Cuisinart Brewing System (k-cup) ss700 vs. ss780pc I called Cuisinart today. They told me the ss700 model and ss780pc models are the exact same brewer. The difference is, some were packaged to sell at certain stores, some at other stores and were given different model numbers accordingly. The one major difference though, is that the ss700 comes with 12 sample k-cups and one charcoal filter, whereas the ss780pc comes with 54 sample k-cups and 6 charcoal filters. Both versions are sold here on Amazon - one has to decide for themselves which is the better bargain. Hope this was helpful!

I hear you loud & clear on the price of this product. I would love to have one, BUT!!!! I have the Sensco & do like it but I think I will just keep it till it falls apart & maybe the price of these will be down by then.

Thank you for your input. I was trying to find out if the ss780pc was an upgrade or not, and you answered that question. I personally would purchase the ss780pc due to the fact that it has twice as many k-cups (at least $25 value) plus the additional water filters. You'd save money in the long run by spending the additional $10.

Does anyone know if the pump problem has been resolved? Was there ever really a problem, or was it always a combination of air bubbles and/or clogged needle?
1606466
I have been trying to figure this out as cuisinart doesn't even have a 780 listed on their website and I was confused. If the only difference is the kcups and filters, then the 700 would be a better deal for us as we don't generally like most of the sampler kcups and amazon's price on it is currently $175

The pump problem is very real and is common to all of these single cup K cup machines. I'm on my 4th Keurig in 2 years. They replace them, but I'm getting tired of the aggravation. The techs blame it on you not descaling or brewing hot chocolate--ridiculous!

The actual coffee makers are stamped on the bottom with the different model numbers so it is not just packaging and additional k-cups and filters. It could still be the same brewer but they are stamped differently so makes me wonder if there is something else different inside the brewers

It was attributed to operator error. All you need to do is if you do in fact remove the 80 reservoir is to purge the air lock between the filter and the outlet by pushing up and in on the valve underneath until water flows. Just a simple and quick task to preform and your unit will never have any cavitation issues.

Apart from appearance I can't say. I have the 48464 and it brews cold coffee or tea, it is programmable and can be shut off in 1-4 hours. I would hope there is more to the 48465 than looks for the price difference. Be advised the filter/valve assembly is delicate. I broke it while cleaning out crud that (normally) accumulated. That's why I'm looking here.

I don't know how the K-cups relate to other models. However, I will say that I was not happy with the machine because the coffee that is made was so weak and so I returned it.

I'm puzzled. I had the DCC1200 and when that went to the graveyard we replaced it with the 2800. We never changed coffees,and found the difference was that the new one could keep,the coffee hot for 4 hours and was easy to program. We have it set for 0500 and the brew is waiting for us for whenever the cats start complaining about being starved to death.

There are big differences in the machines. The Keurig is essentially a *coffee* machine. It makes a standard cup of coffee. Yes, it can do flavors, and there are dozens and dozens of different varieties, but it is pretty much limited to straight coffee. (There's a hot cocoa K-cup, but it's made by Green Mountain. You know how famous Green Mountain is for their hot cocoa? They're not. There's a reason.) With that much variety, you're just about assured of finding a coffee to your taste. The brewing cycle is optimized for straight coffee (though there is some flexibility there). Temperature is sometimes an issue; some people find the coffee not quite hot enough. The Tassimo, on the other hand, has far fewer varieties of coffee, but a much greater range of beverage TYPES. It makes latte, cappuccino (regular or skinny), espresso, chai tea lattes, hot chocolate, black and green teas. It makes a nice three-level latte macchiato. The temperature of the finished product is higher, and it has Starbucks pods that taste very much like the real thing. But in general, it probably does not do straight coffee quite as well as a Keurig, and there are certainly many fewer bean types, roast types, and flavors for the Tassimo. We finally decided on a Tassimo, and we love it. And that's something you'll generally find to be true no matter what you buy. It's been our experience that unless you're a coffee connoisseur (in which case, neither machine beats the more labor-intensive brewing methods), you will probably be happy with either machine.

I had the K-cup machine and it stopped working after 2.5 years. I now have the Vue V700 and like it more than the K-cup. We use the refillable Solofill V1 with our own coffee. Works great. No worries about being able to purchase the cups. I had some left over k-cups and I just open them and pour the coffee/tea in the solo fill V1. Works for me.

I've only used the KBG 741 so I can't tell you the difference. What I can say is this coffee maker brews the best coffee my hubby and I have ever had. And if I need hot water for tea I can grab the pot while it's still filling the pot and it doesn't run everywhere. I wish the glass on the pot was a little thicker though. I'm glad we bought a couple of extras because we broke one not long after we bought it. We've not had a problem since because we've been more careful. The only other "problem" is that when we have coffee made with any other maker it's not as good, especially restaurant coffee. I've only used the KBG 741 so I can't tell you the difference.

This looks like the first one that takes any K cup as well as the My Kcup. It's discontinued and that's why the price is gouging. The seller should be ashamed. Don't buy it. Keurig came out with the 2.0 which forces everyone to use THEIR k-cups and not the ones that you buy on the grocery store shelves. Company realized that they made huge mistake as people returned the 2.0 and sales dropped off. People were incensed. Apparently, other companies benefitted from this. In fact, since my Keurig died, I just replaced it with the icoffee Opus. Keurig execs lost so much money on forcing people to look elsewhere, apparently they're coming out with a new one.

Good question. Nobody seems to know. I ordered a BCC and received a BC and the seller claimed there was no difference and actually was unaware of a BCC version. I noticed that the BCC descriptions claimed stainless steel, but BC did not. I was afraid BC stood for "brushed chrome". However, when i received the BC version, it is stainless, and says so on the box. I did look into it and found some references to the BCC version being one that complied with Canadian safety standards. Maybe why there's an extra C?Regardless, we've had the BC for a few weeks now and love it. We had an older version Cuisinart grind and brew. this one is a great improvement. Good question.

I don't know about 'commercial' Keurig brewers because I don't use one, I use a household Keurig single cup brewer, I spent over $20.00 for another brand stainless steel refillable cup but prefer these, I have six here at home and six more in my RV, sorry I couldn't help you with a commercial Keurig unit.

The only difference I am aware of is the DCC2600 is 14 cup (vs DCC2650 12 cup) and has a $15 higher selling price.

I was going to buy the 12-cup (1000 count quantity) BUNN coffee filters but the BUNN representative advised against it. He said that the 12-cup is a commercial filters and are not designed for the home model (which pushes out (sprays) its water at a higher velocity and, as a result, the commercial filters have a tendency to collapse inside the coffee basket of the home models. The BUNN representative then recommended the A10 model listed on Amazon. I'm still researching other 8-10 cup coffee BUNN filter models and am trying to determine if the A10 is different than other (boxed) BUNN coffee filters...to-wit: BCF100-B, BCF250 and the 20106.0000 models. One place on Amazon lists the BCF100-B (BUNN Coffee Filter?) as for the 10-cup...yet Costco lists the BCF250 as the filter for the BUNN commercial coffee maker. (In reality, I suspect that the 100 and the 250 portions of the designations refer to the quantity shipped per box, etc.) AARGH! Why does the buying of a simple item like a coffee filter require an engineering degree? Mike

I don't even know what a K70WR is. My bought a K70 which looks just like the machine pictured. I received a Welcome Booklet, a Shopping Guide and owner's manual with a registration card with my machine. You could contact Keurig at 1-888-901-2739 for more answers. Their customer service is very helpful and they have great deals on the coffee pods. Hope this helps.

back in the day we always purchased black & decker (under the cabinet) coffee makers. loved them! this was our first mr. coffee model for the countertop. we've been really pleased. we make 3-pots per day on average and clean the machine once a month. even so...we still only get roughly a year from our m.c. models. my mother gets less than a year using a braun coffee maker (3x the $$ of our m.c.) seems a waste of money? best of luck! cheers, ~ tom

This is my first Keurig so I can't compare. I only use one cup of water. This model suits me just fine, others may not like it. I have found different k-cups will give a little more coffee than others, I don't know why.

Definitely the V2 if you want to be able to use regular K-cups with your V700 machine. The difference between the V1 and V2 is that the V2 gives you the option of using regular K-cups as well as being able to use your own ground coffee. With the V1 you can only use your own ground coffee but not regular K-cups. I've used my V2 often with the K-cups and it works beautifully.

Walmart sells a variety of models for the Kcup for about 5.00 we have two this one is the more pricey one at 10.00http://www.walmart.com/ip/Solofill-K3-Chrome-Cup-Chrome-Refillable-Filter-Cup-For-Keurig/But they are found where the coffee makers are they work great and save you allot of $$ using your own coffee.I found the ones at Walmart fit some makers a certain direction depending on brand.
