56 of 56 people found the following review helpful.Good coffee, very noisy
By Susan Gardner Bowers
This coffeemaker does what it says - makes good coffee, dee-lishis customizable coffee, in fact - using either ground or pod. BUT, if you have someone who is sleeping anywhere near the kitchen, beware. Grinding, thumping and bumping. Oh, and beeping - three piercing ones when the process is complete. AND, oops, if you remove the water container for re-fill whilst the machine is on, the beeping gets out of control. four stars - minus one for the sound issues.

By W. Robertson
I was very pleased with the quality of the coffee that this machine brews. For many people, that's all that matters and for them I think the SS-1 can be a great choice.There is a good variety of cup size options, buttons to select strong or regular brew, and its very easy to use your own ground coffee instead of pods, if you'd like.However, I find the noise generated by this machine to outweight the benefits of good coffee. Be prepared for a noisy experience. In my case, the cup actually vibrates across the drip pan. There is a youtube video that demonstrates the brewing situation: [...]

By Dean R. Mcgearey
I agree with the other reviewer it is noisy BUT this is one of the only single serve coffee makers which actually make a "real" cup of coffee. There is even a Bold setting for those who do not need sleep.It arrives with a selection of Lavazza coffees (10 pods) which were all excellent except for the decaffeinated which was disappointing.But the machine delivers outstanding results from ground coffee and the plunger compresses the used grounds into an expresso machine like lozenge that you can tap right into the trash.Cup to cup times are good where it can be ready to make another 8oz cup in about 5-10 seconds from the last cup made.Tired of wasting pots of stale coffee - buy this, you will not be disappointed.NB - (added July 2 2008) I have now had this machine for over 7 months and I would like to add some observations. It is possible to make a good cup of tea with this machine too! I would recommend the purchase of an additional brew cup and filter basket which are both available from Cuisinart as spare parts (approx $40). This way the tea and coffee will not affect the flavors of each other. You can use both tea bags and loose tea.I have also used coffee pods designed for the Senseo with the Sumatra blend being particularly pleasant. I am still a great fan!!
