The Keurig K-Slim is built for tight spaces: a five-inch footprint that squeezes into dorm rooms, offices and cramped counters where other brewers simply do not fit.
It is the lowest-profile K-Cup machine Keurig makes, minus the smart features — but with the full pod lineup and a 46oz tank.

Our verdict
The K-Slim is the right K-Cup brewer for exactly one scenario — very little space — and it nails it.
Frequently asked questions
Does the K-Slim brew a strong cup?
No strong-brew toggle, but you control cup size (8oz gives a denser drink) and not all pods behave the same. For a real packed cup, step up to the K-Elite.
