    I don't like the coffee--too strong for me and tastes bitter on the ones I have had.

    My dauughter bought me one for xmas. I like it. I too hit the large button 2 x for a large cup to go. I don't drink much coffee. Just first thing in morning and then I drink Brisk tea or water.

Here we have various coffee's teas, hot cocoa in the winter and ours has the ice tea feature which is wonderful! I have boxes of sweet tea and sweet peach tea. I'd highly recommend it
    WOW, I didn't know it had an ice tea function an you can make single servings, do you have to purchase their products? Thank you for the info.

    DH received one for his last B-day from DS#1 and family. They have one, also bought one for their DD to take to college but they aren't big coffee drinkers, tea is what they have most of the time. DH on the other hand is a big coffee drinker, he makes a big Mr Coffee pot each morning, brings a therm cup of coffee with him when he goes into the garage, goes out on errands, etc. Mid afternoon he switches to tea - since it's summer it's ice tea. I've yet to see him make himself a cup in the Keurig, think he doesn't want to put his glasses on to read the directions, LOL! May in Jersey

    My Mom purchased hers from here and she loves hers.

    It is convenient, but NOT economical. We are considering returning to the old coffeemaker.

    I'd love one but don't know if we could afford the machine or the individual coffee packets.

    For a one-cupper you can put a regular coffee filter in a mesh colander, sit it on a mug and while holdin the colander handle just pour water through slowly. That's our version of Cowboy Coffee.

    I have had two different size models and just love both of them. The coffee pods can get expensive unless you watch for the adds however if you counter the price with the amount of coffee you throw out when you make a full pot and only drink half of it there really is not a difference. Not to mention that you get a FRESH cup each time it is really worth it. Unless it is just you drinking coffee and you only drink a few cups at each sitting I would say get one with the water reservior on it. It saves the refilling it each time you want a cup of coffee. I LOVE LOVE LOVE mine.

    Yes we have one at home and at my office at work. Great coffee maker. There are tons of different coffees, teas, and hot chocolates to choose from and you can buy an attachment that allows you to use your own ground coffee in it as well. So, if you think that the K-cups are too expensive, you can use your own coffee and still just get one cup at a time. Love it!
