Design and Convenience

Pros:

  • "We LOVE the frother and the new pitcher design for the water reservoir."
  • "I love that it has many size options, including espresso (latte/cappuccino)."
  • "It’s so easy to use, and it takes up about the same amount of space as my previous Keurig."
  • "The water tank is very slim and small."
  • "The ability to select among multiple temp (including iced), strength & size criteria, and generally its overall ease of use."
  • "It’s like having coffee house coffee every morning."

Cons:

  • "The cup is difficult to remove and swap out if you want to use bagged coffee vs a KCup."
  • "The water tank is too SMALL, & the machine will stop working when there's 10% water left."
  • "The only negative I have is that you can't fit much more than a large mug under the brewer."
  • "The frothing wisk inside the frothing mug is not removable making it harder to ensure a 100% deep clean."
  • "The rubber plastic type seal near the bottom of the frother is sticking out."
  • "Durability is lacking when lifting and lowering the handle."
  • "The 'SMART' features are mega dumb, absolutely nothing smart about it."

  • "The frother works well btw."
  • "The frother works great, and this is a great manual brewer."

Cons:

  • "The milk frother doesn't froth enough and leaves the milk lukewarm."
  • "The frother doesn't frother any better than the previous version and can not be put in the dishwasher."
