Keurig K-Duo Hot Iced Single Serve Carafe Coffee Maker MultiStream Technology 72oz Reservoir Ideal for Holiday Hosting Gift

This was a little intimidating for me coming from a simple coffee pot and also a simple Keurig to the combined station. Read the manual and then read it again to make sure you understand how it works as it works quickly and can pour all over your counter if you don't have a cup down. We learn this from experience, twice. Now that we know our way around the product, we are extremely happy with the ease of both sides. The coffee is good and strong and the hot plate does not seem to burn it. The Keurig side bruise three different sizes and is very quick to brew either a an ice or a strong cup of coffee. This is a good deal and we like the black in our kitchen. Read more

We've owned a lot of different Keurig's; some worked well for us and others weren't that great. But so far, this one is a winner. Granted, we've only had it for a couple days, but so far, we're really pleased. We had been looking for a coffee-maker that could do both K-cups and a carafe-full, and this one fit the bill. The carafe is large and sturdy, and the K-cup side has the 'multi-brew' system that allows more coffee flavor to come through. I like my coffee very strong, and was able to use the 6 oz. size with the 'Extra Strong' button for a really good cup of strong coffee. I also like that there's an 'Extra Hot' button as well, since I do like my coffee very hot. The other nice feature with this machine is the large water reservoir; I think it's 72 oz., which is one of the bigger ones available. It's easy to fill and to take on & off. It also couldn't be easier to use: For a K-cup, just plunk in the pod and push 'Brew'--that's it. It brewed quickly and without splashing all over like some of the others we've tried. My only negative feedback is that it didn't even come with even ONE little coffee filter for the basket over the carafe. And since I didn't have any, I had to buy some before I could even try it. Normally a drip machine will come with a few 'starter' filters. And secondly, although the water reservoir has a place for a water filter, you don't get one with the coffeemaker. I've gotten them with other coffeemakers, but this one just says it's 'ready' for a filter, but you have to of course buy the 'filter starter kit'. Since they were offering the machine at a much lower price though, I guess I should have expected that they'd skimp on the accessories. I can't speak for how well it will hold up long-term, but so far, I'm really happy with this coffeemaker. Read more

I recently replaced my Bunn coffee maker with this bc my husband didn’t think the Bunn made the water hot enough. I decided to go with this model bc my son likes to make a cup of coffee during the day if he needs it. This is perfect! It checks off all the boxes. Looks great, love the regular coffee maker with a 12 cup carafe. I like cold coffee and it has a feature for cold drinks. Plus a I can program it for the mornings. It’s super easy to set up and clean. Looks very durable and no leaks. I have also bought one for my son and daughter in law and they will love this! Read more

Purchased this for 2 reasons to replace my first gen Duo. The "strong" option for k-cups and the auto timer for the brew side. Setting the auto timer is intuitive, press the auto brew button just follow the blinking lights. You will have to do this daily, you cannot set a weekly schedule, but its quick and easy. I set it to run 8 mins before my alarm, so I wake up to 10 cups of coffee. I feel as though the brew side isn't as hot, but close enough not to be worried. The single serve side works great, the stronger brew works as I hoped, and I look forward to using the other options over time such as the ice brew option that lowers the temp slightly. Water tank seems to be about the same capacity as the gen 1. I like the placement of the buttons better than how they did it on gen 1. overall I am pleased with the gen 2 design and function, even the price!! its was a little cheaper than what we paid for the gen 1 model. Took a star away for 2 reasons, the temp on the carafe side, seems like its not as hot as the gen 1, and reading reviews i see people had some issues after a year causing me to get the 3 yr insurance.

I previously had a FlexBrew and really liked having the option to make just a cup on demand or brew an entire pot. Having served us well for almost nine years, I was looking to get another one when I saw that the Keurig K-Duo was on sale for the same price with a few more features...like the water tank and brew size selection. I really like the water tank and it is very easy to fill; no more spilled water. And I like the brew size when it comes to making hot water for tea...sometimes I just want a cup and something I want a pot. The one thing I don't like is discovering that my reusable k-cups don't work with the Keurig, that you need 'special' ones. My recommendation is that you order a set when you order the coffee maker.
