This has been a very reliable, compact machine.
The coffee tastes as good as I've bought at the cafe.
Non genuine pods don't seem to work as well as the genuine ones the flow is slower.
Easy to keep clean, easy to use- just press one button and voila! Great coffee at home

Great little compact machine, easy to use, doesn't take up much room. But you have to keep it clean though by running a pod free cycle after each cup just to rinse it out. The pods are expensive and you have to buy online in multiples you really need 2 pods for 1 cup of coffee.

First of all, it makes great espresso no doubt.
Upon further exploring on the feature set, It was then realized that water level indicator had never worked. Out of curiosity, a further examination revealed that water level detection hardware wasn't even built into the machine although the recess is there. To me, this looked like a cost cutting measure by removing some key features without customers knowing its existence.

Machine has been great, made I don't know how many cups of coffee, we usually have at least one a day, but at 75 cents a pod, we don't go overboard. BUT, now the capsules are coming out miss-shaped after being used, and sometimes I need to take them out and replace them in the unit for the coffee to come out. They look like they have been sucked dry by a vacuum. Weird.
But all in all, the Pixie has been great.
Anyone suffering with this problem ??????
