What is the best large-size K-cup coffee maker?
I have had the Keurig mini-plus for about 16 months now, and am looking to upgrade. I know K-cups aren't perfect, but for a 1-2 cup/day user, it's really convenient. I'm looking to upgrade to one of the bigger models that comes with a tank (instead of having to fill every time) and has other features like a water-filter, rinse-mode, etc. I've noticed that now a few other manufacturers have joined the fray: Cuisinart and Breville. Any wooters with experience with either of those models and/or the Keurig B70/77 or 60, etc., I'd love to hear the likes and dislikes of them. Oh, and when is home.woot going to have some cheap ones again?

I have a B70... the only help I've got is that since I use a Brita filter for all my drinking water and fill my Keurig with water from it, a filter built into the Keurig would be useless for me and an additional expense too.
It feels to me like the companies that offer K Cups are merging and the selection is shrinking (I think most of those brands are owned by Green Mountain at this point).
2 major patents for Green Mountain concerning the K-cups are expiring later this year. I would imagine we will see K-cups for 25 cents or less everywhere at the end of the year.
Oh, I have the B60. Get the B40, B60, or B70. Slight differences in functions and internal components, but mostly the same. They all make the same coffee, with a few minor differences in size. B40 is the best price-performance of the 3 IMHO. If you can find a deal, it's worth it. Try BBB and their 20% off coupon. BBB will ALWAYS take something back, even outside of 1 year. Great company. If you have a Kohl's card, stack it with Kohl's Cash.
My Cuisinart has been broken more than it has worked. I would advise going with a Kuerig branded appliance.
