I love that the FlexBrew Trio has options to prepare either a cup or pot of coffee. There's also flexibility in terms of the strength of the coffee, with options for a bold or less bold brew. It's also great the you can program the FlexBrew Trio to brew at a certain time, so you can wake up to a freshly brewed cup of coffee. I do wish a standard re-usable coffee pod fit or that the coffee pot came with a reusable pod to be more environmentally friendly. We had to buy a special reusable pod since a standard one didn't fit.
