Keurig K425 vs K475 — how do you tell these nearly identical brewers apart?
Don’t worry, you aren’t the first person to ask this question.
Keurig has been confusing would-be buyers for years as they’ll give two almost identical brewers different model numbers that make one seem better than the other.
In most cases it’s simply a matter of Keurig modifying some unnamed internal component or changing the accessories the brewer comes with in order to get you to spring for the newer model.
Is that the case here?
We explain below in The Coffee Maven’s Keurig K425 vs K475 Showdown.

Keurig K425 vs K475: The Differences
Not a lot of differences in that table, huh? Let’s sum them up:
- K475 comes with the water filter handle and removable charcoal filters
Yeah, it’s a short list.
That Keurig 2.0 water filter starter kit is valued at $12-$15, so check the prices in the table above (they update in real time) to see if you’re getting a good deal on the K475 with that $12-$15 accessory included.
Both the K425 and K475 are K-Carafe compatible, but the carafe is sold separately. If you want to buy a K400 series brewer that comes with the carafe, go with the K450.

- K400
- K500
The differences between the K425, K475 and even the K450 are detailed above, but spec-wise they’re all representative of the K400 series.
This is how the K200-K500 series all compare:
