It lasted for 2 years then just stopped working. If you don't leave it on all the time you risk it breaking after the warranty period, then you are out of luck. Having to buy a new one every two years is poor workmanship.
Just replaced an older Keurig that had died after a couple years. The new one, with its "bigger reservoir" will display "Ready to Brew" (blue light solid, not blinking. you put in a K-cup and select the size and walk away to do something else and come back and it has drawn down to the "Add Water" level, blue light blinking and you have to add water before it makes the coffee. If it's ready to brew, it's ready to brew. This is a total pain. why make this a new feature? It's not like the reservoir is empty. way to make a product worse!
Love the being able to have a hot cup of coffee, cider, tea, and hot chocolate at finger tips. Fast and makes a great cup of coffee.... drawback for me is the expense of the K-Cups. Also, had to purchase a filtering water pitcher in addition to the filter in coffee maker. We are on well water and had some problems with filters in the coffee maker clogging. After talking with customer service we corrected the problem. If we have to purchase bottled water that would run the expense of use even higher. We drink a lot of coffee! I would recommend to anyone who only drinks 1-2 cups a day and has an inline water filtering system. Not the best item for people on fixed income.
Pros: Stylish, Multiple Settings, Accommodates All Cup Sizes, Fast, Easy to use
I received this brewer as a gift. I already own a 12 cup coffee maker and an espresso machine so I didn't think I would use it. I do use it as does my non coffee drinkers in the family. This has been a great addition to my kitchen.
Pros: Easy to use, Multiple Settings, Accommodates All Cup Sizes, Fast
I bought this brewer two years ago and it has worked well up till a few days ago when it just stopped working (pump). I like the k-cup system in that it is easy, fast and clean compared to grinding my own coffee. For the price of this brewer I am a little disappointing. I will have to see if i can replace the pump, or try a different brewing system. I have purchased a k-cup french press to survive on till I figure out what to do.
