Does this machine comes with sample pods?

Yes a sample set of pods comes with the system (one of every flavor). I also recommend looking up HiLine Coffee for inexpensive pods that work with this system.

It does have a pod filter basket, but I thought the diameter was a bit small for ESE pods. If you watch the "official" Cuisinart video, you will see that the pod overhangs the basket. I suppose it would brew, but never used the pods when I had the machine.https://youtu.be/FCWZ7z3NHHs?t=242

It came with a sampler pack. Don't recall how many since I went through them rather quick

It does not come with the pods to load your own coffee. You must purchase them separately. The Keurig pods that you purchase in the store would be too big for this machine. My guess is that Nespresso is keeping their corner of the market outside of competition. This means that you have to reorder from Nespresso whenever you are running low on pre-made pods. Their deliveries are incredibly fast.

I do believe you have to purchase the illy espresso pods which are around 14 bucks. It may come with a few but I suggest buying a box of them to go along. I hope that was helpful:)

Yes, it comes with a few pods, about 10 assorted ones as I recall. There is a special offer for a welcome pack of coffee pods that can be ordered online.

Hello,That's correct. This coffee maker uses K-fee pods. Thanks for asking.Leon

Ours machine came with 10 or so pods of assorted types of coffee. We additionally bought 3 roll your own pods so we could use our own coffee. We suspect that the grind for the nespresso pods is much finer that we can grind with our machine and so our espresso isn't as rich and creamy as with the store bought pods. The problem with the store bought pods is they are expensive. We typically drink two cups each in the AM and one cup in the afternoon so we would need 6 pods per day which would cost $6 per day. That is over our budget. Plus you can't just buy the pods everywhere. You must order them on-line or find a store which sells the machines which is difficult to locate.

I don't believe so. I haven't bought any. The pods look like they are different sizes. This is the primary reason I'm sending mine back to amazon to have them sell mine for me.

Only the Starbucks pods. When you price everything out it cost as much or more to use this machine as it does to just go to Starbucks.

Not entirely sure of the question, but only pods can be used in the machine. I have seen one refillable pod; have not tried them because I'm afraid they may damage machine.

The nespresso comes with a small sampler pack. I don't remember how many, but I want to say 6-8

You can play samples off of it yes, but it does not have a built-in sampler!

Yes it does. We are completely thrilled with it. The pods are a little harder to find than the Kuerig "K-cups", but we just ordered ours through Amazon. They offer tons of different brands/types/flavors....just watch the shipping. Some of the suppliers are pretty pricey on shipping.

Not the particular one I have, it uses only the pods (which makes things a lot easier!)

Thank you for the advice! I've tested 2 of the included samples using 9-10oz and using the pulse button and it's not to bad... like I said I'm pretty bland when it comes to my coffee :) I bet a 12gram pod and maybe using pulse will be perfect! There aren't any reusable pods yet for this machine that would let me use my own ground coffee are there?

I ordered a B70 also but got a K75 which I think is a newer model. However, the new models seem not to come with sample coffee; however, I did get not only the three pager, but also a thick instruction book and a book of product offers.
