Not so Hot!

 

Not so Hot!

Literally, your coffee will not be very hot w/this machine. I have to reheat in the microwave to be decent. And no frothy top like the Senseo, which I also have. But, hey, I got this one on sale for $8 - and now I know why LOL! My husband will use it...

Maybe I'm just a Kwality kind of gal

 

But, this has been a very good espresso maker for us. We had it for 6 years until it broke last weekend. We made cappuccinos in it every day for those six years, and loved them. The cappuccios we make are not weak, in fact despite using starbucks...

50/50 chance I guess

 

I just bought my second one of this coffee maker and I suppose that could be a good thing or a bad thing. The reason I bought a second was it because my first one broke. The good thing is that I liked the first one enough to look past the fact that ...

Easy to use, affordable, options for drinks and sizes

Not tall enough for a tall travel mug, flimsy pod holder
