First, happy New Year! It’s 2025, we made it! The pods came exactly as pictured and works perfectly with my Bruvi machine. Very easy to use! Having 2 is nice because we don’t have to wait on one person to empty and clean the one already in use. These also give me more local ground coffee options when pods aren’t affordable/easily accessible online. Looking forward to Bruvi adding more flavored quality coffee/espresso brands and appreciate the thoughtfulness of giving us 2 re-usable pods for $35. Even the filters are priced well and you get a bang for your buck! Overall, I really enjoy my Bruvi machine and the coffee options, I’m just a flavored coffee girl drinker and prefer more flavor options. Very satisfied with my purchase and plan on getting the Bruvi frother soon! - Sarinthia
