Find Out What You Need To Know About The B145 OfficePRO Keurig Coffee Maker Before You Buy

I recently tried the Keurig B145 OfficePRO coffee maker for a period of one month. I did this so that I could write a detailed review of this Keurig coffee maker model for consumers thinking about buying the B145. My usual coffee maker was put away into storage and the Keurig B145 OfficePRO coffee maker was used for all my coffee-making needs.I did this to get a clear idea of how this Keurig coffee maker performs with normal daily usage. Here is my review of the B145 OfficePRO Keurig Coffee Maker.
The Keurig B145 OfficePRO coffee maker is very reasonably priced, for a Keurig coffee maker that is. This unit will cost you about $120 and that includes an 18 count sampler pack of k-cups. That makes this the least expensive full-sized Keurig coffee maker, with its price being very close to the budget-buy B31 mini brewer that Keurig offers.
I unpacked my new Keurig B145 OfficePRO coffee maker and carefully looked it over. It has the rounded, sleek shape and all-over modern styling Keurig is well-known for. The black finish is not quite as glossy as the black on the Keurig B30 and the all-over look is not quite as high-end as the Keurig B70, but this coffee maker does look good. This coffee maker feels solid, sturdy and well-made. There is nothing cheap in the look or feel of this machine. There is a 48 ounce water reservoir. There are three cup size options with this Keurig coffee maker: 6 ounces, 8 ounces and 10 ounces. There is not an LCD readout like the ones found on other full-sized Keurig coffee makers.

I brewed my first cup of coffee in the Keurig B145 OfficePRO coffee maker. It is very loud compared to the B70 (which Keurig bills as the quietest residential model they sell) and the Keurig mini brewers I have used in the past. The noise doesn’t last that long; it is over in about 40 seconds, and the loudest of it is done in about 5 seconds. But it is quite loud, especially in a quiet house first thing in the morning while the rest of my family is sleeping. This is something to keep in mind if you want this Keurig coffee maker for a quiet home or office.
I noticed one surprising issue during the review period. I had bought a reusable coffee filter made by Keurig during a review period for a different Keurig coffee maker. This reusable filter is made by Keurig for use with their machines, it is not an after market part from another company. I did like the option of using my own freshly ground beans when I had a little extra time on my hands. That filter is not compatible with the Keurig B145 OfficePRO coffee maker. This is not a huge deal for me or my family, since our favorite thing about these coffee makers is the variety and the quality of the coffee in the k-cups. I have since learned that two different companies, Ekobrew and Solofill, make a reusable cup that is compatible with this machine. Strangely, there is not a compatible option offered by the Keurig company at this time.
Overall, my family and I really enjoyed using the B145 OfficePRO Keurig coffee maker during this review period. I think at this price point, it is a great value for a machine with a large reservoir. The noise level makes this Keurig coffee maker less attractive in my eyes, but it costs about $80 less than the quieter B70. We really enjoyed having the back-up water reservoir. It is very convenient to have hot water ready to go when you want to brew a cup, or cups, of coffee in a hurry. It is nice to see this option in a more budget-friendly model offered by Keurig.
