which new Keurig machine? Mine just broke!

[Anonymous]

I am looking at amazon for a new Keurig machine but there are so many, and I can't really see a difference among them to tell the truth… Currently I have a Keurig V cup and we use it at least 6x/day, more on weekends - MIL drinks LOTS of coffee.

I also have a Nespresso, which I love btw.. but I need a Keurig for the run of the mill, watery coffee. I want a K cup this time because the V cup has been very hard to find. I am actually glad the thing broke and I have an excuse to ditch it and buy a new one.
Can you recommend your keurig machine?

Get the Mr. Coffee version. It's cheaper and a hell of a lot sturdier. http://www.amazon.com/Mr-Coffee-BVMC-KG6-001-Powered-Technology/dp/B00CJ1HF7O/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1418951249&sr=8-2&keywords=mr+coffee+keurig

Im on my 2nd keurig & when it dies Im not getting another one. I got my old drip Mr. Coffee back out, works like a champ. I can adjust the strength & cup size, tastes better. Probably not the answer you were looking for...

Just stop with the landfill fodder.

^You know they sell biodegradable pods and a refillable cartridge, right?

I heard a rumor that the new Keurigs will not accept "unlicensed" pods and that includes those refillable ones.

The refillable one is made by Keurig for the express purpose of using coffee they don't sell. How is that unlicensed?

Agree.

Anyone worry about the bpa in the pods?

Not me. What about you?

Maybe your machine is subject to the current Keurig recall, and you can get a replacement.

But, have to agree with the earlier post. Get a French press and stop contributing to the landfill.

Keurig will give a free one if you tell them it is broken.

They make money on K cups so I think they will give a free one either way.

I just got my first Keurig - a K cup officepro. I LOVE it!! I can't believe that dh thought to give this to me. I hadn't asked for one but I've been wanting one for a long time.

I just finished a pumpkin spice latte. Sooo good.

I agree with the landfill comments. It's a waste. They just want you to keep buying the cups. Making regular coffee is not rocket science...

True. And read up on these machines, the closed loop water tank creates a disgusting petri dish to make all kinds of horribly rancid dreck in the tank can't be drained or aired out.

For example (this is not the post I am referring to above), you cannot clean a Keurig to the standards mentioned here since you can't subject it to boiling water for more than a minute and you can't air dry the tank and internal parts:

That's reason enough to not get one, the wastefulness and mediocre quality of the brew, etc., are just added reasons.
