complaints, on the internet, about them.

The weak link on the Keurig machines seems to be the fill pump. My first one lasted about 11 months before it became terminal. They replaced it under warranty, and this one is now nearly two years old. It gets used only on the weekends, as we have a drip pot upstairs we use while getting ready for work during the week. The Keurig only gets RO filtered water, so it's not a water contamination problem in my case.

When this one goes I'll probably investigate other compatible brands. I really like some of the coffees and the fresh taste of the K-cups. Sumatran Reserve and Mahogany are two of my favorites.

We like the k-cups, but not the keurig-branded machines. There are other
brands of hardware for k-cups that are more reliable.

Apparently H*a*r*r*o*l*d the A*S*S*H*O*L*E (FlaJim) is working OT here
trying to stir things up. Poor little feeb... :)

We use ours a lot, also in the RV. But I use these:

http://www.amazon.com/SOLOFILL-CHROM.../dp/B00DR0N8CM

There are different makes and models, but that one is the best I've used. Then I can buy whatever
coffee I want.

Harry hasn't bragged about his much lately. I reckon it's 'cause he's making such a strong-hearted
attempt to keep his posts on topic, or at least sociable.

I have had an assortment of full sized drip machines. They are all
about the same IMHO. In a pinch I have just used a strainer with the
paper filter and slowly poured hot water through it. Same stuff comes
out.



I drink two cups of coffee a day, usually, and never more than three.

We went through several Keurig machines, all failed way too early.
Warrantee doesn't mean **** on a Sunday Morning...

We use the Bunn single cup maker, it's built just as well as out Bunn
Coffee maker...

Well, have you ever tried the home version of a Bunn. 170 degree water
makes a difference...

It's not our only coffee maker, so an outage would be a slight inconvienence.

The Bunn we have has had it's own issue. There's a rubber gasket in the top well that dries out and cracks, causing water leaks when filling. Already replaced it once.

Damn landfill filling coffee dispenser! What a non green device. Hell, my
Cruisinart insulated coffee carafe maker, will make a 4 cup pot, for less
price than one K-cup, without a disposable plastic package.

Must be a Navy/CG/IBM thing.I drink about a quart of coffee a day but

I make it fairly weak by JPS standards. If I get a designer coffee I

want half a cup and fill it up with water.

I used to like 7-11 coffee before they tried to be Starbucks.

I'm just the opposite. I have 1-1/2 to 2 travel mugs every morning of good, rich, and strong coffee. Occasionally I'll get a third from a really nice East Indian girl I work with who keeps a french press in her office. That'll put hair on your chest! :-)
