TASSIMO Review
Just before Christmas a very special package arrived and I felt like a kid on Christmas morning! It was a TASSIMO T45 Suprema which is something I had been wanting to have for SO LONG!
Right away I wanted to set up and I am proud to say I figured out how to do it on my own. I am normally awful figuring out how things work and get John to do that stuff, but there was no way I was waiting for him to come home from work. I wanted a coffee now!
It took me about 45 minutes to set up- remember I am VERY SLOW at this sort of stuff, but I felt so good when I was done.
Let me first explain what the TASSIMO is before I get too involved in talking about how great it is. TASSIMO is an Automatic Hot Beverage System that gives you the perfect cup of your desired beverage with the click of a button. You can enjoy a coffee, tea, latte, cappuccino, hot chocolate, etc of brand name coffees like Starbucks, Nabob, Maxwell House and Gevalia Kaffe (just to name a few). It uses the T Disc Technology which is basically just putting in the T Disc for the drink you want into the machine and pressing the button to start the process. It takes about a minute to make and comes out hot, fresh and delicious every single time.
The T Discs are pretty neat. The TASSIMO reads the barcode so it knows what drink you are making and will adjust temperature, how much water is required and brew time. It even froths your milk for your lattes! You can also make different drinks in a row and not worry about the taste transferring from one to another.
I’ve tried just about every single kind of T Disc I could find in my area. I wish we had more selection here because there’s some of them that I’d be interested in seeing what they are like.
My favourites? Starbucks Breakfast Blend, Nabob Latte and Nabob Cappuccino. I drink coffee ALL DAY LONG and had a serious Tim Horton’s addiction prior to my TASSIMO’s arrival. Now I barely get to Timmie’s anymore and have replaced their coffee with TASSIMO. I know I am saving money because I went to Tim Horton’s at least once or twice a day.
You can purchase TASSIMO at many locations in Canada including The Bay, Zellers, Sears, Future Shop, Sears, Home Hardware and more.
My mom has one too and we were both talking about how great they are. If you are a coffee drinker (or tea drinker,etc), I totally recommend it- it’s awesome!
*I was not financially compensated for this post. I received a sample of the product for review purposes. The opinions are completely my own based on my experience.*
I got to review the Tassimo Brew bot and LOVEEEEE that one. Also took me a bit to figure it out but not it’s easy as anything!
I am in love. In the last two days. I have been drinking way more coffee then I should!
Does this mean maybe a giveaway is coming up in the future? Momma needs a new coffee machine!!
I have barely been drinking Timmie as well. I actually prefer my Tassimo to Tim Horton’s. I think it helps though that our Tim Horton’s doesn’t hire people on knowing how to follow customer directions on how many sugar and cream they want.
Do you drink a lot of coffee?
My husband looked at these and decided to get me a espresso/cappuccino machine instead because we drink a lot of coffee. I brew a full pot in the morning and that’s gone by the afternoon, then we drink espresso after dinner. He thought it would be too expensive to keep up with your addiction.
Oh yes! I drink a few cups a day…if I don’t get a migraine so I know I am addicted. It’s cheaper for me because I used to go to Tim Hortons at least twice a day so now I stay home and am saving money. I love the cappuccino and lattes too.
The Tassimo is pretty amazing!! I love how simple and neat it is, amongst other things.
A phenomenal selection of beverages but no decaf. Maybe they are working on it? π
I thought I saw some decaf at Zellers actually. I wish stores in my area had more selection. I’d love to try the Gevalia coffee.

Ok. You win. I want one, bigtime. Foamy deliciousness from my own kitchen? Yes, please!
I’ve been lucky enough to receive 2 different Tassimo brewers over the years to review. I have one for my home and one for my dorm. I love them both! Yummy!
OOOH, I have the Tassimo BrewBot and though I am not a coffee drinker, the Milka Hot Chocolate is FABULOUS! Oh, yum yum yum! Plus, the entire machine was a huge hit at my Christmas Breakfast this year. The kids could have hot chocolate and the adults could have their choice of cappachino’s, coffees, etc. fun!
I have a different name brand one of those and it is awesome. And I don’t even drink coffee all that much!
I want one! I drink coffee, hot tea and hot chocolate.
I KNOW YOU LOVE it. After hearing you talk about it, makes me want to go and get one. Hope it is keeping you warm and awake out there in the snow.
Hugs.
I ran out the other day and haven’t been able to get to the store to buy more coffee because of the snow. Oh and I ran out of oil last night too! So no coffee and I’m cold LOL!
AHHHHHHH NO OIL again? NO oil and coffee is a bad combo when you are cold. Hopefully the snow lets up. Come visit me in the sun. π
I’ve heard these are nice. We don’t drink coffee or tea though so not worth it on our end.
I’d love it for the tea. If I could make hot cocoa as well, I’d be thrilled to have one. My husband is the coffee drinker and he’s happy with his plain old coffee pot – boring!
This is like my new toy…I just love it! It does make tea too. I swear this machine can make it all LOL!
I love my Tassimo too.. I have the T20 and its the best .. The only thing is that none of the stores in my area carry the t discs so I have to order them online..
I’ve been telling my local stores they need to order TDiscs so I don’t have to go out of town to buy it.
Oh, I would love one of these! I drink more coffee than any person should ever admit to….
Oh me too! I drink a lot…no wonder I am so hyper LOL!
