Some thoughts on the product -
1- The brew strength is kind-of weak, even on the bold blends, and even if you buy the reusable filter and fill it to max. If you're used to fairly strong coffee, though, you need to steer away from all the measured systems, be they filter packs, coffee pods, or K-cups, so this problem isn't unique to Keurig.
2- Noise. Yeah, it's a bit noisy, and it does have a formidable vibration. I suggest you buy some 3M rubber stick on feet for the bottom of the unit, as it reduces the amount of transfer considerably. Sort of annoying that the manufacturer didn't do this.
3- Reliability. There are some reports (here) of early failures. It should be noted that some of those reviews are for the older B40 (not the Elite), and some indicated they were making 20+ cups a day with the unit, which arguably may exceed the intended duty cycle for a unit with a 6-8 cups reservoir. Anyway, if you send in the warranty card, you're covered for ... Read More

I really enjoy the convenience of my Keurig brewer. It's easy to use and clean. The only con is that the coffee is a bit on the weak side. I think Keurig needs to figure a way to have the hot water pass more slowly through the coffee grounds. All in all, I'm very satisfied with the brewer.

Short and simple. I am so happy that I bought this. I'm in love from the get go. I would recommend this to anyone.

I own a Keurig B70 and I use it all of the time, however, my oldest daughter is not a coffee drinker and doesn't even own an imitation Mr. Coffee. When we went to her house in Albuquerque for Thanksgiving I sent a Keuring B40 to her so that it would arrive before we did. It was the hit of the gathering! I brought a lot of K-Cups from my collection to add to the sampler that comes with the machine. We went through over a hundred pods in the two days that the group (about 15 people) was there. Hot chocolate was a popular beverage for many, as were the assorted coffees and teas (for some reason Hazelnut seems to be the preferred flavored coffee for all of my guests). I even brought some of the holiday themed coffees which are available from Keurig during this time of the year, like "Gingerbread" made by Green Mountain and "Perfectly Pumpkin" by Timothy's. A little whipped cream made the coffees perfect. Everyone got what they wanted and they all just helped themselves (which my daughter ... Read More

I always thought a fresh cup of Starbucks was "good" coffee until my office got a Keurig, and I found myself _looking forward to going to work on a Monday morning_ because it meant I'd get to enjoy a cup of Gloria Jeans Butter Toffee Nut fresh from the Keurig while reading through my emails. At home I had a very nice Bonjour French press and a Krups 10 cup coffee maker, and both had been filled with Starbucks, Archer Farms, Boca Java and other non-cheap brands...and while I had good coffee at home, it was NOTHING like a cup from the Keurig. Soooo...I finally broke down at got this Keurig B40 for myself. Talk about an instant life upgrade! Seriously, this is outstanding, fresh, perfect-every-time coffee. I used to look forward to a weekend trip to Starbucks but since I got the Keurig, eh, not so much. So while the K-cups aren't cheap, at least I'm saving on Starbucks money!!
