I use this machine every day. I have been very pleased with the quiet heating up, brewing and the easy, programmable options. The machine I had before was very loud when warming the water and brewing - was afraid of waking the family. With this machine, no more worries - or noise!The only issue I find is the difference in taste between a traditional coffee maker (using your own coffee) and the "My K-Cup." The flavors are less prominent than when used with other brewers (including pod brewers). If you require a richer, bolder taste, you will want to go for dark roasted coffees for use with the My K-Cup.Great value for the money. [...]
Pros: Easy to use, Accommodates All Cup Sizes, Multiple Settings, Stylish
Bought as a Thanksgiving gift for my mom's house. Between the 4 people that live there, they drink about 8-10 cups a day between coffee and tea reason why I got them the unit. It is the BEST as it was easy and not messy to use - BUT - now it's dying out. They clean 2-3 times a month with the white vinegar process as recommended but two weeks ago, it stopped dripping the right amount of water and makes a horrible choking & gurgling sound. I got them the Platinum Unit base on the amount of coffee/tea they drink. With that said, I still love the unit JUST WISH I can get it fix as I am not sure I am willing to pay the high price again to last for just another 6 months.
Pros: Easy to use, Stylish, Quite, Accommodates All Cup Sizes, Multiple Settings
Honestly, I love keurig coffee, however, it's getting the machine to work for more then a few months that bothers me. Normally customer service is wonderful, but today, I spent a hour on the phone with four different people who refused to help me. I finally got them to agree to replace it (this is my fourth brewer all with the SAME problem - the pump stops pumping) and they said they were doing it as a favor to me...well Keruig - thanks for the favor guys. The next favor I am going to do for you, is take my case to the attorney general as well as the BBB because I think there are some shady practices going on here. Especially where we all have the same issues. I urge everyone to do the same and lets put an end to this foolishness, un-necessary stress and bad business practices once and for all. Would I ever recommend them to anyone?? NOT after today - that's for darn sure!!
Pros: Stylish, Multiple Settings, Accommodates All Cup Sizes
I loved this Keurig. Only used 2-3 times per week. After 16 months the screen started flickering and it wouldn't brew - just stated brewing on screen, but nothing happened. After two days of this, screen went blank and machine did nothing. Very disappointing for a high cost machine. Warranty only one year. Keurig to give me discount off new platinum model, but not a substantial amount. Sounds like others had same issue.
Pros: Easy to use, Multiple Settings, Accommodates All Cup Sizes
We purchased our coffee maker in November 2009; by January 2010 we were having the same issues as everyone else. I contacted Keurig and they sent us a replacement. Here it is May 2010 and we are having the same issues. The coffee maker may or may not brew a cup of coffee, may or may not over flow, may or may not, may or may not, may or may not-you get my point. So now we have to try and get a replacement or buy a new one. Not sure about other consumers but forking out $$$ every three months is not an option. I really like the Keurig-not this model!!
so far everything is great! have to flush it (run it without a k-cup) if you use a choclate k cup or if you see coffee grinds in it. it should not have coffee grinds in it. just flush it. it cleans easy, again so far so good...
Pros: Stylish, Easy to use, Durable, Accommodates All Cup Sizes, Multiple Settings
Cons: None right now
I would recommend this to a friend!
