We are thinking of getting one for the office. Seems like it will save us all a little time and give a good brew. Anyone use or have one?

Yeah we have one but I dont drink Coffee but my bosses have them all the time and love it. They also have one at home. People have come in and commented on how good the coffee is but then I've had a coffee connoisseur come in a claim it is not up to much. I think the coffee smells very nice.

darylB has one, PM him.

As an alternative to a tassimo - consider a Nespresso machine. They don't make tea - only coffee - but you can buy a range of coffees from the nesresso website, and it's fantastic. We have a Magimix Nespresso machine - wasn't cheap but it's terrific.

Mines a Flavia, they do loads of different coffees, Teas, Chocolate, look on their website, only downside is you have to order off the web, usually takes 4-5 days for delivery. works really well though. They do a home version and an office version. Can recommend it. Even Ed likes the coffee. http://www.myflavia.com (http://www.myflavia.com/eu/default.aspx?CountrySelection=en-GB)

I think they are ok, but i prefer caffetiere (sp) coffee, or filter coffee.

I find they have a certain emptiness to the flavour?

Thanks for the comments.

Did a quick search on the Nespresso and they seem to have has some good PR behind them.

Nespresso is more expensive but worth it.

Tassimo- choc is ok and coffee not bad, not too fond of the tea.

I like the Senseo Coffee taste.
