The Keurig K-Elite – A Worthy Successor to a Coffee Pioneer
Top reviews from the United States
There was a problem filtering reviews. Please reload the page.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2024Color: Brushed SlateVerified PurchaseIn 2005, I brought home my very first Keurig, the B100, and let me tell you—it was a game-changer. Back then, in a world dominated by clunky coffee pots and mediocre instant granules, Keurig promised "Your coffee, your way, in under a minute." And wow, did it deliver. That little machine revolutionized mornings for me and countless others.
But all good things eventually come to an end. It’s time to say goodbye to my faithful B100. She holds a special place in coffee history—and in my heart—but the Keurig K-Elite is here to take her place. And honestly, I think I’m falling in love all over again.
Modern Elegance Meets Unparalleled Versatility
The K-Elite is a sleek, polished beauty that blends seamlessly into my dream coffee bar. Its brushed metal finish screams sophistication, while the intuitive interface makes it easy to use. This machine isn’t just an upgrade; it’s a coffee powerhouse.
Unlike my original B100, which brewed a solid cup of coffee, the K-Elite is all about options. Want bold coffee? You got it. Prefer iced coffee? Done. Craving a steaming hot brew? Adjust the temperature. It’s like having a personal barista who actually listens.
Why I’m Smitten
Speed & Efficiency: Just like the original Keurig, the K-Elite gets the job done fast. In under a minute, my cup is ready—perfect for chaotic mornings.
Customizable Brews: The strength control and temperature settings make it easy to craft your perfect cup.
Iced Coffee Button: Yes, you read that right. It brews over ice without diluting the flavor, and now I can pretend I’m fancy even on hot days.
Quiet Brew Technology: No more startling the household with that loud “ka-chunk” sound! This machine hums smoothly.
A Nostalgic Nod to My First Keurig
Let me be clear: my first Keurig will always be the machine that started it all. It was the pioneer of pod coffee, delivering single-serve simplicity in a time when such a thing felt like magic. It gave me years of reliable service and helped transform the way I enjoy coffee.
But, like any proud parent, I know it’s time to let her rest. The K-Elite carries on that legacy with style and substance, and I can’t help but think my trusty B100 would approve.
Final Thoughts
The Keurig K-Elite is more than just a coffee maker—it’s the next chapter in my coffee story. While I’ll always hold a special place in my heart for my original Keurig, the K-Elite has already proven itself as a worthy successor. It’s a modern marvel, a joy to use, and a central piece of my dream coffee bar.
Here’s to new memories, new mornings, and coffee that feels just right. Cheers to the K-Elite—and to the B100 for starting it all. ☕✨

- Reviewed in the United States on November 11, 2023Color: Brushed SlateVerified PurchaseThis is the 2nd Keurig machine that I have owned, the previous being a K145 OfficePro that I had for almost 10 years. I bought the new machine because the K145s cup size selector switch started to malfunction, probably from the contacts getting worn out from use. Being an engineer, I know that this only happened because of inferior design and/or parts quality. Neverthless, I was able to grab this unit on sale for labor day. I'm not sure if I would have paid full price for it, but it seems to be worth what I paid. I have made several observations after using this machine for over a month, hopefully to help the rest of you make an informed buying decision.
Pros:
- Makes better coffee than my K145. I would imagine this is due to Keurig changing the time and/or water delivery speed of the brewing process. Using good-quality K-Cups, it makes coffee on par with using a good-quality drip machine (like my Ninja). The coffee is notiably richer and more full-bodied compared with the K145 using the same K-Cups. This was a surprize to me, as I expected just a more expensive version of the old machine. Being that I love good coffee, this alone would have justified the purchased in my book.
- The pump makes half of the noise that the K145 did. This is also a plus because I get up early for work and don't want to disturb the rest of the family. The brew time is about the same.
- The machine now allows 2 extra cup size selections -- 14oz and 4oz, 1 larger and 1 smaller (by 2 oz) than on the K145.
- The machine will dispense hot water to make tea or hot chocolate. I can't comment on this feature yet, as I have yet to use it.
- The water tank is 20%-30% larger than on the K154, leading to more time between refills.
- This machine is compatible with non-Keurig K-Cups, as there is no barcode reader in the machine. Don't get me started.
Cons:
- The water tank was a product of the 'function follows form' perspective of some marketing idiot. The tank doesn't have any convenient surfaces to grip it in one hand, and due to it's compound curves is difficult to reinsert into the machine correctly. It's a 2-handed operation, due to their wanting to hide the water tank and make it look like the other half of the machine from an industrial design perspective. Mildly annoying.
- The water tank doesn't have a window on the front to check the water level. Another brilliant design choice. Now I have to peek around the side to determine how much water is left.
- The menu system of the digital pad is mildly confusing, and takes a little getting used to. It's not terrible, but it could be more user friendly. Playing with the settings using trial and error is more useful than trying to read the manual, which was probably written by the same person who designed the water tank.
All-in-all, the better quality of the coffee, the larger water tank, and the quieter operation justifies the upgrade. Reccommended, with a few reservations.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2025Color: Brushed SlateVerified PurchaseI love my keurig!Makes great coffee and in fast time! This is the 3rd one I've owned. I like the pods it takes because there's no mess.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2024Color: Brushed SilverVerified PurchaseI got this to replace my old Keurig that died after 15 years! I really like the features on here: 1) big water reservoir, with a replaceable filter. 2) lots more cup size choices. I don't do iced coffee but I like that there is a button for that (not sure what it does different? you're still brewing hot coffee, just into a cup full of ice. Maybe it adjusts for less room in the cup due to the ice?). I also didn't know, but like, that it has a removable filter that mounts in the water tank. You get one filter with the unit which it says lasts 2 months. You can get them online here for a reasonable price. they look like little woven pods, and they contain charcoal. But I like the idea of filtering the water BEFORE it gets inside the coffee maker--hopefully that makes it last longer without accumulating crud on it's insides.
The one feature I didn't fully understand was hot water on demand. Just press the button and get plain hot water right away. Great for tea, etc. Well, I tried it and it does not come out through a separate tube, so if you've left a K-cup in the unit, you will get watered down coffee. But now that I've adjusted for that, I like it--in addition to making tea, it's great for fixing a bowl of instant oatmeal quickly, and it makes it hot but not too hot to eat.
Overall, very nice. Hope it lasts a long time like my last one.
