Excellent coffee for busy mornings, but

I use my Keurig everyday and my wife will use it occasionally. She only drinks decaf unlike myself I like the leaded coffee to get my day going. We purchaed a Keurig because of our different tastes in coffee it is much easier than wasting a whole pot of coffee so you can make some decaf. However this is our third machine in 8 months. We use reverse-osmosis (RO) water in the machine which means there are no minerals, particles or chlorine. I flush the machine with purified water weekly and have flushed the second machine with vineagar once as directed in the instructions. Although this shouldn't have been necessary since I am using RO water. I called Keurig customer service when my first machine and they were rude and not helpful. They kept telling me things like the K-cups has too much air. Well, ok I didn't design or make the K-cups. Then they told me Starbucks K-Cups don't work well with their machine. Seems to be a design flaw somewhere. It was not like I was using products that don't go with the machine. I am using K-Cups sold at [@]. Thankfully my original purchase was made at [@] and their return policy is superior. No time limit and no questions asked. Aside from the hastle of boxing it back up and unpacking a new one three times it is a great machine for your daily cup of joe. It is too bad the machine is poorly made because it really makes a great coffee. The bummer is that I would never trust it for a party or mass production. This is when my I pull out my trsuted Farberware percolater. Good luck!
Pros: Easy to use, Multiple Settings, Fast, Accommodates All Cup Sizes, Stylish
Cons: Fragile
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love using my Keurig. I am disappointed that I had to purchase a second one 16 months later. I use the filters but I did not clean it with vinegar every 3-4 months. I will try this with my new one and hopefully I won't have problems with this one...
Pros: Great coffee, Stylish, Easy to use, Multiple Settings, Accommodates All Cup Sizes, Fast
Cons: Replaced 16 months

Won't last the year

What a frustration! When I started working at this office, we had a Plantinum maker that was less than one year old when it stopped working. After some fairly frustrating troubleshooting with Keurig, we were sent another one. Less than a year later, it too has stopped working. (On a day when we had 10 guests in for a meeting, no less.) Again, I went through two rounds of trouble shooting with the Keurig techs before they agreed to send me another. I told them that I did not want another of the same and was told that I'd have to wait for a call from a different Keurig employees before an upgrade could be authorized. That's where I am now. No coffee, and no patience for this model.
Cons: Breaks, Fragile
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Wonderful

We have had our model for 18 months now with very few problems and a much more enjoyable coffee experience. I still grind my own coffee and use a re-usable filter when I want a good cup of tar and the machine accommodates this. We were having a terrible time for several weeks with clogs. Paper clips, vinegar, nothing seemed to work until we discovered if we actually place the k-cup hard enough to puncture the bottom and then closed it we had no more problems. We haven't had a clog since and guests are always excited to choose the kind of coffee they want as well as the strength. I doubt I will ever find coffee as strong as I prefer to use with this machine, but morning prep and the occasional after dinner cup is so much nicer now.
Pros: Fast, Durable, Multiple Settings, Easy to use, Stylish, Accommodates All Cup Sizes
Cons: Can not empty reservoir

I LUV Keurig, HATE this model.

I had mine for 2 years and it started to only brew half a cup on the regular cup and large cup setting. I cleaned it and descaled it. I did everything the manual said to do. I even Googled it. This was a year ago. I just never got around to returning it because I still love Keurig! I just had to brew it twice to get a full cup. I finally returned it for a refund. I will buy the Elite one. We have it at work and it works great.
Pros: Stylish, Accommodates All Cup Sizes, Easy to use, Multiple Settings
Cons: Pricey / Poor Value

Absolutely love it

I have to say that when I first saw the keurig, I thought to myself "who would pay this price for a coffee maker?" I then enjoyed a cup of coffee from this machine. The flavor you get from keurig coffee makers is hands down, so much more flavorful. I normally drink coffee all day and I like the flavored and more bold coffees, while my husband likes the more mild blends. Now that I have a keurig I can have whatever flavor I am in the mood for and he can still have his. I purchased mine 2 days after my first taste from a keurig. My children(young adults) are now drinking coffee too and also enjoy hot chocolate. I use mine when I'm cooking and need boiling water also. Like for instant oatmeal or even regular meals. I tend to be a "penny pincher, and clearance shopper" but this is one purchase that I am willing to splurge on. I can enjoy coffee in the morning, fresh iced tea/coffee in the afternoon and hot chocolate or spiced cider to wind down in the evening. It doesn't get any better.
Pros: Multiple Settings, Easy to use, Fast, Stylish, Durable, Accommodates All Cup Sizes
