Some people think the tubing in Keurig's can harbor bacteria (which I am sure they can) but I clean mine often with vinegar and have had no problem so far.

I was told by another website that they harbor bacteria. I'm assuming because they hold water for a while but I really don't know the exact reason. I switched to a French press and sometimes just drink instant coffee.
