The design is a matter of taste. With its black and silver plastic case it awakens memories of almost older PCs. Here less plastic'd better like me. Yet I do not think even with long-term use, that something might get broken. The coffee output module is adjustable in height, here fit all my cups models topsy properly. The concealed with transparent plastic bean tank is chic and has the nice side effect, keep those beans stock in view. Who would not like this, obtained by a second contained a black cover something more cohesive design. The complete bean container is also removable for and interchangeable. Therefore, the use of multiple container touted in this model, to switch quickly to another Bohnenrt. For me, this function, the device evaluates not and I doubt that users should buy another tank for just under 30 euros, because it is only contained a.
Design and flavor aside: The Saeco Moltio has some for improvement characteristics that are undesirable in an original price of 700 to my mind:
1) The biggest shortcoming are the control keys for me. So to speak, one with the surface, notches make it to operate keys. It happens very often that I have to press twice (with the thumb) to get a reaction. Not because they do not work, but because you just have to press firm to meet the underlying contacts. Subsequent presses required of me, although not much time or strength from, but I can not deny that it is annoying sometimes. For example, if you want to wake up in the morning on the way to the bathroom, the machine in advance, it is then not even turned on when you return.
2) You get no warning before the water is approaching the end. So it often happens that only a mini lot of coffee is served and only then comes a red water drop icon. A level indicator or Dursicht have here can help.
3) The external milk frother works well and properly. His screwing and unscrewing, and cleaning of details (hose and adapter) and the hot water output to the unit's time-consuming. I taste cappuccino or latte at best, it sometimes gets on my nerves. So I'd rather might prefer other Saeco models that offer other solutions for Milschschaum.
Should leave you always wash the external parts of Hygeniegründen immediately. The plastic tube yellowed quickly. Here and in all other Reinigunsvorgängen many cleaners are touted in the instructions. Sufficient starter set would have the package are welcome to accompany it contained only a small brush and grease tube.
Conclusion: The machine runs properly for months, regular cleaning is (as with all fully automatic) relatively time-consuming and easy. The coffee is hot enough and always delicious, all selectable degrees of strength. The external Milchaufschäumer remains a matter of taste and is as stubborn keys ultimately to bear, but do not justify the old price. Rather, this explains the current discount.
