Looking for a coffee machine I first encountered the previous model of this type, I was then but wg. Optics and Prei for this product and decided regret buying at all. We are in a two-person household regular espresso or latte macchiato drinkers and delight us for several weeks at the wonderful coffee that brews this machine. Initially, some adjustments are necessary in order to obtain the correct amount of coffee and the right taste. Clean this unit can terribly simple and terribly fast ... the brewing unit can be removed easily and flush ... the water filter as well. So we are absolutely satisfied ... chic product!
