TY! this answers my question exactly! I would buy and take MY OWN Kcup if I worked at one of those places. I hate coffee, and it would spoil the taste of my tea.

I am going to invest in one! I think I want the mid ranged one. I dont need a timer to wake me up with fresh anything, but I would like to pick my cup size. The mini one doesnt allow you to choose between a 6oz cup and an 8 oz cup or a travel mug.

I also like the Cusinart one, that holds Kcups. it has a rinse feature, and does spit out hot water. Wahoo! I have been asking and asking and this is the first time I got my answer.
