Pandora's Casket

I'll tell you I have been through at least 10-15 coffee units in three or four years. No not by breaking the carafe but the unit it self.

I have purchased expensive ones, cheap ones and poof broken in less than 3-6 months. Although I did have one that I believe lasted over 6 months that was an off brand.

I was selected to purchase a Senseo coffee pot for only paying the shipping. Shipping was only $15 so I thought what the heck

Now, I just purchased a coffee pot for $10 for the kitchen (again) and another pot that is more for an office or party that is a 36 cup from I believe the 70's. The one that is older is great. Plug it in and it perks. The other one, well, it is now slower than slow at making the coffee and I think already on its last leg.

Back to the Senseo. I love the sleek design and that it makes coffee by the cup. You can make 2 cups or a mug at a time also. I have the machine in my room where it will not be broken.

The pitfalls of this machine? Well, the pods are high cost. Worth it to me though. I have actually cut down on my coffee intake. Another thing the unit is a little noisy when warming the water up.

I like it though and it was worth the money. Would I spend the $70 - $80 for one? I doubt it but then again I am cheap.
