Philips Senseo HD7832 Coffee Maker

I bought this unit since I am the only coffee drinker at home and wanted something better than instant. This larger Senseo has a larger water tank and can make more cups without being refilled. Since I only use it on the weekends, I have to turn it off and unplug it to keep the water in the tank from boiling away. Otherwise, leaving it on wastes energy and requires you to reflush it before using it again. Since it heats up so quickly, this added time once a week is no big deal. Since I am used to a BIG MUG of coffee, the most that this unit puts out on a double cup is a bit short of my large mug. Clean-up for these units is quite simple. Just remember to remove the used pod(s) once you are done. The Douwe Egbert's coffee sold for this unit is quite pricey, especially the new cappucino (about 50 cents/small cup). I plan to try out other coffee pod makers to see if I can find something that tastes as good, but is cheaper. These pod units are a great alternative to the normal pot for just one or two drinkers. Plan to pay more per cup in exchange for the added convenience.
