Which Keurig to get?

Ashcan Bill · 11-07-2011, 01:23 PM

So Eric, did you ever pick up the B70? If so, any thoughts on it?

My wife wants me to pick one of these up, but reading through all the Keurig reviews, I'm a little doubtful about them. Seems like an awful lot of people are having them break after a few months. Likewise, there are bad reviews on the Cuisinarts.

Anyone have one that's lasted any length of time? Any brands that are stand out?

I've used the high end LavAzzas before and they're nice, but that's way overboard for what we need and I don't want to get involved with proprietary stuff. Wife wants to make teas, and it might be nice if I want a quick cup of coffee and don't want to grind and brew my usual full pot.

I just don't want to waste the time and $$ on something that's going to end up being a source of irritation. Any advice out there?

We had one problem Bill and I believe it was beyond the warranty.
They had us send it back and they sent a new one.It brews a pretty good cup,we all use it,though not exclusively.

Depending on your water quality consider a Britta type water filter pitcher used to fill up the keurig seemed to help keep are last one running the longest until yesterday when it simply would not turn on. Also descale it as recommended by keurig and you should be good to go.

The B70 has had a ton of issues... I bought mine used and haven't had a problem, but if you look online there are a bunch fixes you can try at home before deciding to send it in. Also, using filtered water is a good idea.
