Kitchen

Just saw Melissa Epps repping a candy company so thought that was strange. Then looked up Keurig coffeemakers and there are none listed. What happened???

I was wondering the same thing.  Last week my Keurig died on me after 8 years.  I looked here and there were none.  I ended up to BBB and getting the K475 there.

I was just looking at mine and thinking about putting it in the trash!  I gave up coffee and my kitchen is so small!!!

I wondered where they went, too...Keurigs was one of the Q's mainstays...we could count on a TSV often....did they have a falling out...I knew I should have bought a second one to keep on hand...

I suspect Keurig can't afford to give QVC the price deals they once did. Keurig is really hurting financially, plus - after QVC pushing nothing but the 2.0 machines, Keurig is now pretty much abandoning them and going back to their old machines - which can be bought dirt cheap in many places. Several other non-Keurig machines that use all K-cups are also out there, cheaper. And Keurig no longer has a "newest, bestest" machine to demo.

Purchased keurig 50 with 48 kcups included at BJ'S for 100 dollars. Nice machine.

The Keurig Green Mountain coffee company was acquired by a private equity firm not too long ago, and the private investors might not, for one reason or another, want to include QVC as part of their business plan.  The company owns a boatload of different coffee brands and seems to still be doing a good business in selling machines and coffee pods through many different retail outlets, from what I can see in stores and retail ads.

I ditched a big Keurig a long time ago but really do like and use the small single-cup model all the time.  It hasn't  failed yet, and I'll try to get another just like it if it does.

I had a large premium model for 7+ years, then downsized to the K250. Now am stuck with a restrictive machine and Keurig has changed their business tactics yet again, hanging those who bought 2.0 Keurigs out to dry. For that reason alone, the next time I need a new machine that uses K-cups it will likely not be a Keurig or Cuisinart machine. I have and use Freedom Clips but they don't last forever and when I've used my last one ... 😡

They are everywhere just not at QVC.  Kohl's, BBB, Walmart, Amazon, Lowe's, Sam's Club and on and on.  I think the market is saturated with them and you can get coupons and discounts.

Even Best Buy sells them as well as the high end kitchen stores that I've been in.
