Not true. If you turn it off with the switch all the preprogrammed settings are saved. Pull the plug and all is lost.

OK. Still an expensive Mr Coffee. I don't need to program mine.

the Mini Keurig doesn't have to be programed,.....but besides that, the Keurig isn't an expensive Mr. Coffee, nor is the Mr. Coffee a cheap Keurig....... comparing them is like comparing apples to oranges, the only thing they have in common is they both make coffee, but in totally different ways, ....... and everyone has the choice of which they prefer, if they prefer either one at all, ......but I repeat, the Keurig isn't an expensive Mr. Coffee, we have both and the Mr. Coffee hasn't been touched since we bought the first Keurig five yrs. ago and now we have a Mini in the Micro Lite

Hey, I was just trying to start another great FRF debate. The bike rack debate was getting old!

Keurig is the dumbest thing in the world, it's an unbelievably expensive coffee pot that you have to buy really expensive coffee for.

BTW, I'm a moron, we own 2 of them. Yep one in the house one in the trailer.

We had been planning on going with a Keurig in the MH when we buy our rig next year, but then we (well, the DW/decision maker) discovered the Aeropress. Makes the best tasting cu of coffee, it's quick and easy relative to pour-overs or french presses, and it's easy to clean up. Only runs $30, too, and, as far as we can tell, makes a great tasting cup of coffee no matter what grounds you use!

We bought one about a month ago to have for when we buy our rig - now we've put our Keurig in storage, use the Aeropress every morning, and I've been told we'll be buying a second one for the MH...

AEROPRESS® or Bed Bath and Beyond if you want to check it out...

I am going to look for the Aeropress at BB & B. We have a little 4 cup Mr. Coffee drip machine, but after using a Keurig in the house for years, I get anxious for my morning coffee and don't like the long wait or the messy clean-up of the Mr. Coffee.

Well, since this thread has resurrected, I'll suggest this:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Works great. I supplement my tried and true camp percolator with this for quick single cups.

Messy cleanup? I have a 4-cup Mr. Coffee. I rinse the carafe and dump the filter grounds in the trash. Done.

You must be using the non-biodegradable plastic cups, as I believe the re-usable ones require some kind of "messy cleanup."

Also, you may save some time on the first cup, but now you've got to wait for the Keurig to make the 2nd/3rd/4th cups, while I just pour from the carafe. Seems like a wash to me.

I have the large version and love it.... Fill it with water and I'm good for abt 8 cups or so... I keep it on the counter and it travels great there....

One thing I didn't see mentioned, it has such a short cord on it. I had to put in an outlet by the stove for it. It was a win win because it gave us a plug for the toaster oven when we need it. All my other plugs are under cabinet so the first time we used it I had to stack boxes under it just to plug it in. Now it's a permanent fixture on the countertop.
Also my wife drinks flavored coffees and I don't so the individual cups work perfect for us.
This is what we have. I will say when we camped in our pup last fall it did not like the cold. I left it outside on my camp kitchen (under the awning) and had to bring it inside to warm up before it would even work

They are very portable and the coffee is consistent. We use a reusable pod so we can just fill it up with coffee every morning!

we use the mini as well. Like others have said not quite as automatic but all the water gets out and we've been using this one for over 2 years. We leave it in the camper over the winter. It gets freezing on Cape Cod over the winter

To me, they're a little pricey, but I can say one thing- I was having my truck serviced at our local RV dealer, and they had a Keurig in the waiting room. One of the best cups of coffee I've had in a long, long time.
