One Cup Report - Review Score
Top praises:
“You can use ANY K-cup pods, even ones without the logo. (I just found my new favorite {non-licensed} coffee which I wouldn’t be able to use if I’d bought a 2.0. It’s packaged in a short pod with a filter bottom vs. plastic, so will leave less non-biodegradable material in our landfills)
The reservoir is easy to get at & you don’t have to remove the entire thing to fill it like on some brands
Reservoir is clear so you can see when water is getting low
Low Water indicator light comes on to remind you to fill reservoir in case you don’t notice
Water filter feature is great if you have hard water like I do, don’t have filtered water and don’t want to use bottled water”
“Makes a really good-flavored cup of coffee and definitely hot
Nice to pop in a K-Cup and not mess with grounds”
“This product has raised, distinct buttons, so she can operate it by feel and relative position.”

“Well the new one stopped working today. It looks like something is possibly wrong with the valve. It’s just spewing small amounts of coffee all over the kitchen. I don’t remember our previous keurig model but it didn’t work long either.”
“It is very convenient but coffee doesn’t really taste the same as the good drip coffee. I started using the basket that your refill yourself but for some reason coffee comes out warm and it still doesn’t taste right.”
“When hitting the large cup size you can get a different amount of brewed coffee each time. Varies from half a cup to almost full cup. The rate that the water come out also varies from a normal speed to a trickle. Now it doesn’t work with some cups and then is fine with other; even if the exact same k cup. Ending up wasting k cups.”
