Default Do you use a Keurig? Like it?

Everyone I know who owns a keurig complains that, over time, the output
begins to decline. What starts as a full cup of coffee whittles down to
half a cup and sometimes less. They give up and get a new machine after
a while. Considering the premium involved in procuring these machines,
it sounds like much too high a cost than is worth.

I've had many keurig cups from various locations (friends houses,
theaters, work) and I've never had a cup of any variety where I simply
had to have it again. They were all average.

For me, a regular old drip coffee maker with good beans will make an
excellent cup of coffee provided the amount of beans is appropriate for
my taste.
