I purchased this product with great anticipation since my sister-in-law has a single cup coffee maker. I have never been more disappointed and frustrated with any product in my life. The machine comes with stale coffee pods, makes horrible tasting coffee, and one cannot find decent readily available replacement pods. I tried to return the coffee maker and Amazon told me I had to deal with the manufacturer and the manufacturer wanted to charge me a shipping fee to return the coffee maker plus a restocking fee making it more expensive to return than I paid for it…right in the trash can and thanks alot Amazon and Keurig. I have learned a valuable lesson about shop[ing on-line…don’t do it!

This is one of the best coffee makers that I have ever purchased and was well worth the money. I never knew that coffee making could be so easy now with the K-cups that have the premeasured amount of coffee already. You just pop one of these K-cups in and in about a minute your coffee is in your cup. The flavors are fantastic. You can even make your hot chocolate or teas with the premeasured K-cups, as well. This is truly a must buy for all those who enjoy their coffee. It makes life so much easier now. Buy one and you won’t ever regret it. It’s the best way to enjoy that cup of coffee that you love!! Excellent!!

I have a small office with two coffee drinkers who used to drink too much coffee or throw away a 1/2 pot daily. Now we just make a cup when we want it and it is brewed to perfection.

This was an item on my Wish List this Christmas. I love it. I’ve a very busy life and this is one less thing I need to clean. Even if I wasn’t busy, who really loves cleaning that much anyway? Every morning I can grab a nearly instant cup of coffee without having to grind, pour water and clean up the grounds. It is very “user friendly” as well– no huge manual or video necessary to learn how to use it. I am a Starbucks fanatic and love strong coffee so I’m still testing the various available brands. Some are much better than others if you like the strong stuff. Also, you can buy a little filter if you need to have some other sort of coffee besides whats offered in the k-cups. The tea is great too by the way.

I’m a very picky coffee person who used to look on these Keurig machines with total derision. You’re kidding me? I have no control over the brewing of my coffee? No thanks. But then we got one at my office on a two-week trial, and I had to admit the coffee it brewed was much better than the stuff I made myself. I decided to put one of these on my Amazon wish list after a checkup at the doctor suggested I was consuming too much caffeine; I figured the single-cup brewer would help me cut down, and if I drank two cups of really good coffee a day instead of 5-6 cups of /pretty/ good coffee, I’d be just as happy (and awake) and maybe a little bit healthier.
I did get one as a Christmas present and have not been disappointed. It uses near-boiling pressurized water to brew the coffee, which makes the coffee generally a lot tastier than what I made with my regular coffeemaker (an excellent Krups model, which I still keep around for when I need to make a whole pot for guests). Even the lighter blends produce a rich flavor and aroma, and the dark blends (which I prefer) are out of this world.
This machine has two cup size settings, a 7.5 ounce setting (= the size of a standard coffee mug) and a 9.5 ounce setting. Of course it’s the same amount of coffee grounds being distributed, so the 7.5oz setting produces a stronger brew. But I’ve found even the 9.5oz setting is plenty strong for me, and like it very strong. It’s dead simple to use; just put water in the side tank, let it heat, pop in the K-cup, put the cup under the spout, hit the size of cup you want, and the coffee is ready in less than a minute. No cleanup, either.
It’s also quite fun to sample all the different coffee and tea options available in the K-cups. I was surprised to find such a wide selection of blends available.
My sister got the “Special Edition” model Keurig with the digital display on the right side. This allows you to make adjustments to the brewing temperature, adds a timer, and gives you a third, 5.5oz brew size. Given that the 7.5oz size produces quite a strong brew, the 5.5oz size seems unnecessary. And with the brew cycle taking less than one minute, a timer didn’t seem necessary either. In other words I think this “Elite” model is $40 cheaper and just as good.
Enjoy!
