A most unrighteous coffee...
Here's my experience. Having used about 30 pods thus far, over half of them "explode" inside my Keurig, leaking coffee grounds both inside the coffee maker and in my coffee cup. (See pictures.) My Keurig is clean, properly maintained and working well. All seals are in place and in good working order. These explosions happen on both strong brew and regular brew, as well as when attempting to make a 6, 8, or 10 ounce cup of coffee. When a Maud's Coffee Pod explodes, I clean up the mess, insert a pod from another company - Green Mountain, Starbucks, even Great Value from Wal-Mart - and there is never a problem. I am throwing the remaining 70 pods aways, as the crap shoot on explode/not explode is simply not worth it. Too bad, because when the pods actually work, the coffee is good. Lesson learned!

Variety doesn’t mean EQUAL numbers—quality control issues
Product tastes good for money. Company has best selection of decaf flavored coffee available. I ordered the variety pack of flavored decaf, which included some no -flavored coffees. Someone needs to start doing quality control—I got ONE vanilla almond; 3 French toast; 3 raspberry chocolate; 5 banana foster; 5 Jamaican rum yum; 12 salted caramel; 12 medium roast non-flavored; 12 dark roast; 12 light roast; and 15 hazelnut.

Worst K-Cup ever!
If you like cleaning your Keurig all the time this is the K-Cup for you!Please refer to the pictures I took this morning on 11/30/2018 in our home.When I ordered these for our company to use over the Thanksgiving holiday I thought GREAT investment.Unfortunately it isn’t because 1 out of 5 cups explode in your Keurig requiring you to clean the entire unit.Then you have to run a couple of hot water cups to get rid of the grounds stuck in places you can’t get to on the unit.It’s not a bargain when your constantly throwing away the pods due to defective pods, worse product bought thru Amazon ever!Amazon offers NO refund on this defective product so your just out $40.00. Even if you get them to work your LUCKY to get 4-6 ounces of coffee when you select 10-12 ounces. Save yourself TIME & MONEY & buy the name brands only, you’ll be glad you did.P.S. I meticulously use the descaler & change water filters on both our Keurig units.

Poor quality
I liked the flavor, but, the pods are cheap and defective. I have a new coffee machine and it doesn't have issues with other brands of pods. The 3 out of the 5 pods I used exploded in the coffee machine.

Tastes great but has quality control/empty cup issues
UPDATE: **The seller guaranteed the product and refunded me and the second time I purchased there was no quality issue. I also have noticed that there has been Prime product availability issues so maybe they are holding back on production until they get it right. I will say that it is BEST to buy from Amazon Prime if you want this product. Going direct to manuf back when the product was not available here was miserable. I would rather drink bad coffee than go direct again.**UPDATE2: I purchased the item a few times since my first review and have had NO ISSUES with cup fill since that first order.I really enjoy the flavor of this half caff and find it superior to both Green Mountain and Folgers. The only reason I will not give 5 stars is because there is a quality control problem. So far as I can tell, 3% of my cups have been empty. The first day I found an empty one was a very early and angry wake up call to me. It is also worth noting that the "full" cups seem to vary in how full the cups are, but they at least still will brew you some good tasting coffee.I think I am getting low and will give them another shot, but it would be a good strategy to browse through the cups and look for empty ones before the return/refund window is up, so that the manufacturer can be held accountable if there is a lot of missing product. I expected to see seller responses to reviews on here offering to make problems right, but sadly they seem to be silent.

I wanted more of the flavored coffees
I just received my coffee, so I haven't had a chance to taste it. My review is about the order itself. When I ordered it, I was looking for flavored decaf coffee, and was ok if there were a few non-flavored ones thrown in. However, the flavors I would most like to have (French toast roast, Jamaican rum yum, Raspberry chocolate and Hottie biscotti vanilla almond) were barely included. Here's what I received: 12 Maud's mellow mood, 12 Tall dark and handsome, 12 Dunk your donut shop, 15 Maud's sister Hazelnut, 12 Dreamy creamy salted caramel, 7 Fine bananas foster, 5 Hottie biscotti vanilla almond, 2 raspberry choco-latte, 2 Jamaican rum yum, and ONE French toast roast. Why couldn't it be more evenly divided, like maybe 8 of each kind? Very disappointed. If the quality of flavor makes up for the quantity letdown, I will adjust my rating.

Maud's Coffee
I just found a really good coffee in the single serve coffee pods! Maud's Coffee is both strong in flavor and tastes exactly like the flavor that they are. Some of the "Kueric-style" single-serve coffee pods taste watered down or not at all the flavor that is on the pod. I like flavored coffee, like vanilla roasts or hazelnut flavors, and some of the coffee pod brands taste diluted or not as the particular flavor that they are suppose to be? I will definitively buy Maud's again! Thank you for an exceptional product!A Big Coffee Lover!

Only buy if you want kitchen explosions
Not sure how they taste because the pods like to explode. What a waste of money. Do not buy unless you want to do some serious cleaning and possibly ruin your keurig. I cancelled my subscribe and save subscription to this immediately after trying to brew a few cups.Edit - a bit of time has passed since writing this review and I have yet to be contacted by the company with any sort of apology for their lacklustre product packaging. Just shows they don’t really care about their product quality and their customers, it’s all about the money. Save yourself the trouble and cash, buy different coffee.Gave it some more time to hear from the company and not a damn thing. Pieces of garbage. I added some more pictures because I want people to avoid this trash.

Coffee pod explodes!
I like the variety pack where you get several different flavours. However, I thought that, for the money charged, the flavours would be exceptional and they ar just OK. I also had a near disatser with one pod which burst in the Keurig machine and coffee grounds and a flood of water ended up everywhere. I had to clean it out which was very difficult to do and took a long time. The Keurig stopped working and I thought it was broken and we would have to buy another all because one coffee pod exploded. However, I left it overnight and the next morning it was working fine again. We have been using Keurig machines every day for several years and this is the first time we have ever had a coffee pod blow up on us! I will be reluctant to buy this product again.

Pleasingly different!
My review may not be as fair as one would like it to be...as I prefer strong coffee. That said, I will be judging other factors.The aroma factor is quite pleasant.I’ve tried many ‘flavoured’ coffees in the past, and they all seemed to smell the same way.Maud’s is different. Each flavour has its own unique smell and taste. I’ve never been fond of banana flavoured products...until now.Maud’s ‘Gone Banana’s Foster’ is Devine!If I could find a suitable milk replacement, I’m willing to bet it would taste like a banana shake or banana cream pie! But alas, I shall never know. Unless another kind soul tries it with milk and leaves a review? I’ve never much liked chocolate flavoured coffees or teas. Just not a big fan. However, their ‘Raspberry Choco Latte’ proved to be an exception. However, this combination would be better suited for a hot chocolate, rather than a coffee. ‘Cinnamon Roll With It’ was a pleasant experience as well. Again, with milk, I feel it would make for a better taste. ‘ Dreamy Creamy Salted Caramel’. I was actually quite surprised! I was bracing myself for a repugnant cup of Joe....but I needn’t have worried so much. It was quite refreshing.‘French Toast Roast’...has a unique taste, but I don’t think it tasted like French Toast. It was quite delicious however. Now for the coffees. This is why I gave only 4 stars. As mentioned above, I prefer strong coffee, so if you prefer weaker coffees...well...you’ve come to the right place.‘Tall, Dark & Handsome’ is what you would receive in most restaurants. Not bold by any means. It’s listed as a Dark roast. Maud’s Mellow Mood. Listed as a medium roast . If you like watered down coffee, then this is for you.And for those of you who like water...’Dunk Your Donut Shop’ is perfect for you. Again, I like STRONG coffee. So don’t let these negative remarks hold you back if you don’t like strong coffee.

explosive kpods?
I never heard of any coffee pod able to explode while brewing in Keurig machine. I wish I bought this before reading those helpful reviews (some of pods i ordered are already used) and now I am scared if some of the pods eventually explodes at my kitchen someday. I noticed the explosive pods began to happen quite a long ago, but since nothing has been resolved or collected back until today. I won't buy coffee from this brand again for its poor quality of service and resolutions. How could you make kpods explode.. quite surprising.

So glad I found this!
I am so impressed with this coffee. I drink a lot of coffee and haven't been able to find s good one for a long time, I wanted something a little stronger than the average pods. I ordered this and it is perfect. The strength is bang on! Not too strong and not weak. It has great flavor. I won't order any other brand from now on. It is exactly what I was looking for
