We had a Keurig previously then went to the Bosch Tassimo, and then discovered the Nescafe' while in Europe this summer. We think the Nescafe' Dolce Gusto coffees, cappuccino,and latte macchiato beats both our previous coffee makers in taste by far. Great coffee!! Enjoy!!

I have two Keurigs. It works with one just fine but not the other. I don't know why. They don't cost that much. Try it out. They are not that expensive, and well worth it if it's successful.

Nope. Senseo coffeemaker far superior to the Keurig relative to taste. And the coffee is so much more cost effective.....

It depends on how many different types of coffee you would like to drink! The keurig has A LOt more options than the dolce. However the dolce brews at a very high pressure which allows it to make lattes and cappuccinos.

Yes... It is awesome. I can make tea every 60 seconds with the hot water feature too. This is the Cadillac of Keurigs

The coffee isn't BAD. I would guess a lot depends on your k-cups, water quality, etc. honestly, I don't consider this product to be a good cup if coffee- it's more of a hot caffeine delivery system. No worse than any other keurig, but not as good as fresh ground.

I've had mine for about 10 months. I think it makes great cups of regular coffee for a pod machine. It makes 8 oz. but you can easily get a few more ozs. out of each pod. In my opinion the darker coffees (Verona, anniversary blend) taste the best. If your goal is to save money then I wouldn't buy this machine. It's really more about convenience and IMO a better cup than the K.

Time will depend on strength of coffee & size of mug. I use it much like a French press - so it is steeped before dispensing. The flavor is AMAZING. If you just want to brew, its quicker. I had Keurig cup yesterday - NOT in the same league, not even close.

The brewing pass through is adequate. I use both the bags and k cups . I feel the two taste the same.

I've only used the KBG 741 so I can't tell you the difference. What I can say is this coffee maker brews the best coffee my hubby and I have ever had. And if I need hot water for tea I can grab the pot while it's still filling the pot and it doesn't run everywhere. I wish the glass on the pot was a little thicker though. I'm glad we bought a couple of extras because we broke one not long after we bought it. We've not had a problem since because we've been more careful. The only other "problem" is that when we have coffee made with any other maker it's not as good, especially restaurant coffee. I've only used the KBG 741 so I can't tell you the difference.

As far as I have experienced, it does accept all brands of regular K-cups, and also reusable refill style cups. I don't like the refill one that Keurig makes, because you have to take out the pod cartridge inside the machine and replace it with the refillable one, which is a hassle. I like the one I bought at Bed Bath and Beyond that is a little plastic pod that fits right in the space where a disposable pod would fit, and comes with tiny little paper filters so you can use your own coffee instead of buying the expensive Keurig pods all the time.

I have seen little to no difference in the performace of the ecobrew refillable cup and the standard Keurig K-Cups. Suggest that you try a different machine and see if the results are the same.

do not get your question. While I have your attention, There is one problem with the Keurig. I have the home in Fl and one in Ohio. When I am gone from Fl for 5 months, I often have to buy a new Kuerig as it stops working. it is expensive.

I have had a Keurig for a year and love it but it does not make a froth on the coffee like Senseo. Furthermore, the Kcups are almost double the price of the Senseo pods. I have tasted Senseo coffee at a friends house and I like it better than the Keurig.If I was buying, I would purchase the Senseo for the above reasons.Kumar

No it's not. That said, it works as good as one and has been a dream. Not regretted getting it once. And got my wife hooked on Tim's coffee as well.

I use the Pod Holster in a Breville machine, but know of nothing mechanically different from Keurig. The Pods are a tight squeeze but work just fine.
