Not bad, but get the more advanced machines
I love the Keurig K-cup coffees. I had an "elite" brewer in my old apartment. I got a mini for my new apartment because I didn't want to pay the price for the more advanced "elite" brewer. I'm finding the mini OK, but it's not nearly as good as the "elite" one. This machine can only handle one cup at a time. You have to refill it with water every time you want a new cup. There are no settings to automatically set the brewer to make a certain sized cup. Also, it takes a while to heat the water. It's certainly not a bad machine, but it's probably not worth saving $20-30 bucks by getting this one if you drink a lot of coffee.
I guess this is progress over the B30, but still....
I have this Keurig in my office at work. It's perfect for my once-a-day cup of coffee so I can wake-up in the morning.
I received my new Mini Plus as a warranty replacement for my Keurig Mini Model B30. Keurig's customer service is wonderful, they immediately sent me a new Mini Plus to replace my B30 as they are no longer being made.
I liked the old Mini better until it quit working. (The pump went out on it after just 3 months). This Mini Plus seems to be built more cheaply than the Mini, but I guess time will tell how long this one lasts.
I also have a problem with the lights flashing at times they should not. For instance, you will see the water lid flashing when it should not be flashing. I know I should contact Customer Service with this, but right now as long as I'm getting a cup of coffee out of it, I'm satisfied.
The Mini Plus has some different features. It has a storable cord, but it doesn't retract on its own, you have to push it...
Does the job, nice size.
This is a very good value for a small kitchen. The coffee maker's appearance is attractive and it takes up about as much space as a toaster. The bottom piece that the cup rests on is removable to accommodate taller cup sizes. Brew time is about 1.5 to 2 minutes to heat the water. My only complaint is that sometimes the maker randomly doesn't disburse the heated water even though the lid has been closed properly. I have heard it heat the water a number of times and then it just sits there. I've fixed this problem by turning off/on again and re-brewing, but this is a time consuming inconvenience and a definite flaw in my machine. If not for this issue, I would have given the product a 5.
