A good machine if you use it properly.
This is probably the best value in the entry-level 15-bar machines. It delivers a good-tasting espresso drink with consistently thick crema.

LOVE THIS MACHINE (replaced my old Krups)
I have to say, I absolutely love this machine! This is a preliminary review since I just got it today — I will try to remember to do a follow-up review in about a month…

4Lbs of coffee so far.. hasn’t skipped a beat!

I am downgrading this machine from my original review!
April 6, 2009: This is my second and final update. I decided to try this model again. I purchased a new unit, brought it home, and opened the box.

on 3rd unit
I really liked this machine when I first got it. However, since then I have had to return it twice, both under warranty.

Great coffee maker
I got this as an unexpected Christmas present and it is my most loved. I use it everyday to make my latte and whatever comes to mind.
