1. They are quieter than Pixie and Co.
2. A jewel for every kitchen.
3. Need little space.
4. For Sngles or connoisseur perfectly adequate.
5. The coffee exiting the outlet is also pretty hot.
The operation is simple:
Fill filtered water into the tank.
Insert the plug into the socket.
Press left button to turn on.
Runterstellen cup and insert capsule top (used capsule is ejected).
If the right button stops flashing once briefly until the required capacity of the cup has been reached.
Then again press briefly to stop and turn left again, enjoy coffee. :)
I had with the Essenza series never water stains only now and then the power switch had to be cleaned after about a year, as the humidity for contact difficulties caused, otherwise the Krups XN 2003 makes quiet grumbling her job.
The orig. Nepressokapseln had never given me stomach problems, also not of LIDL what I but from other capsule machines can not say, because they are the purest rat poison.
Refilling the capsules not worth it because it will never taste like orig. filled capsules and the capsules there is finally also from other manufacturers relatively cheap to buy and are the orig. Nespresso after barely.
Wen made the espresso capsule machines is too weak, no capsule machine should buy, but for quick cuppa ranges something but all came out.
Monday appliances there are unfortunately everywhere and who had the misfortune to catch one also will not be happy and will complain about it. : D
Conclusion:
I would Krups XN 2003 purchase at any time and I find the manual operation (cup filling) all ok for me.
