Keurig K-Duo Essentials Moonlight Gray Single-Serve K-Cup Coffee Maker

This Review Is For a Keurig K-Duo Essentials Coffee Maker, For the Single Serve K-Cup Pod Lover or those who want a cup of coffee from a Carafe. As always my reviews are fair and honest, and non bias, to give a potential customer an objective review, the good and or bad if any. I have had many a Keurig Coffee Makers, from the very first basic one to the more fancy with light up water display and clock, with a strong feature. The only minor issue is not having a clock or display which I like to look at. But the most important feature, is how great a cup of coffee a coffee maker makes. I have to be honest I was skeptical about this coffee maker making a good cup of coffee with the Carafe Feature, or the K-Pod. But to my amazement was pleasantly surprised, and honesty this coffee maker makes a better cup of coffee with the K-Pod, then my fancy Coffee Maker. I absolutely love the option of having both features, of a Carafe, for when you have company over, or the K-Pod feature, for those who can choose which K-Pod they want. This is absolutely great for a coffee lover like myself. I will use the carafe part for when we have company, but my go too for everyday is the K-Pod and I am stock up with Keurig K-Pods. I have own nothing but Keurig Coffee Makers, because the quality, they are durable, take a licking and keep on ticking at least mine have. They seem to last for quite a while, and this one is no exception, easier to operate, and fast at giving me my first cup of coffee. I like the fact that the height of this Keurig Coffee Maker is not as high as some of the other models. And that it is easier to fill the water reservoir because when you take off the lid it gives you more room for adding the water. As with some of the other models it has a flip up lid, in the front of the reservoir which gives you a smaller opening to pour the water, I really like the fact of having a much larger area for adding water. I am kind of liking the simplicity and operation of this Keurig Coffee Maker, it does not take as long to make a cup of coffee, and to be quite honest, makes a hotter cup of coffee, then some of the other more fancy models. The instructions are very easy to follow and I suggest you read the instructions before usage. This Coffee Maker can brew 12 oz., 10 oz., 8 oz., when using the k-pods. It can also brew 12 cups when using the Carafe brew feature, and that I love. Another great feature is when using the Carafe Brew Feature you can pull out the carafe and it pauses the brewing cycle for 20 sec to allow you to pour a cup of coffee without having to wait for it to fill up the carafe and finish the complete brewing cycle. Another great feature. This is the best of both worlds, for those of us who love coffee. One feature I really love is the Auto off feature, used for both your brewer and the heating plate, which turns your brewer off 1 min after the last single cup brew and turns the heating plate off after 2 hours after the last carafe brew. When using a k-pod you can also use a travel mug up to 7 in. tall. This Coffee Maker has the option of using the Keurig Water Filters, (SOLD SEPARATELY) You can also use the k-Cup universal Coffee Filter which allows you to put your favorite ground coffee into this k-cup filter and brew a single cup of coffee. The color is black which goes with any kitchen décor the size of this coffee maker is 12.74 in. H x 12.27 in. W x 13.44 in. D Bottom line is I absolutely for the price recommend this Keurig K-Duo Essentials Coffee Maker to anyone who is a coffee lover as I am. It makes a fast single cup of coffee that taste great!

This coffee maker works perfectly for one person or several. Right out of the box it was very simple to set up. It comes with a coffee pot if you’re needing several cups. Having a choice between how much coffee to make is going to save us lots of money on wasted pots of coffee. You can put your coffee mug under the pod side and you can remove the bottom tray on this side to accommodate your taller travel mugs. The drip coffee side has a warming plate to keep your coffee a nice temperature. Both sides have an 8, 10 or 12 selection. It has a larger water reservoir than the pod only versions for less filling. For the pods this is for oz. and for the drip coffee side it is for cups desired. Simply fill up the large water reservoir, add your coffee and select cups or pods then the size. It starts working quickly to make a delicious cup of coffee.
