We have a Bosh Tassimo and we love it. Hubby and the kids have had a variety of coffees and i love the hot chocolate.
We tend to buy the pods when they are on offer or in bulk via Amazon.
One of our fave buys  |

Have a Nescafé Dolce Gusto and I bloody love the thing. Waking up in the morning and just flicking a switch for a coffee to go is great. No waiting around for the kettle to boil, and lovely frothy heads on cappucinos  |

I have a Dolce gusto machine. It makes a decent cup of coffee and there's a large variety of different kinds to buy.
It bothers me that the pods are not recyclable but I reduce my carbon footprint in other ways. |

I looked at them but it seems wasteful and expensive. Plus only some you can get a widget that allows to use your own coffee.
I have a delonghi espresso machine and I love it. It has a smaller boiler inside that means not too much water is heated up, and it has a proper milk steamer (not just a frother).
Mind you, I also have an aeropress, a drip coffee maker, and I make cold brew... So... Might be a bit of a nerd.
My coffee loving partner got bought a coffee pod machine years ago by his parents, but says he doesn't really like it and wishes he had a normal espresso machine. He finds it wasteful, expensive, and restrictive. |

I've a Philips Senseo machine 
No plastic nastiness in pods; it users a filter type "pad" that's fully biodegradable
I get my pads from Holland, and there is a great choice and variety at a great price  |

At home I grind my own beans and have a DeLonghi espresso machine and steamer. I used to have a stovetop one but save that for camping trips these days. I bought a Nespresso Aeroccino for work and have reusable pods for it so I can use my own blend and everyone else in my team has their own pods. It's normally me who ends up cleaning it and washing all the mugs though. Buggers. |

No, just a bunch of moaning minnies who used to spend a fortune on coffee shop coffee. I persuaded them all to chip in, cleared a space in the office to put it and we pretty much saved the cost back the first month we used it. |

I was given a pod thing for work.
It gets used every other morning for an espresso or two.
At home I have a proper ground coffee espresso machine.
Best of both worlds, if you're interested is a type of compressed teabag-style paper espresso pod called ESE pods. They are convenient with no mess or plastic waste.
You can also get some refillable pods if you're interested in waste reduction. |
