    As with any coffee maker it depends on the coffee that you use. I bought a box of different types of senseo coffee and a few dutch coffee pads to try. Sure enough there are several of the blends that I really don't like and some that I do.

    The Philips HD7810 Senseo Coffee Machine itself well the only gripe I have is amount of coffee it produces. I'm not sure how Philips define cup size but I'm yet to find a cup that will fill to an acceptable level. So its 3/4 filled small mugs or a large mug.

    Other than that I'm really pleased with this machine. I've had a 'proper' krupps pump filter machine for years but this is so much easier to use and a lot easier to find a coffee blend I like as I'm only doing one cup at a time.

    I've also purchased a 'coffee duck' which allows me to use ground coffee in the machine. No leaks no fuss (unlike some reviews I seen) but I have been careful how I fill it.

    So overall 5*'s for me!

    I have had the Senseo for over three years,i have just broken it and so decided to see what else is out there. i really cant find anything comparable, something i know will work as well and give as good a cup of coffee as this one does so i am just going to replace with another one.
    the main reason being that i use the eco-pod and put my own blends in, my only gripe is the tiny water tank and its fiddly release but I can live with that for a machine this good for under £50!

    Philips HD7810/60 Senseo Coffee Machine does exactly what it says on the tin ! Makes a decent cup of coffee very fast. Also plenty of choice available so to all those people who say they don't like the coffee it makes: "just try another brand / roast" . You have a lot more choice than with Tassimo, Dolce Gusto, Nespresso etc., if you they don't stock them in your local shop check online.

    am on my 3rd Philips HD7810/60 Senseo Coffee Machine and have drunk no other coffee at home since i recieved the first one as a gift, however my only gripe really is the small water tank as i use it so much and i have got used to only having a small cup as the single pod doesn't give a full cup would be nice if you got more

    When I decided I wanted a coffee machine I did lots of net surfing to narrow down my choice and was amaed at the amount of "pod" type machines out there.

    I could not justify £100 on one so opted for the Philips HD7810/60 Senseo as it was the cheapest AND there are Eco-pods available that allow you to use normal filter coffee in the Senseo.

    The Eco-pods are available on-line and basically just take normal filter coffee. You fill up the "pod" - insert it into the machine and it makes th ...

    Philips HD7810/60 Senseo Coffee Machine makes great coffee - I buy my pods on the web from Direct Coffee Pods. Much greater variety than you ever find in supermarkets. Easy to use and small enough to stay out on a work surface. Much cheaper than other machines so good value for money. Have not used instant since buying this. Water tank has a removable top piece that can be fiddly. Also it tends to drip from the outlet whilst fitting, but seals after that.

    I love my Philips Senseo HD-7810. I use two pods per mug and the taste is this best coffee i can get without going to starbucks. make sure you put the milk in the cup and stick it in the microwave for 20 seconds then make the coffee, this affects the final taste of the coffee and also stops the final result being maybe not hot enough for some people if you use milk.

    The mug size you get of the Philips Senseo really are a large mug, I warm the milk up first as I prefer it that way, the coffee is hot without doing that though, great tasting coffee, I like the dark roast, the coffee has a lovely frothy head on it, I keep looking at the eco pads that you can buy off ebay, so you put your own coffee in but I like the coffee so much I'm not sure it would be the same. Might get round to trying them soon.

    This Senso type of one cup brewing will eventually put the coffee barista concept out of business. Automated pod brewing is very popular in northern europe today. Starbuckshas seen it's golden age. Frankly, living in a gastronomic ghetto like Oakland / Berkeley, California for the past 28 years, and having consumed Peet's coffee and other strong robust brews from the Northwest,I find Douwe Egberts coffee pods to be a welcome change. Face it - europeans have been consuming coffee longer than ...

    Good machine, good coffee, much better than normal filter coffee machines good value for money. I just hope that eventually more pods that are available on the internet will become more widely available in our supermarkets.

    Nothing good really. Coffee is as weak as water.Only uses prefilled bags so no choice in coffee. This is a gadget that makes coffee. Not a coffee maker.

    Excellent value easy to use and quick and clean. So will be used rather than sitting in a cupboard. Looks smart.

    The machine seems a good idea but the quality of the coffee in my opinion is awful.

    As we have tried Douwe, Egberts and Kenco pods are not to our tastes ,rather than keep buying other makes I understand that there is method of using your preferred coffee with this machine.
    Can anyone advise please as to whether they fine them, successful.

    Everyone I've made coffee for, using my Senseo, loves it. It is fun to use and very quick when you're in need of a coffee fix but don't want to make an entire pot. My hubby and I, and our teens, just love our machine and we've enjoyed every flavor and type they have on the market so far with no regrets!

    I just cannot get on with the taste, it just tastes so manufactured to me. I much prefer ground or cafeteria coffee.
    Sold mine in eBay after a few months!

    I've read comments about people finding the coffee weak, but I have not experienced that. Douwe Egberts Senseo comes in mild, medium and strong flavours, and my wife and I use the medium. The decaffeinated tastes good too. Kenco pods were available from Tesco and Sainsburys (and they were cheaper than the Senseo), but they've stopped putting them on the shelves. Perhaps a sign that the popularity of the machine has waned.

    We live in a very hard water area, and it is noticeable that the produc ...

    My wife bought me this Philips HD7810/60 Senseo because I like strong coffee, but it's not that effective and I've had two replacements in 7 months because of faults. You can buy a lot of ground coffee and a cafetiere for the price of this machine and that's my recommendation.
