A programmable pod brewer with strong, iced and temperature settings plus a hot water function, built for quick single cups. Brewing your own grounds needs a reusable filter that is sold separately.

Overview

A busy household coffee drinker gets one cup at a time from a K-Cup pod, with the size, strength and temperature chosen on the control panel. The brewer draws from a removable tank, can brew hot over ice for iced coffee, and also dispenses plain hot water for tea, soup or oatmeal.

Customization is the reason to choose it: strength, temperature and an iced mode on one brewer. Pods are the default, so anyone brewing ground coffee needs the separately sold reusable filter, and the body is plastic under its brushed finish and metal details.

Who it's for

Homes where each person wants a different cup size or an iced coffee get quick single servings without a carafe. Heavy drinkers who want a full pot ready in the morning, or people who avoid pods, will be better served by a drip machine.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Strong brew setting for bolder cups
  • Iced setting brews hot over ice
  • Adjustable brew temperature
  • Hot water on demand for tea
Cons
  • Reusable ground coffee filter sold separately
  • Plastic body behind the brushed finish
  • Brews one cup at a time
  • Warranty terms not listed

Performance notes

Flavor depends mostly on the pod and the cup size chosen, since the same amount of coffee in a larger cup tastes weaker. The strong setting and the temperature control adjust how the brewer extracts that pod, and the included water filter treats the tank water before brewing.
