I received few days ago the Cuisinart - coffee center brew basics and I love it. One product fits all my needs in coffee!!! 
First of all, the bring up and the usage is very well documented and very easy. One little thing to know is that the POD light will appear when the POD compartment will be opened.
Second of all, I like to clock option, I can get a fresh hot coffee when the family wakes up in the morning and just a cup from my favorite POD during the day. I can even select the size of my POD coffee.
In conclusion, I recommend this coffee machine because you are going to use it everyday either for a pot of coffer or either for a POD coffee. It is worth it.
