Philips Senseo Espresso Machine Reviews

I receieved my Senseo pod coffee machine through a promotion and got it for the cost of shipping only.  I was hesitant to try out a new coffee maker and thought the use of a coffee "pod" was silly.  I didn't see myself needing or desiring a single cup brewer.  I figure for the cost of only shipping, being the coffee fanatic that I am, I'd give it a try.

I am SO glad I did!  I use my Senseo almost every day.  It is perfect for that quick fresh brewed cup.  This works out so well for my husband and I.  He gets up much earlier than I do and normally, he'd have a pot of coffee brewed, but by...

I received my Senseo Coffee Pot free a couple years ago during a promotion that Senseo was giving out. (They still have these promotions but often you have to pay fifteen dollars for shipping now.) Anyway, I took my pot home and tried it out and loved it! The coffee is fairly good and it makes the best foam ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love the fact that it makes an individual cup of coffee one at a time and that it is very quick. I also love the fact that I can purchase the coffee at the grocery store (unlike Flavia which has to be purchased online) because sometimes I run out and don't want to wait...

I got this machine for free!

 Two years ago, the co. was runing a promotion to get people to switch from their old drip-style coffee makers to this sleek ultra-modern machine.

I decided that I wanted to try it. When it came in the mail, I tried it right away just to see how it works and what the coffee tastes like. It was fantastic!!

 It makes either two normal size cups or one large mug. You need two pods to make enough coffee for a mug though. Comes with two different size pod holders - one for one cup of coffee and one for two-pod use. Comes in red, black, white and blue.

 Honestly, this machine...

I got mine through the Senseo program also and for $15, it was a great investment.  My husband and I aren't everyday coffee drinkers so this is perfect for us.  he wakes up early and he can make his own cup and if I wake up later, I can still have a fresh cup.  Yes, it is noisy but I can handle the sound for a few seconds.  I have had the leaking problem but just once or twice and it's never a bad leak at all. 

 The pods ARE expensive.  I wouldn't recommend this for the heavy coffee drinker since you can easily go through a pack of pods per week.
