Buy this exact coffee pot! So quick and so easy and the coffee is hot like it should be!
I am so happy with this coffee pot! It makes one cup at a time and it’s hot and so fast so easy to make. I love it. You can make your own pod with the extra pod that came in the box or you can use pod that you buy from Amazon. I am really happy as my old coffee pot did not make hot coffee please thank the maker Jeanne Sweeney.

Decent inexpensive single cup coffee maker
Pretty good inexpensive single cup coffee maker. It makes decent coffee and the reusable pod works great so you can use existing ground coffee versus having to buy k-cups.The down side is the light indicating that the coffee maker is powered and/or brewing stopped working after a few weeks, which is annoying. However, it does still make coffee just fine.Two noticeable things/features include the following. The reusable pod needs to be washed with soap after each use otherwise the mesh that holds back the grounds get plugged. The rubber seal around the needle which pushes water into the k-cup must be clear or it makes a mess inside the coffee maker with the grounds.

K-cups Are Not For Me 🙁
Edited 3-10-2025K-cups are designed to make only 6-8 ounces of coffee. This is not enough. Fortunately, this maker has a basket filter for bulk grinds. I will need to open two pods to make one 12-ounce serving.Keep this in mind if you’re considering a K-pod system unless you drink very little or weak coffee.I had previously given this one star, due to the terrible design and lack of instructions on how to open the filter pod. It is not immediately obvious, even to someone as mechanical as myself, repairing things like automobiles, televisions, washing machines, being an electronics tech for over 40 years, etc.I finally had to pry this thing open with a dental pick tool. After this, the method to open would appear to be to hold it in both hands and press your thumb up on the plastic plastic piece shown on the left side of my photo.The other thing I will alert you to when you open this coffeemaker and wonder why the K-pod holder appears to be missing is that they pack it into the water reservoir.So, these annoyances aside, how does the Horavie K1500 fare? Being retired and living alone with absolutely no friends, I finally realized that I’ll likely never be making coffee for anyone other than myself and I typically brew 12 ounces at a time. The compact footprint of the K1500 takes very little real estate from my very small counters. The fact that I can just brew straight into my thermal cup means no carafe to clean or pour from. The K-pods mean I don’t need to bend a cone filter’s edges, grind coffee beans, or measure in grounds. These may seem like trivial things, but once you retire, you start thinking about ways to reduce the little daily chores. At least, I have. This is why I’ve “Smartitized” the house, automating practically everything: lights, fans, heaters, stereo, television, etc.Aside from opening the filter pod, this K1500 is easy to deploy. The first thing is just to add 12 ounces of water to it, place a cup in the stand, an push the button on top. I like the fact they put it on top instead of on the side of the base. Very convenient.Empty the first “brewed” water and grab a K-pod. I’m assuming this is the primary reason people buy this coffeemaker. This is my first experience with K-pod makers. I would never buy the overpriced Keurig units, especially aftwr discovering they actually put cameras in some of them to try and prevent consumers from using other than Keurig coffee pods. What a jerk move. By the way, if you own one of these, just save the foil tops from Keurig pods and tape them to the top of your other brand pods.This K1500 does indeed brew a 12-oz cup in under 2 minutes. There is, of course, no hot plate, so I advise using an insulated cup. The blue one in my photo has a capacity of 16 ounces and works well. I also bought it on Amazon. The unit turns itself off. I add my sugar before brewing, so I need only to stir and snap on the lid.The temperature of the coffee is slightly on the lower side. The best coffee is brewed between 190 and 205 degrees Fahrenheit. This maker does not come close to reaching these temperatures. I measured the stream with a laser thermometer and found it to be around 160-165 degree at its hottest. This should be adequate for most people.The first coffee pods I purchased are Mel’s Drive-In Diner Blend. I will not review them until I’ve tasted them more, but the initial opinion is okay.

Great Coffee Pot
Makes great coffee. Nice and hot and better than the Keurig I had. Make one cup time. Very pleased with this product.
