“I'm assuming 5 is the best, if not than forget the...”

I'm assuming 5 is the best, if not than forget the ratings as the UNO UNO ranks THE BEST in all above categories. I've owned my UNO UNO since they first arrived in Australia, can't remember when that was. The first water tank developed a leak, i rang the supplier and they sent me a new one free of charge. Mine is finally starting to give up the ghost after all these years, I'm replacing it with a new one. My daughter is moving out of home and wants one as they are so convenient. I don't worry about...

I bought this s/hand to see what it's like and i'm the only one that drinks a lot of coffee and found the old method messy, very messy so at the price this was worth a try. So far it's more than proved its worth, didn't even try to asource the Uno pods just went out and bought the Lidl ones, great coffee, it can also be used with teabags for a quick cup of tea, I'll be chucking all the old filters and jugs, well, maybe not right away, give it some more use first, as some of the reviews hint at the...

I, too, have discovered Kompleat. But they are very expensive and no discount available on multi buys. As they are the only supplier they should do the customers a favour.But I suppose being the only supplier they can charge whatever they want

I am using Douwe Egberts Senseo pods at the moment.They are slightly too big but i give them a shake so the coffee is loose then squash them into the machine.Its not ideal but works fairly well.

“The Russell Hobbs Uno Coffee Maker is my first coffee...”

The Russell Hobbs Uno Coffee Maker is my first coffee machine, bought after months of wondering which one to get, and if I really wanted one anyway...
The Uno is easy to set up, and produces a very hot cup of coffee very quickly (quicker than instant coffee made using a kettle). All you do is insert a coffee pod, put some cold water in the container that fits to the back of the Uno, switch on, and wait a little while, then when the Uno is ready (seconds), choose your cup size by pressing a...

Pods are being more widely stocked, Sainsburys now have them. Asda and Tesco are expecting them before Xmas.
<br>
<br>I'ts worth shopping around. I bought my Uno Uno fom Comet at £29.99 having walked past Argos/Boots simply because they were around £60-£70.

Russell Hobbs Uno Coffee Maker - Complete waste of money as I cannot get the pods anywhere, and I refuse to buy an adaptor as I paid out for the machine so why should I have to pay out more, If you're going to market a machine which, note, is still on sal,e why would you stop stocking the coffee pods for it???? Totally fed up and I'm going to complain to Russell Hobbs becuase it just isn't on!!...

Oh brilliant thanks very much for letting me know, I did also find a website www.unounopods.com that does them but it's a lot less hassle getting them from Sainsbury's I tell you and you don't have to pay postage!
<br>
<br>Thank you so much!!

Tim Carswell's response to flynny4378's Review

Written on: 24/10/2004

Its a good idea to call your Sainsburys before making the trip though - I have 3 stores near me and only one of them stocks the Uno Uno pods at the moment. They plan to have them in all stores by Xmas or so the Customer Services lady says.
<br>
<br>I have found that, if you buy the Kenco pods and squash them into the pod holder, just making sure no part of the pod is above the rim, it works just fine with no leaks.

Have had major problems getting replacement pods for this machine.
<br>Customer service Russell Hobbs tell me John Lewis does all 4 types of coffee pod and that Miller Brothers, Sainsbury and Woolworths stock 3 types. I live in Newcastle, which has these stores and 2/2 Sainsburys, 1/1 Woolworths, 2/2 Tesco, 2/2 Asda do not stock these.
<br>I have been told, however, that Kenco pods are identical. I have also read that you can use round teabags with this machine.
<br>I have yet to try Miller Brothers, but have mailed John Lewis, as I have spent too much time and petrol looking for these pods.
<br>It is such a shame, as the coffee is excellent !!
<br>This is the best I have tasted-with the free samples - EVER !!
<br>There is easypod and coffeepod websites, and of course www.unounopod.com, which at present has free p+p.
<br>Google have quite a few coffeepod companies listed. It is just a matter of searching around to suit your taste and pocket, as the price of the pods varies considerably.
<br>I notice previous comments about Tesco getting these pods in at Xmas. We have a local superstore and they don't have them.
<br>ENJOY.

Buy the pods online, they are much cheper than in store - and you can get more varieties.
<br>
<br>Try www.unounopods.com and www.easypods.co.uk

It is an excellent machine, making excellent coffee. I buy my pods online http://www.unounopods.com/- 4 boxes at a time to make sure I get the free P&P, package arrives in 2/3 days - actually works out cheaper than the shops.
<br>
<br>Pod availability varies depending on where you live. We have an in town Sainsburys and an out of town SuperStore, and another SuperStore only 11 miles away. The in town store stocks them, the other two don't. Our Tesco SuperStore doesn't stock them either, neither does Tesco Online - but my little Tesco Express does, so does the Tesco in Exeter. My local Woolworths did stock them, now they don't. Asda ran an offer for a month and haven't stocked them since.
<br>
<br>It's best to buy online and avoid the stress

Also try Kenco Crema Range coffee pods, the right size and also give a really nice creamy layer on the top of the coffee.

“Russell Hobbs - Rich Whysall's comment that you can...”

Russell Hobbs - Rich Whysall's comment that you can get them from unipod.com is unhelpful, since there is no such website. You can by 44mm pods from other coffee websites, but this means fitting an adaptor to the machine. Since 44mm pods are smaller, the coffee output is weaker. I contacted the manufacturer pointing out that there website lists redundant suppliers, but they are not interested. Other points: the water reservoir for the machine is made of plastic and water left in it, eventually tastes...

Russell Hobbs uno uno Coffee Maker - You can buy the pods from 7 shops as stated by the manufacturer. No you cannot !!
No one stocked the pods.. the only place you can buy them are online direct from the company.
That means you have to buy in bulk to last you the
whole month.
They do not take all major credit cards either....
