I've had one for 2 years and never had a problem with it. I bought it because I love flavored coffee and my husband hates it. the last time I made a pot of flavored coffee in our regular coffeepot I thought my husband was going to divorce me. He carried on for days about how his coffee now tasted like french vanilla even though it was days later. A month later I saw the Keurig, bought it, and we've been happily married ever since.
