This is a really nice coffee maker.  You can make a whole pot or make just one cup at a time with pods.  There is also a device that you can put your own grounds in and make a single cup.  The whole pot way is also programable to be made at your desired time.  After it is brewed you can set it to just keep it warm In the carafe.  If making a single cup you can set the size to be brewed.  It has 5 settings  - goes up to 14 oz.  You can also set it to regular or bold brew.  We like the whole pot on the weekends when we are home and drink more, but the pods are great for weekdays when we don’t drink a lot.  It is great that both are all in one maker.
