Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Senseo Coffee Pod System with Holiday Gift Pack
Customer Review: Enough of good coffee
Summary: 5 Stars
I often read people's reviews before buying a product to get a true experience; so here it goes: I have had my Senseo machine for 3 years now and am very happy with it and the coffee it serves. My wife drinks no coffee (love's tea) but finds the Senseo machine very handy and easy to use. It even saves the coffee we otherwise would have to throwaway if we would make a full size pot.
The machine serves small cups of good quality (Dutch brand) coffee within 3 minutes, including filling the water container, placing the pod (single filtered coffee serving), heating the water, and pressing it ready to drink into your cup.
The machine is very popular in Europe, Holland especially, partially because of the combination of two popular name brands of the coffee (Douwe Egberts) and the electronic manufacturer (Philips) in combination with good marketing strategies.
Don't expect to fill your travel mug with this Senseo machine, as its primary focus is for you to sit down and enjoy a small cup of coffee, with the emphasis on small and sitting down. If you like coffee from any of the fast-food restaurants or common known coffee place, you will probably find it difficult to accept to get enough good coffee in your own home just from the push of a button on this Senseo machine.
Keep in mind that the coffee pods, sold in packs, are somewhat expensive, but come in several different flavors. In Europe they sell many more different kinds, but slowly they are introduced on the US market as well.
The machine is very solid compared to comparable machines that I have tested in the store. The Senseo machine is easy to clean, much easier than cleaning any other coffee pot/machine by hand. It also fits well on your kitchen counter and is easy to move around. I even took it with me on a road trip twice to use at the hotel.
All of the family and friends that visit and try this coffee came back, so that is a good sign I guess. They also inquired about the machine and asked to try out different flavors. The limit quantity of coffee one cup serves is justified by the aroma and cr?me-like taste the Senseo coffee creates. It is the closest it gets to European (non-Italian) coffee at home available in the US. I am very happy with my Senseo machine. My suggestion is to wait until Senseo comes out with rebates and discounts at least twice a year. See website.
