The smartest version of the new Tassimo-generation!

I had even a Tassimo of the first generation, which was then manufactured by Braun. The design of the machine has changed a bit, they are now slimmer and more compact. In the higher product lines there are small displays. I'm looking for this (cheapest) Tassimo opted out of the new generation, because:

- Best price / performance ratio in the new generation
- Simple, cool design, which can be varied by changing the front fascia colored yet
- Do not need a display that guides me through the simple brewing process

Now to the essence:

The best thing is that the machine is super fast. Those who knew the first generation that will be here very pleasantly surprised. You can now press the button directly to insert the pads and in a few moments to start the brewing process and the coffee / tea / etc. is ready. The taste I am satisfied with all varieties that I have tested (all Jacobs coffees, Milka and Suchard cocoa -> here I recommend the addition of cream, Starbucks coffee -> tastes stronger than the Jacobs, but this is also expensive .)
The taste is of course impossible to judge objectively. Who can, maybe you should try it before buying, acquaintances or business. But I think that it tastes relatively normal, that is, you did not try any flavor experiments in force.

I have the unit for about 3 months and it's going great, no dropouts, relatively uncomplicated cleanable. I use this machine in the way of still mineral water, because my old Tassimo always super fast calcified (and it might also broke down after 2 years ...). Works quite well so far.

The only drawback with the machine is the price of coffee, which is very high. But I suppose for the convenience of easy preparation willing to accept, as I do not often drink coffee, but would still have several choices here, if only for company.

CONCLUSION: Can I definitely recommend!
