Tassimo has launched an early Black Friday offer that brings its Happy Black + Cadbury + Double Walled Glasses bundle down to £44.99, a saving of £73.78 from its usual £118.77 price. The set includes the Happy Tassimo machine, two double-wall coffee glasses, and 40 drink pods.
What the bundle includes
The Happy Tassimo machine, which normally sells for £79.99 on its own, is a compact, fully automatic gadget that runs on drink capsules. The brand says it is 'all about ease and speed', with one-touch operation that makes coffee and hot chocolates in a few minutes. It is presented as a mess-free alternative to more complex bean-to-cup machines.
Users insert a 'T DISC' into the machine, place a mug underneath the adjustable cup stand, and press the button to start. Its Intellibrew™ technology reads the barcode on each pod to adjust the brewing parameters.
Size and user reviews
Measuring 265 x 175 x 305 mm (H x L x W), the machine is suited to smaller kitchens and can fit in cupboards. One five-star review reads: "We like our new coffee machine and the pods. It doesn’t take up too much room, which is important in our small kitchen." Another reviewer said: "Nice size in my tiny kitchen. Easy to use. Easy to clean and descale. Makes lovely coffee and chocolate."
A third customer wrote: "Bought this, by mistake, to replace my old Tassimo Bosch machine. Turns out, it is better suited to making coffee for the two of us. Less water is wasted with the smaller reservoir, and the coffee produced from the Latte macchiato pods is as good as the old machine. Also, the 'footprint' on the kitchen worktop is much smaller. All in all, the best mistake I have ever made."
Some shoppers noted drawbacks, with one saying: "Water container quite small, power lead very short." Others were more positive, with one review stating: "Great machine. Love the intelligent bit, very clever. The combo of machine and hot chocolate is awesome."
The included glasses
The bundle also includes two Double Wall Coffee Glasses, which have a capacity of 355ml and a highly insulated design. Made from lightweight borosilicate glass, they are dishwasher- and microwave-safe and reportedly cool to the touch on the outside.
Shoppers have praised them, with one saying "Coffee looks very inviting in these glasses" and another noting "Nice size mug and so light." One user remarked: "The shape of the glass tends to make the coffee 'dribble' over the sides," while another said it "Keeps the coffee hotter in the cup, not like normal mugs."
