Live and breath aldi – I work at aldi and shop at aldi, out of all the coffee machines I've had returned it was generally because people where forcing down the handle and sometimes the pods get stuck or it's full. I havent had an issue with mine I love it, aldi has been talking about getting in tea and hot chocolate pods for all of those non coffee drinkers. Until then officeworks sells hot chocolate map pods that apparently fit in our coffee machines but they are a little bit more expensive. Aldi has a great refund policy and staff are always happy to help if you have any questions just pop into your local store and ask. Inexpensive And easy
I love a good coffee, and Iam very, very fussy about what type of coffee I have. Yesterday, I decided to but an Expressi, to my surprise the store I went to had sold out, deciding to try another and bought one.
Well, where do I start? Very simple to use and clean, water boils very hot each time, nice and slim so it doesn't take alot of room on my bench. I found the pods are very easy to insert and out of one pod, Iam able to use twice.
As for the flavour, well to be honest I have tried alot worse by going to a cafe. The Milano which is strength 10 is quite bitter and does have a slight burn't flavour. The Reggio, no 9, is more suttle, yet missing that real pure coffee flavour as for the rest I doubt they would be any good. So would I recommend this product? Yes!!! If I wanted a coffee machine that's easy to clean, use, and doesn't use up alot of room and looks quite stylish, in a cheaps way, price can't complain.
I have a expresso machine also but the cleaning involved is annoying, it's heavy and larger, ok, sylish yes absolutely, but at times I guess I can settle for second best, especially in a hurry. So, to sum up, I don't regret buying the Expressi, I do buy alot of products from Aldi and haven't returned anything I have bought.
With the Expressi pods, I decided to try the coffee pods that are being sold at target, and yes the flavour is better than the one's at Aldi and you can use them on the Aldi Expressi, I would rather buy the pods at Target and there you can also buy choclate pods, which my son luv's.
Just like to add Aldi does have a very good return policy!
Anampereira - can you use the pods (just the shell) to put in good ground coffee?? I haven't seen it in action yet so I'm not sure if that's a silly question hehe sounds good though! I'll be buying one as soon as it comes back in to the stores :)

I finally convinced my husband give up his dripilator after many years. It was certainly worth it the coffee the machine produces is as good as any barista. The range of pods will suit anyone and with the introduction of chai and chocolate pods the skies the limit!
