There are plenty of drip machines that mimic a pour over already, is this one any different?
I use the Cuisinart PourPrecision Pour Over and am very pleased with the taste. I got it on sale at the Williams Sonoma outlet mall in Vero Beach just before they shut down last year - I paid 60 bucks for it on clearance. I would pay 3x that, easily. The coffee is so smooth.

I have a Braun MultiServe right now. Used to have an OXO Barista Brain. Both are great drip coffee makers.
For the price of this xBloom thing you could buy either a Braun, OXO, Cuisinart, Technivoorm, Bonavita drip machine, a Baratza grinder, and a Hario v60/digital scale/gooseneck kettle plus have money left over for good quality beans.
This xBloom looks neat, but not particularly useful and prohibitively expensive. Almost $800 to get one cup of coffee and it requires their own pods. Nah. Also, can the grinder be accessed? How do you clean or service the burrs?
