love it

 

I love this coffee maker. It is quick and convenient. I use it every day. My boyfriend has a large maker that he uses frequently- I have tried it but this is much easier. It is great for one person. Strong coffee.

Easy to Use, Fast Brewing, Quality Construction

Occasional Cappuccino Partaker

My wife and I like an occasional cappuccino but would have to drive 25 miles to a specialty coffee shop or 15 miles to McD's. We bought this machine on an impulse ($29.99). It did not take long to learn how to operate, including the frother. It...

Superb Espresso/Cappuccino Maker - after break-in

When we first brought the ECM250 home, it had a very strong plastic smell, and brewed water that tasted like plastic. The design looked great, easy to use and keep clean, strong steam, and really looked like rather high quality for the very low cost....

good for the money

I got this at walmart for $30. It takes up hardly any space on my counter and I was very happy with this product when I bought it. I love lattes but I hate paying $4-$5 per drink. With this machine, I could buy a whole bag of coffee for the price of...

Makes good espresso, but very slow. Poor quality and customer service

 

Makes good espresso, but very slow. Poor quality and customer service

About 5 months ago, I purchased this product for $30 after I read positive reviews. My first cup of espresso took about 4-5 mins, but I was impressed with the flavor. Once the cup has brewed, is takes another 2-3 mins to heat the froth the milk. Over...
