curious--how come do you dont fancy the Nespresso machines? I had a Gaggia, a Saeco, and finally a Jura something...and I hated the fact they were expensive, high maintenance, and big..so then my friend showed me his Nespresso...and I was hooked....so simple...put in the pods..put the milk in..whamo--a latte ready to go..

for us overworked and underpaid Americans...it does a good job.
