The coffee bought from us was not fully usable from the beginning. Each time making coffee you had to first stand by and adjust the coffee pot exactly, so that the water does not overflow. That meant the coffee pot as long move back and forth until they had the correct position. That can not be so well. I expect a coffee maker that it operates on its own, without me having to stand by, so I meanwhile already can do other work. On 30.09.2014 it has become final "abandoned ghost" her. She could not be turned on at once. A return came to us out of the question, since the device was delivered to Spain and the postage costs for returning from Spain are enormously high. So we had no choice but to us a new coffee machine here in Spain - to buy - in no case an AEG. Too bad, because so far we have always been very satisfied with the delivery from Amazon.
