Works perfectly. Great espresso with crema.
These pods are amazing. I've used pods without foil wrappers but instead have a stainless steel filter. These are superior in everyway. These pods are the same size as a regular Nespresso pod, therefore you get no water leaking around the pod and watering down your espresso. You also get a full shot of espresso (or a standard Nespresso shot)Because they are the standard size, you get a regular filling of coffee grinds. The pods with a stainless steel filter top are smaller so that the pod doesn't damage the machine Therefore you get less coffee grinds per pod. I had to use three of those pods where I normally use two.Additionally, these pods, when closed in the machine, sit firm against the capsule opener and when you press the start button you hear that classic foil "pop" and a nice dark and creamy espresso flows.The scoop is fantastic. It makes it so easy to get coffee grinds into the cup from the bag. No longer is my bulky hands and fingers rubbing the bag or accidentally touching the coffee grinds. One clean scoop motion and your done. You can even level it with the bag as you pull the scoop out.The foil is easy to place and seal. I do like the silicone matt. however, I wish there were little holes in the bottom. After washing the pods I place them into the silicone molds but water tends to collect in the bottom of the mold. I guess I need to dry the pods better.At any rate, if your looking for reusable pods that deliver great taste and crema, these are the ones!!!

Works perfect with our coffee machine
The media could not be loaded. These capsules make it possible to enjoy other coffee brands. The process is easy to get 6 ready touse and refill. We are happy with the product and purchase

Fits as it should but could be better !
These pods are just a bit small, it holds less than a coffee spoon, shorter than the Nespresso pods, holds about 15 % less than the nespresso pods, for a full cup you will need 2 pods not packed, makes a perfect cup of coffee after that, i use them everyday, saves tons of money and flavor is my choice !

Works surprisingly well with no compatibility issues
After reading some of the reviews after placing my order that remarked about compatibility issues even though their machine was listed as compatible I decided to give them a go upon their arrival, although the only preground coffee I had was a can of Chock Full O'Nuts that I had purchased in preparation for testing a few different reusable K-cups. I wasn't really intending to evaluate the quality results so much as whether or not they actually worked to produce the coffee from my Citiz.Not having a real s/s tamper on hand I found the best technique was to place the capsule in the handle turning it into a scoop, then pressing it through the coffee towards the side of the can to fill and 'tamp' the puck, then tamp the coffee a bit more using your fingertip. Wipe off the top surface with your finger and install the foil lid.Be sure to not overtamp and leave a bit of an indentation in the top of the puck to allow the puck to expand, otherwise you will stall your unit or clog the output screen on your machine.I pulled a few 30ml espresso shots and was shocked at the amount of crema created even with using a coffee that was ground too coarsely for espresso. Out of curiosity I tasted it anyway, and found it definitely under-extracted but surprisingly drinkable, not great but better than a number of the lesser known brands of compatible capsules. Now really intrigued, I filled a few more capsules and tamped them a bit more, then pulled them as 90ml lungo shots. Not as much crema as would be created from an espresso grind, but definitely more than I expected from this drip grind. The most shocking aspect of all was that with a drop of creamer and a bit of sugar the coffee was actually quite enjoyable.I've reordered these along with a s/s tamper and silicone pad and am looking forward to giving them a full review using a can of Illy espresso grind for an actual evaluation now that I am confident that they will work with my machine.Edit: The s/s tamper, silicone tamping pad and a can of Illy pre-ground espresso arrived yesterday and I had the opportunity to test them out properly this morning. As expected, they performed admirably. The espresso was smooth and creamy with a full, sweet crema.Resist the temptation to overfill or overtamp your capsules for optimum performance. I f you aren't sure about the grind or amount of coffee you should be using, I highly recommend opening up a few factory capsules that have worked well for you in the past and compare. Keep in mind that the factory capsules are a little bit deeper than the refillable versions and are generally not tamped at all, relying on the initial water infusion to compress the coffee puck.

I loved these pods - until I got my first set of refill replacements
Updated 3 star reviewThe set of 200 stickers that I received after I used up the original stickers did not work well at all. They can’t stay attached during brewing. This is such a disappointment, as I loved the original kit. Original 5 star reviewTo be honest, I wasn't sure if I would use these pods much because they would require too much effort to use. I love the convenience of a single serve espresso machine, but I also want to look for more environmentally friendly pods. I will not use plastic pods.I have been using Peets (cheaper, but not the best flavor) and Nespresso ($$$) pods because they offer recycling programs. While I like that I am not adding plastic to a landfill, I don't know what the real impact is of the plastic bags for shipping, fuel costs to ship, etc.So...that lead me to these wonderful little reusable espresso pods. I can use beans from my favorite roaster and enjoy amazing cappuccinos at home. It really is as simple as grind, scoop and seal. The pods fit perfectly in my Cuisinart machine. The set of 6 pods lasts me 2-3 days and I actually look forward to filling them - the smell of freshly ground beans is always welcome!

Lo recomiendo
La preparación de café es muy sencilla y el sabor es de calidad, en mi cafetera es necesario tener presionada la tapa que sostiene el cartucho para que se tenga fugas de café por la presión, pero de esa forma garantizas la preparación correcta

Absolutely perfect to reduce capsule recycling and waste
I was sceptical initially so I only bought the single pack for my husband for Father's Day, just to see if it worked. I was worried about the capsules fitting in the machine and whether it would clog up or the stickers would actually stick etc. However, I definitely didn't need to worry. It was so easy to set up and hubby was very happy with strength of coffee (some reviews stated the coffee came through much weaker). I bought strength 5 Taylors coffee and it all works perfectly and strength is perfect vs the Nespresso purple pods my husband usually buys. Overall we will save money vs the usual pods and more importantly save on the ever growing waste and need for recycling that the Nespresso pods warrants. I am so pleased that I have since upgraded to the larger pack with more capsules, stickers and accessories.

Sustainable Swap for Single-use Pods
I was gifted a Nesspresso machine and felt criminal using single-use pods. Then I discovered this set. It does take a bit of effort in the beginning, but now filling the pods has become part of my morning ritual. In fact, I enjoy the process so much, my husband and I fight over who gets to fill the pods.The resulting coffee strength is mild. My friends prefer to use 2 of these pods in each cup. I prefer my coffee mild, so it works for me.

Loved it
It takes trial and error to find the best way to prepare it. However, it works very well and saves money. It fits my DeLonghi citiz smoothly.
