This has been a great coffee maker up until it is time to descale. My last two coffee makers that I attempted to descale using the Keurig solution and following directions to the T started smoking from the top. ALOT of smoke and then shut down. Both were extremely hot to the touch and would not restart. Fortunately, customer service is very good and replaced both units. My advice is if you are going to go with this particular model do not do the descale process. My coffee maker worked fine up until that point, I just got tired of looking at the descale now message. I also use filtered water.
I love Keurig machines but definitely not this model . I have had this model replaced 3 times, it dies only a few months after purchase. Very disappointed
This could be a great coffee maker. I like the big reservoir and multi-stream brewing. I also like the ability to customize your brew and the ice coffee setting.
However, all those positives does not make up for the fact that I've had to replace the brewer four times in the 12 months I've owned it. Keurig has been great giving me a new one each time, but it's a huge pain doing so. That means each one is only lasting months when they should last for years. Too bad on such a nice machine. A higher priced model such as this should last longer.

This is our fourth one we have had over the years, and can attest to the fact that this line of coffee makers has improved drastically since the first one we purchased. We used the last one at least once daily for over two years, then it went out but we didn’t hesitate to replace it with another one.
