Currently the best I have is: python (ds1.reset_index('x') .rename({'x': 'yx', 'x_': 'x'}) .assign_coords(y=lambda ds: (('yx',), [ds.y.item()] * 3)) .set_index(yx=['y', 'x'])) <xarray.Dataset> Dimensions: (yx: 3) Coordinates: * yx (yx) MultiIndex - y (yx) object 'a' 'a' 'a' - x (yx) int64 1 2 3 Data variables: foo (yx) int64 1 2 3 which is rather un-intuitive.

It occurs to me that maybe this is just a good use case for expand_dims (#1326), which could make this as simple as ds1.expand_dims('y').stack(yx=['y', 'x']))
