The latter first. Actually, the design looks very good aus.Etwas sober, functional but thoughtfully. The slide-out water tanks, the Metallpllplatte for the drain and the attractive location of the keys. After opening the packaging, which is not really nice, tumbling toward me, the individual parts of the machine. Cheap plastic parts in welded Billigplastik.Schade Unboxing and arrangement of the components is the first school of successful products. The disorderly principle corresponds to the compilation of the items on the machine. A mishmash of good and very inferior elements seem to flow into this machine. Cost optimization? This Gaggia is actually a classic, like a beloved old Daimler, but the product assembled marked in Roumania agreed cheap plastic with good elements, such as the body of the machine. I build together and find the device cable is too short. It might be a little longer 80 cm would be great. I a turn. The pushbuttons does not tell me clearly whether the device is turned on. They are located a little crooked. I press adjacent buttons are these embedded at different depths. Well, go ahead. The filling area is not nice. a poor cast plastic. The cast has in my case yet restplatikfestzen hinterlassen.Schlechte at the inlet quality inspection? I build on together. Throw a look at the manual. Atrocious. Obsolete. simply adopted. I took advantage of my translation Sprachkenntnisse.Schlechte stupid graphics. The Group of Gaggia can buy has style and good instructions. Overall, many low cost components, not in relation to steht.DEr machine concept of the machine is sound tinny dull. The first pressing of the nozzle for frothing a rattling event. After that it was normal, but extremely loud. Espresso preparation with pads and en nature, previously ground beans succeed. Although the screens can initially be screwed hard. They can be both good use. The filter holder also has such a funny smooth handle, I have so not seen in an espresso machine. The results of the first three cups look good and are also provided with the necessary temperature. But why is the outflow of the coffee also made of plastic? Here all machines have that I know what more robust. The milk nozzle and water jet has oomph. Unfortunately I can not really regulate the. Either or. The rotary switch on the housing speaks a different language. Here perhaps even gradually use was possible .. Nevertheless. It's hot and the milk is frothed. And how do I make an overall assessment?
Conclusion: The Gaggia in this form is like a Daimler, in which you have replaced the good components or replaced by cheaper. This makes the machine is no longer the technology / espresso preparation experience, but to a machine that makes espresso. Anyone familiar with the old Gaggia machines, overcomes sadness. Who does not know the old, not innovative good ausgestatetes product has in front of him. But the next model will villeicht a real innovation. The espresso was still very good.
