FUN! FUN! FUN!
This simple and so childish game is just so addicting and super cute! You are a cute green dragon who has to shoot bubbles with his gun before they all drop down from the ceiling "a la tetris".... very colorful and very fun... if you're into game like Katamari Damancy" then this nearly vintage game is a must for you! Two thumbs up!

Krups Espremio OK machine for first timers....
9 of 9 found this helpful This was the very first espresso machine I bought after deciding to upgrade from a mocha machine. All in all a good "starter" machine for new couples, new home-owners or college students.
Pros:
This machine is lightweight and is easy to use. Just fill the side tank, add coffee with the spoon provided, let it reach temperature and then the dial. Easy as 1,2,3! Large capacity "water catcher" grill on the bottom".
Cons:
The very first thing to break after just a few weeks was the little "handle" on the coffee holder, which is supposed to help you empty the used grains easily. it is ver flimsy so not exactly a great selling point.
The milk frother got a hole in it after about 5 months so that was the end of cappuccinos... again cheap materials were used to make this machine, so they do not last. After 1.8 years the dial broke... at first it became hard to turn and then it simply broke... this happened because the continual turning of the dial wore out the grooves on the inside until they were almost smooth. Not a very cleaver design at all!
The coffee itself was quite watery so you really have to put as much coffee as you can fit in order to get a decent espresso.
All in all it's an OK machine but should not be purchased with the expectation that it will last long!

Fantastic Machine
5 of 5 found this helpful Wonderful coffee and a great addition to my kitchen decor as well! well worth the original retail price! Luca Trazzi has done a fantastic job with this machine and ti produces a perfect cream with every cup of espresso! Illy brand coffee is a MUST for this machine in order to do ti real justice.
