I love coffee and it’s been part of my daily routine since I was very young. I’ve tried so many different machines over the years and hate the waste of making a full pot only to get called away, or using pods and not being able to recycle, making one cup and wanting another but not wanting to wait, or just having a machine stop working. I LOVE this machine. You can reuse the pod filter so you save plastic, make a pot for yourself and a cup of decaf for a friend, so many options without waste and always hot, well brewed coffee. With other one cup brewers I’ve had in the past, my coffee was never piping hot but it IS with this machine, never an issue. Highly recommend
