Strengths: Perfect cup of FRESH coffee every time. No waste, so NOT expensive in long run !!

Weaknesses: Really no weaknesses. It does everything for a Good Hot cup of coffee in a minute.

Summary: I do have ONE tiny concern. When you purchase the Keurig's , they give you a variety pack of K cups. I have loved most of them and bought Green Mt. Cocoa for the kids. It tastes like a plastic , or chlorine after taste. Did anyone else have such a problem??

Strengths: Well constructed, can handle many size cups, mugs. VERY wide variety (over 150!) of K-cups coffee, teas, hot cocoa available. Well written manual & quick start guide. Easy to use and clean up.

Weaknesses: Coffemaker is expensive, K-cups are more expensive per use then say the pods, rather noisy but no noiser then other single serve brands. Large footprint

Summary: After months of research, online forums, etc. I decided the Keurig B60 was a perfect upgrade from our other (Brand S) single serve coffeemaker. It is especially easy to use for those with "low vision" and/or who are "visually impaired" which was one of our major concerns.Really enjoyed reading the full-colored, well written and organized Gourmet Coffee, Tea & Hot Cocoa Shopping Guide. You almost want to run out and buy all those delicious sounding coffees. Addictive reading and a keeper for sure.Easy to use and clean. The blue LCD lights in the water reservoir blink when the water is low - nice touch! Solid construction with shiny chrome handle. The B60 has 3 cups size buttons/choices: small cup (5.25oz) small mug (7.25oz) and large mug (9.25oz). They can even be combined: after machine stops, open handle, (don't replace K-cup), re-close then push your desired size. In other words, the 5.25 + 7.25 fills a 12 oz. mug nicely. Yes, it holds all our various size cups/mugs, short and tall alike. Brewing temperature is factory set at 192 degrees, which gives you a hot fresh cup of coffee. It can be set lower (185 degrees) if you prefer.Overall we are very pleased with our purchase and am looking forward to many years of coffee pleasure.

Strengths: Very easy to use and not messy. Brews excellent coffee every time.

Weaknesses: Only available in US and Canada I was told.

Summary: I hope someone from Keurig replies to this message of mine. I'm really desperate to get my B60 coffee maker going. I brought it to Sydney Australia and put it in my luggage. The water compartment broke and the machine won't work. (even if I had to use a transformer). What do you think I should do

Strengths: Fast, Hot, Easy. Lots of flavors!

Weaknesses: K-Cup availability in stores

Summary: Easily the best single serve I have used.I have used Melitta one to one, Senseo and Tassimo.I LOVE THIS MACHINE!Been though them all.K-Cups are available online and usually cheaper than in the store, so just order ahead of time and you will never be without. Mine came with a Your K-Cup filter so I can use my favorite coffee in place of the K-Cups. Love this idea! Keeps costs down when your out of K-Cups to use or while waiting for your shipments to arrive.

Strengths: Easy to use, discount pricing available at many stores, choice of cup size, led display

Weaknesses: Can be a bit noisy

Summary: This is my first 1 cup coffee maker and I couldn't be happier. The coffee maker heats up the water fast and makes a good cup of coffee. The machine came with a sample pack of K cups which is helpful in deciding which coffees that I like for future orders. The machine is so easy to use. The only downside is that it can be a bit noisy while it is heating the water before getting ready to brew. The LED display is nice as well.
