Keurig B70 Platinum Brewing System

excellent coffee maker has a great range of cup sizes to choose from and also looks good siting our kitchen with its blue neon lights in the tank and display NICE

Great machine however most disappointing on Christmas morning whe opened it up , 48 coffee pods missing , box had been oppened and re sealed only option is to return machine and buy again like the machine 4 stars for actual machine

How do we get a replacement device - have had this item for less than 10 months and it stops working intermittently!

Think they have the wrong price on this, it's a good machine but under $100 in USA.

Amazing coffee maker. Far superior to previous machines I have had (Verismo, Nespresso). Love the features, especially timer. People often complain that it takes up to 4 minutes to prepare to brew. I put the machine on a timer so it is ready in the morning. If you want a brew later in the day it doesn’t take as long. The variety of pods is what I really enjoy. I also use the reusable pod a lot so can purchase ground coffee anywhere and still make through this keurig coffee maker. Whats not to love........

Best investment ever. Works fantastic.

I have owned this particular model (B70 Platinum)for about 7 months now with no major issues. I could go with 4 stars, but I put 5 because I do love my Keurig and the over all concept!! I drink coffee and tea regularly,(and use it to make my oatmeal and cup of noodles too :)) and I have always ran into the problem of wasting more coffee by brewing a pot on my old coffee maker. I would make about 4 to 8 cups with the intention on drinking it, but never happened that way, or it would taste stale after sitting a few hours. Yes, the K-cups can be a bit on the pricey side, but in my case it is far more cheaper to go this route (I drink anywhere between 2-6 cups a day). I haven't tried the filter to add my own coffee yet. So here we go based on my few months of use and other reviews:-Yes the machine makes some noise, but to say it is loud may be a little extreme in my opinion (unless it's about to blow up). It has to heat and pump the water. It may be a tad bit louder than a traditional coffee maker brewing a pot of coffee if thats even considered loud.-K-cups: There may have been about 4 or 5 times where I ended up with coffee grind in my cup and from what I observed, it seems that some companies are packing too much coffee into the K-cup. I had this problem only when I had purchased a 24 ct box of The Original Donut Shop by Coffee People and the Green Mountain variety pack. (not all of the cups did this though, so I would say that some K-cups that make it off the line can be faulty, but thats not very common)-There were 2 times where the coffee was short changed and didn't brew completly. I figured I might have done something wrong, but I really couldn't tell you. Haven't had the problem since.-The temp. is great. It brews hot everytime. I do use a lot of liquid creamer so it does cool it down to the perfect drinking temp. If you prefer it mouth burning hot, you can always heat up your milk or creamer prior to adding it to your coffee. But, I have yet to do that because it comes out fine.-can purchase K-cups from Amazon, grocery store, and some other well known stores as well. Which makes it great when you don't want to pay for the shipping from the Keurig site or you don't want to wait. Plus, there are so many types of coffee,tea, hot chocolate, lattes, etc to choose from. If your not sure, buy a 5 K-cup sample pack from Keurig until you find your favorite.-Brews a fresh cup of coffee/tea/hot water everytime in 3 minutes or less. No more wasting a pot of coffee or stale/burnt coffee from sitting too long. No more filters or messy coffee grind (use to hate measuring, spilling, and cleaning with my traditional coffee maker which half the time lead me to go buy a cup from somewhere)-this model comes with 4 brewing options. I keep mine set to the standard cup. I have used the brew over ice option, and am not too big of a fan of that because it melts the ice and waters down the K-cup ice tea (which isn't strong or sweet enough, but that has to do with the Celestial Sweet Tea K-cup); I may need to lower the temp. When I make hot tea w/ the K-cups I use the smallest cup (sorry don't know the exact size) because it gives it a better/stronger flavor as I tend to add a lot of milk to it.-Flavor is great. I have sampled many flavors and brands of coffee and tea, and figured out the ones I really liked best. I've learned that for a good flavor coffee, stick with the standard size brewing option because it seems that is how they package the K-cups. This is also the perfect option for you fellow Cup of Noodle eaters:) If I use my 16oz travel mug, I just brew 2 K-cups (thats where the price can get you) because the coffee isn't as strong as I like it, but still drinkable.-Once again, I haven't tried it, but you can purchase a filter to use your own coffee with. I also purchased the water filter to put in the water resevoir because I have pretty hard water. I did use bottled water for the first month, but became lazy shortly there after!All in all, I could have went with a cheaper model with less brewing options because I don't really use the others as much as I use the standard size cup option. But, I just bought this after my friend told me about Keurig, so I just bought the one I thought was fancy!! haha (stupid ol' me)So, if you don't think your going to use all the features, you may consider going for a cheaper model that has one or two brewing options. I do like Keurig because of the design and ease of use.I do love my Keurig and everyone has their own opinion and experiance with it, but I would recommend this to a friend as I plan on purchasing one for my father-in-law and parents for Christmas. If I could do it all over again I would still purchase this because I am truely satisfied with it and I am sure you will be too.

I was almost put off by the price of this unit, but I took the plunge and bought it and I'm glad I did. It makes perfect coffe every time, and has the flexibility to produce exactly the cup of coffee you want at any given time. Those who say the coffee is too weak don't understand how to use the machine [see my recommendations below] and those who say it's too noisy haven't placed it properly. The pump does make a bit of sound but if you isolate the unit from hard surfaces, with underpadding for example, the noise is tamed considerably.About the strength of the coffee: It helps to understand that the K-cups themselves are portioned for a standard 6-oz coffee cup. Most people do not actually use 6-oz cups and have never made a standard measure cup of coffee. I hadn't either until I got this machine. Now I understand. If you use a 12-oz cup, you need 2 K-cups and two shots of water at 6 ounces each. Not cheap, but sure is good. You can adjust strength for taste by adjusting the amount of water.One of my sisters likes it a little weaker than standard, so she uses a single 10-oz shot of water. Comes out perfect for her. My son likes it strong, so he uses bold K-cups, one with a 6-oz shot and one with an 8-oz shot of water to make his morning coffee. I like mine kind of medium, so I use two regular K-cups (not bold), one full-caf with 6 oz and one decaf with 6 oz and I'm all set. Great coffee. You can make it any way you want from standard coffee cup to travel mug. Don't try to make a full travel mug with one K-cup unless you like it weak. One friend of mine likes it that way, though, so there really is a recipe for everyone.Let's face it, K-cups are not cheap coffee for home brew, though it is more than competitive with barista-served boutique coffee and every bit as good. But for those who can't get past the price of the K-cups, there's is a very clever little contraption, easy to use, that lets you use whatever coffee in whatever portion you like! What could be more flexible? Even with the little contraption, making coffee with this machine is much easier and tidier than using any kind of coffee pot, and the results are fantastic.I agree with the spring water recommendation unless you are lucky to live in a place where the water is additive free with no taste of its own. I buy store brand spring water by the case. It's worth it for the quality of the final product. If you care about good coffee, go the extra distance. If you use the little brew contraption that lets you use your own coffee, then the little extra cost for spring water, which you should be using anyway, isn't really a burden. If you pony up for this appliance, you probably don't care all that much about the price of coffee per cup. Besides, if you buy coffee out, this is less expensive even with two K-cups per serving and spring water. All that doesn't come to $1.39, so there's really nothing to complain about.This is not to say the machine is perfect in every way. Probably no machine is perfect in every way. It could be quieter. The reservoir could be larger. The control panel could have more buttons and adjustments, although I don't see how that really would be an improvement. You can adjust the water temp and the shot size, so what else do you really need? Get it, brew up some fine coffee and enjoy. It's quick and easy and very neat and clean. If you love coffee, you won't be sorry you got this machine. Enough said.

IT WAS A TOTAL FLOP but glad i got money back quickly and bought a great cuisinart k cup machine.

I'm not a coffee snob, but I do take the time for a good cup of morning coffee. Before the Keurig, I was brewing my coffee in a stovetop espresso pot/maker, using fresh ground beans. Other times, I'd use the French press. A few friends had bought a Keurig and I would sort of wonder how anyone would want to spend that much money on a coffee machine for potentially mediocre results. Until...I visited my friend and stayed with her for a few days. She only had a Keurig, and so it was the sole choice at home. The first morning, I brewed a cup, and lo and behold, "This coffee is GOOD!" Not only is the coffee actually good, strong, and full-flavored, it is also so easy, quick, and there's nothing to clean up afterward. I fell in love with that thing and upon returning home, I placed an order for my own machine!I like this model because it has the water reservoir, making it simple to just touch the "Brew" button and have a cup of hot coffee in less than one minute. It also gives you the option for five cup sizes - which varies the strength accordingly as well. You can also adjust the water temperature! At this time, I left mine at the default 192F. You can set the time for your machine to heat the water and be ready to brew when you are ready to have your coffee, and also the off time so that it automatically turns off/stops keeping the water hot and ready for use. If you choose to turn it on while it has been off, it doesn't take longer than a minute for the water to reheat. Impressive!In the mornings before going to work, I really appreciate the ease and quickness of this Keurig! I don't have to spend time measuring water, filling the pot, measuring grounds, waiting 5 minutes for it to brew, etc., and then cleaning the pot. This may all sound petty, but if you have some money to spend on your coffee habit, it sure does make it convenient. :)I just invested in a custom K-cup to use in lieu of the ones that come pre-filled. This way, you can buy your own beans, grind them fresh, and fill the custom K-cup with your own type of coffee. It will also save money, as one package of coffee beans runs between $6-12 and can last well over a month, where as 18 pre-filled K-cups come in a package of 18 or so, and they cost nearly $12-15. Nonetheless, it's nice to have the option to brew any type of coffee you want, pre-filled or your own.Also, for those tea drinkers, there are tea K-cups that you can use as well. I just bought Earl Gray tea K-cups!This has become my favorite kitchen "gadget". :)Very fast shipping.
