Too late to cancel.
Ordered 2 of these because Amazon listing says they are K cups
Evidently they fit in a proprietary machine only so are trash to me.
Great
I’m not sure why you made a purchase here based on [erroneous] information you found on a different site (and yes, I’m aware of the Woot-Amazon ownership; the point being, all of the information on THIS listing is correct.)
More specifically, the listing TELLS YOU that it’s for the Dolce Gusto system right in the item title (and several times elsewhere throughout the listing.) It SHOWS YOU images of the Dolce Gusto pods, which you can obviously verify aren’t K-cups. Finally, one of the images SPECIFICALLY STATES, “CAPSULES for NESCAFE Dolce Gusto MACHINES”, both SHOWING and TELLING you that these are, in fact, not K-cups. Why did you make this so difficult?!?
Doesn’t say anything about a specific machine in listing
I didn’t see the image you provided when looking before either skipped it or, more likely because that’s what woot does, it was added after.
Also I have never heard of this machine and even if noted it’s for a specific machine, I would still investigate what the capsule is for compatibility so I went to the amazon listing for this exact item as woot always points out it’s taken from the Amazon listing they only have the information given from the Amazon listing
The Amazon listing specities it’s a K cup so it would then be presumed ITS A DAMN K CUP
So purchased for the couple k cup machines I have that I don’t use personally as the result tastes like garbage.
You do know that there will be change records noted if indeed something was added after the listing, right?
I agree with atomizer above. The very aspect that the title says Nescafe Dolce Gusto should have been a huge indicator of what it’s designed for. Besides the common K-cup and the Dolce Gusto here, these are some of the other coffee systems out there:
- Ese
- Espresso Point
- Flavia
- iperEspresso
- L’or Barista
- Nespresso (original)
- Nespresso Vertuoline
- Senseo
- Tassimo
- Verismo

They look kinda K-cuppish…
I’d try one & see if it fits…
Or dump them into a reusable K-cup…
Capsules are pretty much all different:
Do All Coffee Pods Fit All Machines?
No, unfortunately, there is no universal coffee pod or coffee pod machine – such is the nature of the free market.

What kind of hammer?
It absolutely states a specific machine (“Dolce Gusto”) multiple times in the product title, description, and photos: Dolce Gusto - Wikipedia. It wouldn’t surprise me if you genuinely weren’t aware of it, but it’s been around for 20 years, so you’ve had time to learn!
The image I provided has been there the whole time, along with several others that either tell or show you that this is not a Keurig K-cup listing.
And again, the Woot listing doesn’t specifically link to any Amazon listing in particular, so you went out of your way to find one that appeared to be for the same item (and to be very clear, there are many different listings for the same type of product, like this, on Amazon,) and then made a purchasing decision based on erroneous information you found elsewhere; information that was NOT in the Woot listing. This would be akin to researching a product on, say, eBay, and blaming the actual seller of the product you purchased for incorrect information on someone else’s eBay listing. If only you’d spent as much time educating yourself on the Dolce Gusto system as you did finding unrelated Amazon listings!
Now all I have to add is that I, too, despise Keurig/K-cups, which is why I use these Dolce Gusto pods, which are much better. The only trouble may be in finding a machine; I use the Kotlie EM-308A/B.
THE listing
Shows it is a k cup
Woot repeatedly state information from their sales is to be found on Amazon’s listing
Saying Dolce Gusto is two Italian words that do not remotely immediately point to a kid of coffee pod.
As idiotic as saying Dolce Vita obiously means a specific brand of TV
Everything you spew is garbage
In any single serve pod the defacto is keurig K cup
What does that mean
It means many if not most single serve pods do not specify a machine at all anwhere on the packaging and they are k cups.
And, again, THE LISTING STATES IT IS A K CUP
THES SINGLE LISITNG ON AMAZON THESE ARE PULLED FROM
Christ
I think we’ve beat this horse enough.
On to something else, pls.
