 Exactly what we wanted November 17, 2009

We needed a one cup coffee maker for our home because we were wasting pot after pot when brewing based on different schedules. I did a fair amount of research and decided that the seemingly superior mechanics combined with the outstanding coffee selection made the Keurig the better choice (versus Tassimo) although the other systems do have the ability to froth milk we thought the coffee selection was a bigger factor.
We have had the B70 for a month now and have made a hundred or so cups of coffee through it and we could not be happier!
It's a great machine that delivers an outstanding cup of coffee.
The xtra bold kcups contain 30% more coffee and if you're brewing a bug cup (travel mug) and like it on the strong side look at those selections first. The coffee people organic is hard to beat. We also love Timothy's xtra bold offerings.
A great added bonus is the ability to make tea and iced tea, we drink as much teacas coffee and the selection of kcup teas in very good. All in all this is one of my favorite purchases in many years and I plan to buy another for my office!!

We have owned our Keurig B70 for 21 months. It has performed like a champ. I turned my folks onto it, and theirs has worked perfectly, as well. We brew about 6-10 cups of coffee every day over the course of the day and my wife and I drink coffee at different times, so a drip coffee maker just didn't work for us. We use large mugs and get one 12oz and one 4oz brew from each k-cup, so 16oz at a time. The coffee is always piping hot, even when mixed with cold half/half or heavy cream, and depending on which k-cup brand/type the coffee can be mild to very strong even with 16oz from a single k-cup. Because we love it, we put up with the fact that ours is somewhat louder than usual and tends to vibrate more than usual. We actually have placed it on a cut to size vibration absorbing mat, since we have granite counter tops, which accentuate the vibration. Adding the mat really helped settle it down. For the first 14 months we had a lot of scale buildup and I found that, simply running white vinegar through the machine(30-60oz of vinegar/water at a time) would clean it out, I only had to do it twice and the scale never affected performance. Based on that, I would say it is very low maintenance even with bad water. I can't imagine going back to filters, grounds, and all the cleaning of a traditional coffee maker again. Some may complain that they don't like the coffee(there are some k-cups I find rather displeasing myself). I have had better cups of coffee from an espresso machine(Americano) with a skilled Barista, however, I think the coffee tastes very good and I am a little particular. There is quite a large selection available and if you shop during sales you can get the k-cups for as little as .20-.40 each or from Keurig direct for as little as .47 per k-cup at regular pricing with membership(free shipping factored in). The speed and convenience has saved us many stops at Starbucks or their ilk and no doubt our keurig has paid for itself several times over.

good coffee, no mess, lots of variety
easy to make/grind your own beans with the k-cup ( you should use the modification and cut out an old use k-cup and place it in the tub to keep the water seaping a little bit longer.) Also you can re-use old k-cups about5-6 times with your own grinds. Both has been explained in the older reviews and works well for people who like stronger cups!
 Wonderful for coffee and tea...not so much for hot cocoa. November 6, 2009

I first bought a Keurig Brewer for my office. I loved it so much, I had to have one for my home also. It is perfect for a family. We don't all drink the same hot drinks. I like coffee, my teenage daughter prefers hot tea. My hubby's favorite is hot cocoa. The Keurig allows each of us to have the hot drink of our choice.
The features I like on the B70: four choices of cup size, auto off, programable on and off times, and large water reservoir. The Keurig Brewer I have at my office is a smaller version. Would I again pay extra for the B70 to get a few more bells and whistles? Probably not. I am happy with the B40 at the office. I think as long as you buy a model with a water reservoir, you will be happy. I don't think, however, you will be happy with the smallest model where you have to add water each time you brew a cup of coffee.
One disappointment we have is the way cocoa brews. It tends to come out weak. We opened a cup after it brewed and found most of the cocoa mix had not even gotten wet. My hubby brews his cocoa, then opens the cup and pours any extra powder or syrup into his cup. It's not much trouble, and he doesn't seem to mind the extra step, but I would. That is the reason I gave the machine 4 stars instead of 5. If you don't drink cocoa, consider this product a 5.
Another thing, since we are making coffe, flavored teas, and cocoa all with the same machine, we brew a cup of hot water after each use to rid the machine of any left over flavors. Only takes a minute, and it keeps the brewer fresh for the next user. We use water filtered through a Brita filter in our Keurig. It's convenient to have a pitcher of filtered water sitting nearby the coffee brewer.
I like the Keurigs so much, I plan to give several away to family and friends this Christmas!
Best Home Brewer November 4, 2009
Clive Saxor (Cupertino, CA)
Got this last year been using it everyday since. It brews very constantly and has plenty of coffee selection to keep me happy. I have 2 minor issue with the brewer. 1. when you store the unit there is no way for the water in the inner tank to be drained. 2. the quiet brew it isn't really quiet. but it is not as loud as B60 that is for sure. Had they allow the unit to be completely drain of water when storing, i would have given it 5 stars.
