This one of the best sampler boxes I’ve received. They came loose in a sealed brown box. The cups were all in great shape and none were dented, punctured or damaged in any way. There were 40 different kcups with much variety to choose from. I’ve already tried the Crazy Cups - Chocolate Coconut Dream and the Eight O’Clock Hazelnut both cups were fresh and taste great. I love the Crazy Cups one and even the names of the ones I haven’t tried yet sound yummy. I’ve outlined a breakdown of the cups I received below by maker and then flavor. I paid the one time purchase price of $25.99 which breaks down to .65¢ per cup and I usually get 1 large cup and 1 small cup of coffee per kcup. If you like variety and trying something new and different I highly suggest this sampler. There wasn’t one tea or cocoa. I wouldn’t have minded one of those but it was listed as a coffee sampler.

*I paid full price for this item and will be using it for personal use in my home. I hope my review has helped you in some way. If you have any questions please feel free to ask me below. Thanks for reading.
Great variety of coffee, some of them don't work with the new keurig. What I did to remedie this problem was take a bit of the covering off of a keurig 2.0 cup and place it where the reader is, this tricks the machine and allows it to brew.
I've gotten other samplers but this was by far the best one. It was a nice mix of plain coffee with light and dark roasts and then lots of flavored coffee! I love that I received coffee from companies I've never heard of. I also got some crazy flavors ( cookie dough and mocha fudge) I received this the next day after I ordered it with standard shipping. I'll buy again! Thanks!
I'm always a little hesitant to purchase these variety packs, and it seems they're usually cheap for a reason (coffee isn't that great). I only purchased this sampler pack because I saw a lot of common names I recognized, and others that I thought would probably be of good quality. I'm not crazy about the Crazy Cups or Eco cups, which have a different cup format.
The Crazy Cups and Eco cups don't always work in our Keurig for some reason. Sometimes they do, but sometimes it doesn't recognize them as being able to use. We have a keurig 2.0. It seems to be about 50/50 - they work half the time. When they don't work, we have to empty the k-cup into one of those reusable plastic k-cups and do it that way, so it's kind of a pain. Plus, the Crazy cups have really weird flavors, like banana. Some of them are okay.
The other flavors though were generally good. Nothing too weird or out of the ordinary. Included known brands like Green Mountain, Starbucks, Caribou, Eight O' Clock, Donut Shop, and so on. It's kind of fun to try different flavors and brands and decide what you like best. Overall, happy with this purchase. Just be wary of the Crazy Cups and EcoKups brands.
Let's get the bad out of the way - the description is misleading. If you have a machine that requires the QR code on the KCup lid, DO NOT BUY THIS. There were about 6 QR coded cups. If you have a machine that doesn't care if there's a QR code, hey, bombs away. As for the coffee - there's some freaky stuff in this box... I mean some off-off-OFF brand stuff... and some of it was... well, it was coffee so it had that going for it, which is nice. A couple were bad - tasted old and gnarly. Some of the cups are actually really good, though, and several couple were great - the Wolfgang Puck French toast and the Pinon coffees were outstanding and there was even a Tim Horton's in there. If you're looking to experiment with a lot of brands and flavors, this is a good one to get. Just beware the QR code issue.

While this was a very comprehensive selection of coffees and roasts, I wish I'd read a little more carefully as I didn't really want the flavored coffees. Now what we got came in plain box with all of the different brands and types just dropped inside. No damage and everything arrived in fine shape. The expiration dates were all over the map, however. Some only had 2 months left on them while others were good for over a year. All of the coffees tasted fresh with no "off odors or tastes."
I really didn't think I'd use the K-cups because of the price compared to a regular pot of coffee, but since my better half and I swill the stuff we have found that it's more economical to just make one cup when we want it rather than a partial pot. Our Hamilton Beach 2 Way pot allows us to use our favorite ground coffee if we just want to make one cup and with this assortment, we can try just about every brand out there to see what we like before dropping $$ on a box full of something we really don't care for. Great Buy and highly recommended from a professional coffee addict
I had this in subscribe and save. It was a really good quality and so many different kinds of coffee to sample. Most of the brands I had never had before, or even heard of.
I kept a list of all the coffees I got and what I thought of them after I tried them. After the box was nearly gone I noticed that I loved all of the cups I'd received from one specific brand. I changed my subscription to that instead. It happened to be one of those brands I'd never heard of before and I can't buy locally.
I would certainly recommend this to anyone wanting to try out different types of coffees or brands. It would also make a really great gift for someone who has a coffee maker that uses the cups.
Very pleased with this product! Ordered it as a gift for my dad and he's so excited. I read some reviews where pods were busted, they had multiples, and that there wasn't enough "variety" in the variety pack. My experience was not like this. I ordered the normal coffee variety pack since my dad's not a huge fan of tea, cider, or decaf. I got exactly 40 k-cups and each one was different! There are some multiples of brands but no flavor is the same. I did get one great value cup, which I rolled my eyes at, but 1 out of 40 isn't bad!
Packaging was great. I ordered other things also so this came in its own box within another box so it was definitely secure. The second picture is how they arrived, all jumbled together. The first picture is just a small sample of the different varieties I received.
I ordered this sampler pack for Father's Day. Ordered it a week before Father's Day and it didn't arrive until the week AFTER so about two weeks total. The shipping itself was relatively fast but it took forever for them to "process my order." The shipping time wasn't a huge deal to me but just be aware.
I would definitely consider ordering these again since they're a great price and a fantastic variety!
i have ordered this 3 consecutive times because i like the variation and surprise of a new coffee that i might fall in love with. I am reducing stars to 4 because this has some decaf occasionally, has a few teas in there and a few powdered drinks made by vendors like swiss miss or entenmanns, for example, that are not coffee, but a powdered milk beverage of some sort. Please stick to coffee. And I recommend that the vendor provide separate options for ordering only coffee with caffeine, only decaf, and/or a mixed box of both kinds of coffee. I only want caffeinated coffee. I would never provide anything but coffee in this sampler as per the label of what is being purchased. Note to buyers, you get different kinds of coffee each time. I will order again with the hopes that the seller takes recommendations.
I purchased this as a way to find what K-cups I do and don't like. I'm about halfway through the pack and so far so good. There's about three or four that I found excellent and will purchase when I need more coffee. There was a few that I flat out didn't like, such as Marley Coffee's Spice Root or the Cinnabon one, which in my opinion didn't taste like a Cinnabon at all. However, everyone has different likes and dislikes so what I didn't like, someone else may love so it's not something to hold against the seller. hank you for making this wonderful sampler so that I didn't have to buy a pack of K cups for $10+ just to find out that I didn't like them and either have to force myself to use them or throw them out if it was really gross.
