I did the same thing last year I think it was.... Mine is a Keurig and is a bit bigger than your machine, but same idea...so far there has not really been a downside.
I was a bit concerned about resale and such, but I figured I could probably come up with a nice looking solution to fill the hole when the time comes. Hopefully there won't be too much damage at the screw site....
One thing I did, was to use a good sealant when I put the screw in. I figure there's a really good chance for water spills to seep under it from time to time, and if it gets into the particle board core under the laminate it would probably swell
