Advantages: Easy to use, best featured at the price. Disadvantages: None.
Very easy to use, value for money (at time of writing 300 GBP cheaper on rebelio.co.uk than anywhere else).
Fully automatic bean-to-cup espresso, cappucino and latte - no other machine in this price range, nor many much more expensive, is as featured, simple to use and clean as this one.
From opening the box to first espresso took 30 minutes. Once the machine has warmed up (about 2 minutes), you can have an espresso in 30 seconds, latte or cappucino in just under a minute.
If you are becoming tired of drinking disappointing and lukewarm coffee from your filter machine and want to experiment with latte or cappucino as well as espresso then this machine cannot bettered at the price.
ADDED: Still using over a year later - no problems, best gadget I ever bought. If you love coffee, buy a machine of this standard! ...
Advantages: It doesn't turn off automatically, it takes filter papers, and is very simple to use. Disadvantages: The 'smooth side trigger action' isn't very effective.
In December 2006, my coffee filter machine broke, well, it was the operators? error, but I thought it was broke ? so, I bought a new one: the Krups version.

Wattage: 1100W
Krups is a mid-range brand in the coffee machine world. I had decided on this machine before I went out to buy one: due to the advertised features. I found it difficult to locate any Krups machines in Chester; they had top end machines and the rubbish lower end ones, but Krups, Magimix ...

Advantages: Great espressos and regular filter coffee Disadvantages: Espressos sometimes are not hot enough
produce good espressos, that's the challenge! But it succeeds!
The only thing not perfect is their temperature, especially the first ones, they may get only warm, not really hot as I love. This way, I recommend you to pre-heat all the accessories, and you can easily do it on the machine itself. Putting the empty filter and the cups as if you were making a coffee, you'll warm the cups enough to make the first coffees with the right temperature.
Another good thing, it makes 2 espressos at a time!
Of course, if you stick to the basics, you'll get good coffee, but you'll be missing most of the machine capacities.
I highly recommend you to read the manual. This book will help you to explore all the range of things this Krups do.
Is very easy to read, and bring amazing pratical information, that will help you to be the most renowned coffee ...
