Daily morning coffee, about $1 per cup. Love the ability to make expresso, cappucino, mocha, latte etc without getting out extra machines, or going to the local Starbucks. Consistently great coffee! Looks great on the counter.Pods are available from Starbucks.com,or in Macy's,Bed Bath and Beyond stores... or your local Starbucks. :)

I got this machine as a gift. I can't find anything good about it. Water or milky water leaks into tray so you have to clean it every day. The pods slip right through so you have to dig them out and do it again or use another one - expensive waste of pods. The coffee has a horrible taste and not hot enough to be called coffee. The variety is shameful. I even had a missing part, but didn't make much difference. Going back to the Tassimo.
How long have you owned it:
A month or less

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Comment:
Makes excellent single espresso, although be sure to use the dark pods, and excellent latte (plus an easy vanilla latte if you get the syrup).<br /><br />Both equally as good as you'll get fresh at a Starbucks location.<br /><br />Makes a decent sized cup of regular coffee which is just a bit over 7 ounces, (but not a giant cup for those who are dedicated to large drinks). I find the Cafe Verona makes the best regular coffee, and don't like the other blends quite so much.
How long have you owned it:
One-to-three months
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
