Really high quality European style coffee with excellent thick "cream" on top (the lighter brown tiny bubbly stuff floating on top) at a reasonable price per cup. For "Americano" or weaker coffee, just press the large cup button once or twice for an extra 4 or 8 oz. Many of the espressos that come with the maker are strong enough to add more water from the system. The size of this product is so tiny it almost has no footprint on a desk or cabinet. It's long and thin so only 2" is the width that you see or look at. It literally could be a book on your shelf. The description on this site, shows that this product takes two size capsules. I believe this is incorrect. This takes just the Original Nespresso and similar capsules. The two choices are 1.35 oz button and 3.72 oz button.
