Braun Tassimo Hot Beverage System TA 1400 Reviews

The first one of these i had was for christmas, i was really looking forward to a cafe style coffee so i plugged it in, followed all the instructions to then find out that it was faulty! So took it back boxing day got another one, finally set it up and it worked. I wasnt impressed with the taste of the coffee at all, i'd much rather boil ...  Read the complete review

Offering to make a coffee for my husband when he wasn't feeling too good, I didn't quite realise what I was getting myself into with the Tassimo. I had been shown the day before how to work the machine: ensure there is water in the back section reservior, put a small (3/4 size) mug in the slot, turn it on, wait for the light to come on, put one of ...  Read the complete review

A nice little machine, convenient for home use. Easy to use, refill and clean. That's where the good points end. True coffee lovers will be disappointed with the quality of the drinks and the 'drinks machine' taste which they deliver. In the office a couple of my colleagues now choose instant coffee every time over the coffee produced by the ...  Read the complete review

I bought this machine last Christmas and used it none stop morning and night for about 1 month. I became somewhat tired of this machine soon after mainly due to the effort of having to dismantle it and clean it after each drink that contained milk, I therefore started drinking herbal teas from my machine instead and saving the coffees etc to when ...  Read the complete review

I love coffee, my wife loves coffee. We have tried the usual old fashioned filter machines, the cafetieres and even those little one cup sieve things. All do the job fine, but the mess and effort, what a drag! Okay so my wife wanted one of these new 'cleaner' pod coffee machines for Christmas. I said okay find the one you want and hey ...  Read the complete review

I love 'proper' coffee and have been put off of buying a coffee maker because I am the only person in the house who drinks proper coffee. The idea of this machine really appealed to me, just making one cup almost instantly with no mess, fuss or waste. I was quite surprised how big and bulky the machine was, fairly heavy too. But it ...  Read the complete review

I received this as a present on my 19th birthday. As a student I know the value of being able to get tasty coffee quickly. This machine is easy to use and easy to set up. You just plug it in, put water in the reservoir, add a pod and at the press of a button you have a hot drink. One of the best things about it is that there is no real ...  Read the complete review

I bought this for my husband as a Christmas present, but in all honesty I think I've taken it over! Set up was a breeze and we had it working in minutes. For a while I thought the drinks were on the small side, then I realised there is a boost button which allows you to add more water, which still filters through the cartridge, so doesn't dilute ...  Read the complete review

For my recent celebration of the anniversary of my 24th birthday (I refuse to get older than 24) I couldn't decide what I wanted as a present from my boyfriend. As I am a complete coffee-a-holic I stumbled across the humble Tassimo (in my bosses office, while I was being nosey) and decided that this would be the perfect gift for myself. After a ...  Read the complete review

I bought this appliance in the january sales and managed to snap it up for £50 which is a bargin!! The machine is very simple to use and after a good clean was a instant hit in my home. I'm not a coffee nut like some people in my home but it makes a very very good hot chocolate, and tea. The discs which you use are actually cheaper buying ...  Read the complete review

Got this machine as a christmas present and Im extremely happy with the item. My partner was purchasing a coffee every day from a well known coffee shop costing us approximately £20 over the week. Since having this machine and using this for his coffee instead of him buying out, we have saved ourselve around £17 a week! And the coffee really does ...  Read the complete review

What a Fantastic invention?! Coffee, tea or hot chocolate is just a botton away, it is easy to use, easy to clean and produce great quality especially with the increasing range of coffee products, shame we still hasn't got the 'starbucks' capsules coffee for this machine yet which is out in the US now. It is a highly recommended product for ...  Read the complete review

The Tassimo coffee machine has been around now for 3 or 4 years. I got mine a couple of years ago as I am a BIG coffee drinker, and wanted something that was more "professional" than instant coffee, without the mess of a cafetiere (is it me, or does everyone have difficulty cleaning out the grounds?)..... ......so a Tassimo ...  Read the complete review

**Update!** In Nov 2008 my Tassimo machine broke when I was running through the cleaning cycle. I rang Tassimo who asked questions about what had happened, then they gave me a freepost address to send the machine to (to a repair agency that was nearest to where I live.) A month went by and still no word so I rang Tassimo who put me ...  Read the complete review

If you have read my other reviews you will know I also have the Dolce Gusto and my honest opinion is that this one is the better machine for a couple of reasons which I will explain. When we bought this from Currys it was priced at £109.99 which included a free starter pack with coffee discs included. There is a more updated version ...  Read the complete review

We purchased one of these about a year ago after seeing it regularly advertised on the tv. We liked the idea of having a machine that would make it easier to make the perfect cup of hot chocolate but that could also make many other drinks. We paid about £80 for it but there is a newer model available now priced at around £90 to ...  Read the complete review

We purchased the Tassimo machine on a bit of a whim at the Ideal Home Exhibition. My husband loves his coffee on a regular basis and the demonstration was really good. This machine is now in constant use. We mainly stick to the regular coffee discs as these are our favourite but also buy the luxury coffee ones for sunday mornings. We found that ...  Read the complete review

I've had this machine for 3 years and it fulfils all my requirements in terms of variety of functions, ease of use and good looks. It has to stay on display on my kitchen surface so must look good. Admittedly the pictures displayed on websites often make it look as if it is has a metal casing when in fact it is silver (or maybe red in ...  Read the complete review
