Krups has hit a homerun with this new coffee/cappuccino maker. It is easy to use, flexible and makes both coffee and cappuccino easily and with no fuss or bother. I decided to order one when I saw the Folgers cappuccino pods in the grocery store and noted that they were for the Home Café system. They certainly did not fit my much-used Senseo. The Home Café system is similar in concept to the Senseo system but much better thought out and engineered. I have tried to compare the two systems below. I believe if you look at each one you will wind up as I have strongly preferring the Krups.
(1) The Krups system can make either one or two cups of coffee at the same time. Each will use one Millstone/Folgers pod. Strength can be varied by altering the amount of water used - 6 oz, 7.5 oz or 9 oz. The Senseo system by contrast can offer only two strength levels, full and half strength and can brew only one cup at a time.
(2) I found the low mug clearance (3 ˝') of the Senseo a real problem. Most mugs are taller than this. The new Krups system has a clearance of a little more than 6". My travel mug fits under this.
(3) My Senseo sounded like steam engine warming up while the Krups is quiet. Both are noisy while brewing but the Krups is quieter.
(4) The Krups has a 48 oz water tank, the Senseo a 26 oz.
(5) The Krups has a carbon filter to eliminate chlorine, scale and other nasty things that ruin the taste of your coffee while the Senseo does not.
(6) The most important difference - cappuccino!! With the new Folgers cappuccino pods this machine makes an excellent cup of cappuccino with no more trouble than making a cup of coffee. I have tried a number of cappuccino machines in the past and this is the easiest to use and turns out consistently good results. It will not be as good as the best you ever had at Starbucks but it will be a lot better than the numerous disappointments you have had and more than good enough to draw compliments from your friends.
The big drawback to this machine - price. At $119 it costs more than twice as much as the Senseo system. It is however much more user friendly, provides a better cup of coffee and makes a great cappuccino to boot. I strongly recommend it as a present to any coffee/cappuccino lovers in your family or even to yourself.

I received the krups 1010 from Amazon yesterday. It makes excellent coffee! I purchased it to use in my workshop because of the one hour auto cut off feature. I once left a regular drip machine switched on for three days in my shop. It melted and burned after all the coffee evaporated out. I was lucky that it was plugged in on my welding table which is fire proof,or my shop may have burned also. Unfortunately my wife tried it this PM, and now I will have to get a second one for my shop. Our regular drip machine, a 10 cup Bunn, is now in a cabinet and the krups pod brewer belongs to my wife. Unlike a previous reviewer stated it will use a variety of pods. I purchased Seneso, Maxwellhouse, Yuban, and Millstone pods along with the 1010 pod brewer. They all work equally well. Fit and finish is excellent. It does not leak. It is fast and easy to use. It does not splatter. My wife and I can make two cups at the same time using different types of coffee in under one minute. I prefer the 7 1/2 oz setting using the Senseo Dark Roast. She likes the flavored varieties which I can not stand no matter what they are brewed in. It also has a setting for 5 and 9 oz. If you find that the flavor/freshness of the coffee in your regular machine deteriorates after the first cup you will be pleased with the consistency and freshness of this pod coffee maker.

I'm totally pleased with this product. I researched the single serve coffee machines for hours on end. I selected the Krups over the Braun, the Keurig, the Senseo and the Tasimo for the following reasons:
1) the Krups can make 3 different sizes of beverage, with 9 oz being the largest;
2) the Krups can brew 2 servings at a time;
3) the coffee pods used by the Krups are widely available (even at Wal-Mart and my grocery store) whereas the K-cups (Keurig) and Tasimo discs are harder to find;
4) the Krups machine costs far less than the Braun;
5) the Krups comes with two different sized pod holders--large ones for coffee and small ones for tea (the idea is to have no transfer of flavors).
I use my Krups at the office. I keep gallon containers of bottled water nearby and can offer visitors a nice cup of coffee or tea. (You can put the tea bags into the machine itself or simply let the machine produce hot water and brew the tea in the cup). In the summer, I think I'll use it to brew a couple 8 oz. cups of tea, let them cool to room temperature, and then ice them down in a large glass. More cost effective than visiting the soda machine, and better flavor.
The Krups gets the water so hot that I've even used it to make Ramen noodles.
The Krups warms the water and and brews coffee quickly (in about a minute). The machine is not particularly noisy, and it does not make a mess. To the extent it ever sprays or splatters at all, it does so when the pod has not been carefully tucked into the machine. And even then, the mess is very minimal.
I also like the auto shutoff feature. This way I know that I won't burn the office down over the weekend.
