Keurig Coffee Makers?

Anyone have one of these? What do you think of them? I am not huge coffee drinker (only one cup a day, max) and DH only drinks steamed milks and hot chocolate so I am wondering if this might work for us. Thoughts on them?

Re: Keurig Coffee Makers?

  • We got one for my Dad for his b-day a couple years ago. I must say it is pretty awesome!!! If you only drink one cup at a time it would really make a lot of sense, rather than brewing a whole pot (or the 4 cup minimum). The Keurig doesn't make anything with milk in them though, so it would just be for you not DH. The tassimo and maybe other machines do drinks with milk products in them, but the regular coffee is gross from the Tassimo (in my opinion!)
  • I would go with the tassimo just because it is so much easier to find refills and get different choices in beverages(cappicinos, hot chocolates etc). My mom has the keurig and I got her some refills for her birthday, I went to I don't even know how many stores probably 6 and only found a few at Canadian Tire by fluke and they were only coffee!!!

    I haven't had issues finding "K-cups" they even sell them at future shop! They sell them at Home Outfitters too. 

  • We have to tassimo and it's great for one or 2 cups a day. Of course once we got it DH started drinking way more. He loves to play with his toy. haha.

  • I have one of these, specifically the Special edition model from Costco. You can buy the refills at FutureShop, Costco, BestBuy, Home Outfitters, Timothy's, the Bay and Sears, as well as order them online at some places.  You can only make Coffee, Tea and Hot Chocolate since you can't use milk with this machine HOWEVER at Home Outfitters you can buy a Milk Frother from Keurig (they go for aprrox. 90$) to make cappaccinos and lattes. Also at Home Outfitters you can also buy Flavorings such as Caramel, Hazelnut, Vanilla, peppermint and Chocolate, and possibly others from Torani. I love my machine and i use it almost everyday. I barely drank coffee before but i look forward to it when I get home from work.
  • The only place we have close to our area is Future shop and they didn't have any when I went to check!! It sucked cuz I was looking everywhere for my Mom's bday. She had just broken her leg and couldn't get out of the house for things like that!
