We are concern about durabilty. We've had three Keurig machines and they alt started to go after the first year. How about this one?

I bought my Cuisinart SS-7700 in December 2011 and it just stopped working July 20 2015, which is over 3 1/2 years.

I was able to get it working again but unfortunately I was told it is only a temporary fix. I do not recommend this coffee maker. If you must do a keurig machine I recommend buying the cheapest one possible since they all use really crappy parts and are poorly designed.

We've had one at work for almost 2 years and it is still working great, At home my husband and I have had 3 Keurig machines in 5 years. I decided this last time I was going to buy a Cuisinart because the one at work is doing great and it is used constantly. We've only had ours at home for a couple months - so far so good.

I've had three different Keurig systems. One has been going strong for 4+ years. One is now getting a little flakey (but still mostly functional) after 3+ years. This one performed the worst and lasted the shortest time of any of them becoming not operational in under a year, and it is the third one I bought!

Ours is about 6 years old and still working, although noticeably slower that when we got it. We brew an average of 4 to 6 cups a day. Even though we de-scale it about 2 to 3 times a years, I have the sense that it's suffering from "hardening of the arteries" due to age. We're planning on purchasing a replacement soon, however, it will be downstreamed to one of our sons. And why not? It still works fine . . . it's just a bit slower than we would like.

here is my experience with all Keurig type machine. If your water has lot mineral after about a year they will stop working when the mineral deposit clog up the the pump and it can no longer push the water out to make coffee. the only way around this that i have found is to used distilled water becausue all of the mineral have been removed with this process. this is just my opinion

I've had no issues with this one. In the case of going through several kuerig machines. After doing extensive research in looking for the best on the market. I found that the CuisineArt machine had fewest problems. However, not sure about the water where you live, but to ensure that they don't get hard water resin that clogs. I change the water filters on the machine at least monthly if not more often. For a good deal I found a pack of 20 filters on Amazon for a low price which makes it worth the cost of replacing them as often as possible. Also, this machine has the rinse feature, which I use often to keep the needles clean at least every other day. Hope this helps. TRod I've had no issues with this one.

Thank you!!! My Keurig is dying and I am trying to decide on another one or this one. The Keurig doesn't seem to last long and they are expensive.

Haven't had that issue so far, our machine is around 2 years old with no problems. I would contact the manufacturer.

It's a lemon like mine was....return it and get a keurig. The first one I bought didn't brew either so I returned it to Macy's and they sent me another....then, after two months the second one died so I called Macy's and they took it back.....got myself a keurig and haven't had a problem since!

I've had mine for a few months and have used it a lot...sometimes I put too much in, but I've not noticed any gouging. Doesn't it have a 10 year guarantee? AS long as it still works and it's just looks, I personally wouldn't worry until it looks like it might actually be breaking apart. I guess it's just a bid DUNNO from me

Haven't used it for over 3 months yet. It has it's limitations but so far working okay for our small office. Three of us use it regularly each day M-F. For the price, I think it is good. I have a Bella one-cup machine I use at home which can use pods but is designed for individual coffee grounds as well. That's a great one, but I wanted something with pods so they could be easily discarded at work. I'm sure there are better models, and of course ones that use the K-cups. I would say it is a 7 out of 10 because for the cost it brews the coffee. Staff have brought in flavored pods to add to our coffee inventory. Hope this comment helps.

I do not think Keurig still makes and sells this product. There may be others like the Vue you mention, but this particular model is no longer produced so no more reviews.

It was pretty good for the first three years, then it started having some problems. They did cover the replacement parts and costs but you will need to contact them. It is a good machine and is very heavy. Make sure you put it where you will not need to move it. Hope this helps!

I have had my coffee maker about as long as you have. I did not experience any problems with my coffee maker. I think my coffee maker was a very good purchase.

Nooooooo. It leaks and damages your counters and cabinets I'd you don't catch it. They just replace it with another machine with the SAME issue. Descale, descale , descale your Keurig often and it should be fine.

I make coffee everyday and it hasn't stained or cracked yet. I can't say it'll last forever, especially if you drop it!

Our Cuisinart has been working fine for at least 3 years now. We have had no troubles with it.

I haven't heard of anyone keeping one for more than a year. They just stop working. Keep trying to find a frother that will do the job and last. I just bought another conpresso because I found it for 30.00. I'd pay a decent price if I knew it would last.

we haven't had any problems with ours ... we don't use it on a regular basis ... perhaps once a month to "wow" guests and or really make an espresso.

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.

All I know is our coffee started to come out slower and I tried to clean it and it helped a little, did you check in your manual ? Or go to the Hamilton Beach website and see if they have parts info. Our machine started to leak so we had to toss it out this was the third we had. We bought a Keurig and absolutely love it...

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.
