Krups KP 2000

I bought the Dolce Gusto as a Christmas gift for my husband after reading lots of positive reviews on the internet about the machine. He's the big coffee drinker and I thought he would enjoy something a bit different. (I've always been a cold drinks only type of person - apart from hot chocolate and the occasional fancy dessert coffee - who only liked the smell of coffee but could easily live without it.) However, after ordering the machine, I became ...
...if it is too good to be true?" Well, I can happily say that there wasn't anything to worry about. We both absolutely love this machine (yes, I am now a coffee convert) and I would even go as far as saying this is the best and most enjoyable appliance I ever bought for the kitchen. The machine is easy to use. Turn the machine on and wait about 15 seconds for the green light on the front panel to stop flashing. Simply slide in your coffee/milk pods ...

Review of Krups KP 2000

The post man arrives with my new, much coveted Dolce Gusto Nescafe Coffee machine. I ignore the freshly brewed tea on the bench and begin ripping the box open desperate to see what all the fuss is about. My excitement is three fold because I have been lucky enough to receive this coffee machine FREE as part of my role as a Bzzagent whereby I receive free products to use and share with friends and provide feedback. The machine is extremely well packaged, ...
...reuse, recycle'. However, within less than five minutes I have unpacked the machine speed read the instructions and assembled the machine. Assembly involved plugging it in and attaching a drip tray to the front of the machine. Before using the machine you have to use a rinse tool to clean it. This is very handily already in place so I add some water, press a button and its cleaning. This is just such an easy machine to use and my excitement is growing ...

...coffee, instantly Made by Krups and guaranteed for two years. Using the machine was simple. You fill the water tank, nice big lid, speeds up the process, turn it on at the side and a green light starts to flash, once this has finished (about 10-20 seconds) there is a place to insert the pod right at the front as you push down on this it pierces the pod you then push down the lever to allow the hot water to run through the pod and make the coffee. ...
...The choccochino requires 4/5 of the cup to be from the chocochinno capsule with a 1/5 from the milk capsule. The speed is what I like about it the best. After the few seconds it takes for the green light to go steady, the water heats instantly as it passes through the machine and its like just going out and having a drink without having to put on the kettle and stand around waiting etc. The instructions supplied and the quick reference cards make ...

Review of Krups KP 2000

Ok first off, I LOVE THS MACHINE. Despite any problems I have mentioned below I am very glad I bought it. Here we go.... The Machine I've wanted a coffee machine for quite some time but unfortunately have quite a small kitchen so I am very limited with space so was shopping around for ages. The Dolce Gusto is very compact and quite trendy. I got the black version (comes in red & white as well) so it would go regardless of deco. The machine is ...
...so (until the red light stops flashing & goes green), slot in capsule, push the lever down to pierce/lock in the capsule, then turn the handle to hot. Can't get easier than that. The handle is manual so you can have as much/little water as you like. However it pays to follow the instructions per type of coffee. It's quite noisey but it's only on for about 30 secs so no big problem. The water heats through the machine immediatly (like a professional ...

...Dolce Gusto coffee maker. Krups are already well known for making reliable coffee making machines, and by joining with Nescafe who, in my opinion, make the nicest tasting coffees - this machine got me interested straight away. Having opened the box - my first impression of the machine was that it was very simple in design but stylish at the same time. I went for the Black colour option, however there is also a Red and an Ivory option as well. All ...
...machine I purchased came with a FREE welcome pack which had a Latte Glass, Cappuccino cup with saucers and a variety of the coffee capsules, all in one box. Its a high pressure machine (14 bars pressure) with removable drip tray and a washable filter.The coffee maker itself is very simple to use - ideal for beginners who have never used an Espresso machine before. It has a three height adjustable drip tray so you are guaranteed to get the coffee ...

My Mum gave me some money as a present and I wanted to buy something special instead of just wasting the money. I deliberated long and hard and finally decided on the Dolce Gusto machine. I had seen the advert where they dance around and thought the styling was great. I like my specialist coffee but I'm no connoisseur so price and looks was the decider for me. My Dolce Gusto machine arrived with some free samples of coffee pods, a free cup and saucer ...
...included so I called the helpline number and was given a reference code to add points to my Dolce Gusto account. With these points you can buy things from the online shop. I love my Dolce Gusto machine. The coffee tastes as good as and often better than the takeaway coffee I buy in the specialist coffee bars in town. It also works out much cheaper. I like the different coffees such as latte, mocha and cappuccino. My son loves the hot chocolate (Chococcino) ...

My Dolce Gusto coffee machine was given to me as a Christmas Present. It is a very stylish piece of Kitchen kit. Mine is black and silver, and i know that there are other colours available, having seen the red one advertised on the TV. The machine came complete with a china cup and saucer and a glass hot chocolate mug. There was also a box of capsules of all varieties, Expresso, Cappuccino, Latte Macchiato, Caffe Lungo and Chococino. Inside the box ...
...capsules when you enter the Nescafe Dolce Gusto Website and register your details. You can also buy the capsules here too, and more mugs or glass cups, you can also buy the New Dolce Gusto Cappucinno Ice. The machine is all ready to use when taken out of the box. You have a three height drip tray which just clips in at the height that you want so that you dont spill anything. The glass water container just needs filling from the tap and after it ...

I purchased my dolce gusto in john lewis for approx £79.99 around christmas time. The pack i bought came with three free coffee mugs and saucers and a taster of each flavour (cafe lungo, espresso, cappuccino and latte machiato - they now also do hot chocolate!) So is it easy to put together?? Well there isn't really much to put together - the unit stands as a whole, with a seperate mini bin for the capsules, a removable water jug (which you just ...
...stand for the mug to go on - which just clips on at adjustable heights on the front. Now what: Once you have done that & filled the jug with water - you just turn it on and it takes seconds to be ready - indicated by a little light. You pull out the capsule holder put a capsule flavour of your choice and push back in. You then push the switch to the right for hot or left for cold - and it is as simple as that. Also it really need v little cleaning, ...

Review of Krups KP 2000

My Dolce Gusto machine was given to me by a good friend when i began working from my home office. He thought it may be more convenient than having a kettle anyway! I was suprised at how easy it as to set up and the modern, stylish look! Once the machine was set to go I reached for the Nescaffe pods and instruction cards and had my heart set on a Chocochino! I followed the instructions and inserted the pods etc but was a little miffed to find that ...
...and then swap again to get the right "layering effect" and taste. Apart from the fiddling about with leaking pods I was impressed by the taste! The water compartment or orb on the top acts as a kettle with the water heating up by simply pressing the on switch to the side. You then move the lever to either red or blue for hot or cold water, or when using the pods, the pod needs to be inserted into the machine and then the water runs through the pod. ...

I decided to treat myself to a coffee machine so went to macro and was amazed at the amount of different types available, I decided on this dolce gusto mainly because of its looks and the fact you get a cappucino cup and saucer and a latte glass and a box of mixed coffee to get you started......... This was one of the best decisions I have ever made, Not only are the stylish looks brilliant but the cup and glass are of good qulity and quite fancy ...
...need to do is fill the jug up with cold water and turn it on it then takes about 30seconds if not less to heat the water up whilst this is happening all you need to do is put your coffee pod in the holder insert this into the macine and pull down....how simple is that.....you then position the dial for hot or cold water and there you have it a great expresso, If you want to make a latte or cappucino or hot chocolate you need to use 2 pods (1 with ...
