Customer Reviews

Size may inhibit using /gifting this item for a small kitchen.
I am reviewing the Tassimo w.r.t it's size only , and not as its function. That's why i am giving it a 4 star. I am assuming it performs adequately, but its not recommended for everyone becuase it is a large gadget to add to a kitchen counter. For a single person living in a small space, it takes up more room, compared to other appliances, in relation to the amount of use it will probably get. Also storing the coffee and tea takes up a fair bit of cupboard space. Also not a good gift item for a single person, although the function of the Tassimo seems to fit the needs of a single person. But many single persons live in smaller quarters, so before gifting this item, make sure you understand the other persons feelings about using up a chunk of thier counter space for this. If not, you might have a situation where the person actually returns the gift or awkwardly has to refuse it, which is what happened to me, when they opened it and realized the size.

This is my baby!
I LOVE this machine. The last fancy coffee maker I had was a Melita that was a fancy grind and brew. Made great coffee, but then you had to clean it up. The clean up was awful. I also had a little espresso maker and milk frother. I am not a Starbucks worker so I never got the hang of it nor the mix right. Enter Tassimo.
The coffee is super. So many flavors. My husband likes dark roast and I like lattes. We can have both and not waste. This is great for people with mixed preferances or that wake up and want a cup at different times. The clean up is a breeze. Just toss the pod! If I make a latte or other milk frothed beverage I give a quick rinse to the one little circular thing that is easily removable.
I love the chai lattes too! For buying the coffees you can use coupons at bed, bath and beyond or at linens n' things. I have picked up the pods on sale at Target too. I have ordered specialties from Tassimo direct and the servie is always super fast.
You pay for the ease of always having a fresh cup, the ease of no clean up, the ease of selection for everyone....really it is great.
If you try and make one cup in a conventional maker it is awful. This machine is great. I would not hesitate to get it again!

Great Unitasker.
My wife swore that this would end up like the coffee maker i got her for xmas. Use it once or twice then in the cabinet for ever. She was wrong. The entire family uses it. I like the English Breakfast Tea, wife likes the Chai Latte, kids like the hot chocolate, and every one likes the capochino. Fast and tasty hot drinks. Great selection of drinks to choose from.
