Cons: T-discs can be costly, hard to find locally

Over the holidays I purchased the Tassimo Hot Beverage System for my husband. He loves coffee and previously had been using a Senseo machine to make single cups of coffee here and there. We'd found that if we made a whole pot of coffee then ...

Pros: Excellent drinks, easy to use, and has a water filter.
Cons: Slight noise, some sticker shock.

I purchased the Tassimo at Bed, Bath, and Beyond as a replacement for a replacement. (I had previously purchased the Krups Il Caffe Duomo from Sam's Club and it turned out to be one of the worst purchases of the year!) SIZE: The Tassimo comes in a ...

Pros: Easy to use, cost effective, looks good, better than most drip machines
Cons: Not as good as freshly ground, the milk for lattes tastes like creamer to me

Before you run out and spend your hard earned $100. on the Braun Tassimo Hot Beverage System (read: “coffee maker”) you should consider what type of coffee drinker you are. If you are a person who enjoys a hot cup of coffee, tea, or hot ...

Pros: Wide range of drinks and flavors, easy to operate if you read the directions.
Cons: Slow warming/brewing, dribbles, t-discs don't taste as good as original brands.

We're on our second Tassimo single-cup espresso machine here at my office. I had been considering them for home, in part because of the brand selection and the auto-programming features. The cost was a barrier though; they come down to $100 but not much ...

Pros: Easy, fast, virtually no cleanup, and a good selection, including non-coffee drinks.
Cons: A little difficult to find all varieties in local stores.

First, let me say that I also own a Philips Senseo coffee pod machine. At first, I was happy with the Senseo, as I only occasionally drink coffee, but once you open a package of coffee pods, they go stale pretty quickly. I have retired the Senseo to my ...

Pros: aesthetically pleasing, great taste, ease of use, variety, quick
Cons: T-DISC purchasing difficult, mostly caffeinated, no plain water, sometimes watery taste

We purchased this product at Linens 'n Things for a Mother's Day gift. Needless to say, our mother was incredibly happy to receive it. Pay attention to all of the offers with the machine. At our Linens 'n Things, they had 2 different box sets (of the ...

Pros: Virtually, no cleaning, great tea and coffee, very quick.
Cons: Chocolate is muck, expensive discs.

As I sit here drinking my Tassimo English Breakfast Tea I cannot help but think how bizarre my world has become. Who would have thunk that my new gadget the Braun "Tassimo" could replace my kettle, teabags and assortment of instant coffees. Yet ...

Pros: AWESOME graphics, plays Blue-ray discs
Cons: one controler, steep price, bulky design

Now, I need to start off by saying I am not as big a gamer many of you reading this might be, or as others might expect me to be, with this rather early review... I did not stand in line for hours nor did I spend 2 grand on eBay to get the new Sony PS3. ...

Pros: Good coffee-very easy to use. Makes a huge variety of hot drinks. Very attractive looking.
Cons: Lack of variety of t-disk producing companies. T-disks expensive. Loud machine.

Tassimo won't be sending any coffee shops out of business, but it is a nice addition to the kitchen. Tassimo is capable of brewing an incredible variety of hot beverages including; coffee, espresso, crema, lattes, cappuccino, tea, and hot chocolate. ...

Pros: 1 cup in 1 minute, fully automatic, huge variety of beverages, tried and true.
Cons: no size selector, water container and power in back, there are better models offered.

The Tassimo single serving drink dispenser is an amazing concept. I first tried it at a friends house when I came over to watch movies. He told me he got a new coffee maker that would also make lattes, cappuccinos, espresso, and tea. In disbelief he ...

Pros: Great tasting coffee, simple, fast and no cleanup!
Cons: I, personally, don't like the milk in the lattes and cappucinos, but that's just me

We ordered the Tassimo because everyone in my home LOVES coffee (Starbucks every day, meaning many bucks every month) but no one likes to actually bother to make coffee, myself included! I am always late to work and NEVER want to make a pot of coffee for ...

Pros: easy, clean, neat, reliable, good coffee
Cons: expensive T-discs

I love coffee. I have for a long time. I'm one of those people who relies on that caffeine kick in the morning to start the day. I hadn't gotten into the habit of making it in the morning, simply because that took time that could be put to ...

Pros: Great gaming console and a Blu-Ray player
Cons: Not many launch titles, no HD cables included and no user-replaceable batteries in controller

I have to say that I love my Xbox 360 and I've had it now for almost a year. When the PS3 was announced I was sceptical about all that it promised and was shocked at the price. Needless to say, I decided to take a wait and see approach. My wife, ...

Pros: Lots of processing power / Connects to PSP / Runs cool Runs quiet Sixaxis Controller
Cons: Lousy launch titles / Heavy like VCR / Price = 2 Car payments Sixaxis controller

I am not a lunatic. I don't commune with aliens. I don't eat my own waste. And I never, NEVER wait in line for days for a video game console. As the release date for Sony's Playstation3 drew near, you knew that you were going to see these people ...

Pros: Blu-Ray capability, future customization potential, it is basically a PC
Cons: Expensive, lack of good titles, doesn't play HD DVDs

The Playstation 3, or PS3 as it is more ubiquitously called, is Sony’s attempt to take over your living room and entertainment lifestyle. This does not have to be a bad thing. For reference, I take advantage of the PS3’s capabilities- I have a ...
