Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Granted, I have only had this coffee maker 4 days, but so far, I am very impressed. It does basically what a Keurig does and in far less space. Here is my assessment so far. I'll try to remember to update this after I have had it more than a month. GOOD: 1) It brews up to 16oz (but don't go over 12). 2) I am able to put my large travel mug under it (unlike some Keurigs where you have to brew 2 smaller cups and pour them into your mug). 3) It brews in 1 min 50 seconds - IMPRESSIVE. 4) It brews a nice strength of coffee - normal, not weak at all. 5) It takes K-cups and comes with a filter that you can fill with your own grounds. 6) It takes up very little space on my counter. 7) It brews a hot cup of coffee - I don't have to microwave it to heat it up. BAD 1) It spits out a little bit of the coffee at the end of the brew which I have to clean up on my counter afterwards! But seriously, if that's the worst....! 2) It may not have all the bells and whistles some other coffee makers have, but I can live with that for now since my budget is tight. I am very pleased with this and looking forward to the money I will save by not stopping at 7-11 every morning to get $2 cups of coffee! Months later: Still love it! Even took this on vacation so I didn't have to use the abominable coffee they provide in those hotel rooms! Because it's small, it was easy to pack in a bag.
