I don't need a $350.00 coffee maker to brew my Sumatran Reserve. I thoroughly enjoy the fine taste from my $80.00 Keurig. To each his own I guess.
I don't disagree with you. But the long-term cost of Kuerig will surely not be less than my alternative.
Comparisons are always interesting. We buy a high dollar RV, a $50K truck, endure hundreds of dollars monthly for TV/Internet/Cell Phones/Insurances, cheerfully hand over our credit card for $20 to $50 per night for campsites, and many many other expensive luxuries. Yet somehow the high cost for a nice coffee maker is too excessive (an appliance that gets used daily), or we find it absurd that we should spend a $100 more to get better tires, or we put off roof maintenance because the sealer is pricey, or we start a thread on RV.net about why a certain campground has laundry facilities that cost $1 or $2 more than we think it should...
I could care less to bash anyone's choices...I have a Technivorm at home and a $25 basic function Mr. Coffee in the RV. And yes, I can easily tell the difference.
