Tassimo

CoffeeIV4me

Would you recommend?Yes

Just want to add my experience. I have owned every Kuerig except the smallest on, and they have all stopped working. I also got the Cuisinart for K-Cups and the pump and mechanical parts sounded the EXACT same as the Kuerig, so I knew it was going to go down. And it did. It seems to me the pumps in those other units are cheap.

So, on to my Tassimo. What I will say is the Tassimo is louder than my other coffee makers. And there is no auto start. However, the loud pump is kind of reassuring as it doesn't sound like the hamster parts in the other coffee makers. I loved the Cuisinart coffee. That brewer goes slow so the coffee came out very rich. The Tassimo does just as well, if not better. There are alot of variables to good coffe. I think the brew speed is one of the biggest things for these type of machines. Kuerigs come out fast and brews weak. Tassimo has a perfect brew speed and it comes out HOT!
The coffee is selection is not as extensive as K-Cups, but I am a pretty snobby coffe drinker, and it seems most dedicated coffee drinkers are not into the flavored coffee too much. The King Joe (I think it's called) coffee for this Tassimo is AWESOME. The other great thing about this machine is it is much smaller than the Kuerig and Cuisinart. All in all, I would recommend this over any other single serve I have used.

Tassimo T55 is far better than any Keurig

PostedApril 26, 2013

LTim

from Columbus, Ohio

Would you recommend?Yes

I have worked as a barista for over 5 years, and can say without hesitation, the Tassimo T55 is a superior machine. I have owned the Keurig Elite and the Keurig Vue, and consider the Tassimo 55 extraordinarily preferrable. I have tried the Verissimo, and still preferred the Tassimo 55. Tassimo 55 has all the abilities of the Keurig Vue that include stronger or weaker, larger or smaller cups of coffee, espresso, cappuccino and latte options. As an experienced barista, the water quality, heat, and shot timing are as critical as the beans and their grind setting. The heat setting of Tassimo is optimal, making the heat settings of the Vue a useless option that is one more problem to go wrong. The Tassimo 55 is quieter than any Keurig. The Tassimo is a much smaller machine which is functionally and decoratively superior to the Keurig. The Tassimo does have a smaller water tank, which was a concern at first, BUT I soon realized that my sink was 4 steps away and I actually preferred refilling, as I no longer have stale water sitting for days in tank. The water filter is a great option for the connoisseur. The cappuccinos and lattes out of the Tassimo 55 are quite good, and truly pathetic from the Vue. The Tassimo foam lasts and does not have that sweetner added by Keurig. I have tried all coffees, and Tassimo discs provide GREAT tasting coffees for every palate. From the acidic to smokey, from the rich to mild, from the flavored to the skinny cappuccinos, the Tdiscs offer a full variety. I won't discuss the Keurig Elite as it was a horrible choice for flavor, options and noise.

Awesome Coffee Maker

We've been using Cuisinart Grind N Brew coffee makers for years, but my husband started complaining about the coffee just not tasting as good as it used to. Then our daughter & son-in-law bought a Tassimo single serve coffee maker to replace their Keurig. When we tasted the coffee from the Tassimo, it was delicious. So we went home and bought one of our own. Great coffee and so much more convenient that the grind n brew coffee makers.

We have wanted to purchase one of the new type of the single cup coffee makers. We researched many of the different products on the market. We are happy with our choice we make with this brewing system. All the coffees we tried has an excellent favor. The Tassimo T55 is also easy to use and clean.

Good coffee maker, but supplies are hard to find!

NYCmax

from NY, NY

Would you recommend?Yes

I have two Tassimo machines and I agree that the technology is great. Coffee is easy to make and tastes great.

The biggest drawback is buying coffee and tea that work in the Tassimo. As often reviewers have written, consumers are stuck trying to find these supplies either at Bed, Bath and Beyond or Amazon, and if you go the BB&B route, the selection is poor and the prices are high.

I begrudgingly rate this as a product I would recommend, but with the caveat that it's a bit like owning a dinosaur. You will feel like you have to travel far and wide to buy coffee for it while everyone who owns a Keurig can buy their K-cups at any grocery store or even Dunkin Donuts.

I've had one for a few years now and it was time to get a new one. I love this one and it was very easy to set up and start using. I know the disks are hard to find, but I would just as soon have them shipped to me anyway. I also have a Target close by so I can run there and get some very good coffee too.

I bought this puppy a couple days ago and couldn't be happier. I really loved using my Grandmothers Kuerig Platinum so I figured I'd do a little research and buy one of my own. I found that the Tassimo machine had better overall reviews than anything made by Kuerig . I haven't had any technical issues with the machine thus far. I"m a casual coffee drinker so my opinion on the taste of the coffee doesn't really matter much, I think it tastes great, but I don't have a seasoned palette.

When I first received my Tassimo I was in love with the idea of making a latte with one button. I was disappointed when I opened the package and realized the machine didn't come with a couple t-discs.

The t-discs are hard to find. My typical stores don't carry them and my favorite websites (soap and amazon) are always sold out. Using Tassimo's website, I placed a large order and requested auto shipment every 4 weeks (about $50 per order). I received an email stating there was a problem with my order. I called customer service and was told I submitted my order 5 times and "overloaded the system". I apologized for the error, explained that I did not intentionally place my order 5 times and asked the duplicate orders be cancelled. She argued with me about why I would submit my order 5 times. Her only solution was to cancel all 5 orders instead of cancelling 4 and shipping one.

I also experienced issues with the milk/latte t-disc leaking on to the bar code reader leading to an error light when making the next cup of coffee. Easy enough to fix but annoying when you consider what you pay for the machine and the coffee.

Hard to find t-discs + expensive coffee that does not taste great + terrible customer service = not worth the ongoing cost of owning this machine.

Sorry Tassimo.

Makes good coffee and capuccino quickly. The foamy milk is perfect. My only complaint is it does not alway read the barcode on the coffee packet. The viewing window needs to be cleaned if a drop of milk spills on it. Sometimes the packet needs to be finagled with. I've had one that just didn't work and I had to toss it away. I'm trying to be careful when cleaning the window so I don't scratch it to the point it won't read the barcodes at all. We'll see how it goes. I don't want to return it because when it works, it's great.

the only place i would ever get coffee from was starbucks because i drink mochas, so when i saw that starbucks had there own brewer i figured it would make multiple drinks, but no. The tassimo is the only brewer that does everything from plain coffee, mocha, cap, lattes, espresso, creme, tea. It boggles my mind why anyone would buy any other brewer, the price is awesome and nothing else out there compares with the options of drinks. Best christmas gift ever.

After owning a Keurig for the last 4 years we went shopping to look at the new Vue. At the store we were surprised at the cost of the view cups and lack of avail. varieties in the store (I'm sure they will be more available soon) on the way out I saw the Tassimo brewer but I'm a research buyer so we went home and I checked reviews. We have other Bosch appliances and have been extremely happy with all of them so that made me even more interested. A couple days later we went and bought the brewer and couldn't be happier. It's fairly fast compared to the Keurig we have had no clogging issues, I can brew a FULL strength 16 ounce cup for .60 cents a cup compared to the dollar for vue cups, and you can still have the option of incresing the brew size above that if you wish. The lattes and Caps. are really good with frothy REAL milk not powder. All in all there is nothing I feel our old system did better the Coffee is as good if not better and hotter, hot cocoa is better, and the latte and espressos aren't even comparable. In all fairness we loved our Keurig and I felt bad switching but in honesty for us this is a better system. The only thing I can say in a negative light is there are more flavored coffee options currently for the Keurig and you must make sure the barcode on the T-disc is flat, or it may have trouble reading it. A quick gentle fingernail across the foil assures this. By the way a quick prop for Bed Bath their return policy is amazing we had our first Keurig go bad and they took it back with no box no questions asked, I don't even think about buying these things online now!

Looked at reviews and did the research and decided to go with the Tassimo. We just brought it home and brewed a coffee and a latte and are VERY happy with the purchase. We trust the Bosch brand and were impressed with the workmanship and styling of the brewer. Looking forward to many more great cups of coffee!

If you love good, easy coffey, look no further. We have used few machines in the past and my wife questioned me why try another. She later admitted to liking this machine. Just one minor complaint, the water tank is too small and empties quick. The water level is not vesible from the front, and you may run out of water mid run. Other that that, it is a Bosch quality product.

The price was right, so I ordered this for our use at home. WE were very unhappy, so returned it the next week and bought a new Keurig. That was several weeks ago and we have been extremely happy. Not enough selection of coffees and not able to make just hot water for our own teas, etc. with the Tassimo. So glad we got another Keurig.
