I recently had to replace my old keurig. I had originally thought I wanted one of the larger models, the price was really high. And after all it's just a cup of coffee. So I spent time, 3 days, researching all the different models and figured out which features were most important to me. I decided on the Keurig Express, 42 oz. water reserve, cup size perfect for me, 8, 10, 12. And the size of the machine itself was great. It also had the strength button. It's worth taking the time to see all of what's out there, figure out what you personally want. I love it.
I purchased this out of convenience. To my surprise after nearly 7 months of using it, the descale light would not go out. I'm not too happy about this. I tried the descaling method four times to no avail. I am in the process now of obtaining a replacement. What's upsetting is that I avoided purchasing a Keurig for the longest because of the defects I have heard about. I was happy with my coffee maker for over ten years and I gave it up for convenience. You know what they say... the grass isn't greener on the other side. Just looks good.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I purchased a K Express to replace a much older Keurig coffeemaker in my office. Unfortunately, the K-Express would not work. I contacted Keurig and they helped me try and remedy the issue but ended up having to replace it. The process was fairly simple and the people I spoke with were very friendly. It took a while, but I have my coffee again. Several people around me are happy and safe again.
Even after getting a replacement for the first one that did not work properly we are still dealing with the same disaster. It works well for about every 3rd or 4th cup. It sprays everywhere, leaks water on the counter, tastes like dishwater even with the "strong button" pushed, We have used other's Keurigs many times over the years and have never heard of any of the these issues. This one is soon going to get tossed and we will never purchase another.
My precious K-Express stopped dripping, and when I contacted Keurig, they had me send my previous K-Express to them, and then they sent me a new one. It was a very prompt and convenient process.
