Amazon.com Review
By combining a regular coffeemaker and espresso machine, this 1500-watt appliance makes it possible to satisfy every coffee craving with a single, compact unit. Separate water tanks permit simultaneous coffee and espresso brewing for satisfying everyone at once. The espresso-machine side includes a steam nozzle with a foolproof frothing attachment for creating coffee drinks like cappuccino and café latté. Making espresso follows tradition: tamping the proper amount of coffee into a filter basket inside a filter holder, twisting the filter holder onto the machine, pouring water into the machine's boiler, and twisting the control knob, which instantly goes from the off position to brewing espresso or frothing milk. Depending on the amount of water, up to four 2-ounce cups will then be brewed into an 8-ounce glass carafe. Making regular coffee also adheres to tradition: inserting a filter into the filter basket, spooning in coffee, pouring water into the coffeemaker's tank, and pressing a button. Depending on the amount of water, up to ten 5-ounce cups of coffee will then be brewed into a 50-ounce glass carafe, which sits on a warming plate. Removing the carafe from the warming plate pauses the brewing process for 20 seconds to accommodate a midbrew pour. A programmable digital clock/timer makes it possible to brew wake-up coffee at a selected time up to 24 hours in advance. For safety, the machine automatically shuts off two hours after brewing. The machine has a bright plastic exterior, measures 13 inches wide, 12 inches high, and 10 inches deep, weighs 4-3/4 pounds, and carries a one-year warranty against defects. An illustrated booklet provides clear operating instructions. --Fred Brack Editor's note: This item may arrive with water inside from the manufacturer's pressure test. This is a normal occurrence and doesn't indicate a problem with the machine.

 Great coffee maker September 2, 2008
Rtantti (Arvada, CO)
I bought this maker around 1993. About years later it finally is having trouble with it's power switch. I'm looking into a new one in the hopes that I can take advantage of some of the industries innovations. It has worked like a champ and got me through college, brewing one to two pots a day. The espresso this machine makes is ok... could be better. But the machine has been a champ. It has been with me through 10+ moves over the past 16 years and if it weren't for the power switch I'd hope to keep it for another 16. Overall, this is an excellent reliable coffee/espresso combo maker. Your money will be well spent.

I love the Krups coffee/cappuccino machine July 8, 2007
Cheryl Arminio (Shelton, CT United States)
This is my 3rd or 4th Krups coffee/espresso/cappuccino machine. I received the first one as a gift and every time the machine stopped working correctly, I've replaced it with the identical machine. Each one has lasted about 4-5 years. I make about 30 pots of coffee per week. I hope they never stop making this machine, I love it.

I received the Krups Caffe Bistro coffee/espresso maker 10 years ago as a gift. It never malfunctioned. It made wonderful frothy latte, strong espresso, and great coffee. After 10 years, it died out last week. ...I'm on Amazon today not surprised at all to see the exact product still on the market! I'm buying another one today! Here's to another 10 years!

Ok, was very skeptical at first (I bought it from a guy at a garage sale that claimed he got it as a house warming gift and never used the espresso side). This machine does everything it says it does! One note, when your heating milk shut the espresso down half way thru the process, you'll get nice foam results because you'll have plenty of steam. Be careful with the Espresso Filter Holder, I broke the handle off mine the first day I had it! (I was probably man handling it... lol) Over all A+++
