Unfortunately, the machine was already in November 2012 fully to the Spirit. She had become more and more slowly despite correct descaling and then sucked ever at no more water, but hissed like an old steam locomotive. Luckily a warranty claim! The warranty processing of Brown was straightforward and commendable; a dealer near us was quickly found, and he repaired the machine. "Heating" and "valve completely" had to be replaced. Unfortunately, not very long ... - After the machine was running perfectly again
Yesterday - ie in January 2014 - and thus almost to the day 4 months after expiry of the guarantee - gave the machine again the ghost, with exactly the same type of damage.
After this experience, our conclusion is: Never again! - From such a well-known manufacturers, we have a completely different quality expected!
