I’m going to have to be upfront about this – I love Bosch! My garage is like a Bosch showroom of tools. Why? They are just so well built and go on forever and this machine is pretty much the same.
The machine above is the red version (obviously!) but you can get one in black or silver (£69.90 and £74.97 respectively). I think the red one just looks so much snazzier!
The bar-code technology, means the machine reads information off the special T-Disc (Tassimo Disc) beverage containers, and adjusts brewing time and temperature accordingly.
The Pros
- Build quality is excellent!!
- The coffee is lovely and the ‘discs’ come in a variety of flavours. More than 40 beverage varieties are available in the special T-Disc packages, including ones for cappuccino, tea, latte, and hot chocolate.
- Very very quick to get a cup of coffee
- Very simple to clean – jug at the back and the drip tray are both easy to fill and clean
The Cons
Well, believe it or not there are some drawbacks:
- The discs. Please bear in mind the costs of these. Whilst not massively expensive they can surprise some people. Discs are readily available from all high street supermarkets.
Overall Verdict 5/5
This model is slightly more expensive than the other 2, but the way it looks more than makes up for this! Coupled with the fact that it produces great coffee as well, this really is a fantastic machine.
