Keurig Experience

I was given a beautiful Keurig coffee maker as a gift. Being a coffee lover, I was thrilled. But sadly, my experience with it has not been a good one. I rarely share negative information, but I feel this is important.
My Keurig worked well and the coffee pods made it so easy, although they were expensive. So I bought a reusable filter for it and all was right with the world. But then, when it was time to clean the system, I followed the directions, yet it didn't work when putting it back together.
I was lucky that the store allowed me to exchange it, and life went on again. But the second one did the same thing. The instructions say to take out the removable filter when descaling, but then the water won't pass through and it doesn't finish cleaning or allow coffee to be made. So i took the second coffee maker back and exchanged it AGAIN. Interestingly, the store clerk said that they have had several people return their Keurigs.
I am now on my THIRD Keurig, and I am debating if I should keep it or simply exchange it for a different kind of coffee maker. For an appliance which is very expensive, it is ridiculous that they seem to be so much trouble, and I don't feel I could ever recommend them to anybody. I am currently using my $2 Melita drip filter, and it's working as well as anything.
