If you love the convenience of pod coffee but hate being locked into it, we found the perfect Keurig for you — and doubly so at this insane clearance price. The K-Duo Essentials brews both hot and iced coffees, and although it brews K-cup pod coffee, it has one thing other Keurig machines lack: a carafe. That means you can still brew a whole pot of coffee on those mornings when a single serving just won’t cut it.
As if the machine isn’t exciting enough, today we found it at a deep, deep discount at Walmart: $66.51. Though Walmart lists the regular K-Duo’s price at $99, Amazon lists the same machine on sale for $139.99. That’s nearly 52% more expensive than Walmart’s current clearance. In other words, if you buy the K-Duo at Walmart, you’re taking 52% off what you’d pay at Amazon! Now that’s a deal.
The Keurig K-Duo makes 6-, 8-, 10- and 12-ounce single servings of pod coffee or a 12-cup glass carafe of any ground coffee you have on hand via its brew basket. It has a hefty 72-ounce water reservoir, so you won’t have to worry about refilling it after every use. It also features a strong function for bolder brewed coffee, an extra hot option and an ice option for brewing over ice. Because this Keurig has both a carafe and single-serve pod brewer in one machine, it will save you plenty of precious kitchen real estate.
Reviewers love it, saying it’s much faster and easier to use than a basic Keurig machine.
“The original Keurig had a power button,” explains one review. “After you pushed the power button, you had to wait for the machine to warm up before you could brew your cup. This one has no power button. You just push the cup button, and it’s ready to go. Then you push brew button, and the water instantly comes out hot. Love it!”
Take advantage of this massive clearance sale before the K-Duo is all gone, and read on for some promising reviews from happy Walmart coffee drinkers. Keep scrolling to see some other cool accessories to optimize your Keurig experience, as well.
Read on for more promising reviews of the Keurig K-Duo coffee maker:
“I purchased this as a splurge item. I was tired of multiple coffee pots taking up cabinet space and wanted too set up a coffee bar in a small spot in my kitchen. After some research I decided on this one. Walmart was by far the best price, $60 less than Amazon so I felt like I got a great deal.” — MJ
“My wife and I are always on the go with short notice but enjoy a full pot of coffee on our off days. We’ve been researching for a dual coffee maker like this for a little while now and found the one we liked available and better priced with Walmart than anywhere else.” — Walmart Customer
“Works right out of the box just plug it in. As soon as you put in coffee it serves it right away and serves it hot! Super fast machine I don’t know how it does it but it does it well. Love that it’s duo because sometime I run out of pods or they are too expensive so I use ground coffee. Both sides work great I’m glad I have both options” — ClarissaReviews
“A fantastic addition to the keurig line. I’m used to the earlier models that didn’t have these options. It runs extremely smoothly and appreciate the big water reservoir that isn’t hard to latch on and off. I’ve been enjoying the cold feature. Yum! But also nice to have some drip coffee too. Definitely a good purchase for a coffee lover.” — Ashley
“We have been using our new 2-in-1 Keurig daily for about a month. We love having the option of a pot of coffee or a single cup. Love the simplicity of one coffeemaker on the counter with multiple pour options. The only downside is you can’t make a single cup while a full pot is brewing. Not a big issue, we just wait. Would recommend this Keurig.” — Karen
You can also upgrade your coffee game with one of these essentials:
The most underrated step of brewing great coffee is making sure your machine is clean. Get rid of the oily bean gunk stuck in the spout of your favorite coffee maker and grab a box of these descaling tablets. Just drop a tablet into your coffee maker’s water reservoir, brew like normal and dump the cleaning liquid. Then, rinse your coffee maker with another water cycle and you’re good to go! This is a good way to maintain your coffee maker’s lifespan and get rid of limescale and oils caused by hard water. It even works with Keurig machines!
If you love foamy milk in your hot coffee (or latte), this portable frother can whip some up in mere seconds. It has a whisk that spins at the bottom of your hot (or cold) milk, creating bubbles for a nice layer of foam to dollop atop your cup. It takes two AA batteries and only requires the press of a button to operate.
What you can expect from the Bones Coffee Company is a never-ending selection of flavor profiles that range from fruity cereal to maple bacon. But for the less adventurous coffee drinkers among us, their line of single-origin beans hail from regions like Ethiopia, Sumatra and Costa Rica in classic roasts boasting bold delicious taste. The company sources all their beans from farms that have been certified by the Rainforest Alliance, an international organization dedicated to protect the environment and farming communities.
With 360-degree perforation, these stainless steel reusable coffee pods allow water to reach all of the coffee grounds giving you maximum extractions. The stainless steel helps keep all the natural oils and flavors intact on the beans and it’s dishwasher-friendly. These pods are compatible with a number of Keurig machines as well as Mr. Coffee makers. (Check the chart on the product page before purchasing to ensure this will work for your machine.) You can also save $3 on this two-pack by clipping the on-page coupon.
Again, the biggest issue with Keurig machines is the waste that they create with single-use plastics. Curb the need to toss your coffee pods into a landfill with this reusable K-cup pack instead. This three-pack is a universal pod that works with the K-Duo, K-Classic, K-Elite, K-Select and K-Cafe coffee brewers. Plus, it comes with a nifty scoop so you know exactly how much ground coffee to load into each cup. These cups are dishwasher-safe, too!
If you have a K-Duo, you have options: a pot of ground coffee or a single-serve pod. The problem is, the pot portion uses paper filters like a traditional coffee maker, thus causing more waste alongside those plastic pods. Never buy a filter (or single-use K-cup) again. Instead, opt for this reusable coffee filter pack. It comes with a mesh filter that fits the coffee carafe of a K-Duo or K-Duo Essentials machine perfectly, and when you’re done, just rinse it clean.
