Makes great tasting drinks
I have had this a while now, and it took me some getting used to because I had never used this sort of coffee maker before. I’ve gotten the hang of it, and it IS so much better tasting than my regular coffee or the crap from my pod machine. It does take time to learn the ins and outs, but it’s worth it. At the end of the day, it’s easier to use than it looks. It’s a well-made machine and it’s very easy to keep clean and maintain. It is very nice having this level of cappuccino in my own kitchen, and I can have as much as I want and save a lot of money from buying it on the outside. This will pay for itself in a matter of months. A nice quality machine, and you are getting what you pay for.

High tech coffee machine
The media could not be loaded.
I’m not much of a coffee snob and have been happy with my Kuerig or my ninja. I’m a basic B when it comes to coffee. However, this machine is truly amazing and you will never need to go to Starbucks again… in fact, I wonder if they use similar machines there bc this is so fancy and high tech.Ok the directions suck. They basically talk about the water filter. Ummm ok. Had to figure out how to use this bad boy on my own through trial and error. Basically, you fill it with filtered water, pour some high quality beans in it and spend a little time experimenting with it. It is very noisy and makes several loud sounds which can be alarming, but they are all normal.Some tips I have learned along the way… When you first press power, it will clean itself and spit out some water and steam. So don’t put your mug under there until it is done spewing. Then place your mug under there and pick which coffee drink you would like. My go to is the cappuccino… the best part about this is that you pull the lever down and it automatically heats up and foams up your milk and then automatically adds the espresso after. I like my milk hot so I use the milk button all the way to the right to preheat the milk, and then do the cappuccino button to heat it a little more.When you first use the machine, you have to do a few cups of coffee that you will discard. I dumped out about 3 or 4 cups and was good to go. Also, there are lights on the top right that will indicate when your water is low and when you need to empty the coffee grinds.This thing is pretty self explanatory once you give yourself a good hour to play around with it. I wish the instructions were better, but I read a few people’s reviews on the this page and it really helped me figure out how to operate it. .The only downside to the machine is that I drink way too much coffee now! If you are really into coffee, you will love this thing!

A bit noisy, but well worth it
Treated ourselves to this little gem for our Christmas present, so frustrated with getting a weak cup of coffee, and this little darling performs. So easy to use, I was practicing with foaming this morning, so easy and the foam lasted for ages, did a Mocha for my husband and then topped it with foam….very nice. You really get the full flavor of the coffee from the fresh grinder. Using Peteʻs French Roast beans. I am now a coffee snob. Life is too short for a bad cup of coffee. Delivered to me by Amazon, fast and efficient….happy happy happy. Two months later we still love it, but it requires a lot of cleaning, I just de scaled it a month ago and I need to do it again, because its small it need to be emptied (inside drip tray and coffee grind container) often. The one thing I donʻt like is that it cleans the nozzles every time it makes a coffee, so you have to dump out the rinse water from your cup if you put it under, of else you get a diluted coffee…Oh well…German engineering….very clean.

Great coffee
Machine is great. Easy to set up and easy to use. Easy to clean.So far we’re very happy with machine. Coffee taste great and is strong like I like it.The grinder is loud but that’s fine because coffee is good.The only drawback is the controls are so sensitive that wiping off display caused it to turn on. I can live with that.

No gimmicks. Just good coffee.
I bought this machine after researching everything from half this price to 3xs the price. This one got the best reviews, and was within the price point we were aiming for. It’s a big leap for us, compared to our coffee pod machine, and entry level espresso machine. After about 3 weeks of regular use, it’s proven itself so farPros:+ it makes good espresso-based drinks – espresso, cappuccino, and machiatto. It’s so good enough that you will taste a difference from coffee pods, or preground drip brewers. It’s not “like” espresso it IS espresso with the coffee pucks, 9 bars of pressure, and everything.+ it’s easy to use and fairly intuitive.+ you can adjust grind size, strength, amount, or even do cold brew.+ it has a self cleaning function that rinses the pipes and hoses everytime it’s turned on or off.+ besides coffee drinks you can also froth milk. It can handle about 3ozs of milk at a time (it swells to about 7ozs). This way you can use the milk froth option to preheat and prep a larger milk drink (say 6-9ozs of milk), stir a bit, then press machiatto or cappuccino and it will add more heat and froth producing a 14-20oz drink.+ the milk frothing wand is easy to clean, it’s attached with magnets so it pops on and off without hassle.+ you’re not paying for any dumb gimmicks or wasted features like a smart phone app, spinning the coffee, or a complicated screen (ie, another thing that can break). The cost goes into making this an easy to use machine that produces great coffee.* it can spoil you if you’re used to preground coffee, pods, or the labor of manual espresso machines. Coffee geeks will still want to enjoy the manual brewing process of chemex, aeropress, rok, flair, kalita, etc. But even for the enthusiasts and purists, sometimes you just want good coffee brewing for you while you’re tidying the kitchen, doing the dishes, or reading the news from a cuneaform scroll (like need is supposed to be read).Cons:- you might think 20 oz hot espresso drinks are normal, so you may be disappointed when this does an ACTUAL normal portion for single-serve coffee drinks (1.5-3oz espresso, 5-7oz Americano called “coffee”). You may have to do 2 or 3 coffee cycles to fill your Stanley cup before yoga class.- it’s not magic, so it doesn’t do ALL it’s own cleaning even if it has a pretty darn good auto-cleaning function.- it can’t fit 16 oz yeti-style tall tumblers. I guess I’ll just have to use short style 16oz tumblers and mugs instead. Oh well.- the water tank is in the back left. It’s awkward to lift out. But this isn’t a real problem since you can just lift the lid and pour directly into it from a cup or pitcher.- it’s noisy, about as noisy as you would expect a coffee grinder to be.- the setup instructions aren’t clear about how to set the water filter (it has 3 settings but there’s no mention of what the 1,2, or 3 signify) or how to use the water softness test. By the time I figured it out, I’d ruined the one test strip that’s included.- it doesn’t have a “hot water” function. That’s probably my only real gripe about the functionality of the machine since everything else is negligible. It would be nice to just squirt some hot water for a cup of tea, or to top off an Americano.Overall, I’m very pleased. I’ve used it at least once a day since we’ve had it. Not one bad cup of coffee yet.

Good quality coffee machine, super easy to clean
I’ve had the machine for four months now and LOVE it; really happy with my decision. It is not perfect but it’s quite close. Here are the pros and cons:PROS:+ Coffee tastes great+ Really easy to maintain. For example, the automatic milk wand comes off with a magnet, so after it’s done its job, you just take it off and rinse it. Super easy—no need to clean a milk tank or pipes because there aren’t any!+ Water tank capacity is good. Once you fill the tank, it lasts 2–3 days—no need to add water after just a few cups.+ Great value for money. No need to pay thousands. I had a fancy Italian machine before, and the coffee tastes the same, but this one is much easier to clean.+ The way the milk system works (you add milk to the cup, and the wand automatically turns it into a cappuccino or latte by whipping it and then adding coffee) makes it easy to control the amount of milk, depending on whether you want a stronger or weaker coffee. No need to dig through menus to adjust settings.+ It’s a pretty slim, compact little machine that doesn’t require a ton of counter space.+ For what it is, the grinder loudness is reasonable. Still loud but not unbearable.CONS:- Need to warm up the coffee cup in the microwave first (about 30 seconds), otherwise the coffee won’t be hot enough.- Doesn’t make hot water.
