keurig?

We are buying one for my FIL - what accessories do we need to get with it?

I keep seeing the reusable filter and a pack of water filters or something like that. Are either of these a must have? We want to make it as easy as possible for him

If FIL likes regular coffee, I'd get the little loose coffee filter for him.  Does he have purified water (like from a fridge or something)?  If so, I wouldn't bother with the water filters.  I just fill a pitcher of water from the fridge, and dump it in. 

Also, if he drinks a lot of coffee, some of the keurig's offer a bigger water container.  I'm the solo coffee drinker, so I didnt need that, but I guess depending on how many cups he'd drink over a few days, I might consider that.

Costco has some great deals! That's where I got DH's. It comes with a universal filter thing (I think).

Sam's also has a good deal.  It's a single cup maker with multiple sizes and a reservoir.  It comes with the loose basket that you fill yourself and a 36 piece sampler.  It was $130.  I asked for it for Christmas.

Awesome! Thanks for the info!

I would also recommend some kind of organizer for the K-cups.  I got DH a Keurig for C-mas and I am also getting him the one from BB&B - it's basically a "drawer" that the Keurig sits on and the K-cups go in the drawer.

This is what I was going to suggest.  We have this one and I love it, but it wouldn't quite fit under our kitchen cabinets, so that limited our options of where to put it.  Still worth it, though.

Oh, good call!  I wish I would have gotten the little drawer one - but I have the merry go round one (it was a gift).  It just takes up counter space, but it does get used every day.  And FYI, don't forget BB&B carries the cups and accessories, so you can buy everything with a coupon.
