For years, Keurig marketed their popular K-cups as recyclable, but they recently settled a $10M class action lawsuit arguing the company misrepresented that claim.

Customers who bought Keurig K-cup coffee pods in the last several years may be able to claim some cash from a court settlement.Customers who bought Keurig K-cup coffee pods in the last several years may be able to claim some cash from a court settlement.Keurig announced in 2016 that it would start making recyclable pods, but most waste management companies don't accept K-cups because they're too small and often dirty.

"This is a false advertising," said Kathleen Smith. "If your product truly cannot be recycled in most places you need to change your labeling."We started investigating and learned that, in fact, contrary to the company's representations, the pods were not recyclable in any meaningful fashion," said Howard Hirsch with Lexington Law Group.

Keurig told ABC News that they stand by the original wording on the packaging and that "clearly communicating how to recycle our K-cup pods where accepted is a responsibility that we take seriously."

The lawsuit is for “Keurig Cups” not the machines. It should not be a lawsuit but order to have the company revise the cups to ♻️ recyclable. That’s it. And yes it helps the ecosystem. We are a bit behind from other countries in ♻️

I drank it once .. it taste like 🥴🥴🥴 instant coffee.. totally disgusting anyway..

Im in tell me how? Have a one of this machine for 5 years now , but not proof or receive for the boxes 📦 I buy in the pass🙃

Exactly where do I put in my claim for my $3 settlement?

A waste of the court system’s time in my opinion. It’s sad that a company has to settle claims like this.

I got a picture of it from years ago, but no receipt, how can I claim it?

Mine stopped working to

This is exactly what’s wrong with this country, everyone sues for the most stupid ridiculous shit. This is only going to make the cost go up. We will pay for this not the company.

I don’t have any problems with mine..Works fine..

I bought a Keurig machine. Used it once and the second time it stopped working. That was the last time I ever used a Keurig or K-cups. I'd like to know where my $$$ is for the machine.

Done. 5 bucks is 5 bucks.

It’s only for a few bucks not even worth it per house .

And exactly how do we show proof of purchase from 2016? Show them a photo of my Keurig or something?

Big plans for my $5

Will everyone get $1 in settlement money?
