HOLY MOLY I LOVE THIS THING!! When looking for a new coffee machine, I needed one that had a multitude of functions: individual servings, espresso, full carafe, etc. This machine meets all of my needs and works BEAUTIFULLY. Although the machine is a little pricy, I think it's well worth the investment. Plus, you don't have to waste money on k-cups! It comes with an eco-friendly permanent filter, a milk frother, what seems like a million different settings for both coffee and tea... I could go on. Simply put, this coffee machine is a godsend. Do yourself a favor and buy this.
