A letdown compared to original

We have a pixie original machine, which I adore. Purchased this for a pied-a-terre we maintain in another city thinking that it would be convenient to have the "full cup option." Unfortunately, I find the full cup options (both Nespresso and Starbucks) to be almost undrinkable, thin and metallic. The smaller espresso options are not awful, but don't have the same richness of the oringinals, especially disappointing given that the cartridges are significantly more expensive. If we need another machine will definitely go back to the original version.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have a bean to cup machines for 4 years now, with recent kitchen reno, we were looking for something more compact, yet still can make delicious coffee. The Nespresso fits all of our criteria.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Water was leaking out of the bottom of the tank, it looks like the seal/valve isn't holding. I twisted the tank a bit and it seems to be holding up, but concerning to have a puddle of water on my countertop the first week or so of use.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Oh my god I got this machine just before I moved apartments, made it that much more tolerable. As an ex- Starbucks barista, this machine is better than I had hoped! Recommend 15/10!!!
