strengths of coffee and one of us taking a mug to work with us but after 2 months everything seem to break down on this FlexBrew. The pods were too small a serving for either of us so we used either the carafe side or the brew basket which is hard to clean due to the very fine screen and hard to find to replace. The fast injection of hot water will cause coffee to shoot out the top and leak all down the front if it's not 100% clean and unclogged. The water fill lids warp over time and won't shut all the way. If your like us and have it against a wall you will have to pull it out as the narrow water reservoirs in the back are hard to fill without spilling water everywhere. The carafe side is a lot slower brewing than any other coffee makers we've ever owned but we noticed it takes about 25% less coffee than the single serve side. For those using K-cup pods of cappuccino or hot chocolate, you'll notice a weak flavor as 1/4 to 1/3 of the product is left in the pods and it's better to just rip open the tops and dump it into hot water and stir. It doesn't happen all the time and could be because of poor shelf life of the product.
