At just 5″ wide, Keurig K-Slim fits neatly on your counter space but it comes with a refillable water tank so you don’t have to add water for each cup.
If you like K-Mini because it’s nice and slim, but you don’t want to manually add water for each cup, now there’s Keurig K-Slim. The same space-saving design and basic three cup options, but it also comes with a 46 ounce removable water reservoir.
DESIGN
Just like it’s predecessors K-Mini and K-Mini Plus, the $109.99 Keurig K-Slim is only 5 inches wide so it takes up half the counter space compared to regular Keurig models. But, it’s pretty long since the water tank is sitting in the back.
The k cup holder and the buttons are placed on top for easy access, and you can easily fit a travel mug when you take out the drip tray.
Just like other Keurig machines, this one is mostly plastic. This model does seem quieter than some other models which is great, but Keurig is still not my favorite brand when it comes to quality since they’re definitely not built to last.

Keurig K-Slim is 4.76″ wide and 15.2″ deep and it’s available in black color. It retails for $109.99, but you can now get one on Amazon for $79.00.
usability
Like any other Keurig machine, this one is simple to use. You open the handle, insert any regular k-cup, and close. You can choose from three cup sizes: 8, 10, and 12 ounces. Select the brew size and press the blinking BREW button.
This model doesn’t come with an iced coffee option, but you really don’t need it since you can make iced coffee with any k-cup coffee maker using this recipe.
K-Slim doesn’t have auto ON option (Keurig K-Elite is the only model with an auto ON option), but it does have auto OFF and it will turn off the machine 5 minutes after the last brew to help save energy.
K-Slim has a 46 ounce removable water reservoir so you can brew about 4 cups before it needs to be refilled.
compatible pods
Keurig K-Slim works with all regular k-cups, branded and non-branded. The machine also works with universal reusable k-cup filter if you want to use your own coffee or reduce waste.

MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT
Keurig recommends cleaning the exit needles monthly and descaling your machine every 3 months.
K-Slim water filter: The Keurig K-Slim is compatible with the side reservoir water filter. For the best coffee taste, I personally recommend refilling the water tank every morning with fresh water.
