This is the first time using a coffee maker with a built-in in grinder. So that's a game changer since I tend to grind every few days. I like that there are multiple brew sizes and an expresso style for my husband. But what I would like is a larger reservoir. Given the larger size of the unit already, a larger reservoir would not make a difference. And I know hot water is not a function of the unit. But I'm able to get hot water with the special grounded coffee function. This would have been a deal breaker if I couldn't make my tea.
