What I did like about the product?
I want to point out in this Keurig k55 review that in my opinion, it is one of the most efficient coffee makers I have personally handled for quenching my thirst for strong brews.
And, since I can’t sum up the functionality of this device up in one word, here are all the things that I admire about it.
1. Performance
The k55 offers you a hassle-free, sweet and swift performance speed with no complication involved whatsoever. It will efficiently brew four 4 K-cup pods ranging anywhere from 6,8 and 10 ounces respectively. Do use the 6 ounces brew size on the unit if you want to have the strongest brew off of it.
This coffee-maker will give you just a little over 6 cups of steaming coffee, before requiring for you to refill the unit. That’s all thanks to its 48 ounces water reservoir that is a bit larger than most other standard coffee maker unit reservoirs.
It indeed saves a lot of time for me in the morning, which is why anybody should get a gadget to begin with. It dispenses filtered hot water at just the turn of the handle and also comes with 2 additional filters, simplifying your coffee-making chore.
2. Design and Quality
The unit is designed to give you comfort with complete functionality. The water tank is removable and exposes ample surface of the interior for you the efficiently clean the whole thing.
One of the things that made me get this one is that it comes with a self-descaling procedure along with a users’ manual. This is an essential part of any coffee-maker that ensures longevity of the shelf-life of the device. It also prevents the taste of your coffee from getting impaired, even ruling out the risk of contamination.
All you have to do is follow the manual for starting up the descaling process of this coffee maker and let it do its job. No worrying or fretting for cleanliness, yet just good coffee for you to enjoy!
The k55 also includes an auto-shutoff feature that switches off the maker if you have not used it within 2 hours. This greatly hacks the electricity bills and helps to save on energy.
I love the sleek design of this coffee maker; it neither takes too much counter-space nor is too heavy to move around. The finish is great, and the overall unit is very user-friendly to work with.
