Customers are saying
Customers are delighted by the FlexBrew 12-Cup Coffee Maker's brewing speed, ease of use, and ability to make both single-serve cups and full carafes. Many appreciate its affordable price and improved design. However, some users find the water reservoir placement inconvenient and the brewing process somewhat noisy. The single-serve function's water reservoir may not always empty completely.

Turtle speed
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The overall appearance of this coffee machine is great. However, the speed of the machine is super slow. Lucky it has a programmed time so that I can set it at least 30 minutes before I want coffee because that is how long it takes to brew. Not very satisfied with this and am currently looking for another coffee machine.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendJack of all trades but a master on none
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The idea behind me getting this coffee maker hamilton beach over competitors is that I wanted to try having the ability, and freedom to brew hot water , ground coffee as well as kpods. Yet when brewing coffee this coffee maker would tend to over flow if you’re not paying attention. Also the kpod taste extremely watery compared to keurig counterparts. Needless to say I returned this model and purchased the k200 with the ground coffee pod. Giving me the ability to brew hot water for tea. Ground coffee, or kpods. With out giving up taste and without having to babysit the mechine.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendIt’s ok

I would recommend this to a friendNot excited
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The 12 cup brews fine. The single serve is very slow compared to my Kuerig
No, I would not recommend this to a friendHard to fill for single cup serving
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When you fill for single cup serving it splashes and or drips all over.
I would recommend this to a friendGood idea falling short
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I couldn’t wait to get this coffee maker only to be very disappointed. The carafe side - no matter how many cups of water you put in you get one cup less coffee. The single side just doesn’t make good tasting coffee at all. I’m sorry to say this one is going back.

- Cons mentioned:Water reservoir
Did not like it.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I liked that it had both a pot and one cup. The water reservoir was very inconsistent placed in the back I did return it because half the time my coffee came out just warm.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Horrible tasting coffee
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Recently bought this coffeepot for convenience of full pot or single cup. No matter which brand of coffee i bought it was horrible every time. Really regret getting rid of our keurig. May be to late for me to return now.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendSlow
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This has got to be the slowest coffee maker ever. It takes a very long time to make a single cup and I have the main pot come on 45 min before I get up in the morning to make sure it will be ready.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBe Careful of Leaking
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This coffeemaker leaks really easily, and ruined some important paperwork. If you buy it, make sure you read the directions on properly filling it, as it doesn't handle water like most coffeemakers.

Just ok
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not very impressed! TOO SLOW! A single cup takes as long as a full pot. No Auto shut-off. Funnel for loose grounds is wierdly wonky. If I was able & timed hadn't passed - I'd return it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNeedle Clogs daily after first cup!
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Single brewer is a pain to close and after a few months of say 1-2 cups a day it now says the needle needs to be cleaned! It sucks! CLOGS!
No, I would not recommend this to a friendLeaks!!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Loved it for 6 months. Now the water leaks out the bottom so fast none goes in carafe.
