I have been an avid user of the Senseo for a few years now and until recently had used the available pods and the ECO Pod which works well but was a little more work to clean and needs to be replaced after awhile. When I saw the Coffee Duck and read the reviews I thought that the problem was solved. Rich creamy coffee with an less expensive alternative to the Pods. Much to my dismay the Duck did not live up to its reviews. The coffee was weak, watery and not frothy even after trying several brands and grinds.
I bought three, for home, work and for a friend.
BIG MISTAKE! Step away from the Duck! Use the pods or use the Eco pod!!!

The CoffeeDuck is AMAZING! There are two things you should know...
1) HEAT the Duck before hand to prevent the first "cold" use of the day from leaking.
2) Also use FINELY GROUND coffee in the Duck for the best flavor, almost espresso ground is perfect around #3.

I love this thing. Use it every day. I grind down my pre-ground or beans to espresso fine once every few days and keep a supply in a plastic container. I haven't bought a single pre-made pod since I got it. (Though, I probably will keep some on hand just for convenience and for my boyfriend who can't figure out this duck thing.)
Have a few suggestions:
-- DO use espresso grind or grind down your regular drip grind supply - it makes a huge difference.
-- DO adjust to your own taste and play around with it a bit. I like strong coffee, so I fill it to the top and hit the 8 oz button.
-- Once in a while, DO clean off the part of the senseo top where the water comes out (the silver circle). The Duck top has holes so eventually leaves a fine silt-y layer where the water comes out unlike pods that can't let any grounds through the filter material.
-- *Important* FOLLOW THE DIRECTION that tells you to make sure there are NO CRUMBS ... Read More

This product is great once you get the hang of it. I tried several times but I couldn't get the coffee as stong as the Dark Roast Coffee Pods. I tried adding more coffee and using Starbucks Espresso coffee. But the trick was using fine ground coffee. Once I ground the starbucks espresso coffee even finer the taste was great !!!. Just make sure the coffee is finely ground. Works fantastic though. Must agree you lose most of the foam with this product.

Senseo pods are costly, but the machine sure is handy.
The coffee duck works and is a good alternative, or supplement, to pods. I've tried other filters in my Senseo, this one works best. No complaints. Only time will tell how it holds up with repeated use.
