I am on my 5th Keurig. They last about a year and then quit. I want to know if this Mr. Coffee Keurig machine is reliable.

Nooooooo. It leaks and damages your counters and cabinets I'd you don't catch it. They just replace it with another machine with the SAME issue. Descale, descale , descale your Keurig often and it should be fine.

We have had this Mr. Coffee model for 1 year, 8 months. In the last 3 months it has started clogging and we often cannot get a full cup of coffee, it just drips out or no water comes out at all. We unclog it, descale it, clean it, and it's still hit or miss. We even used distilled water in it because our water is fairly hard. That said, it was a lot cheaper than the Keurig and it does still work much of the time.

Not at all! We tried 2 different times but both of them would cause the k-cups to explode and coffee would go everywhere. Don't waste your time or money on this.

NOOOOOO this is not reliable. I cleaned it as instructed and six months after purchase it suddenly stopped working. Amazon only allows returns for 30 days on this item so it was a complete waste of money.

I love mine but haven't had it for over a year. My mother though has had her keurig for 3 years and it still works fine, did you clean it regularly? If you do not clean these regularly they can become almost like clogged up and will stop working so make sure to follow the care instructions.

Not sure what happened with the other folks but mine will be 2 years old next month and I haven't had a single issue. My Keurig brand before this only lasted 1 year. I use mine about 6 times a week. Coffee, tea and cocoa.I do use R/O water (though I read that I should not), as I want my coffee to taste good.

Hi there! I've had mine 3 years. I used it primarily for camping. I own several machines. Don't ask. I've started using this one in the house as primary. I love the size, coffee is really hot, programmable and auto shut off.

I know what you mean Michael, we went through two of the Faberware percs and both died the same way -- heating element failure after a few months. Both were under warranty but the hassle of sending them back wasn't worth it. Last week we were in Wal-Mart and on a whim I decided to see what kind of percolators they sold. A nice looking 12-cup unit from GE caught my eye and we decided to buy it since it was less than $50. The build quality looks great, it makes good coffee, and it comes with an _in-store_, 2-year replacement warranty. If it craps out in the next two years, I can bring it in to any WM and they will replace it on the spot.

I have probably the oldest Keurig model, but they all seem to have the same loading system. So, my answer is probably.

Haven't used it for over 3 months yet. It has it's limitations but so far working okay for our small office. Three of us use it regularly each day M-F. For the price, I think it is good. I have a Bella one-cup machine I use at home which can use pods but is designed for individual coffee grounds as well. That's a great one, but I wanted something with pods so they could be easily discarded at work. I'm sure there are better models, and of course ones that use the K-cups. I would say it is a 7 out of 10 because for the cost it brews the coffee. Staff have brought in flavored pods to add to our coffee inventory. Hope this comment helps.

it lasted about 11 months. Went back to my drip coffee maker. I've had it for 3 years and is still going.

My box of Sleepytime Tea has printed on it, "Best used by April 2016"" and I received it last month. I had another k-cup for a long while and I found that if I 'massaged' the cup, it was perfectly fine. I can't imagine it will go bad.

The used ones are good for parts. I loved them but gave up because I kept on buying used ones to keep mine going. I decided to buy a Keurig K45 or K75 (Don't remember) but love the k-cups a lot better. They are a lot more money but worth it.

I've had mine for about 10 months. I think it makes great cups of regular coffee for a pod machine. It makes 8 oz. but you can easily get a few more ozs. out of each pod. In my opinion the darker coffees (Verona, anniversary blend) taste the best. If your goal is to save money then I wouldn't buy this machine. It's really more about convenience and IMO a better cup than the K.

I have used them with my Keurig about 4-5 times using both coffee and loose tea and I have had no problems thus far.

Mine works really well, nothing was broken, everything works as it's supposed to. Coffee is brewed very quickly and it stays hot for a good amount of time. Set up is easy and coffee tastes great. I would recommend, although I have read about others experiencing malfunctions. Not sure why? Mine has been just as I expected and hoped for.

This coffee maker can make up to 10 cups, but only by pouring water up to the proper level of cups on the glass water gauge. The problem can be in trusting the gauge to be reliable. I found that it was not reliable, resulting in coffee either too strong, or too weak. When it is reliable, the coffee is quite good. When it isn't reliable, ... !

I recommend calling Mr. Coffee directly. Maybe they have received other complaints from people having the same problem. In my experience, Mr. Coffee is a customer friendly company.

1-800-mr coffee. They are closed on the weekends. How long did you have yours before it broke?

Yes - but unless Mr. Coffee has improved its quality control, this coffee maker is likely to leak and subsequently quit completely. See the reviews on Amazon. (The most recent review mentioning leakage was a month ago, so I suspect it continues to be an unreliable product.) Mine leaked a little from the very beginning, but not enough to be unusable. However it stopped completely after a year.

Contact the Keurig company directly call 1-866-901-BREW, or go on-line to keurig.com/customer-service. They will give you step by step maintenance. If you have done the maintenance and it still doesn't work--call. They were very helpful when our first Keurig malfunctioned.
