Krups KP1006 Review by Slicey, webmaster "www.thelwordonline.com" (Chicago, IL and Sydney, AUS)

This wasn't the machine I wanted to buy. I initially wanted a Tassimo because the Keurig doesn't brew espresso drinks. I was disappointed to find out that Tassimo has stopped selling Starbucks espresso pods as I don't think that the Gevalia makes good quality drinks. I decided to pick up a Dolce Gusto to try out a different brand that does offer espresso beverages. There weren't many reviews to read, so it was a bit of a gamble, but I was purchasing for my office so I wouldn't be stuck with the bill if it didn't work out. ;-)

I planned on getting the larger model, with a bigger water reservoir, but I needed one ASAP so I bought the only model they had at a local grocery store - the Piccolo. It was only $89 locally. The small water reservoir is way too small for any office. This is just going in our conference room for when we have visitors, but you can only get 2 drinks out of it before you need to refill.

I've used Tassimo and Keurig before and I assumed that this would function similarly to a Tassimo. You put in one pod and brew the espresso, then put in another pod and steam the milk. WRONG. There is WAY too much room for human error to affect drink quality with this brand of machine. The lever that lets you control the strength of your drink is a nice idea in theory, but will likely result in poor tasting drinks for most users. The instructions tell you how many ounces you should brew for different drinks, but in my experience people are not very good at judging what 3 ounces or 7 ounces of liquid looks like, so I assume that most espresso would be over extracted and most milk will end up watered down.

This machine would be great if you pushed a button and it brewed exactly the amount that it is supposed to. Making the customer have to judge when to shut off the brewer is just poor design, in my opinion. You also feel like you're "wasting" product if you shut it off too early - it leaves you guessing if you brewed it long enough.

The drink quality was fine - not great. I'm switching back to Tassimo. The machines are excellent even if the drink selection offered by Tassimo is subpar. I'm hoping they will get with the game and start offering new suppliers in wake of the increasing competition in this market.

I use this at work. It is small, so doesn't require a lot of space. The various coffees are a hit with my coworkers as well. I like being able to control strenth by how much water is used. The capsules are easily available on Amazon, and the price comes down if you subscribe. I would recommend this in a heatbeat. The only caution is, if you are someone who likes a great big cup of coffee, you'll need to do two servings. I love the small. Like a short at Starbucks.

I love this little machine! It makes your drink in about 30 seconds and the flavors are wonderful. It also is really easy to operate. I would definitely recommend this product!
