I ordered this coffee machine in February 2011 and am completely thrilled to now. From opening the package to the first cup of coffee, everything went smoothly from the hand, thanks to the good and simple operating instructions. This coffee machine is ideal for a 2 person household, also agrees the value for money. The what of others was criticized in her review, so to speak (to small water tank, collecting tank for coffee pulp is too small and drip tray needs to be emptied too often, machine noise is too loud) everything is illogical - or want this Rezensionisten for nothing do good coffee to drink ?????? My opinion is very clear that Caffeo solo by Melitta is a very good coffee machine, small handy and easy to use, highly recommended.
