Great coffee maker. I love my Tassimo. This model offers a water filtration system which is great.
I use this machine more than anything else in my house. Being a mom of 3 I need this machine for a quick cup of coffee during the day.
Luv my Tassimo ! Many types of coffee are available, my boyfriend and I can pick coffee to our liking (I like it stonger). No more fighting over which coffee to prepare for the next morning. He also loves huge coffee cup, Tassimo lets him "allongé" his coffee to his liking.
I really like my Tassimo machine. You can brew coffee, make Cappuccinos, Latte's, Espresso, Hot Chocolate and Tea. The packs are usually inexpensive and usually go on sale at Walmart
I've had my Tassimo for over a year and absolutely Love it. I like the variety of coffee blends I can make - latte's, cappuccino, hot chocolate, rather than other brewers that only make coffee or tea. The variety keeps growing and it's fun to make my own combinations - one I love is making a Mochccino - hot chocolate, espresso, Latte.
i love it. i don't know how i got along without a brewer before. it is easy. quick, tons of flavours, maxwell house, gevalia, nabob, second cup. The prices are fair too. Always makes my beverages perfect everytime! Works with and without a water filter. Can pour water in at anytime. You can top it off with water too. If you use a bigger cup most brewers don't do this!
After we bought the Keurig brewing system, we noticed that Tassimo T-discs are available in much more varieties so we decided to add a Tassimo brewing system as well! I will have to say that the Keurig machine is nicer, more powerful, but the coffee drinks that come made for the Tassimo are much better! We get the nabob cappuccino t-discs and latte packs regularly, then add a few pumps of Starbucks vanilla or toffee nut (my favourite) to sweeten the drinks and it's lovely.
As with everything maintenance is required, we have to "de-scale" the tassimo regularly and I find once in a while the t-discs leak and do not empty out all the way, so I have to cut them out and pour out the remainder. It is for that reason that I gave it a lower rating for Quality. Overall though, I am very happy with the machine and would suggest it to everyone that loves making coffee at home.
Between the Keurig and the Tassimo, the Tassimo definitely wins. The range of types of coffee is excellent, from regular to latte to iced tea and pretty much everything in between. These newer models are faster than ever (I'm on my third machine) and the lattes come out hot and flavourful. Pricing is ok for the pods, but the machine can be found for as low as $60 in some places when on sale.
My only issue is that with the regular coffees and espresso there is a slight aftertaste to the coffee - and almost all the regular coffees taste pretty much the same, whether it's Nabob, Second Cup or McCafe.
This is my go-to single cup brewer! I love that I can keep adding extra hot water if necessary. You can't do that with other single-cup brewers. Some of the discs are perfect as brewed, but some can be almost espresso-like, and it's nice to be able to put a bit more water in the cup without ruining it. The only thing keeping me from giving this 15 full stars is how pricey the discs can be, and hard to find. I usually order once or twice a year when they go on sale and I stock up. Otherwise I'd use this machine every day.
