IT IS ALL THAT I EXPECTED.  NOW I CAN MAKE A SINGLE CUP OF COFFEE WITH ABSOLUTELY NO FUSS AND BOTHER.  NO FILTERS TO WORRY ABOUT AND AN EASY, THOROUGH  CLEANUP.  AND BEST OF ALL, I CAN USE THE BRANDS OF COFFEE I ENJOY,  NOT THE PRICEY PODS THE OTHER SINGLE CUP BREWERS REQUIRE.  IT' S A GEM -- HIGH QUALITY WITH SUPERB RESULTS.  A GREAT BREWER AT AN AFFORDABLE PRICE.  I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT TO ALL COFFEE LOVERS.
