I don't really remember how much I paid for this "factory refurbished" machine on ebay, it was so long ago. I am guessing about $125 but it may have been less than that. Ours is a plain Jane black, not all stainless steel. It is stainless steel...

I have had my machine for almost a year, and have been very pleased. With no Starbucks on the way to work, I needed a way to get my daily latte. With no experience in espresso making, I did a lot of web research before I purchased this unit (based on ...

After reading epinion reviews on this unit, I purchased one second-hand off of the internet about four years ago. Today (Sat. Jan 10, 2009) it died.... I love fresh ground coffee and this unit has performed exceptionally well. I learned to live with...

My machine is rebadged as a Starbucks Proteo Romanza, but the crappy paint job and white lettering hasn't affected its performance thus far. The bottom of the machine still says "Gaggia" and "Coffee".

My wife and I sold our fully automatic Gaggia Synchony Compact when we moved from London UK to Houston Texas. When we arrived in Texas we had grandiose ideas about upgrading to a fancier fully automatic. However surfing the coffee lists on Amazon I ...

After a lot of research I narrowed it down to the gaggia mdf and the rocky. I bought the MDF because Peet's had it on sale for $199 which was a great deal. I paired it with the Gaggia Classic and have been very happy with the performance of this...

Other reviewers have commented how complicated it is just to make coffee, but I found that within a week I was able to use the machine without difficulty. Cleaning all the parts IS more complicated than a drip machine. Getting the used filter out is...

I purchase one of these espresso machines from Starbucks several weeks ago and have had nothing but trouble with it. I tried using Starbucks Espresso grind and their PODS. I have used it more than a dozen times with each grind and still it will not run...

Went back to old version to replace 10 year old. Ten years is old for coffee maker, so I got my money's worth back then. Bought the newer burr grinding updated version. It will not feed the beans and the coffee ends up weak. Fed up with burr 'no grind'...

I have owned two of these units. We wore out the first one, and replaced it with an identical one (except it didn't have a clock and timer, not a big deal). It brews great coffee, keeps it warm for hours (even overnight), and is a snap to clean. The...

This coffee maker is clearly the child of it's commercial/industrial parents; It functions exactly like the commercial Bunn unit at my office. A storage tank keeps water hot at all times, which is supposed to ensure appropriate brewing temperature. ...

I have been using single cup coffee brewers since many years, the Melitta One:One, the Keurig B70, and Breville/Keurig BKC600XL. Even though none of those are supposed to be used with loose tea they all worked great to make loose tea. I also drink...

Interestingly this headset works perfectly and a good value for money. Will recommend to friends.

The Bunn NHBX was our second recent attempt to find a coffee maker that would make a great cup of coffee. This all started when someone in my office made some flavored coffee in our Bunn at work. The enticing aroma first caught my attention...and...

Looking for a coffee maker with a thermal carafe (to do away with scorched coffee & carafes) and a timer, and having been pleased with the performance and functionality of Krups coffee/espresso combo unit that we had owned for 10+ years, the Krups FMF5...

I can't think of a thing that could be made better (other that the water tank).

I am not someone that could be called a coffee geek. I like good espresso but do not have the time or the inclination to spend hours on a traditional machine getting a shot perfect. Living where I do if I want an espresso ‘how it should be done' then I...

I make at least 4 double shots a day ( since 1 year). I bring my machine to familly and friends party and make coffee for everybody. The machine is well built and works great (so far). I cannot understand why people are always bashing this machine. I...

Love the "no carafe" design, the coffee tastes fine, and the programing is simple.

Love that it does't have anything glass to clean, so no worries about breaking the caraffe. The brew station offers that early cup without waiting till the cycle is done which tastes just as good as the last cup. I have found that it really isnt hard...

After returning from a 5 week business trip to northern Italy and drinking great espresso, the thought of returning to drab cafè americano was quite depressing. I am a home espresso newbie, and after going through this site, the thought of making...
