This is a review for the 1.0 crown pod. I was hoping to be pleased with these pods but pod life is awful and after a few refills the top cap filling system ends with the cap breaking. This happened with the included pod with the crown system and the two replacement pods purchased.
I'll stick with the caliburn and koko

Moved from the Caliburn to this Crown Pod and until recently, been top notch. User error is not an issue here, nor just bad luck or a bad batch - just google these problems. Some design change or materials change now means the clips on the mouthpiece on even brand new pods snap when removing to fill, and I mean straight out the pack! If the tip wont clip it's useless. As well as the clips snapping, most of the time now the pod iteself wants to pop out the mod! It just pops back up when it used to clip in. I had been starting to use a piece of paper to add some extra friction so the pod stayed in, but after one pod emptying into the mod and 2 brand new (expensive) pod tips snapping straight out the pack, I think I'm through with this. I have 2 of these and the problem is the pod. Such a shame because for 6 months it was the best pod out there.

These work well for one day and then after this point the flavour is extremely muted. Out of 4 pods I have not managed longer than 3 days on each one.
Its a shame as the flavour and adjustable airflow is great but at £8 for 2 pods, you would expect them to last longer. I prefer the caliburn over this.
