I've had more coffee pot's you can't imagine. I purchased about a year
ago the Cuisinart "coffee on demand". Love it because there's no glass
pot, which is one of the reason's I like it, looks and nothing to break.
I just purchased the "Keurig" coffee system, (B-70) That first cup in the morning is there for you in less than seconds, and if you like tea or hot chocolate theres k-cups for that also. The whole thing is you don't have to make a whole pot of coffee when you might only want one, I go to Bj's whole sale for Green mountain or bed bath and beyond to purchase k-cups. On that note I'm making myself a cup of "Hazelnut" These are my two favorite pot's and I've had them all.

I bought my husband the Keurig, and he LOVES it! He very rarely uses his 10 cup machine anymore since he can always make a fresh cup with the new one. You can even buy a filter for it to use your own coffee (he loves Chock Full 'O Nuts) which is cheaper than buying the K Cups all the time. It sells for $14.99.

I bought a Keurig about 4 years ago- last year for some reason it stopped working- So I called the company, they sent me a brand new machine no charge even though my warranty was long over. Way to go Keurig!
I love my Keurig and try to convert anyone who drinks coffee or tea to get one. If you just need a cup of hot water for Cup O Noodles or cooking--it works great for that as well.
NO waste, no mess, no icky residue. I have the model that does the small, medium and travel cup size and it has a nice blue light in the water tank. It can also turn on and turn off the heating element  by setting it to do so.
I Say get it and enjoy it best original $99.00 I ever made.

I'm not a coffee drinker, but my husband swears by his Keurig. He loves the convenience of it. He now rarely uses his carafe coffee maker since he can always brew a fresh cup!

I just bought the Keurig B-60 and I love it! We had a commercial Keurig at work. I recently moved and needed a new coffee maker. I knew I wanted a Keurig. I was a previous "coffee waster" doing 10-12 cups at a time and drinking 2 or 3. I love that I can do one cup at a time! If having guests, I can even make them each a different kind without having to make a whole new pot (or do a combination of tea, coffee, hot chocolate without having to dirty many pots and pans or appliances). And it only takes about a minute or so.
I bought the reusable filter--->awesome invention! Just make sure you grind the coffee a little coarser than standard it recommends. Keurig is I think the only "filter/pod/cup" type single-serve maker that does a reusable filter, which earn it brownie points in my book.
I will never go back to a regular brewer for everyday use

I've had literally dozens of coffee makers over the years. Dozens. The Keurig is the best I've ever had. I like it so much I bought another for our vacation home. If I could travel with it, I would!!
I thought I would use the 'make your own' pod more often, but I find I just use the K-Cups you can purchase on-line or at BedBathBeyond and such...I drink two cups a day and there is NO waste compared to my old coffee pot, where I had to make the full pot just to get the proportions right.
I like the extra bold coffees, but I've tried the medium roasts too and they were good. I love Paul Newman's Special Blend Extra Bold. Timothy's Coffee is horrible. Green Mountain is great.

Love my Keurig hate the Timothy coffee talk about heartburn ! I also love the teas and that fact I can just make hot oatmeal (instant) by using the hot water without a K-cup.

I've never heard of this brand but in the market for a new one. Does it hold the hot water until you need it, is it like a Bunn. Do you add the water to the tank or is it set up to refill on it's own? Sorry don't mean to sound stupid.

it has a resivoir (sp) and you add water as it gets low. its easy to clean here is the link. My best friend bough tone at Linens and things and she is returning it, since its cheaper to get it at Keurig directly. Costco also sells it, we both shop Costoc and she said that directly from Keurig was cheaper.
We have used Kuerig now about 4 years and are stil as happy with it today as we were back then. I orig had the B-40 and then I upgraded to the B-60 about a year ago...ours is on all the time and we have had no problems with it.
