Since my wife and I often only every three or four cups of coffee a day and drink more often a different type of coffee, ie coffee or normal roasting, the Senseo New Generation is ideal for us. I order coffee frequently bring from Holland or Belgium, where he is particularly cheap to buy. At Amazon, there are the coffee but also very competitive to buy against the supermarkets. I particularly appreciate the diversity of the coffee pod varieties are in at least 16 different flavors and three or four packs, it is never boring. With a special attachment for espresso, I now also quickly brewed espresso. The cappuccino can brew with the normal attachment. Since we have here in our area water hardness 1, the device must never be descaled. For occasional coffee drinkers I recommend the very machine. I have three units (two at home and one unit in the office). I'm looking forward to the Senseo with frother.
