Best Coffee Maker for Your RV: Don’t be stuck with Awful Tasting Joe

Having a single-serve coffee machine is smart if there aren’t many people who will drink coffee regularly. It saves time, space, and you won’t waste coffee. This Black+Decker model offers you all of this in a high-quality, compact automatic drip machine.

The machine measures 7.4 x 5.9 x 12.1 inches, so it doesn’t take up very much counter space. It has a cord storage compartment and a reusable filter, so you don’t have to waste space storing filters. It’s lightweight and comes with a handy, 16-ounce thermal travel mug instead of a coffee pot, so that’s one less thing you have to worry about cleaning. The machine only requires 650 starting watts.

We love the fact that you can use coffee grounds or pods. The flexibility is excellent and allows you to have a modern product at an affordable price.

K-pods have taken the coffee world by storm, so being able to brew your favorite flavor in your RV can be very special. This Keurig model is lightweight and compact. It’s excellent for RVs because you get everything you need in one small package–storage, durability, simplicity, quality, and, most of all, a great-tasting cup of coffee.

The machine has a very convenient storage tray that can hold up to nine pods. When the machine isn’t in use, the tray slides right into the space where the coffee cup would sit. This means you don’t need to use precious counter space for storage. The machine is compact, measuring 11.3 x 4.5 x 12.1 inches and needs 1,475 starting watts. After the heating cycle is finished, the running watts are from 10 to 15 watts.

This product gives you a few options that are nice to have. It can accommodate up to a seven-inch tall coffee mug/cup. You can choose to brew between six and twelve ounces of coffee, and the coffee maker has a button to make it a “strong” brew in case you need some extra kick.

If you don’t have access to electricity in your RV, or you prefer an appliance that doesn’t use power, then this camping coffee machine is a great choice. The Coleman Camping coffee maker snugly fits on most two- or three-burner stoves, and the steel base is perfect for making sure it’s not damaged. It brews up to 10 cups of coffee efficiently. It does take a while for the coffee to brew, but that is to be expected.

We love the fact that it’s a simple, easy-to-use coffee maker. It has a swing-out basket for the filter, which can be removed making it easy to clean. The water reservoir is a nice, wide neck so you can easily add water. It’s a true, no-fuss product that measures 8.5 x 11 x 14 inches. Not the most compact design, but it is a small size, so it won’t take up too much space.

A percolator pot is a great way to get the richest, fullest flavor from great coffee. It’s also great because it doesn’t need electricity to work, making it perfect for RVs and camping. It’s stainless steel so it’s very durable and it’s been polished to a brilliant, mirror-finish, so it looks fancy and lasts a long time.

The built-in filter is permanent, so you don’t have to worry about continually buying filters, and the interior is designed so that it doesn’t absorb odors. The lid seals tight, and your coffee is ready quickly. The percolator is lightweight and small, so it’s not going to take up a lot of space. It’s a good percolator that’s going to do precisely what you need it to – brew great coffee.

This is a very shiny percolator! Like the Farberware, this percolator is stainless steel and shined to perfection. It is a robust and durable percolator that resists warping and produces vibrant tasting coffee. Like the Farberware, it has a clear glass handle that allows you to see when the coffee is percolating, but the handle is a lot stronger, so it won’t break just because the lid gets tight.

The percolator is around the size of a coffee pot. It measures 8 x 4.8 x 7.5 inches, so it’s not awkward to use. We like the rosewood panels on the handle. This protects you from burns because you won’t have to touch a hot handle. It also looks nice-almost rustic.

It comes with filters, although they aren’t necessary, and the percolator also has a one-year warranty in case of defects. It’s a little pricey, but it’s a fantastic product that’s worth every dollar.

We have another Keurig on the list, and it’s also a drip coffee machine. The difference between this one and the first one is that you have more options and features with this model. One important option is that you can choose to brew six, eight, or ten ounces of coffee. It also brews the coffee in less than two minutes, so you don’t have to wait forever for your morning joe.

We wish this Keurig had the pod storage compartment like the first one, but this is one feature we can live without since everything else about this machine is superb. Like all Keurig products, it is manufactured well with high-quality material. This gives this model a long life span, but just in case something goes wrong, it comes with a one-year limited warranty.

The K15 is a very portable, compact product. It measures 10.8 x 6.9 x 10.7 inches and can accommodate a travel mug or coffee mug up to 5.5 inches tall. This RV coffee maker requires at least 1,475 starting watts. It has a cord storage compartment, and it’s an all-in-one system, so you don’t need any extra counter space for it. This is one of the best coffee makers you can get.

Chulux’s offering is a tiny, automatic-drip unit. It may be small, measuring 4.3 x 7.5 x 9.8 inches, but the brewing process makes a cup of java with big, rich flavor. It only requires 800 starting watts. It works well, not only because of its size but because of the simplicity of operation and it’s versatility. It allows you to either use coffee grounds with its reusable filter or by using it with pods.

While it’s not as fancy as a Keurig, it does provide you with the exact features you need. First, it’s 800 watts, so this is good for RV generators and inverters. It automatically shuts off after the brew, which saves power. It also comes with a one-year warranty in case of defects. While this product isn’t the highest in quality on the list, it’s still an excellent machine that won’t break the bank.

If saving space is your priority, then and under-the-cabinet model is a wise choice. This particular Black+Decker model is all about convenience. It has an insulated 8-cup carafe, a programming feature for automatic brews, and a removable water reservoir for easy cleaning and filling. It has a cord storage hook and automatically shuts off to save energy.

Even though the coffeemaker saves counter space, it isn’t that compact. It measures 17 x 12 x 13 inches and weighs 11 pounds. This is large and heavy for a personal machine. At least you only have to handle it once during installation. However, once installed, this product will brew excellent pots of coffee in a fair amount of time. Amazingly, it only requires 900 starting watts, which is surprising for this size of machine.

This is the only product on the list that works by propane gas. This is perfect for people who may not have spare power or sufficient outlets in their RV. Propane gas provides even steady heating, so even in cold conditions, you can still get a hot pot of joe.

The product measures 13.3 x 17.1 x 8.9 inches. It’s slightly bigger than most compact models and a little heavier than most compact ones. However, it’s still at a size and weight that’s manageable. The reason we included it on the list is because of its quality and the fact that having a propane-powered coffee maker is smart in an RV.

The model is made of a very durable steel combined with hard plastic. It comes with a one-year warranty like Olive Coleman, so you don’t have to worry about defects.
