Keurig K-Duo
This is my personal favorite, because it is the best of two worlds.What's not to love! You can make a pot of coffee, or a sigle cup using a K cup pod. Or, if you're like me in the morning, one of each. the price is fair at about $150 at Target, for basically two machines. However, you'll only pay about $99 at Walmart for pretty much the same thing.

Our former Top Pick - Tie - Keurig Classic, above

What makes this a winner, alongside the Keurig classic? Price, and features. It's footprint is full size, it's features are full sized, I just think it, arguably, gives the most bang for the buck.
Our NEW Fave in the Top 10 K Cup Brewers!
Right, so I wrote the article above a couple years ago. A lot has occurred in said time.
Just under 2000 reads of this article later the site went offline for about 6 months. I saved all my old articles, like this one, and have been moving them to the site 10 at a time. Let's face it, when you work a way full time job, you have to pace yourselves with your pastimes. Over the months that Delightful Coffee was offline, I purchased a new K-Cup brewer for the office at my day job. Basically it was a gift to the office. Why drink warmed over old coffee from a regular brewer when you can have near instant goodness! The word Instant is important here. My top pick in the Top 10 K Cup is:
Instant Solo Single Serve Coffee Maker
From the Makers of Instant Pot, this is a K-Cup Pod compatible brewer. It includes reusable coffee pod & bold setting, Brew 8 to 12oz., 40oz. Water Reservoir. The one I got was red. It was a Christmas gift, after all. I got it on Amazon.
What do I like about this k cup brewer?
This cost me only $79 at Amazon.
It's small, does not take up a lot of counter space.
The machine is relatively fast, more on that later.
Comes with a reusable k cup you can put your own coffee into.
It brews a full measure as advertised. See, my home Keurig, well, sometimes it shorts the cups for no darned reason.
What I don't like
The 40 oz reservoir is a bit small.
The "start to brew" time is a little slow.
