It's obvious that these machines have a lot of ardent followers, because
they come up frequently here. The Keurig seems to be the one most often
touted, and I have to admit that I didn't know there were any other
options
out there because the other ones (like yours) hasn't been mentioned. (Not
that I read all the messages, as I'm not a coffee drinker)
I would suspect that Consumer Reports might have a comparison article on
these machines, and if they don't it'd make a great suggestion for them.
And
since Consumer Reports is one of the magazines the nls does in audio for
each issue it's available for folks to access, too. There's the option of
searching EBSCOHost too if your local library offers it as an online
database, (many do as it's a popular resource) so that's another search
vector for this information.
Though I sympathize with your desire to get substantive information on
this
and other topics, there's going to be a lot of opinion expressed, both on
and off topic, as folks tend to be highly enamored with their own
opinions
these days. Best to ignore the worst offenders or filter them out of your
reading preferences, as it's inevitable that some folks aren't going to
get
along with everyone. I know it's frustrating, but that's life on the
internet.

OK so you wouldn't buy one because of the cost. I get that but anyone
on this list can seek out the cost of these machines and the costs of
each cup of coffee using purchased discs especially made for one of
these coffee machines. I know I did before purchasing my Tassimo.
Again saying you would not buy one isn't to me giving feed back on the
machine as you obviously do not have or want one. I guess When I say
feed back I mean for example, which ones are the best for flavour or
value, how do they work, do they make a good cup of coffee, where are
the best deals or would you ever buy one again.

Opinions on the machines should be allowed, don't you think? There
should be no problems with someone stating that, in their opinion, they
are overpriced. I, for one, am not saying that you should not buy one.
It's your money. Do with it as you choose. I would not pay that price
for a coffee maker that makes 1 cup at a time when, if I so chose,
could get a 30 cup coffee brewer for less. More bang for the buck.
This might have a bearing on what someone buys, and should be on topic.
