There are many coffee pod doses that are much cheaper and also operate safely. Until I had this box once in hand, I could not really imagine big differences between coffee pod doses. As I said, until then ... This can feels much more robust than the standard Senseo doses but are indeed made of very thin sheet. I think it will be difficult to dent this box. (Which was me, unfortunately, very quickly succeeded in Senseo variant) The painted surface is really great. The box looks stainless steel brushed-typical great. Thanks to the paint but really stay on it no fingerprints. I think that money is well spent. :-)
Update after nearly 4 years of use: My initial enthusiasm is undiminished. Nothing wears out so far, the lid closes continue super. I'm staying with 5 stars!
