Keurig
I just bought a Keurig with K cups, how do you store it in the rv and keep it from moving on the countertop.

I put mine away after each use....like you I could not properly decide on an inexpensive means of stabilizing it for travel but I have a few thoughts.
You can make a wood or plastic rectangle that surrounds the Keurig base and use double stick tape to hold it in place on the counter space. I decided not for this idea...it would hamper my need for open counter space in the limited galley.

We keep ours on the counter.
When traveling, we put it in the sink. Works for us.
Love the coffee.

We have a couple three plastic tubs that fit under the legs of the dining table chairs. This location keeps them from sliding around. Such items go into these tubs with a couple dish towels for padding. Upon arrival easy to set back out on the counters.

My Kurig has such a sticky base that it never slides around on the counter.

A 1 inch square of double sided foam tape under each of the 3 contact points of the Keurig. The Keurig was the first upgrade we did to our new to us HR a month ago!

We keep it on the counter, filled up, ready to go and have never had a problem with movement. Same for the K-cups, we leave them on the counter in a "turning thing a ma bob", works great and has never fallen over. The good thing: drinking fresh coffee going down the road; the bad thing: having to stop so often because of drinking fresh coffee going down the road

I have a Mini-10 Keruig,, I just make sure it is as far back on the counter as possible, it does not seem to move much. If I really want it secure I can set it in the sink or put some of that anti-skid stuff under it.
I also have a Mr. Coffee.. I put the glass caraf in the sink.
NOTE: on KERUG.. Green Mountain coffee has proudly announced they are locking their products so that only genuine Green Mountain K-Cups or Licensed K-Cups can be used,,, This should prevent the use of the "My K-Cup" refillable K-Cups. it will prevent companies from making K=Cups without paying the licensing fee..
And the term that is used for this practice, at least in the cell phone world, is Jailing.. Green Mountain is proud they are doing this.

Same here. The down-side of the mini Keurig is that you have to put water in each time, so the water is not pre-heated. But this thing does not take much counter space, and it is very light weight with sticky rubber feet. We just move it to the back corner of the countertop. It never moves at all while underway.
Here is what we got to store the coffee right above the coffee maker. The K-cup holder folds up flat underneath the cabinet, and you just pull it down to select your coffee. We found it here on Amazon.
