I gave up on our Keurig a year or so ago.  I've always preferred an electric percolator, used my mom's hand me down for several years and then replaced it with a Presto that's still going strong.  Even so, it was difficult to get the chemistry right if I ever wanted to make less than a full pot so we'd make that full pot and always throw some away - wasteful.  A few months ago I ordered a Ninja Coffee Bar with the stainless carafe.  We don't make fancy coffee drinks so I didn't feel we needed the model with the built-in frother.  We preferred the thermal carafe so we can have the pot on the table.  DH and I like it quite well.  One full carafe seems to be the right amount for us.  If we want more, another pot is ready in no time at all.  I gifted one to my daughter too and they like it very much as well as it it far less costly to use than their Keurig.

I am on my 2nd Keurig, and still love it. However I said after this one dies, I would try The Ninja Coffee Bar....It has excellent reviews and I think I would really love it......I do still really love the convenience of my Keurig........

If you are going for acceptably cheap, Consumer Reports recommends the 12 cup Hamilton Beach, about 25.00.  For better quality, they recommended a Cuisinart that was about 100.00.  Hope this is right, going from memory as I give my issues away.

Ninja Coffee Bar is on a great sale on Macy's right now! A lot of their applicances are on sale, so you may want to do some price comparisons!

If you've gone through three Keurigs in less than a year, I'd be contacting Keurig. That should NOT be happening. Maybe you got a model with a problem.
