After taking this coffee machine out of the box after purchase I first noticed how stylish and affordable it looked sitting next to the rest of my silver household appliances. With its simple yet affective design made me use it more and more and infact I don't know where I would be in the mornings without it!

After filling it up with water and adding my first cappuccino pod I switched it on and watched the right balance between coffee and water hit the bottom of the cup including a frothy top layer I was even more pleased after taking the first sip!!

Although this may look like a good point it did infact take a few minutes and a few glances at the instruction manual to make sense of it but after you work out how to use it its an absoulte lifesaver for when your in the rush and in dire need of your daily coffee.

Pro's

- You can brew 2 cups of coffee at the same time
- It's quick and takes under a minute to produce
- There's alot of choices when it comes to the coffee pods
- Coffee pods aren't as expensive as other brands
- Drip tray pulls out so its very easy to clean
- Designed well and very stylish
- Washable parts are dishwasher safe

Con's

- I admitt it did take a while to figure out when first purchased
- Slighty noisy
- Doesn't really inform you of when you need to re-fill with water
- It turns itself off after an hour so causes confusion

All in all this is a great coffee machine and the Pro's definatly outweigh the Con's and for Under £60 it is a great addition to the kitchen.

There's not alot I can say really about this coffee machine except I would give it a 5* and it is a recommended buy.

Also 1 coffee pod is equal to one cup of coffee as they supply the cups for you to put your coffee in. I believe the pods are around £3 mark in most supermarkets and you recieve 8 coffee pods which is equal to 8 coffees which would cost you around £25 if you ordered 8 coffees in Starbucks!

I bought my coffee machine from a high street store and I paid £59.99 but I believe they are £49.99 in Argos and also available in Black.
