Me & my wife researched a coffee maker for our new house for months - I'm talking 6 months; and that's before we even bought the house. We both love capps & lattes so were looking for a single serve coffee maker. We looked at all of them - Keurig, Tassimo, Senseo, Dolce Gusto. We were looking for variety, quality of brew & product, durability, & price.Obviously Keurig gives you the most variety as they are the #1 Single Serve company in the US; they also do have a Fill-Your-Own-Coffee pod which is nice. Price was OK too, but the quality of the product & durability were issues. We've read mass amounts of reviews with horror stories of pods exploding, water leaks - not something we wanted to get into. Plus with the Keurigs you need to get the expensive ones to get the best out of it & you're still dealing with break downs regardless. Also, people complained about the temp of the coffee.Tassimo's coffee quality seemed OK. Price was good too - we liked that you could buy the pods at BB&B easily. But once again we heard stories of pods exploding, but not to the extent of the Keurigs. But we were still very interested in Tassimo.Senseo was never really in the game considering the quality is substandard & variety is small.Which brought us to the Dolce Gusto line from Nescafe'. The variety is average in all honesty with only Nescafe' producing the pods, but the price points of the machines were good actually - the cheaper one I think was $89 & it has good reviews but we were looking at the expensive ones to see about quality & if it were worth it. Quality of the brew was something we heard good things of, especially on the higher models due to the pressure systems.After it was all said & done we decided on this one, The Genio. We have been loving this thing! The quality of the standard blend is OK, strong but OK. The others are awesome! Capps have been great, Mochachinos have been wonderful, the latte was outstanding! My wife tried a Chai Tea Latte the other day & has been in love with it. The machine is a little loud, but in the other room its barely noticeable. We have been very pleased with the coffee maker & pods. Buy them in bulk on Amazon - saves money & join their rewards program! 10 points per box - 100 points = free box. You buy the bulk boxes from Amazon you get $30 purchase - you can't go wrong!

I got one of these for Christmas, and I wasn't sure about it. I'm not a fan of buying capsules, but I figured what the heck. So I gave it a try, and I absolutely love this thing. It's cool, it's really small and doesn't take up much counter space. It fires up in no time, and it makes a top notch cup of espresso. I really like the lungo pods (long shot of espresso - 4 oz.) These come out a bit weaker than an espresso, but a good bit stronger than a regular coffee, and I've been drinking way too many of them lately.The Americano (regular) coffee from this is decent, although the pod selection is less than a Keurig, but this is really an espresso machine. Also the pod based cappucinos are surprisingly good. Forget the cost of the pods, I'll have saved enough Starbucks cash to pay for this in no time. Unless you plan on dropping a grand on a real espresso machine, this is the guy you want.Also, it leaves a really nice crema. Very impressed, and couldn't recommend this more.

It's a good little machine when it works.Coffee is good and strong;enough flavors to keep everyone happy,and a terrific system for making cappuccino. However,we are on our 2d machine,had to return the 1st and call Nescafe customer service to get the replacement working. It seems that when these sit around for a while in a warehouse ,something in the unit dries up,doesn't pump water at all out of the carton and needs to be primed.Maybe fresher inventory would have solved the problem?It comes with a 2 year manufacturers warranty,and Nescafe customer service seemed very competent (enjoyed the USA based representatives)They got us up and running, so we'll keep on using it.*4 month update-The coffee started coming out lukewarm after a month or two ,we needed to heat it in microwave to be drinkable.Called customer service(Nescafe)and they recommended descaling. went through the descaling process(tedious) and no change in temperature .still lukewarm. called customer service again,they offered to exchange the machine,2 weeks later,new machine came and was dried up,would not prime,no water,burning smell. I think when the next machine comes,we will liquidate the pods we own and just phase out of the Nescafe Dolce Gusto program.The company tries hard,but quality control is poor.
