Customer Reviews

User friendly
We are more than happy with this product, it is user friendly and the with 15 Bar pump pressure you can make the perfect cup of coffee in minutes, although it has the facility to do two cups of coffee at once we find it easier to do one cup at a time, we cannot fault this product it is good value for money and with a little practice you can get a excellent results.

Great if you can get replacement seals
Has been a great machine producing grood crema. It has always struggled with fine or moist coffee which consistently results in hot steam and coffee grounds being sprayed everywhere. Mine is now two years old and the seal has finally given up completely with or without coffee! Good bargain machine but dont expect it to last a lifetime.

Brilliant little machine
I bought this coffee machine together with the Krups milk frothing jug and I am absolutely delighted with it. I love cappuccino's and am pleased to say that it is really easy to get shop bought quality drinks with this machine. I found that skimmed milk works best for getting really good froth and give it a good minute or so to really heat the milk through and you will get a lovely coffee at the end.
