I need a new Keurig

LisaMofSLC — Sun, 26 May 2019 16:17:09 GMT

Well, my 6 year old Keurig personal brewer finally bit the dust. RIP. I am currently using a 5 cup drip, but would like a new Keurig. Problem is the new ones don't seem to have great reviews. I liked the idea of the recently shown smaller footprint version, but bad reviews scared me off. I need suggestions for a new brewer. Doesn't even need to be a Keurig as long as it uses K-cups. Or owners of the smaller version, do you like it? Thanks for any replies.

I have the small Keurig that was a TSV. I really like it. You add water for each cup which I like. The coffee is very hot and delicious. It takes up very little space. I highly recommend it. It is also less expensive!.

I have the newest model, the Elite which I purchased brand new on Ebay for $80.00. It is the best Keurig that I have owned.

I have one I recently purchased on the Q, it has a slim profile and is a single cup brewer. The resevoir is removable, but I just bring the water to the brewer and poor it in, less likely to spill it that way. It isn't as fast as my multi-cup brewer, but it doesn't have that code reader that only lets you brew "approved" k-cups, so I can live with the slower speed. It does brew at 192F, hotter than my old single-cup, which I donated, and also has a strong setting, so it's good for flavored k-cups as well. I will look up the item number, come back, edit this post, and give it to you, Sestra44. Okay, the item number is K49111. I also thought of one more thing, this isn't the most quiet Keurig I've ever owned, but I can live with it, it doesn't drown out the radio or anything.

I purchased the TSV Keurig mini that was offered last Nov., I think it was. It died on me in March. Since the 30 day return was past on QVC, I called Keurig directly and I had a new Keurig at no cost to me within 4 days and was told to toss the old one.So far, so good. I only drink one cup of coffee a day and this mini works well for my needs.It only takes a couple of minutes to make a cup. I'm hoping it continues to work better than the first one.

I have the Keurig Mini+ that was a TSV last fall. Since I seldom drink more than 1 cup a day it’s perfect for me. And I love the fact that no water sits in the tank-what you put in comes right out. I always wonder what the inside of those water ranks look like-yuk!

Anyhow I like the Keurig but if anything happens to it I would get a Hamilton Beach Flex Brew. That uses K-cups and also has a side where you can brew a pot of coffee. That would be nice for days when you have guests or just need more coffee.

Hi!

I love the Bunn MyCafe individual. It’s small, uses tap water, and quiet.

You can use Kcups, ground coffee, ten bags or tea leaves.

It makes good, hot coffee.

I ordered the Keurig K-Mini Plus Coffee Maker with MyKCup that was TSV last fall and I am as happy as can be. I make 1 or 2 cups per day maximum so the size is perfect. I do not use K-cups, I buy Starbucks Sumatra on the bean, grind and use the MyKCup for a great tasting cup of coffee. The amount of ground coffee you use in the MyKCup plus the "strong" feature will also determine how strong your cup. People's reviews complain about not being able to make this machine work, the instructions are less than helpful and the MyKCup has to fit into the top just right, and the explanation is poor. I had trouble getting it to fit until I slowed down and paid attention to how it was designed to fit into the machine. (Make sure the horizontal edge is facing you for it to fit into the machine.) Once you figure out how to insert the MyKCup correctly in the top, what a great cup of coffee this machine will produce. The sound it makes brewing lasts about a minute and not worthy of complaint. I really love the "strong "feature, it is very hot so quite an improvement over the older "mini" style.

If they sent you a 20% off code from HSN buy it over there.

don't know if they have them since I don't drink coffee, but, 20% usually gets my attention on big ticket items.

I have a Breville and I love it! (I believe it is the upper end of the Keurig line) I find it ver reliable, easy to use and clean and a good warranty.

Thank you for all the replies. I happened to see a Mr Coffee machine that used K Cups, in the grocery store last Christmas, on sale, and was sorely tempted to buy one to store away in case. Sorry I didn't. I tend not to replace UNTIL something stops working, because I would hate to get rid of a reliable machine for one that will quit working in 6 months. I think 6 years was an honourable life for my single cup Keurig, and with only two major cleanings.

I'll rwad thorugh your replis more carefully to see the recommends. Thanks again!

I've been using my space-saver Keurig for several months now...since it was first presented, I believe. I use it every day. I love it. Depending on which K cup I'm using, sometimes I elect the option to make it stronger. IMHO, it make a really good cup of very hot coffee. My previous Keurig mini also worked well and the coffee was hot, but not nearly as hot as with this slender version. I use a spouted measuring cup and pour the water directly into the reservoir. Hope it continues to work well, since I love the narrower footprint.

@LisaMofSLC Are you sure it’s a goner? I thought my first one was but cleaned the needle bit and descaled it and got several more years from it. (I might have done more. I don’t remember.) Have you called their customer service or watched online videos?

When I thought the first was gone I bought a new one. I’m finally using that one. If I needed to buy one today, I’m not sure which one I would get Good luck!

I cleaned the unit and it seemed to work, but one morning, it made like half a cup of coffee. What a mess when I pulled the K-cup out lol. So it did that even after cleaning. After so many reviews I have read about this model, I felt fortunate to have one that lasted 6 years.

We have hard water so my Keurigs really don't last long. We only use the Keurig Mini (one cup at a time). We have to replace ours about every year. I have a new one now and bought a spare since we found it at such a good price on Amazon.

My Two Keurigs both bought the dust a few days apart. I replaced one with a Keurig elite model...on sale at Walmart $129...for the slate color only... $20 more for the same model and color at Target.

Two days later at our summer place, the second Keurig needed replaced. I went to the local Walmart and bought a model that has the same features as the Elite....can't really tell the difference, but that one was $75. This one was Silver.

Both are wonderful and so quiet. The coffee is hot and there are five cup sizes, plus a strong brew button and ice coffee feature and hot water only button.

The two older Keurigs I had were probably close to 15 years old.

My husband uses a large tall travel mug, so the single serve models won't work for us.

I recently purchased the new Keurig Cafe and love it. It’s a little pricey but is also a espresso machine.
