It is positive that it is small and beautiful. We need about ten to twelve cups every day, and to meet this need it is not suitable. Constantly you have to do something, the water from the bowl pour (even though there is no water in it), the pomace empty tray (oth only four cakes in it), pull out a third protective surface and clean, and if you do not do that, but there's no coffee , The coffee is good, but the milk nozzle may be forgotten, which, incidentally, was also the case with my AEG fully automatic, because it foams only minimally and warms the milk rather, the coffee tastes then milky, what I do not like. In addition, you have to stop always clean the hose, as otherwise constitutes curdled milk and nothing works. The effort is too big for me that the milk is not frothed properly anyway. I'm the foam back on the stove with a Aufschäumtopf. The water tank is very narrow in order to be cleaned properly, you have to fiddle around in it with the washing-up brush, very small hands can get in there to wipe. But the machinery is just rather small, so even a small water tank.
After six months of use, the brewing process broke off with instructions to fill the water tank. The was full. Various experiments have brought nothing. Even unplugged, rebooted, nothing. The next morning I called the customer service, there advised to me that one should even unplug the power cord and so on. I had everything already done. Then we got it, that the problem is obviously the small float in the water tray, which does not move upwards, where he would have to be niggly, unfortunately you can not ran at him, because he is hidden in Plexiglas, so you can not possible eliminate impurities. I should Pril dissolve in water in the tank and see if it clears the float. Also has wasgebracht. After an hour of reciprocating the container with neat Prilwasser the float has moved again. It was sent to me anyway by Krups a new water tank for nothing because it was not clear if it works with the Pril.
I had to buy new filter cartridge and then I found that I had easy access to the 5-cartridge pack on Amazon without reading whether the original cartridges. The were not. The problem was that from this filter cartridges (there is a review from me) expires granules which then blocked the float, and then just went nothing more. I have now bought the original cartridges, which are only single for about currently 10 euros on Amazon. The defect of the machine had therefore to do with the non-original filter, and not with the machine.
