It does use the pods from lidl.

We bought the coffee machine from argos last week, £34. Actually, the one we got is the newer model.

are there any major differences?

I bought this last week for £29 on Amazon....it is now priced at £63.70 on there.

The reviews on Comet prompted me to buy this as a Christmas gift

Only major differences seem to be the design

A few small differences such as, the new one has an adjustable spout so you can use larger mugs easier, a slightly larger water tank, auto shut off to save energy, descale function....

Pretty much the same machine though. Only £5 difference so if they don't have it in stock it may be worthwhile knowing.

How much are the pods in lidl? are they nice?

liam8282

I think they were about £1.80 in lidl for 18 1 cup pods.

We only just got ours, so haven't had anything to compare to yet, but the lidl ones are good.

You can also get pods in tesco for about £3, but they are large pods, 2 cup / 1 mug size. So are roughly the same price.

I have heard you can also get a reusable filter called a duck or something, so you can use ground coffee if you want to.

There was a thread on hot uk deals about the Argos coffee maker and it had a lot of helpful information about the pods and accessories tha you can buy.

Lidl sell pods in 3 blends... Brazil, Colombia & Kenya. Melangerie brand Pods. £1.59 for 18. Gold Winner at 'The Grocer Own Label Food & Drink Awards 2011'. 9p a cup. I prefer the Brazil & Colombia blends, as they're stronger than the Kenya blend.

Taken from hot uk deals

As detailed in various contributions above, for Senseo pods the current base line best value:
£2.99 buys you 20 mug size pods (ie 2xsmall) at Tesco ie around 15p/mug or 7.25p/small-cup (2 at a time)
£3.18 buys you 2 x 18 small pods Lidl ownbrand (Columbian or Brazil or Kenya) ie around 17.5p/mug or 8.8p/small-cup

Excellent, will be buying this as it will save me a shed load of cash for not going to Starbucks any more!

Bought one of these last year and really love it, I'm assuming the Coffee Duck will still work with it, it allows you to use any ground coffee. I usually stick half a mug of milk in the microwave and then top it up with the one cup button, luvverly.

Lidl pods work fine, I prefer the Brazilian ones, we also found proper Doue Egberts Brazilian pods for 99p in the , erm , 99p shop in Newcastle-under-lyme.
