I order my K-cups from CoffeeCow.com. Usually about $10.99 for a 24 pack. Free delivery if you order $65 or more. They also give "COW BUCKS" which is like a coupon to use with future orders. And yes, Billethkid recommendation about running a clear cup of water after EACH time you run the hot choclate. Is a good one. Not only does the HC tends to clog the openings, the flavor will remain and your next cup of coffee will taste like the HC you had earlier.

Well, I recently had this problem. I've had it a few years, so it was not in warranty. I called Keurig to see if they might be able to help me trouble shoot.
They did one better. First they tried to help me trouble-shoot. When it didn't work, they offered to send me a replacement. Sure enough, two days later, I received a brand new one. They even sent me a package of coffee for my trouble.

Price jumped. That comes to .60 cents a cup. OUCH! Going to have to find other places to by. Maybe the Sams Club box of 80 someone else mentioned is the ticket.

I'm still loving our new Keurig. I buy K cups in the grocery store, I love the different flavoured varieties.

My sweetheart is an absolute coffee fiend and I am considering getting her one of these types of machines for a Christmas present. She curently has a high end espresso machine and while she likes it, the ease of use of these new K-cup machines is attractive-no grinding, no grounds everywhere, different size portions, etc. I am considering the Keurig Platinum, The Cuisinart, and the Breville (we have a Breville juicer that we love).
Researching online as to which is the best machine hasn't been very productive. Reviews for all three of the machines I am considering are mixed and none of them seem to have a clear advantage over the others. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

with a Keurig you will save money once one stops throwing out the coffee that is always left in the pot.
Plus never a stale cup of coffee.
Their customer service is tops.
Buy their k-cups at Kohl's when they have their 30% off coupons.
We have had one for three years and cannot come up a downside for having one!

I agree Cuisinart is the best plus they have a 3 year warranty. I have had no problems and the refillable filter they provide works great and is not slow by any means! We buy Green Mountain coffee at Sams and even Folgers LOl Loved the Christmas blend from Fresh Market hence using the refillable filer cup was great to have. I thought the Donut Shop brand coffee was horrible so was glad by machine came with a bunch of different coffees to try so you will know what suits your taste buds best.

I have the Kuerig coffee maker & I love it!! You do have to clean it now & then with a solution that you buy at bed bath & beyond. It is very reasonable I think it cost four dollars all you do it add it to the water & let it run threw!! Good luck!!
