I received this coffee maker about a week ago. It gets hot, fast. I have had multiple Keurigs and they have never reached temp that quick. It brewed wonderfully, however the temp of the brewer did concern me as it was very hot to even get close to. The size of the pot is perfect as I'm the only coffee drinker on the house. I really like the ability to brew right into a coffee cup as well as a tall travel mug. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
