Advantages: makes a good brew
Disadvantages: water tank cap is fiddly to use

Hi , Having never owned a coffee machine but being a coffee fan, we bought this 18 months ago from tesco as it was on sale at £35 . first appearances on unpacking the machine was its flimsy build quality, I was sure it would not last 5 minutes. Never the less i pressed on and turned to the instructions which were well written and exhaustive. The machine will make 10 cups of filter coffee and keep that warm. however I am not a big fan of that side ...
...quite quickly when left to stand. The other side to the machine does a great brue although the cap to the water tank can be fiddly to remove / replace and my missus struggles greatly with this. the steam nozzle on the side does a great job of frothing the milk for the cappucino. all in all not a bad machine which has proved me wrong with its durability. ...

Advantages: Cheap, quick, easy to clean, reasonable coffee
Disadvantages: Slightly ugly

"Espress' Value! Having broke my way through three different espresso machines during the last 24 months I was very sceptical of purchasing a coffee maker at the extremely low price of £9, particularly when it was becoming clear that what I needed is "help" and not a new coffee-inducing product. My previous buys had all been priced between £80-to-£100 and I'd killed them all with my addiction, but staring me in the face at Asda were a stockpile ...
...stripped-down versions of what I'd been using in the past. "Espresso Machine - £9" read the advertising…who wouldn't pick it up? I popped Asda's own brand 'Onn' OE001 in my trolley and continued about my business. Several hours later I was home, unpacked and fancied a brew. Herein lies the first minor point - had it have been a Gaggia or Krups it wouldn't have taken me seven hours to remove it from the box; the machine does indeed lack the desirability ... Read review

Advantages: Makes good quality coffee, cheap to use
Disadvantages: None

I've had this coffee maker for over a year now and I have to say I'm very happy with it. It looks good in the kitchen, being black and silver, made from high quality plastic so is easily wiped clean, and has a good variety of flavours widely available, and reasonably priced. I received this machine as a wedding present, but I believe that it now costs around £90. At the time it was coming with a free accessories pack, comprising coffee capsules, ...
...far as I'm aware the product is still available with this accessories pack. Coffee capsules are available in the following flavours: Cappuccino Latte Expresso Lungo Chococin o Mocha Cappuccino Ice - Summer only Lungo Decaffeinato - limited edition Expresso Intenso - limited edition I have tried most of these flavours and have found them to be close to the real deal available in coffee shops. Most of these are available for around £3 for ... Read review

Advantages: Quick, Great Taste, Ease of use
Disadvantages: The pods are a little expensive

This is an great looking coffee machine that not only provides a wonderful drink but also looks good in a modern kitchen. Easy to use and excellent taste, the pods are a little expensive and some are hard to find in the shops. I recomend the Latte and Choccino. The choice is however still rather limited, so hopefully more choices will be out soon to add to the list. The way it heats up the water if cost effecient and much safer that a kettle if ...

Advantages: professional brewing; great results; easy to use
Disadvantages: coffee temperature could be a bit hotter. Warming tray size too small

...I have had three other Saeco models, so I am used to how they work. The coffee quality is much better with this new model. Friends say it tastes more like the coffee from a cafe' shop. Great crema . Everything is easy to use. It has a milk island which is an optional extra. It produces a dense frothed milk, much like the style everyone is after today not the light super fluffy type, but you can still produce this by steaming the milk with the steam ...
...is not hot enough unless you prewarm your cups with hot water. the warming tray ontop is a bit small and could be hotter. There is a two year warranty and my machine has just started to leak water a little so I hope this is the only problem I have. I will get it checked out, same with the temperature as I know somtimes it can be altered if it is not hot enough. I tried an instore machine of the same model and the coffee was much hotter. I make cuppucinos, ... Read review
