These are one of our daily pods. Nothing spectacular. Just decent, cheap coffee.
Critically they are not at all bad like some others we have tried (and some costing a lot more!), hence our daily use. Have some other brands (cost a lot more) for when we want a REALLY tasty espresso.
We also enjoy the flavored pods, even black (no cream/milk), not overpowering or artificially tasting.
These are hands down the worst Nespresso pods I have ever tried. Avoid. I would pay not to receive them.
I came to say something similar and agree with you. DO-NOT-BUY-THESE! I bought when they were still in the plastic capsule, but they were not worth even drinking. I gave them away to a friend who was ok with crappy coffee. Not even for free do I want these.

Agree. I've had the plastic and the aluminum ones and would not buy either again. Best value for me has been L'Or. I bought about 300 of them when they were cheap and am coming to the end of my stash. Occasionally I'll grab Peets if there's a deal but those don't seem to happen often. I've only bought the real Nespresso pods twice and both times they were amazing but out of the realm or reasonable for daily drinking, cost-wise.

I'll have to give the L'Or a go, I think I got a small pack once from Marshalls and they were decent. I will sometimes grab Peets, or Starbucks if the price is right, decent, but still not on Nespresso level but worthy enough to drink.
I mostly buy Nespresso, but I'm not a daily drinker, I drink maybe 2-3 times a week. Sometimes more, sometimes less. When Nespresso does the 2 free sleeves on 8 sleeves I'll normally grab some.

I actually did not like L'or at all. Really bitter and awful taste. I think Amazon brand aluminum pods is the best in the worst category. For me: Nespresso > Starbucks > Peet's and the rest I would probably don't give a try anymore. Amazon one I ordered recently and I did not hated it: Amazon Fresh brand nespresso compatible pods.

Did you try the equine line? I liked mine pretty well, but wondering if there's a better option.

Came to say the same. Amazon Fresh makes affordable aluminum pods that are both reasonably priced and taste good for a latte. They aren't as good as Nespresso, Peet's or Starbucks. But I think they are better than the Williams Sonoma pods I just finished off. For a baseline, I didn't like L'or brand.

The price is low, you can't expect as high quality as Nespresso, but it actually tastes not bad

I'll be buying some on this deal
Has anyone had some experience w/ the flavors?

They're the worst and they actually started ruining my nespresso machine by getting stuck….
