I bought this coffee there a month. Delivery expected, proper packaging. I plugged it and ... it works !!! It is very easy to use, heats quickly (about 2 minutes) and makes great coffee. I worked in the restaurant business and I confess that I find the taste of espresso coffee worthy of the name! Be careful to turn off the machine when not using it to prevent overheating !!! Clean the sleeve systematically (go under the water is enough) and you will keep your machine time (I hope). Remember to check the water tank before each use. If you have hard water, you might want to use mineral water to avoid scaling problems. I had coffee before SAECO Odeo, I paid 300 euros and that lasted only 14 months. Electronics too !!!! This machine is the perfect compromise for lovers of espresso. Inexpensive, effective, practical and especially economic compared with Nespresso coffee makers and others who consume only capsules that are expensive and where we do not really know what there is. There at least you can choose coffee for you without any limit ... I hope my review will help you make your choice and it has been useful. Good tasting.
