This product is just okay. I wanted to switch back to a single pod-style machine that also had espresso pod capability. Technically speaking, it does the job. The big downside for me, is that it seems tiny. I was surprised upon opening it up that it only fits very small, narrow cups, and that's even with taking out the drip completely and having to balance it on something to not tip while the coffee is brewing. I can't brew into a bigger cup, travel mug, etc. If you want this more for espresso, which uses small cups, it is probably a good choice. If however, you're more interested in daily regular k-cup pod use with the occasional espresso, then you should invest in a larger machine. Could also only figure out how to use it after watching YouTube videos.
