Why I caved and got a Keurig

Monday 23 January 2017
Hey guys,

So a few months ago i purchased a keurig! I must say it was the best decission i ever made. I went back and forth a lot, but my boyfriend pushed me to buy it.
In the summer curtis worked the night shift. I would always have coffee ready for him when he came home. Most days he would come home exhausted and fall asleep with a full cup of coffee in his hand. I ended up dumping out a whole pot of coffee most days. That is when i first presented the idea of getting a keurig. I could make one cup at a time and we would be saving more money. He would wake up around lunchtime, or later so some days he wouldnt have coffee.
Then he switched to a daytime shift. So we went back to our coffee pot brewing ways.
 As any mom of a toddler knows, by late afternoon fatigue sets in. I found myself half awake, just trying to make it through the afternoon. i never wanted to brew a whole pot of cup so the keurig was starting to look pretty good.

As you can see there are multiple reasons why i loved the keurig brewing system. It was convenient and customizable to each person. We mostly use the keurig on weekends. We use it for our morning coffee and sometimes in the afternoon if we need a pick me up. We have a single serve resevoir, and for now it is perfect. Since we so not use it daily, we dont need water to sit in the machine, which could possibly be for a week at a time.
I only had one issue with the keurig since i bought it, which was water leaking all over my counter. I called customer service and they were able to resolve my issue and taught me about my machine. I learned you need to use room temperature water. It takes less time to warm up and will not leak all over the counter.
Pods can be quite expensive, costing $10 for a box of 12. If you have a costco membership it can be a lifesaver! I did the math and i would save $20 when purchasing a box from there.
All in all i love it! I wish i had purchased a keurig sooner and i definitely see what all the hype is about! It is fast, convenient and there are so many drink options, there is something for everyone!
