Keurig Coffee Maker Review


This week we review the Keurig Coffee Maker

We talked to many people about this coffee maker and even bought one ourselves and everybody is rating this coffee maker 5 out 5 stars or 4 out of 4 stars.

Our rating is 5 out of 5 stars and here is why.
Our concerns at first:  When we first saw how this thing worked we feared it would be too expensive to use the K-cups as these are needed to make coffee.   Each K-cup is like a capsule similar to cream you would get at a coffee shop where you tear open the top and pour your cream in.  However with K-cups you keep them sealed and put the k-cup in the top opening (see the chrome like silver lever above the cup in the picture) and as you set the k-cup in a needle like piece of metal pokes the k-cup from the bottom and sucks the coffee in.

Cost for K-cups:  For example a box of 35 K-cups is about $23.00 so that's not too bad.  That comes out to less than a dollar for a cup of coffee and if you get them at the big box stores such as costco or sams club etc.. the price is even less.  You can also find great deals on ebay with free shipping.

You will have to add cream to MOST of the cups you make as only coffee comes out of the machine..However we found one flavor (and I am sure there are more like this) called CAFE CARAMEL that has the cream built into the k-cup!!  So you don't even need any cream.   For those of you that work at an office without a refrigerator this is very good news for you.  No need to add yucky powdered cream or cream that you have to put on ice.   The Cafe-Caramel k-cups comes with it already inside and you'll get a nice cup of coffee with cream in it.

Also there is a K-cup device that is RE-USABLE!!  That means you can put any kind of coffee in it and use it over and over again so there is no need to buy k-cups.  However since the cost of each cup of coffee is so cheap and the quality is so high we think you are going to like K-cups and they come in so many wonderful flavors!  You can even make tea and hot cocoa so this thing rocks.

We give it a strong 5 out of 5 stars.   The best price we found for the Keurig was at walmart.com  We had to order it online and wait a few days for it to ship to the store but then we went and picked it up.

Get one today you won't regret it.
