See video on Amazon.com I have had the opportunity to test this espresso machine SAECO Philips. I absolutely do not recommend. Robust design. While not entirely in stainless steel. I'm pretty familiar with the use SAECO products currently an automatic machine with integrated coffee grinder. After many more. Anyway, this model is much + basic. 15 bar pressure to deliver: -1 Or 2 coffee cups of ground coffee base. -1 2 coffee cups with "pods" of regular brands. Unless of course Nespresso. -water hot for tea preparation, tea and other hot drinks. This machine is compact on dimensions. Rather cumbersome it is however not provided with wheels. Why is that? Is that the water tank must absolutely remove upwards. Prohibitive if the machine must be located under a kitchen cabinet preventing easy removal Some other disadvantages: -The height under the ground coffee container and the cup is extremely small! Exit, then, the other bowls or mugs (No luck!) -The Nozzle that delivers the steam necessarily be off but do not yet offer a decent height to fill anything other than a small cup of about 6 cm high. Exit + large bowl again. Or other small pitcher The biggest ABERRATIONS, I found, on this machine: -Whether Automatic interruption of the flow of coffee! Specifically, in wait to flow into the cup to stop the machine before the cup overflows Absolutely not practical (Unlike other brand SAECO vending machines that, once configured on the desired amount of coffee, interrupt themselves) It is absolutely imperative to handle the large front button to stop the delivery of all types of beverages. This also applies to steam. (That's + conventional) -2nde DESIGN ineptitude: no switch off walk easily accessible. We have to: -or return the machine to painfully reach the switch. -or Slides his finger in the dark to find the switch!. No automatic sleep
Some positives may: -serrage compact ground coffee receptacle. -Small Compartment on top of the coffee-machine for storing the plastic pod. Practical! (Not especially not straying: only 1 included) -A Small plate cup warmer (2 small cups). The rise in temperature is fast. Anyway!
