We've got the little filter for it too if you want your own special blend of coffee. Our machine comes with 3 different cup sizes, it will even make travel mug sizes, and ours also has the ice tea fuction which I've been wearing out with this heat!

I would say it depends on how much you drink. I bought one for my husband, I don't drink coffee so I thought it would be better and not waste coffee. I couldn't have been more wrong! He started drinking a lot more coffee, probably 6 cups in the morning alone. When I figured out how much he was drinking a day of the "single" cups we were paying about $32.00 for a what would have been a can of coffee. The Keurig now has a spot in the cupboard not on the cupboard !

We bought one last holiday season and absolutely love it, but for the past few months it has been not brewing unless you hit the top of it. I've heard customer service is great and they'll ship a new one if you call, so maybe I should get off my butt and call them. :)

I make tea by just making a cup of hot water-don't add any" K cup"- and add my tea bags to the tea cup of hot water. Make double strength tea and add ice cubes when it cools a little. I happened to get a Keurig when my coffee maker died at Thanksgiving last year. Now it is just me and my husband making two cups of coffee in the AM and tea the rest of the day. Very clean and easy to use .

Being into 'green' it bothers me that all those cups go into a landfill ... if they are recyclable let me know and I'll do a HaPpY dance.
My 2 dds have the machine and have to admit the coffee is good but I end up adding more grounds to the cup in the machine and run water thru again ... that landfill thing really grates me.
sorry for the soapbox ...
