 Wouldnt recommend October 1, 2008
Ms. L. Woodward (UK)
The cup/s vibrate when the machine is working so you have to hold the cup while it operates. You have to wait 30 minutes for the machine to warm up - or - make phantom cups of coffee...the operating manual is terrible t follow...the coffee is okay if you can be bothered with the hastle..other machines that friends have take minutes to warm up. And the noise is deafening from the pump. Wouldnt advise buying.
 A great first machine - Tips for those who are unsure August 6, 2008

For all of you who are unsure if this is a suitable machine and have read the negative reviews posted here let me assure you that this is a GREAT starting machine.
Having read all the negative reports I can safely say that their issues can all be avoided by, like all tools, learning how to use it properly.
It makes great coffee in about 5 minutes. Yes the machine's heat up mechanism takes 30 minutes but my making a 'blank' coffeeless shot (or two) first this heats up the whole machine faster and better as well as the cups and makes for a better and HOT coffee.
Crema is acheivable, even by an amateur, I managed within a week of use! The steamer makes hot and firm froth in no time.
The Key is to do the 'blank shots', tamp the coffee, use good ingredients and experiment with what you like best!
It works for me, but ... June 26, 2008

I've used it for months now and I love it, however, it may not suit everyone. I use a large cup for my cappuccino
and the two cup coffee filter almost full. To make two I have to do it all again, fortunately this is rare (wife likes tea) Using small cups you could make two cappuccino's together.
Someone complained of noise - it's slightly noisier than boiling a kettle but only for about 20 seconds.
Someone complained of half hour to heat up - instructions also tell you the quick method which is seconds.
Someone complained of milk not frothing - I have had no problem, read the instructions!
For the money and for one (me) it does the job.
Great Machine, Great Coffee :) June 1, 2008

I was a bit apprehensive in buying this machine as you always see those MASSIVE coffee machines in Starbucks, Costa, Nero, etc And then when you see how small this one is, you think it's gonna be a letdown.....
But this machines is really awesome and I really love it !!
If you buy this.........your life will be better :)
Excellent machine for little money May 19, 2008

I received this as a gift after reading great reviews here. I wasn't disappointed, the high pressure makes perfect "crema" espressos and the steamer is more than capable of the job. I use fresh water every time (even overnight it will taste of plastic from the storage vessel). Semi skimmed milk straight from the fridge froths to 2/3 times it's volume for perfect cappuccinos.
The only criticisms are that the tamping thing (pressing down coffee) comes out easily for cleaning but the milk frothing nozzle doesn't, so you can end up with dried milk deposits inside the plastic nozzle. The steamer sometimes needs a rest to recharge half way until the light comes back on. The drip tray is very shallow and vibrates easily so you need to hold the cup in place whilst the pump is running else it will move away from the nozzles.
Overall though, very nice coffee from a low priced machine. Certainly good value compared to the traditional Italian branded devices at 4x the price.
