Likes: small, easy to use, easy to clean, price is great, looks nice on the counter, not loud, drip plate doesn’t rust, shuts off after each cup and quickly starts back up when you want another cup, makes a cup at a time, has worked great for over 5 years and counting!!!! Cons: not the best for parties if everyone wants coffee at the same time, but no different than any other single serve. Not sure how hot it gets one way or another but I think it gets hot enough as I usually add cold water or ice so I can drink mydrink a little faster.I used to buy Keurigs every year but this little inexpensive item has worked amazingly well almost 6 years now, and I use it multiple times a day!

This is a great little coffee maker. It brews hot and fast. Coffee taste great. What I love the most is the size. Perfect to travel with or small spaces.

Ordered this to try instead of getting the KeurigK15 (a friend owns one and has some problems with it). It's my first single serve machine and here's my list of features with a value of 1-5 for each, 1 being worst and 5 being best:FEATURESgreat footprint size on counter - 5attractive style, although material in red color appears a bit cheap - 4very efficient removable drip tray - 5helpful distance between downspout and drip tray for large mugs/cups - 5well designed drainage of water around reservoir inlet portal - 5recessed holding area for 1.0 or 2.0 Kcups works perfectly and is easy to clean - 5locking mechanism knob on top is well designed, made, and secures completely for use - 5single cup/single use reservoir and function ensures water is clean and fresh eash time - 5**Overall satisfaction with product - 4.7-----------update 02/22/19------------Unit suddenly leaked from the inside and top when I ran it this morning making a mess everywhere of grounds, coffee, and water and won't run at all now. Not sure if this is just the lifespan of the coffeemaker or a defective unit, but I've been using it for about 2 kcups per day since I purchased it. That's still a pretty good deal, but of course I wish it lasted longer.---------update 03/13/19-----------After contacting the Seller and getting a very satisfactory resolution to the problem, I received my new unit and had a capsule burst in the unit (as seen in first pic). Argh....Because of these past and present experiences, I spent some time considering the operation and have some suggestions which may help to stop the problem from occurring in the future - no matter the type or brand of k-cup capsule being used.1. In some cases, it seems closing the lid/upper housing of the coffee maker once a k-cup is placed in the chamber is not enough to correctly align and completely pierce the bottom of the k-cup. This allows too much pressure from the incoming water being pumped in from the top of the capsule and often bursts the top seal of the k-cup.I've found that placing the k-cup in the chamber and then carefully manually pressing down the the sides of it to level and pierce the bottom of the k-cup results in a perfectly 'seated' k-cup that is completely flush with the raised lip surrounding the k-cup chamber and has a completely and adequately pierced bottom of the k-cup for liquid to exit.2. It also seems that with the amount of water being pumped into the pierced top of the k-cup, some pressure can build up that without a gasket or seal around the complete edge of the k-cup top can result in bursting the top seal or causing a leak that results in water/liquid coming out of the bottom of the coffee maker unit. I didn't take the unit apart so I'm not sure where/how this would be happening.I used a piece of spongy waterproof foam material (protective packaging sheet) with a thickness of 1/8 inch or about 3mm and cut a circle with a diameter of 1/2 inch larger than the k-cup capsule, so that 1/4 inch extended beyond the k-cup top all the way around. After placing the k-cup into the chamber and pressing it into place so that the bottom was completely pierced and the top was flush with the raised lip surrounding the k-cup chamber, I placed the foam ' gasket' on top of the k-cup so that it was centered and then carefully lowered the coffee maker lid/upper housing and then held the lid firmly shut while turning the lock on top of the lid.This allowed the sharp plastic insertion piece in the lid to pierce through the foam and into the k-cup, and also created a seal on the rest of the k-cup and around the edge where it meets the chamber lip with a very slight amount of pressure.I'm sure such a design could be built into the top of the upper housing - perhaps a foam or rubber gasket that extends from the existing rubber seal around the plastic inserting piece in the lid to just beyond the raised lip of the chamber and creating a liquid-proof seal.After testing carefully using the first step mentioned here along with the fabricated foam gasket, there were no leaks and the coffee exited the lower nozzle of the chamber quickly and easily. When opening the lid of the coffee maker afterwards, the interior around the chamber was clean and dry.I then used 5 different brands of k-cups and made 12 cups of coffee using the methods described here. There were no leaks, malfunctions, and the interior around the chamber was clean and dry each time I opened the lid after the brewing process was complete.Now I can continue using this little powerhouse with no worries of leaks. 👍😎☕

I had the very first consumer oriented Keurig machine. I had it before anyone jumped on board the K-cup train. All my friends and family mocked me for paying 50 cents for a k-cup for one cup of coffee. I just loved the commercial units we had in the office and grabbed the first k-cup machine available for the home. The convenience, the zero cleanup factor. Love it. Now many years later, everyone has a k-cup machine. Everyone that mocked me. Well, that faithful old K-cup brewer finally stopped working properly. It was built like a tank and lasted approx two decades!So what to buy? Well this old one took up a lot of space on the counter. So I started looking at the smaller Keurig machines. Every review on all the new keurig machines pointed to poor quality and short lifespan. I dont know if I will get another twenty years out of my next coffee brewer, but I dont want it to last just a few months either! All of the info pointed to a real drop in quality from the K brand.I didnt even realize that other companies made brewers for the K-cups. I did some research, and discovered the Chulux! Plus it is my favorite color, Orange! At one-third the price of the comparable K brand units, this machine has some awesome reviews. So I took a shot and bought it.Its been a few weeks, so I have had a chance to really get to know this machine. It literally takes about 2 minutes to brew a cup of coffee. It takes up a very tiny space on my counter. It makes great coffee! And with no water tank, the water stays clean and fresh. No stale taste with old water. 12 ounces is plenty for most mugs. My old machine was only 8 max. I really love this machine so far.Downsides? The knob on top that locks the unit for brewing is cheap plastic, and I am unsure how it would hold up. But when I examined the new small units from the K brand, they were even more cheap feeling. Especially in the mechanism that opens and closes the k-cup chamber. So i will consider this one on par in this area.So far so good. I really dig this coffee maker! I may buy another one for my RV!Well, now Im gonna go brew me a cup!

I’m in love with this little coffee maker! It makes a perfect cup of coffee every time.In reply to what others may complain about:Water Reservoir has to be refilled for each cup. Not a deal breaker for me since I was looking for something small and compact for traveling. I use a small measuring cup from dollar tree. I like a stronger coffee and my husband likes it a little weaker. It’s easy to measure out how many ounces we each want.It takes longer to brew than the Keurig. I don’t notice it taking much longer. By the time I finish brushing my teeth my coffee is hot and ready.On average we make about 4-6 cups a day when we are traveling and this tiny little powerhouse of a coffee / Kcup brewer is perfect! It packs away nicely. It’s lightweight. You can use your own reusable filter. And let’s not forget how cute it is!! In fact, my husband thought it was a kids toy at first 🤣 He wasn’t sure of the orange color either but I was going for a 70’s vibe so I won😁

The product worked fine for six months, but then it started leaking from the top. At first, I thought it was clogged, and it was. However, even after cleaning it according to the instructions in the manual, it still started leaking again.I contacted Amazon customer service since there wasn’t an option to directly reach the company. Amazon provided me with the company’s contact information and suggested I email them. I did email the company, and they replied, but I’m still waiting for a follow-up to my latest message.

I specifically bought this coffee maker for my RV. We dry camp a lot, and although I have sufficient solar I only have a 1100 watt inverter. At 800 watts, this unit seems to run well on my 1100 watt inverter. For 12 ounces of water, I figure the brew time is more like 5 minutes than 3 as advertised, which I calculate to use about 5.5 amp-hours total from the batteries. My solar can easily make that up in 20 minutes in good sun. It is way more convenient than boiling water with gas every time I want a cup of coffee or tea. As for the product itself, it is easy to use and doesn't take much space on the counter top, which is also a concern in an RV. My only complaint would be that tall travel mugs do not fit even with the drip tray out, so you might have to pour your coffee from a shorter mug into the travel mug. But other than that this product is ideal for RV use. I specifically bought it rather than a Keurig Mini because the Keurig, although quicker and able to hold a taller travel mug, draws 1425 watts when heating, which is a lot unless you have a large battery/inverter system.

After 4th try it started working. I think the air has to come out of the pump before it can work.Very small. Plastic smell went away after 20 brews. Works with my 600 watt portable power device, just take a bit longer to heat the water.

Está muy bonita yo la compré en color rosa, está chiquita pero es el tamaño perfecto ya que solo es de una taza, lo único q no me gustó fue que no le puedes poner cualquier cápsula:( le tiene que quedar bien y por eso le quito 2 estrellaspor otro lado menciona que no trae el filtro reutilizable, no sé qué pasó pero en la mía si venía un filtro e igual yo había comprado los filtros aparte pero bueno si me lo incluía aunque reitera varias veces que no jajaEl café si lo filtra muy bien y sabe muy rico así que cumple su función y lo de las cápsulas pues sólo buscar unas que si le queden (que si las hay)en fin es muy buena opción si vives solita como yo y eres la única q toma café, muy fácil de usar y a simple vista la cafetera se ve súper cute😍

Great little machine for a single cup of coffee. I used to use a french press but always made more than I needed. This machine helps to make the one cup I need - it's perfect! Would buy it again in a heartbeat.
