I'm assuming this will be cheaper to run with whole beans, over paying for the individual pods?

It has required some maintenance - the grinder did jam up. I had to remove it and unjam it. Was able to clear it by attaching a power drill to the exposed end to turn it and break up the gunk for about 20 seconds. Worked like a charm after that.
Very minimal maintenance; use fresh coffee (max 2-3 months old) and don't use dark roast. Medium/dark or a blend of medium and dark. Too much dark will clog the grinder.
We use it every day; my wife makes coffee with it and I do some espresso shots and some random milk drinks for myself and friends. All-in it's probably made over 2,000 cups of coffee/espresso and all I've done is rinse/clean it and apply the grease they provide based on the video every year or so. Filters get replaced every 6 months and I use the generic ones.
If you don't drink multiple pots of coffee a day this is a great option. If you want a lot of coffee in the morning for multiple people, it does take some time, so it may not be the best option.
The espresso quality is better than my semi auto Breville Barista. Espresso from 3200 is better and more consistent than Breville.
