Great little machine September 30, 2008 Carol Walters (Wauwatosa, WI United States) I have had a couple of these now and use them often - everyday. Don't even go to the coffee shops cause mine are better, can make them just the way I like them. This machine does a great job.
Love It! September 23, 2008 Jose Alvarez (Miami, Florida United States) This machine is super easy to use and makes excellent espresso. I love it, my family loves it, and even when I took it to work everyone in the office loved it.
Returned defective, 2nd one bad too September 15, 2008 Aaron Davis (Santa Rosa, CA USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
We returned the 1st one on warranty because the steam/drip dial was not responding. The replacement came and now it will heat the water but only a drop or two comes out. Steam works fine. I'm not spending anymore time on this... going to purchase a more expensive model from a different maker.
Piece of junk and bad coffee September 6, 2008 C. Glu (Texas!) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
My first review, ever. I can't return this piece of junk Krups because I waited too long. Don't make that mistake. I only have three complaints: 1. Poor construction. Within 3 months the handle broke off the filter holder. 2. Poor design. The liquid coffee container's top is connected to the glass container making more difficult to place in the dishwasher. 3. BUT WORST OF ALL: BAD COFFEE. There is some kind of metallic smell and taste to the coffee. I thought that it would go away over time but it didn't. We used to own a Mr. Coffee espresso maker but it died after 15 years. Then, we have tried this piece of junk Krups. We now own another Mr. Coffee (only $40) and we are back to decent (not great) espresso-like coffee without the metallic taste. I see others like their Krups machine. Maybe it is just a matter of luck. Roll the dice if you like but I am sticking with Mr. Coffee.
Magnificent! August 22, 2008 Brock Imel (Ft. Wayne, IN, USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I really have only wonderful things to say about this little machine. I bought it about a year ago for my dorm room (what does that say about me??) and it received almost constant use. The espresso has a respectable crema on it, and the frother works wonders. I removed the plastic appendage after day 2 and it still makes perfect foam right in my coffee cup! If you're looking for a moderately priced machine that makes drinks that taste leaps and bounds better than anything you could get at a coffee shop like Starbucks (they burn the milk!!), seriously consider this one!
