How much better can a kettle be?
Review of Morphy Richards 43312 by Finchie

Advantages: Quiet, quiet, quiet
Disadvantages: None

I bought this kettle to replace a stainless steel one that was so noisy that I couldn't hear the radio when it was boiling! I'm pleased to be able to say that I made the right choice when selecting this kettle with quiet boil technology. OK, it's not ... Read review

Kenwood's Classy Kettle
Review of Kenwood SJM250 by pink_champagne

Advantages: Boils quickly, 360 degree base, cord storage
Disadvantages: cheap looking button!

I had been using a cheap Cookworks kettle that was bought in the Argos sale for just £4.99 around 5 years ago and although it was very basic it had lasted me well. When it started to leak though, I had to look for a replacement, rather than run the risk o ... Read review

Sounds good to me, our ancient Tefal is starting to show its age, and when it leaks that will be curtains.........Sue by suehome
I could really do with updating my kettle....it's about 4-5yrs old too, and whilst it does work perfectly well, when I pour water from spout it sort of drips a bit onto my worktop...which annoys me. x by missy0303

Italian Style, and Delicious Coffee!
Review of Gaggia GD One W by NickleIckle

Advantages: Looks, Quality, Ease of use
Disadvantages: Expensive, takes a while to be ready to use

I have used this machine for a little over a year now at work in the shop where I work. We are not a cafe, so we don't sell huge amounts of hot drinks each day - about 15-20 drinks on average, and this machine was recommended for our amount of use. Th ... Read review

Quick review of Siemens TK 68 E 570
Review of Siemens TK 68 E 570 by laretta

I am happy with this coffee machine. It gives a good crema and nice flavour - coffee does not taste burnt. It is very easy to use and even easier to run a cleaning cycle - it really does do all the work for you. A drawback is that you can not tailor the measures to your own cup sizes and occasionally the beans do not automatically drop into the grinder and need a little help. ( this only happens with certain brands of beans)

Quick review of Krups KP200040 Dolce Gusto
Review of Krups KP200040 Dolce Gusto by sbaynes

This is a good coffee making machine but it is let down by the cost of the pods (over £3 for 8 coffees) I love my machine - mainly because I got it for free

Gaggia Baby Twin = designed to annoy you
Review of Gaggia New Baby Twin by AA747

Advantages: it wakes you up in the morning, not with coffee, but with frustration and anger.
Disadvantages: Dangerous, time-wasting, unreliable, poor repair system, no hard water filter

If you wish to know true hatred then buy this machine. If you want to reach the point of smashing your £350 pile of expensive crap to pieces, then go ahead buy this machine. But if you just want to have a nice cup of coffee, forget it. It was designed ... Read review

Water good show
Review of Brita Marella Cool Water Filter by Gary25

Advantages: Makes tap water taste great, removes impurities
Disadvantages: Initial outlay and too big to fit into most fridges

I go through phases and at the moment I'm fed up with tea and coffee, carbonated drinks leave me bloated, and we all know the side effects of drinking too much fruit juice, so that leaves water. Where I live, our tap water is not the greatest. It has a ... Read review

Great budget performer
Review of Gaggia Espresso by tyneman

Advantages: Cheap, good pump pressure, easy as pie to use.
Disadvantages: Recent units use aluminium -can corrode

We drink a hell of a lot of coffee here and this is the culprit! It is cheap, its pretty well made and is a great introduction to a good espresso (or cappucino, frothy hot choc etc) The unit design has not changed much since they were released but some ... Read review

A classy looker and an impressive performer
Review of Gaggia New Baby Class by JonnyCarpo37

Advantages: Looks good. Solidly made. Excellent coffee once you learn how to use it!
Disadvantages: Takes time to learn how to use it and get good, consistent results.

A year of ownership and I am still impressed with its looks and even more so with the coffee it makes. It takes time and patience to learn how to use the Baby Class properly so if you are the type of person who wants to press one button and have exactly t ... Read review

Review of Tesco CM16 by TerryCordery

We bought one at Christmas 2007. It has now failed....that's less than one year old. Not very impressive. It was never very good at keeping the coffee hot and it now refuses to heat the water. It is now junk.

Hi. I realise your quite new on here so have a look at other peoples reviews, especially if they have a coloured dot as this 'usually' means they know what they are doing! This review is really short. You could add more by saying about its cost, where purchased from, cost of the coffee, is it special coffee, the ease of cleaning, and so on. Good luck . by martinwi
