Advantages: quick coffee for guests

Disadvantages: unclear instructions, makes coffee too sweet

My husband was given this as a Christmas present this year. We drink a lot of coffee but prefer filter coffee to instant. My mum therefore thought this was an excellent idea as it was sold as a quick an easy alternative to messy filter papers, coffee & waiting for the water & milk to heat. We also loved the fact you were given a free sample of each of the coffees & a nice coffee cup & saucer

I was really excited but once we opened the gift I was soon disheartened. The instructions were very unclear & even though my husband likes gadgets & using new things he was bored after 3 attempts to get it to heat up.

We eventually sorted it but through trial & error rather than using the instructions. This was a waste of the free coffee that was provided. The coffee was also very sweet unless you had an espresso. The pouches as much cleaner than using our old machine & it is nice to give you guests a choice of coffee but only if they like sweet coffee.

Summary: Nice gadget not for true coffee lovers
