Advantages: great coffee, durable machine, easy to use
Disadvantages: Cleaning out coffee grinds

We were given one of these machines as a wedding gift almost 3 years ago. Since then it has seen almost daily service. I am a bit of a coffee addict and in my time have owned a variety of coffee making devices. This is the best I have tried in terms of taste of coffee, ability to keep coffee hot, duarability of machine, size of machine for storage and ease of use. As you may guess - I like it !! The perculator as you see in the picture the perculator ...
...platform just as a cordless kettle. The stainless steel jug is pleasing to look at and easy to keep shiny and clean. There is an indicator on the side to measure the water. Inside there is a basket in which to place the coffee with indicator marks which correspond to number of cups required. This is a little difficult to see. To clean outside simply wipe with a damp cloth. The jug is simply rinsed after use. The basket can be emptied into the compost ... Read review

Advantages: Great milk frother
Disadvantages: Takes a long time to clean

...coffee machine i thought the Morphy Richards Mr Cappuccino would be my ideal solution. I was right in a way! The coffee produced was good and the milk frother was excellent. It came with a handy recipe section in the manual to tell me exactly how to make the perfect cappucino, latte, irish coffee etc. I couldn't be more happy, and then i had to wash it up! with 5 seperate parts that all need washing (some immediately before you can even enjoy your ...

...the tassimo such as hot chocolate, twinings tea, classic blend coffee, espresso coffee and many more. The pods are all great brand names. Usually supermarkets have great deals with the pods aswell.

Advantages: Coffee perfection at home, easy to use, easy to clean
Disadvantages: None

...and as he had the Morphy Richards Mister Cappuccino and loved it he decided to get me the same. They cost approximately £59.99 and can be bought from most stores that sell homewares, Debenhams, Argos etc. The machine is quite large so you will need a bit of counter top space in your kitchen to put it on. It is nice enough looking to have out on display all the time as it is quite heavy and awkward so I do not recommend moving it in and out of a ...
...many people have put away machines like this never to use them again, so go on, keep it out and maybe you will use it from time to time. The machine allows you to make coffee in a number of ways. There is a large coffee pot on the left hand side that allows you to make filter coffee. It holds up to 10 cups of coffee and I find it is handy to put on if you have a lot of people coming over. There is a warming plate underneath it that will keep your ... Read review

Advantages: Ease of use, perfect coffee, great for frothing milk.
Disadvantages: Hard to use a mug for coffee

...were several machines BUT the Krups 897 had the "normal" milk frother and at half price ($350) it won me over. Perfect coffee time after time. The Krups is a breeze to use - very quick and versatile. 30 seconds to clean at the end of the day. The only complaint I have with the Krups is that the space between the spill tray and the coffee extraction is a little low and I keep having to take the drip tray out to get coffee into the mug ! TIP - froth ... Read review
