Great price, it looks far more expensive than it was. Really easy to use (once you've read the instructions instead of just winging it). It brews really quickly and under good pressure. It is simple to take apart to clean. The milk frother works really well. I haven't found a negative about the machine yet. I love it and will probably never sleep ever again. 😁

It is very east to use and clean, but it is very sensitive to the amount of coffee you put in, too much and it just drips. I bought this too replace a leaky De Longi machine and it is not as good, I bought based on a review I read in Which magazine and it proves that you can't go by reviews alone! It can make a nice coffee and is ready to use very quickly after being turned on.

Most of my friends have "pod" coffee makers, and most don't rate them very highly so I went for a traditional machine to use with freshly ground coffee. The resulting drinks are great, very much like a Costa or Starbucks etc. The secret is freshly ground coffee although acceptable results can be achieved with cheap pre-ground coffee. The downside is that you'll need to clean out the coffee grinds after each use, but that's how real espresso is made so it's part of the process. If you look on YouTube there are quite a few videos on how to make the perfect espresso. We're basically looking for a nice creamy "crema" head which this produces, even with cheap Aldi coffee so no complaints there. My wife has supposedly bought it as a Christmas present for me and want to wrap it up... but I keep making excuses to keep using it! I've only had it a couple of weeks so can't comment on reliability but overall I think it's great and well worth the money.Read full review

Very basic, and all the better for it. It only does two things: brew coffee and froth milk. There's no automatic timer; the function continues until you return the selector to the middle position. This means that you can alter the coffee dose and brew time to suit the coffee and your taste. I can't comment on the milk frother; I drink my coffee black! Having spent many months researching espresso machines and not wanting to spend the earth I feared that I had left it too late to get hold of one of these little machines, but eBay came to the rescue and I'm delighted with it. I used to drink Americanos but I've been converted to double espressos by this machine! I have no reservations in recommending it.

It's highly rated by which, and lives up to the review. Even takes ESE coffee pods, the pods that look like tea bags. Run about 30cc of expresso from the single filter then turn the flow off. 60cc from the double. Good coffee ground to correct grain size and not tamped down too much gives a great brew. Steamer works well, lovely texture to milk for a latte, or froth for cappachino. Read and follow the instructions for great coffee.
