This coffee maker has a nice sleek design, which is great because it takes up less counterspace. However, this machine is extremely LOUD.....the first time I made a coffee, my husband who was across the room at the time said "Is it supposed to sound like that?!"

CBTL - can't beat this latte

I really like this machine. Better price than K cup brands that were too pricey for me, plus I got the $50 mail-in rebate. The CBTL pods are sold at BB&B and online; you may not find them elsewhere. The CBTL pods are smaller than the K-cups so they are not interchangeable. You CAN, I repeat CAN use the milk pods from Verissmo brand (Starbucks) machine, but CANNOT use their coffee pods. Their pods fit, but they don't have a filter under the foil and the grounds pour into your cup. So, my message is, buy only the Verissmo milk pods. I like the CBTL Hazelnut black w/ stevia. I would not put milk in this flavor because it really dilutes it, it was already mild at level 2. The other CBTL pods are stronger at level 4 & 5 and I use the milk pods for those to back them off. The milk pods are 2% fat around 50-60 cals each. The CBTL machine has a loud hum, but it powers up fast and only runs a few seconds. It drips a 2-3 drips if you move away fast, or just tap it. It's size and the adjustable cup levels are its high points. The cleaning is easy, paper towel only. I use Brita filtered water in my tank.

Better than Keurig Vue!!

I just got this one a month ago. The coffee is so delicious! I ended up returning the Keurig Vue because the coffee was water down even when I lowered to the smallest cup. It just didn't give u the coffee shop quality you wanted in the morning. No wonder I was still driving to the nearest starbucks or Cbtl. Making cappucinos is fairly easy. Make sure you got the frother too. I definitely recommend this one over the Keurig if ur looking for that strong coffee quality and not the water down.

I just bout this machine and already rushed to the store to get some more capsules, these are really good flavors. Gave a quick to demo to my folks and now they want one too!! It's really ideal especially if you are like me and always on the go, this is your go-to coffee, ready in 2 minutes!!Tastes just as if I put on a pot and brewed it. I can't wait for other flavors to come out!

I love, love this coffee machine. It uses pressure to brew even the normal coffee packets, which makes it soooo smooth, rich and creamy. It was the best Christmas present ever thank you Mr. !!!!!

Poor results

The Espresso is decent and that's about all. The coffee in any size 8, 10 & 12 is watered down and not that hot. The tea is set for 9 oz. and comes out luke warm and watered down also. I would have to say with the size of the capsules there just is not enough of the good stuff inside to make a good cup. Also it does not make Hot Chocolate like a Keurig does. I already own a good espresso machine so this is pretty much useless for anything else it claims to make.

A MUST HAVE!!!

I spent weeks reading reviews and talking to friends to decide which single-serve coffee maker to buy. I am so thrilled with my decision with CBTL. The coffee is seriously the best I have ever had. I like basic coffee, so the fact that there are not hundreds of types/flavors available does not bother me. I love the 10% Kona blend in the morning.

My husband does not drink coffee, so I bought him some of the teas to try out and he now uses the machine more than me. He drinks it hot or will put a cup of ice below to make iced tea.

The silver machine looks great and it is so much smaller than my coffee maker (which is now on a shelf in our garage). I love how sleek and clean it looks and takes up so much less space. I also love that I can keep it under my cabinets while it brews since it does not produce tons of steam and moisture like a traditional coffee maker does.

The coffee quality is far superior to anything a Keurig maker can produce and the machine is so much more dependable. I look forward to getting out of bed every morning now just so I can make my coffee...yes, it's that good!
