I need a new Keurig - Page 2

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!

@LisaMofSLC check out EverythingKitchens dot com. Fast service don't have any Keurings, but, other name brand coffee makers. Free shp,fast service, no tax to some states. I'm in Texas , so, I don't pay sales tax why I bought my Smeg mixer there.

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.
