 I'M SO HAPPY I BOUGHT THIS UNIT !! January 4, 2006

I almost bought a Tassimo, but glad I read the reviews, which is what caused me to look into this unit instead. I read all it's reviews and couldnt find anyone who had a bad experience with it. ONE NOTE...... the TRAVEL MUG that comes included in the MEADLY PACK DOES FIT. You have to read the instruction manual which most people dont. It specifically says on PAGE 9, and I quote " THE DRIP TRAY CAN ALSO BE REMOVED TO ACCOMMODATE YOUR TRAVEL MUG". Reading ALL of the isntruction booklet is highly recommended.
Anyway, the best part of this machine is that it accepts any size mug or cup by way of it's sliding head adjustment. It slides down covering your container opening, so there is absolutely no splash out as the beverage is dispensed directly into your container.
I love the removable water reservoir, which will holds 32 oz of water...or about (6) 7oz cups of your favorite brew.
You can use or not use the optional water filter. Your choice.
The BEST part of this unit is it's simplicity. Slide your selected beverage packet into the holder, close the lid, push a button and PRESTO, in 30 seconds you have a wonderful fresh brewed drink, then open the head and dispose of the empty packet. I can go from making a cup of Columbian Coffee, to Lemon Calm tea and then make a cup of Hot Chocolate Cappuccino and not have to "clean" out anything. There is no way to transfer flavors from one brew to the next. No drippy pods to fool with, no filters to trap flavors, no splash back, no post beverage dripping.
The Flavia Fusion is actually better than their SB100. Like the others said, you cant brew the two packets which makes their Cappuccinos and other "speciality" drinks, like Chai Latte, Milky Way Chococcino. Pumpkin Pie Latte, Irish Cream Mochaccino, Milky Way Latte and a fabulous Chococcino.
The unit is smaller than the Tassimo and some others, but you'll still need some counter space. But, It's well worth it.
The Maximum drink volume the packet can make is up to 7 oz.....which to some may look small. I've found that I can immediately "re-use" the same packet for a second brew cycle to double the volume of the coffee and tea drinks.
Flavia has 30 different beverages available, and some can be used together to create speciality drinks. They are also in the process of creating more products. Flavia is a division of Mars Inc.....the same people who make Milky Ways, Smickers, M&M's and other confections. I wonder if they'll come up with a Snickers Latte??? in the future.
As my Title says, I'm so happy I bought this unit. It's a tea, coffee, hot chocolate, latte, espresso cappuccino machine all rolled into one, WITH NO MESSY CLEAN UP of the unit or your counter inbetween drinks. Just pop a new packet in and you're good to go.
I hope Amazon.com will look into selling the drink packets.
For someone who likes variety, and doesnt want to have a half dozen machines laying around......take a hard look at the Flavia Fusion. You wont be disappointed.
UPDATE.......... FLAVIA PACKETS..........
If you go to bfcoffee.com and email them about Flavia coffee's and teas, they will send you back their current price list. They will sell to individuals, but the minimum order is a "case" (which is 100 packets of Coffee, 72 packets of Cocoa or 140 packets of Tea)...but the good news is they do offer a VARIETY CASE, which allows you to mix and match flavors to make a case of Coffee's or a case of Teas.
I know a case sound like a lot, but once you get hooked on Flavia's ease of use, you'll find you'll have that late evening cup of cocoa, decaf coffee or tea, or a second cup of Java in the morning. Prices per case start around $34.50 for the Coffee's and $36.60 up to 58.50 for the teas. The cocoa is going for $29.95 a case. So, between Flavia's web site and this vendor, and ebay, you should have no problems finding replacement packets.

Flavia machine still going strong. I use it at least 2-3 times a day. Have already had to re-order packets, like the Chai Tea, Cocoa, Froth packet and Breakfast Blend coffee. BFCOFFEE.COM is the best place for prices anywhere....even better than Flavia's own site. I'm sipping a cup of Columbia coffee right now. Americans dont usually like a "strong" cup of coffee, so after the unit brews the packet the first time, I just re-push the light and let it brew again in the same mug. It comes out just the right strength for me. I would buy this unit again, without a second thought. It's that good.

Thought you might like to see my unit and how I store my Flavia Packets...so look for my 2 photos under " customer photos" just below Amazon's picture of the Falvia Machine.
Simply the easiest one-cup coffee maker on the market! October 27, 2005

As the only person that drinks coffee in our home, I have used a one-cup coffee maker for over 20 years. I have tried them all, most recently the pod ones, but this one beats them all. It is so simple and quick. All you do is load a packet, hit a button, and voila, coffee that is comparable, if not better than that sold at coffee houses. In addition, the Fusion offers options to just coffee in the way of Tea, Hot Cocoa, and other "wellness" drinks.
The only drawback is that you are limited to puchasing the coffee packs from Flavia as there are no generic options available. None the less, their selection is superb and their prices are reasonable (about 40 cents per cup). I'm hooked.
Finally! November 15, 2005

I'm a single, on-the-go, coffee drinker whos career requires long hours and not much free time. I like quality so I'm picky about what I drink. I prefer that my coffee beverages are strong and like to have them at home, on the road, in the office, after dinner, etc. I also like a variety of drink types, which is just one of the reasons why I love the Flavia Fusion drinks station! Not only can I make a good, strong cup of coffee, I can also make a cappuccino, coffee with chocolate, tea and many other varieties of hot or cold drinks quickly, easily and neatly. The filterpacks that come with the system make it super easy to create the variety I enjoy. Finally! Now I can make a great drink right from my home -and I can vary my drink choice with the push of a button. Plus, when I have guests over, they can make the drink of their choice quickly and easily as well. This would make a great Christmas gift!
The best thing since my TiVo! November 19, 2005

I love the Flavia! It is less expensive than the other one cup brewers and the coffee tastes better. They have a great variety of coffee from mild to strong. The strengths are numbered to help determine what flavor to order. The tea and hot chocolate are great too.
I can have a fresh cup of coffee in a few seconds- No more of the "sitting in the coffee pot too long" taste. 5 stars!
I love this machine! January 20, 2006

This is the neatest little machine! I bought it through Myflavia.com, and the total price was 119.95. This included a large sample box of beverages, a go-cup, and 2nd day air delivery. Not bad!
At first I bought a Senseo, and returned it after the first cup of coffee - ack! The Senseo could brew only coffee, and a very limited number of options at that.
With the Flavia Fusion, I have tried the teas, coffees (*very* good!), chocolate, lattes, and the chai tea as well. Everything is very delicious, very hot, and so easy and FAST. The machine does make noise, but not near as loud as the Senseo was. I wouldn't even consider it noisy. And one of the biggest bonuses I found is the lack of cleaning - it virtually has NO cleaning to it!!
I have to make a comment about the hot cocoa feature. It is amazing! NO clumpy chocolate, no mess, no powdered cocoa sticking to the sides or bottom of the cup. Just wonderful creamy hot chocolate. My children love it.
It DOES do the two-packet drinks, which is for the lattes, cappucinos, etc. I think one of the other Flavia machines does not. But the Fusion does.
I use this machine at least once a day, sometimes more. I love the versatility, the lack of mess, and the many beverage options. I've had it for a month, and I think I've already gotten my money's worth!
I would suggest reading all of the instructions before using, even though it is very simple to use (open door, insert packet, close door, push button), just to ensure you get the best use of your machine.
I would not hesitate to buy this machine all over again. With all the options out there, this one is by far above all the others.
