Mini Single Serve Coffee Maker for K Cup and Ground Coffee, Fast Brew One Cup Coffee Machine with Descaling Reminder and Water Window, 6 to 12 oz. Brew Sizes, Black

I was worried about buying an off brand(rather than Keurig) This little gem works wonderfully and takes up less space than my one cup Keurig.It works instantly and so far is easier to clean. I use the filler cup included as I dont like the disposable . Good product, efficient and easy.

Love this little coffee maker! Great size- hot coffee- ease of use. Love that it came with a pod holder and a coffee basket for making my own pods. The price was really good too!

Was looking for the smallest coffee maker I could find for a trip to Vegas. Las Vegas Hotels do not have coffeemakers in the rooms. Loved that you can use pods or regular coffee. Compact, easy to use and the taste was fine. TSA did make me take it out of the carryon to scan separately.

it works. definitely makes it hot ha. gets as close to boiling as it can without actually boiling. Perfect size for what I needed at work. Super easy to use. all in all it was a great value.

This item has a 4.2 rating and I'm giving it 5 stars. I had another single-serve coffee maker from another manufacturer, in the same price range, that I thought was great. I had a bit of a gaffe during cleaning and it was no longer operational. My bad, but I needed a quick replacement. This is definitely a step up in regard to function and features. I'm very happy with it and my beloved morning coffee is better in the Horavie than in my previous coffee maker. It's easy to use, runs quieter, hotter, and has a descaling reminder. I like the view window and the 4 cup sizes as well as the lit-up brew button. The reusable filter is huge, and I'm looking forward to a stronger cup as a result―and less plastic waste, too. Great little machine.

Disclaimer. I am a widower in my eighties, so it is just me wanting coffee in the morning. It takes about 5 minutes to complete the process so if you are married let your wife go first. Happy wife--happy life. I would advise reading the instructions; it doesn't take long. After your coffee has brewed let it set for about 15-20 seconds to completely drain the pod. If you don't there will be a little puddle to clean up. Be careful removing the pod holder unless you have let it cool off. Whether it makes a good cup of coffee depends more on your coffee than the coffee maker. This one works as well as a Keurig but is not as expensive. The big test for me will be its longevity. I had a Keurig Express and it only lasted 15 months which is the main reason I decided to give this brand a try.

Edited 3-10-2025K-cups are designed to make only 6-8 ounces of coffee. This is not enough. Fortunately, this maker has a basket filter for bulk grinds. I will need to open two pods to make one 12-ounce serving.Keep this in mind if you're considering a K-pod system unless you drink very little or weak coffee.I had previously given this one star, due to the terrible design and lack of instructions on how to open the filter pod. It is not immediately obvious, even to someone as mechanical as myself, repairing things like automobiles, televisions, washing machines, being an electronics tech for over 40 years, etc.I finally had to pry this thing open with a dental pick tool. After this, the method to open would appear to be to hold it in both hands and press your thumb up on the plastic plastic piece shown on the left side of my photo.The other thing I will alert you to when you open this coffeemaker and wonder why the K-pod holder appears to be missing is that they pack it into the water reservoir.So, these annoyances aside, how does the Horavie K1500 fare? Being retired and living alone with absolutely no friends, I finally realized that I'll likely never be making coffee for anyone other than myself and I typically brew 12 ounces at a time. The compact footprint of the K1500 takes very little real estate from my very small counters. The fact that I can just brew straight into my thermal cup means no carafe to clean or pour from. The K-pods mean I don't need to bend a cone filter's edges, grind coffee beans, or measure in grounds. These may seem like trivial things, but once you retire, you start thinking about ways to reduce the little daily chores. At least, I have. This is why I've "Smartitized" the house, automating practically everything: lights, fans, heaters, stereo, television, etc.Aside from opening the filter pod, this K1500 is easy to deploy. The first thing is just to add 12 ounces of water to it, place a cup in the stand, an push the button on top. I like the fact they put it on top instead of on the side of the base. Very convenient.Empty the first "brewed" water and grab a K-pod. I'm assuming this is the primary reason people buy this coffeemaker. This is my first experience with K-pod makers. I would never buy the overpriced Keurig units, especially aftwr discovering they actually put cameras in some of them to try and prevent consumers from using other than Keurig coffee pods. What a jerk move. By the way, if you own one of these, just save the foil tops from Keurig pods and tape them to the top of your other brand pods.This K1500 does indeed brew a 12-oz cup in under 2 minutes. There is, of course, no hot plate, so I advise using an insulated cup. The blue one in my photo has a capacity of 16 ounces and works well. I also bought it on Amazon. The unit turns itself off. I add my sugar before brewing, so I need only to stir and snap on the lid.The temperature of the coffee is slightly on the lower side. The best coffee is brewed between 190 and 205 degrees Fahrenheit. This maker does not come close to reaching these temperatures. I measured the stream with a laser thermometer and found it to be around 160-165 degree at its hottest. This should be adequate for most people.The first coffee pods I purchased are Mel's Drive-In Diner Blend. I will not review them until I've tasted them more, but the initial opinion is okay.

It just blinks and doesn’t make coffee. So disappointing. $40 for a non functioning coffee makerUPDATE: it actually works fine but if the lid is just a little off center (it wiggles) it won’t work at all. Updating my review to reflect this. It’s a good size for a compact kitchen and easy to use when the top is aligned perfectly.
