Positives:
+ Removable tank
+ Design, you can of course argue about it
THERMO + (pot)
+ Fast preparation
Negatives:
- The Thermos yourself and your function
Now you might think, of course, "only a negative point". That's right, unfortunately it is one of the most basic parts at a coffee machine.
Before you buy is already noticed in a review the problem, but lack of alternatives (quick preparation, thermos and removable tank) I ordered the machine and you can all indeed test with water.
After the delivery had arrived (February 2012) so quickly unpacked and tested with water. Are you all right -> "the writer of the negative review for too sensitive or a Monday device owner stamped".
After 2 weeks of use the said problem started when poured with us. A portion of coffee just runs beside it and remains at the pot hanging, so dirty you also regularly the desk. Now we are constantly involved household paper on the tables.
After 4 months use suddenly opens even the lid while pouring. If you want to pour so the rest (last cup), the lid opens abruptly beyond the normal level and the rest Coffee pours over cup and table.
The machine runs here at least 3-4 times a day and the longer and more often it is used, the more aggravated the problem.
Conclusion: absolute disaster and not to accept, at least not for this price. No idea why the manufacturer did not understand and would rather make a decent product, like for 30 euros more, which then also works constantly tidy.
I'm going to try it with warranty, stupid only for Amazon, which are allowed to now space beat the problem of Siemens.
Addendum of 21:06.
So, since I do not have a machine during the warranty repair, I bought a replacement machine. I can really recommend, only the price is for the plastic already a strong message, but it works without compromise.
