Keurig + K-Cups

- Have your coffee in under a minute for those quick coffee breaks!
- Can cost up to four times more than traditional coffee pots
- Though more expensive, it saves time which can sometimes be more important than the cost!
- K-cups are recyclable
- Most Keurig models are compact and can fit almost any workspace countertop
