Since my husband is a techie, it has been unpacked and set up the machine. An advantage is that it does not take up as much space as our old model (also a Saeco). From the optics, it is quite ok, the material was most certainly saved because me our old model like much better, you do not feel that same breaks something and there would also have my doubts .. the water tank and the grounds container must to press against the plastic and then the / containers out (water / waste container). In this process, I have every time scared me aborts the flap. For coffee, I can say that it tastes and the milk foam is very nice and creamy. The extra container for the milk I find class and also that I can put it in the dishwasher really super. Macciato the bar I find delicious, but I find that he is likely to be a little hotter, but is determined on the settings. Espresso and cappuccino are also quite tasty and the normal coffee anyway. I prefer to drink the coffee from the fully automatic machines. The idea with the removable bean container I think it's great, but I have to say, when he first draufsitzt with us, then he will remain on it. However, if guests arrive, drink decaf coffee I find being able to change it super quickly. Oh, what I can think of, the machine is much quieter than ours, I think that's great. That you should place a cup under the spout always, because I have to get used to first. Whenever she goes to standby, it flushes through again and this is new for me, as I said, the sudden noise of flushing, although it has not pressed .. used to. Possibly is also a matter of attitude. Overall, not a bad machine but because of the many plastic and uncertain movements, there are two star deduction.
