Yes I know they sometimes don't read the bar code and the t pods cost more ...but if you use a filter 0r other the avoidance of the mess and
clogging of the drain is well worth the premium.
so leads to a good source of these machines.
Or if you have one collecting dust ...... 
tassimo are crap ours went in the bin. get a nespresso machine the coffee is 100x better. thats all i have to say about that
this is the one we have got it even comes with a milk warmer/bubbler thingy thats really good.
Click
they cos £130 but you get a voucher inside for £40 worth of free coffee so it makes the machine £90 which isnt too bad considering it comes with a
3year warranty and all the bells & whistles

Hi, I bought the missus a red bosch one for xmas last year it been used every day since and she'd kill me if i got rid as she loves the suchard
hot chocolate, quite partial to some of the coffees myself, we live in a very hard water area so its needed descaling three times. sometimes it doesnt
read the code but you just clean the window and move the pod a bit
I havent tried any others but ours is great so i would recommend them
got ours from currys direct if it helps

Are these the units that use little sealed plastic pouches of coffee or cocoa mix?
A good friend has one, they're perfect for the office where you're in a hurry and multiple users can't be counted on to clean up after
themselves but I prefer to grind my own at home, better bean selection and more control over strength -- the machines can't really do a decent
espresso.
But I like my espresso strong enough to hold the spoon up, and can't be bothered with fancy flavoured coffees.

Use a Cafetiere, real locost with coffee from Ikea/Aldi.
Cheers,

Yeah, cheap perculator, Alidi coffee. A great start to the morning
Make is resonable strength with 3 sugars and it makes a great lactulose solution
We use the Aldi Arabica rich roast and it's lovely stuff. We use a cafetiere when away camping and it leaves a bit of sediment but alright for
one off use.
