    I got a Dolce Gusto for xmas last year and it has been used daily ever since.... what a fantastic machine....

    I must admit i never really like strong coffee, and so this machine is just superb as you can limit how much milk/coffee you like, and make it as strong or as weak as you please. Adore my dolce gusto - the coffee is superb and always hot and frothy just how it should be, and the hot chocolate is amazing too.... frothy enough to hold your mashmallows on top for a while... lol

    REally easy to use, even my little sister and cousins use it with ease and theres no danger of burning...

    Fantastic....

    Just to add I also have a Tassimo machine and since buying the Dolce Gusto hardly use it.
    In true money saving style I have started to use both together, because I have pods for both, and my preference of the 2 is by far the Dolce Gusto.

    i have one and love it - i buy the espresso or lungo coffee so you can add milk to it instead of using a powdered capsule - i heat the milk in the microwave for 10 seconds and then add it - its gorgeous !

    My OH says its not piping hot - so i heat the milk - but we love it and use it nearly every day.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I was at the Grand Designs exhibition yesterday and they were doing demo's. The new skinny was fine for me, I liked it, can't say I really noticed any difference. No vouchers, shame. I really wanted to ask if I could have all the boxes they were binning for the codes, but as cheeky as I am I just could not bring myself to do it.

    They were flogging the machines there for £99, what a rip off!
  • Both myself and my brother got one last Christmas.
    Mine was from Argos when on half price (dec2008) ... It went wrong june 2009, pump went I had lost receipt but had credit card bill luckily was swapped over no probs.

    BUT also bought one from Currys at around same time on half price for my brother. this went wrong other day where had a water leak and was pumping water all out of front and was also coming out of the joints in the plastic! Took back to Currys, and said exchange no problem Thats another £50 please?????!!! Due to price increasing we had to pay difference in price. He went for a different make of coffee machine.
    Never buying from Currys again!!!!:mad:

    Personally I have lost faith in the machines as 2 failed in 10 months!

    Love my Dolce Gusto! Got mine in the run up to Xmas last year when it was half price at Argos. At the time there was also a lot of cash back offers, I'd got a £20 voucher from the Good Food Show. There was also a £10 voucher as well. So paid £30 for mine:T

    I just received a free sample in the post of the new skinny cappuccino and skinny latte macchiato.
    Along with 2 x £1 off vouchers.
    Must have come from my order last week using the points for a pair of new cups for free, I don't remember asking for free samples.
    Don't forget to register your machine online to join the club and don't forget to save the numbers inside the boxes for freebies!

    Arrrh! Were the money off vouchers in with the coffee samples, I got some today and threw the little box out. I can't say I saw any vouchers in there.

    Yes they were. Oh dear! It was a letter inside the box that they were attached to, at first I thought it was just info, but on closer inspection there were 2 X £1 off next purchase vouchers at the top (or bottom) of the page.
