A handy way to enjoy a coffee habit

Have this about a year and haven't looked back. I bought this thinking I'd only take it out and use it when company came, but I kept it out and never packed it up again. I can't be without it. The biggest disadvantage you hear about from others is the 'noise.' I don't know what the fuss is all about. I have no sleeping babies in the house, and if I did, it is only seconds long in duration. Makes me wonder why anyone would even consider this a negative worth mentioning. Maybe one day I'll 'move up' to the Platinum one, less noisy I hear, but I have no complaints with this one, so why hurry? Even tho' it has programmable capabilities to make your morning coffee b/4 you wake up, starting the coffeemaker COLD in the morning, it still only takes a minute for coffee to drip after pressing the "ON" button! What more can one ask for. Recently looked at the instruction manual again and realized I should have demineralized the unit for maintenance w/white vinegar--so don't forget that like I did. It really takes care of itself otherwise, has never given me a day's problem. I only wish that everything in life was as simple!
Pros: Accommodates All Cup Sizes, Stylish, Durable, Multiple Settings, Easy to use
I wrote Keurig about this maker but got no response. Do not buy it if they have not done something about the vibration and noise that you can hear outside.
the best coffee maker i have ever owned!!! and to those who say to noisey?? its brewing at 192 degrees in one minute. there might be a small rumble but not noisey. All in all fantastic!!!!!
I brew regular in the AM and have a cup of decaf in the PM. The largest ounce choice in my mid-level brewer is only 2/3 a travel mug, but that is not a huge issue. Despite the jack hammer loud, grinding pump, I like the coffee and convenience so well I bought my mother the same machine - her machine is whisper quiet???
It is a great and convenient coffee maker, especially with the filter (extra purchase) so that there is not so much garbage (and costs less per cup). The only negative is that none of our tall to-go coffee mugs fit under the dispenser.
Pros: Durable, Easy to use
Cons: Limited Cup Sizes
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Special Edition Brewing System is designed and UL approved for household use. Keurig recommends customers use Keurig brewers consistent with their intended use.
Ok, so I wasn't too thrilled about getting one of these. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised by the ease and most importantly the taste of the coffee. The people that say it's TOO NOISY are ridiculous. Obviously they don't grind coffee and they probably drink Folgers®. The pump makes noise but nothing like a grinder. Noise is a Non-Issue! The important issues are the ease of use and the taste and quality of the coffee. This was a good buy and the wide distribution of the product is good enough to find a wide variety of K-Cups. Go out and get one it is a good machine.
Pros: Stylish, Durable, Easy to use, Multiple Settings
awesome coffee maker coffee selection for kcups is plentiful and most are very good all samples included in box were all good except one organic coffee easy to clean will never use another coffee maker again brewer is not silent but not an issue
Pros: Stylish, Multiple Settings, Accommodates All Cup Sizes, Easy to use, Durable
I LOVE using this coffee maker. A perfect cup everytime - whenever I want it. Noisy?? Sounds sort of like an espresso machine, but not as loud. I've recommended this same system to several friends, who are also enjoying one now!
