Where would we be without single-cup coffee machines? Gone are the days of brewing a whole carafe of coffee, only to have it sit out all day, waiting for someone to pour themselves a lukewarm cup. For all of their merits, single-serve machines, including offerings from major brands like Keurig and Nespresso, come with one major problem: figuring out how to tastefully store the pods. 

An overflowing basket of K-Cups, or worse, a mangled cardboard box, won't cut it. Not only do they make it difficult to find the flavor that you want, but they can also make your coffee bar or kitchen counter look messy. Luckily, you won't have to settle for a boring organizer when there are so many creative options available. We've rounded up a list of the best and most functional coffee pod holders that will elevate your kitchen, keep your pods organized, and act as a statement piece for your space.

Pod holders don't have to be showy or juvenile to be interesting — and this simple one from Byteaidrex is proof of that. It comes in two shapes: a black coffee cup or a square design. The black coated metal connects to a sturdy wooden base and requires no assembly once it arrives at your doorstep. The design is modern and conservative enough that it could be used in an office or add a refined touch to a modern farmhouse kitchen. Customers say it can accommodate upwards of 20 K-Cups or three sleeves of 2-ounce Nespresso pods. 

The one drawback to this design is that all of the coffee pod flavors are mixed into one, and it is a pain to have to pull all of the pods out to find the one you want. But if you like playing coffee roulette or only use one type of pod, it might be a product worth looking into.

If you have a tiny kitchen, you know that counter space is prime real estate — and probably not something that you want to waste. Besides investing in a quality kitchen cabinet organizer, you'll also want to add storage space to every wall and door possible. Enter the Matt Saga self-adhesive mounted coffee pod holder. 

The benefit of this self-adhesive tape is that, because you are placing it yourself, you can space it as wide or as narrow as you need to accommodate different-sized pods. Clean the surface you plan to adhere the strip to, grab a leveler, and get to work. Each pack comes with twelve 12.5-inch strips, so you won't have to worry about running out of them. Stick them to walls, counters, backsplashes, and even the undersides of your cabinets and relish the fact that your counters aren't cluttered with stray K-Cups and capsules. However, the drawback of this design (for K-Cups specifically) is that it's hard to tell which pod is which, considering the label needs to face against the flat surface in order to fit.

A coffee pod organizer is a break room essential. This pod holder from Mind Reader is simple yet effective, making it perfect for an office setting. It has four slots, allowing you to sort your K-Cups by variety. Its capacity is about 20 pods, standard for an organizer of its size. The feature that separates it from others on this list is that it comes with a small corkboard on top so that you can post announcements or important reminders, like removing spent K-Cups from the machine. 

Another benefit of this organizer is that it's easy to mount onto a wall or cabinet, and it doesn't eat up any counter space. You can use adhesive strips or magnets to position it on the wall — just note that magnets will not adhere to stainless steel refrigerators (and presumably other stainless steel surfaces as well). Visually, this pod dispenser isn't super whimsical or fun, but it does its job. It's an affordable must-have for any office, and the over 4,000 people who have purchased it on Amazon have mostly positive things to say about it.

How could you not love these cute coffee pod organizers from Made Easy Kit? The company offers several different designs, ranging from cats, owls, and snails to horses, octopuses, and bunnies. Most of the organizers can fit upwards of 25 pods and are made with heavy-duty metal. They look like they just walked straight out of a funky antique shop, making them a kitsch yet functional addition to any kitchen or coffee station. 

Like several of the other holders on this list, this product comes fully assembled; you just need to fill it with your K-Cups of choice and get ready to brew. Like some of the other basin-style organizers in this list, you may have to root around to find your favorite K-Cup flavor, but the cute design more than makes up for it. Overall, folks who have purchased it appreciate its functionality, funky design, and cuteness — reason enough to include it on this list.

One of the best ways to add visual appeal to your kitchen countertops is to play with shapes. Statement vases, vignettes, and, of course, this circular coffee pod holder from Charmount can give your space dimension and draw attention to your coffee station. What we love about this holder is that it's very simple and very functional, yet still has a unique design that sets it apart from boring pod holders. It comes in two finish options, dark brown (which almost looks charcoal-colored) and white, meaning it can fit into a variety of kitchen color schemes and designs. 

This holder has an 8-inch diameter and can hold a ton of pods — more than 30 K-Cups, 40 Nespresso Vertuo capsules, and 100 Nespresso Original pods. It's simple yet refined, and we appreciate that it's super easy to refill the pods when you're running low.

Cat's got your tongue — and apparently, your coffee pods, too. This small but mighty cat-shaped organizer is a must-buy for feline enthusiasts. Although it only holds 11 pods, its cute stainless steel design makes it a compelling addition to your kitchen. Unlike some of the other coffee pod holders on this list, you can easily see the labels for each of your K-Cup pods, which will help you scope out your options for your morning brew. 

Although this holder comes in two pieces, it couldn't be easier to assemble. It's important to note that it stands a little under 14.5 inches tall, so it may not be ideal if you have low cabinet clearance. Still, cat lovers will probably think it's purr-fect.

If you are looking to add a fun statement piece to your kitchen, but don't want to stray too far from your modern farmhouse aesthetic, this coffee house pod holder is a worthy addition to your cart. This house-shaped metal stand can hold up to 30 K-Cup-sized pods, and even more Nespresso capsules. The metal is durable and is less likely to break than wood or plastic, and it has the perfect amount of shiny finish to catch your eye as you're walking by. 

While it won't organize all your pods by variety, it's easy enough to shuffle through your options, thanks to the generous opening on the roof of the design. It's not bulky, and folks who have purchased it appreciate both its design and its sturdiness. Standing at just under 10 inches tall, it's easy to fit underneath most cabinets and will keep your coffee station neat and tidy.

There are very few coffee pod holders on this list that come in different sizes, which makes this selection from the Deco Brothers Store stand out. Its smallest size can fit 24 large or 48 small capsules, while its larger models can fit 28 and 56, and 30 and 60, respectively. You also have several different finishes to choose from, including black, rustic brown, maple, and our personal favorite: the tempered glass and white design. The drawer fits right under your Nespresso machine and is easy to slide out when you're ready to brew. As such, this design doesn't eat up counter space like some of the other pod holders on this list. 

Another plus: It comes with padded non-slip feet, so you won't have to worry about it sliding around or being knocked off the counter when you're cleaning up your coffee station. It looks more expensive than it is, and folks who have bought it are pleased with its quality.

We're partial to pod holders that can be integrated into underutilized spots in the kitchen, including the inside of cabinets. This wall-mounted coffee pod holder from Vomelon is versatile because you can place it on most wall surfaces, and it fits a variety of pod shapes and sizes. It can hold up to 24 K-Cups or Lavazza pods, 20 Nespresso Vertuo pods, and 32 Nespresso Original pods. You don't even need a drill to assemble it, making it a renter-friendly way to organize your coffee. You can even mount it on your fridge! 

Customers who have purchased this adjustable pod organizer really appreciate its design. Since it's made from black metal, it'll integrate seamlessly into most kitchen designs. One reviewer even tried using this organizer for their plant trimmings and found that it worked well, likely because it could be adjusted to fit the size of the cups. It's important to note that this set does not come with extra adhesive, which unfortunately makes moving it to a new spot challenging.

If you have an extensive barista setup, complete with coffee syrups, garnishes, and sweeteners, you'll want to try your darndest to keep everything organized and together. This multi-tiered rack organizer from Ogemxu comes with two lower drawers that can fit 72 K-Cup-sized pods. On top of those drawers is a simple yet effective tier for your dry goods, as well as a smaller tier on top of that for your syrups and bottles. The top tier has small guardrails in place to prevent you from accidentally knocking over the syrup bottles and jars. Depending on cabinet clearance, you could even place your coffee machine on the base and cups on the back — making it a great investment for office spaces. 

If you don't have an extensive coffee bar setup, you may not feel the need to purchase such a large organizer just to store your pods. However, if you want to keep your space neat, it's definitely worth a look.

Enclosed drawers come in handy in the kitchen, as they can conceal items that don't match the color scheme of your kitchen or that would otherwise look messy just sitting out on your countertop. If aesthetics are an important thing for you when selecting a coffee pod organizer, this offering from Evermagin may be right up your alley. It comes in two finishes, rustic wood and black, and two shapes: 35 K-Cups and 62 Nespresso Original pods. Sorry, Vertuo owners, but you're out of luck on this one. 

Another handy feature on this organizer is the double fixed hooks on the sides for storing up to eight coffee mugs. It also has non-slip feet and a durable build, so you won't have to worry about handles coming off or breaking. Many folks put their coffee machine on top of the organizer, and if you're lucky, you might even have enough room for your favorite coffee syrups, sugar, or dry creamer too. It's slightly pricier than some of the other offerings on this list, but its sophisticated design and utility make it a must-have for coffee lovers.

Made Easy Kit offers several different coffee organizers, including the aforementioned 3-D models and this slim, space-saving version. It comes in fewer shapes than the other countertop organizers on our list, but still includes classic options like a cute orange cat, red flower, and blue octopus. The number of coffee pods the organizer holds depends on the model; some can hold as few as 16 while others can have upwards of 35 K-Cups. It's a freestanding organizer that's taller than it is wide, making it an ideal investment if you're looking for something that can slide under your kitchen cabinets without taking up too much counter space near your coffee station. Since the pods are front-facing, they're easy to read and select — ideal for someone who likes to pick up a variety pack of K-Cups instead of sticking to a single flavor. 

All of Made Easy Kit's organizers are cute and fun, yet still refined enough to belong in a grown-up kitchen. They can add a pop of color to your space and help you organize all of your K-Cups — a win-win in our book.

Coffee organizers don't always have to look childish or kitschy; they can also be incredibly sophisticated and stylish additions to modern kitchens. This drawer organizer from Kikjok is made with real wood, which gives it a very refined and upscale look. If you look closely, you'll see the intricate detailing on the handles, making it a statement piece for any coffee nook. Depending on the size of your pods, you can expect to fit anywhere between 30 and 50 of them in the glass-front cabinet. It has two drawers, allowing you to store coffee in one and tea and hot chocolate pods in the other. 

This organizer is 15.6 inches wide and 11.4 inches deep, meaning it does take up a considerable amount of counter space. However, the flat top of the drawer provides a perfect spot for your coffee machine, syrups, mugs, and more. If you don't want to damage the wood, consider placing a bar mat on top of it to catch spills or drips.

For some folks, having 35 coffee pods on display simply isn't necessary. But if you work in an office where the coffee machine is the only thing more popular than the printer, you'll want to make sure that you have more than enough pods to go around. This large Jackcube K-Cup holder features a bamboo base and metal frame, and comes with pre-drilled holes and mounting hardware to hang it up. It fits 35 pods at a time and is ideal if you're stocking several varieties at once.

This holder is handy and simply designed, meaning it can fit in both homes and office spaces. While it's only available in one color, you can easily spray paint the metal to help it match your color scheme or other decor. Hang it above your Keurig or single-serve coffee maker to streamline your morning routine.

The front-facing design makes selecting your coffee pod easy, and its upright shape will eliminate the need for a cluttered bowl of pods on your countertop.

We combed through Amazon's extensive selection of coffee pod organizers to assemble this list. When most people think of a K-Cup organizer, they picture the basic spinning wire ones that not only take up a ton of space but also tend to look a bit drab. We wanted to highlight organizers that offer unique features, like a space-saving shape, fun display, or thoughtful design elements, like a built-in corkboard. These organizers can be used in a variety of settings, ranging from homes to offices and everything in between, and can fit with a range of kitchen styles, from farmhouse to modern. 

Not only do all of the organizers that made this list offer something other than just a functional display for your coffee pods, but they have also been highly rated by reviewers for their durability, functionality, and overall utility in the kitchen.
