New coffee machine
Discussion
This weekend I picked up one of these.
It's bloody good for £175 (bought from the High St, it's available cheaper online but I was impatient) It serves up lovely strong espresso, has a milk heater and frother for lattes and cappuccino and looks decent too.
Bad points is that the 'nespresso' capsules are only available online or from Selfridges but I can live with that.
I'm impressed and recommend it. That is all.

I've got a Nespresso machine and can honestly say it's the best gadget I've ever bought. (After the Elise of course.)
The Nespresso 'Club' thing I intially thought would be a nuisance, but so far so good. Stuff ordered online was delivered next day.
The only downside is that it's seriously addictive. I'm on 6 (or more) cups a day. Caffeine dervish.

Good choice 
I have an older Magimix Nespresso machine and if it broke I would be off to the local kitchen shop within minutes to replace it, it's one of my essential kitchen toys and making a morning coffee with it is quicker than making a cup of instant. The coffee isn't quite as good as freshly ground beans and a proper machine but it's pretty much there and an awful lot less hassle.

I've got a Magimix Espresso machine. Much older looking model with a combined filter / espresso but uses fresh coffee rather than capsules. Was £200 odd about 5 years ago, but I was well impressed by the quality of the coffee and the good news is it has been faultless ever since.
Good choice.

i've got the magimix m100, lesser model but still good, i'm really pleased with it... at least its easy to use and clean, my old Gaggia was a right PITA!
thought the online club would be a pain too, i only had mine a few weeks, i did the intro offer can't remember how many pods i bought, but it was a shock paying nearly £70 for some coffee LOL

I also have the Magimix M100. Excellent. I also got the intro special - 250 capsules for £65 or something like that.
I'm currently hooked on making quickee lattes - half-mug of full fat milk, 1 min in microwave, top up with 2 capsules of strong Nespresso. Stir. Perfect.
