From my sophomore year in high school through college a typical night out with friends was to one of the local indie coffee joints or one of the corporate chains where we would spend hours drinking our favourite coffee enjoying deep conversations or studying for our classes. I was indeed a coffee snob and nothing home brewed satisfied my palate. Having graduated college in 2005 and in the corporate world working sixty hour weeks and night classes for my MBA, without coffee I would never make it through a day. Recently on a work related trip to Massachusetts I was in a client’s waiting area where they had a coffee station with a Keurig, I quickly gathered how it worked, popped in a K-Cup expecting a watered down coffee like you get from those convenient store machines that are push button with flavoured blends. Much to my surprise I was blessed with a piping hot and delicious cup of coffee in seconds that brought me back to those high school and college days, really great coffee. I knew then I had to have a Keurig for myself! Now, it is also worthy of mention that on this trip to MA I was going to visit my grandmother who has macular degeneration and is legally blind. I stayed a night with her and awoke to see how much she struggled to try and make her morning coffee, spilling grounds as her unsteady hands measured the ground coffee into the basket, then trying to get the filter basket into the brewer properly and fill the water tank – I felt sorry that she had to go through such an ordeal just to enjoy her morning coffee and it occured to me – a Keurig would be perfect for her. I do most of my shopping here on Amazon because I travel more than 200 days out of the year – I booted up my laptop and ordered us both the Keurig B66. It came with 72 K-Cups (6 boxes of 12 K-Cups in various roasts & flavours) and the Keurig water filter. I am so pleased with the quality of the brewer, the quality of the coffee it makes and ease of use as well as its aesthetic appeal – it’s a good looking appliance with the chrome accents and blue lit LCD screen, 3 cup size buttons and under the water tank. I was amazed at how quickly my grandmother was able to figure out how to use the Keurig B66 which goes right back to ease of use, IT IS SO EASY, and how much she thanked me and has become a raving fan of the Kuerig B66. Just recently on a visit to the same client I spent the weekend with her and she was talking to a friend that lives in her condo building who she had not seen in some time and she said “you have to come see my coffee maker my grandson bought me, you just have to see it.” The seller delivered exactly what it described on the page and the product is amazing, I plan on purchasing a couple for Christmas presents this year and will definitely go through the same seller. The only thing I would have like to have known before I purchased was that the B66 did not include the My K-Cup and that by registering your brewer online if you purchase 2 boxes of K-Cups you get 10% off those 2 plus 2 more free & free shipping – an added perq indded.

I noticed that some people said that it stopped working. I learned that if you have hard water, the minerals build up. I now use distilled water, I have no more problems with my small appliances that require water.

I just purchased this coffee machine today and Absolutely love it! So easy to set up right out of the box and all they also give you plenty of Kcups to get you started. The coffee tastes fantastic, fresh and Hot! I made me a cup for after dinner, perfect cup!!

I really like the Keurig. I bought it for the office and my co-workers like it too. It couldn’t be easier and there’s nothing to clean. The many K-Cups that came with it are a great bonus if you like all types of coffee. Personally I only like light roasts and there was very little of that so I’m stuck with a whole lot of K-Cups I can’t use. I’m trying to encourage everyone else to use them. Bottom line is that the coffee maker is very convenient and the coffee tastes great. There are plenty of choices of K-Cups on the market to suit any taste. Right after I bought this one, I saw another model in Costco which has an “iced coffee” setting as well as the regular settings. So I bought that one for home and I love it. If you like iced coffee you might try to find that model.

I purchased this unit because I love the coffee it makes and the ease of use. My brother-in-law has one, and I drink their coffee whenever I’m there. It’s easy to use, just follow the directions. But..don’t install the filter. I did this, and the unit wouldn’t draw the water from the reservoir. I tried it twice before I smelled a slight burning odor and shut it off. I checked the internet for problems of this sort and found it was possible. So I called Keurig, and they said that they have found that the unit doesn’t have the power to draw thru the filter, so don’t use it. Not sure why they would provide it in the first place, since you’re supposed to use filtered water anyway. It didn’t hurt that it came with 72 k-cups. (Only 2 were decaf, so be aware of that). Still, I would definitely recommend a Keurig.
