I used CLR on our Keurig and it fried the heat element. They sent us a new machine for free and told me to use vinegar from now on.

I found a descaler at Canadian Tire made by urnex .Expensive but it worked...$8.00

Yeah, I agree. I don't have one of these machines, but I would think that CLR would do a lot more damage than vinegar. It would also be more dangerous, considering you would never be able to fully rinse it out.
