Good Points

The machine is fast.
It is also compact and doesn't take up much room.


Bad Points

The pods are over-priced and are of questionable quality.
Coffee apparently tastes like dishwater. Who knew?


General Comments

I love fresh coffee, enjoy it as an occasional treat and was thrilled when I received a Tassimo as a gift. Excitement quickly turned to disappointment. The creamer was appalling so I tried again with hot milk and a fresh coffee pod. The result was insipid so I added a second pod. In the end I added some instant coffee which completely defeated the object of the exercise.

In short it's an expensive way to end up with an inferior cup of coffee.

If you like decent, full flavoured coffee then invest in a real espresso machine and give the Tassimo a very wide berth. The machine itself is great: fast, efficient etc. Unfortunately, the dedicated pods are over-priced and produce inferior quality coffee. I won't be wasting any more money buying them.
