Of all the many coffee machines I have owned or used, this one is head and shoulders above the rest. Easy to use, easy to clean & maintain, you get a superb cup of coffee every time with one push of the button.

This can sometimes be heavily discounted, which makes it worth buying. I have had mine for well over a year now and it has produced many fine cups of coffee. One thing I didnt realise – you can only process cappucino with it. It doesnt have a separate steam wand, and doesnt make a latte at all (which is a shame)
The cappucino it makes is v. good, but I tend to use it just to make an espresso which I then add milk and boiling water to so I can have an American long coffee. A very clean machine to use and easy to maintain. But takes quite a time to heat up, turn off etc.

I bought this coffee machine several months ago when my old one finally died. As a coffee drinker I am someone who likes one, maybe two cups every day but it has to be good coffee. Thankfully this machine answers my caffeinated prayers and delivers exactly that.
The machine is very well designed and put together in such a way that everything is accessible from the front; especially the water tank. In other machines i have owned the tank was at the back and so one needs to pull out the entire machine to refill. Panels open up at the top to either fill with coffee beans, or add some pre-ground coffee. Then all that is needed is to switch the machine on, wait for it to warm up (20 seconds of so) then press the button for coffee. i found that I can have a perfect expresso from switching on to it being poured in around 30 seconds – very important when rushing to work in the morning.
All in all, whilst this machine is expensive but it has never failed to make a perfect cup which rich crema and i feel that it is worth every penny
