Grrr8!

 

Bought one of these by a 'BIG NAME' kitchen appliance maker a couple of months ago for well over $100 and it proved to be way too large and bulky and difficult to use so the wife sent it back.This little Hamilton Beach is so small, simple to use and...

None, zero, zilch!!!

No Flavor. It does not make a cup of coffee that has any taste

Boo!

 

Disappointed I just went to senseos website and got the pressurized system, the deluxe was out of stock. The regular senseo machine, I think, makes some of the best coffee in the world. You can get oversized pods now in many blends that make a...

Its cheap, it uses pods (which I find superior), its nifty handy and all of that...Oh, if you manage to find the tea pods, this machine isnt so bad for tea. The pressurized system is not necessary for a decent tea in a tea-pod. Just thought id mention...

But the coffee is terrible. Instead of the machine using pressure to force hot water through the coffee pod, the water just kinda soaks through the pod, making a weak lame cup of coffee. I bought this on sale thinking I could get a quick fix until I...

please do not buy

 

don't waste your money...I know it is cheap...that's why i bought it too. but it is like just throwing your money in the trash.

very small. cheap.

Terrible coffee. Here is how it ranks...best- keurig; second - good quality drip coffee; third - old coffee from a place you get your oil changed; last - this swill.

Weak Coffee

 

Makes one cup at a time. Doesn't take up alot of counter space

Coffee is very weak. I gave this machine away after a few months. I have the Keurig and Tassimo and this machine doesn't come close. I would not recommend it

Not bad.. not great

 

Cheaply made, but what would you expect from the price. It is solid and doesn't feel super cheap. It is not ugly compared to other cheap products at the same price point.

As cheap as it gets. Works fine with the right pods, and can easily be used if you make your own pods since it has a dual tray adapter. It is a small device so it easily fits on my counter(see cons). It is not real loud, but it is not quiet either.

Small and that means a bit unstable when you turn it on. Hold the top as you mash the on button or you can spill water out of the tank in back. Another of the most important flaws is that it does not compress the pods in any way like some of the other...
