Usual Price £52.99. Makes Espresso, Cappuccino & Latte. Extract from Which? review... 'Our expert taster highly rated the espresso's super dark gold crema, & the lovely sweet dark aroma & taste'. Score 79%. Note that Which? excludes price from assessment criteria, so the score reflects performance not price.
This machine has two filter baskets, one for loose ground coffee & one for ESE pods, e.g. Melangerie brand Pods. £1.49 for 18. Gold Winner, The Grocer Own Label Food & Drink Awards 2011. Available at Lidl & possibly elsewhere. That's 8p a cup. Can also use Senseo Pods.
Compared with 'Pod' Machines like Tassimo, Nespresso, Dolce Gusto, etc the running costs are much lower...
Tassimo Pods 25p a cup. Say 2 cups a day. That's £182 a year.
ESE Pods 8p a cup. Say 2 cups a day. That's £60 a year.
So ESE Pods are £122 a year cheaper than Tassimo Pods.
