Keurig K-Express Single Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee Maker, 3 Brew Sizes, Strong Button Feature, 42oz Removable Reservoir, Black

Why did you pick this product vs others?:This machine is very easy to use and operates quickly. When I stated in the title that I love this machine, I meant it! Why? Well, for starts, I have spent many years and money trying to get a good blend of coffee without having to spend too much time. Although some expressos and other machines I spent money on, I have tried many types from general coffee filter types to cappuccino types. I admit I am not a pure coffee enthusiast as some are, however, I do enjoy a great tasting cup of coffee that can give me a boost when needed.With all that said, I can go on into details about my history, but to make it shorter, I finally found a machine that has decent settings for quantity and intensity with a fast delivery of coffee when needed. I was a bit skeptical until I watched a few videos regarding this machine, and now it is my priority machine for a good quick cup of coffee.. THANK YOU! I won't go into details about the exact type of pods I use, but I have really enjoyed the Starbucks med. roast coffee. Anyhow, Each to their own, because people have many different aspects on what they may consider as a great coffee machine, but this is one Keurig brand I will hopefully be with for some tine. Noise level:nice and quiteTaste:makes great tasting coffee pods

Very nice coffee maker .. we bought it to replace the slim mini. It’s got a nice reservoir on the back. You’ll find yourself filling it quite often… If you have a couple of coffee drinkers in the family.. however I find that more sanitary then continuing to pour cups in at a time ..sometimes people just rinse the cup and pour the water in and that’s not good either.. so you want the little reservoir for sure. You don’t wanna overfill the coffee grounds ..if you’re using the reusable cups because it’ll run very slow. And also if you do buy the reusable k cups, you wanna make sure that they’re open on the bottom and on the side because otherwise it doesn’t work out well. If you use the pre-main ones they work perfectly.. makes really great tasting coffee. I like this particular one because you choose.. 8/10/12 ounces whichever you prefer. As well as a button to make it stronger if you like. And the price ..you cannot go wrong with the price on this one… and actually this particular one that we ordered, we found one in the used like new where people just return them because they don’t want them or it’s a broken box absolutely perfect maker ..nothing wrong with it. if you get the chance to go that way, I highly recommend it

I like this K cup brewer. It is heavier than I expected, so must have some quality materials. I brewed with a stainless K cup, and taste was excellent. Brew was fast as well on 12 ounces. I highly recommend this machine over a drip maker. I expect stronger coffee with fine grind as well. No need to buy toss away K cup expensive pods. Just buy a stainless and use espresso grind for strong, or drip grind for regular.Update: a typical stainless reusable k cup holds 11 grams of coffee. A can off coffee will yield 61 cups in the reusable k cup. If you buy throw away k cups 10 pods will cost about $10.00! For almost the same price you brew 61 k cups. The toss away k cups of any brand is a giant rip off. The taste of Folgers was no different to me than toss away Dunkin coffee. I guess if people pay $8.00 for candy coffee at a drive through, the toss away at a dollar a cup looks good. For me, a stainless k cup and canned coffee saves $$$ and tastes better. I took a toss away k cup apart. Coffee was only in 3/4 of the plastic k cup. What a rip.I use paper filters in my stainless K cup pod. Simple and totally recyclable. I just fill the paper filter to the top, then push on the stainless k cup pod cover. No need to pack the coffee. I tried packing and there was no difference in flavor. I actually think the loose pack grounds in the stainless k cup has a more robust flavor.So far, the brewer flawlessly works great. I wish I would have bought one when they first came available. What a great product.

Did it make me coffee? Yes. Did I expect it to last longer for the price? Yes. Am I upset? Not really. Did I do the descaling? Yes, a few times. The last time I did the descaling it just didn't work and that's when I knew it was toast. I don't make a ton of coffee. I have two cups a day in the morning maximum. So that's on average 2 k-cups running through it for one year and then it was toast. I guess I expected a little more from a name brand and me finally moving on to what felt like an upgrade from a traditional old coffee pot (which I was also tired of descaling and replacing). Maybe it's just science and the way the mechanisms deliver the coffee and the parts are going to wear out the same no matter what. It lasted about the same as long as the cheapest coffee pot I've ever purchased.When it worked though, wow I loved it! It was fast and it looked nice in the kitchen like I had something premium rather than just your cheapest coffee pot.
