I hesitated to offer me, because of the negative comments about the smell of burnt etc., and as someone had noted that the new quadrante did not smell, I tried and I am not disappointed; nothing, no smell, even when unpacking neutral! This is why I decided to put a comment in my turn ... Now time will tell if she takes a long time or not! By cons, taking advantage of Christmas I took also the square Senseo cups ... they are bigger than what I thought and drink that is not practical, not drink at once it goes on the sides !! ! But then they are beautiful! Best Wishes to all.
