I think my husband and I have found the machine for us! He drinks a lot of coffee while I like a lot of different teas or lattes. Our old machine would get his coffee grains everywhere and would end up in my drink. Not with this machine! Very huge plus for me, and it also comes with a built in frother! He's starting to play with the different roasts and found one that he really likes. Machine does so much it's great! Another thing I like is that I can place the water jug on the back or side. Easy on space.
