I loved my original Keurig brewer but it finally died last year. I've gone through three of the Keurig 2.0 brewers in less than a year and am now done with Keurigs. I purchased a Cuisinart brewer a few months ago and it works great - but I'm not thrilled with the coffee it brews. It seems weak no matter how much coffee grounds I use.

Anyone have any recommendations for a coffee maker that brews nice, strong flavorful coffee?  I only drink regular coffee - so I'm not really interested in the machines that make the fancy coffee drinks. Thanks!

My older sister loves the Bunn coffee maker; brews in 2 minutes. They grind their own coffee beans. DH and I are hooked on Keurig and when one conks out we get another.

We bought a Kitchen Aid coffee maker 2 years ago and it makes great coffee. I drink it black, so it's got to be good and I like it very hot and this coffee maker does it right. In full disclosure, I don't make the coffee, my husband does and he loves the KA coffee maker.

I love my Keurig and have had my machine for 7 years now.  I only use bottled water in it and will take a needle and clean out the little hollow piercer that you bring down onto the pod every once in awhile.....and even with bottled water will change the filters.  It continues to work like a champ.

I love my ninja and only use it to make a regular cup. Makes it nice and rich and flavorful. Also, the cuisinart grind and brew makes a really good pot.

Another vote for Ninja Coffee Bar. I love mine, I kicked the Keurigs to the curb a long tIme ago.

I have gotten incredibly good coffee from Bunn.  The water is always hot.  Most resturants use them.

What about an old-school electric percolator?

I love my Ninja too.

We've had Bunn for years, then when the last one wore out we tried the KA one, it was fine, but I missed the Bunn, so when that KA quit, we went back to the Bunn.  Love that hot tank it has in the back - always have hot water for tea, and the coffee we buy is always organic beans, and it makes great coffee.
