Surprisingly versatile, small footprint, good selection of brews
My first bean to cup machine and so far so good, it's run in now and works fine. a few improvements would be to provide the first set of maintenance items with the machine such as the grease, descale liquid and bean oil cleaner.
With the iced coffee feature it makes a great machine with plenty of choice. It replaced a Tassimo machine and is only just a little bigger so it doesn't take up a lot of space.
I'd say that it is quite noisy but then it does grind the beans to order and get rid of the grounds, heat and pressurize the water. It's no where near the noise from you local coffee shop but the coffee is just as good and you are able to control the strength to your liking.
