Those looking for a high end all-rounder, is wrong with this machine. As you can already see the product images, this equipment is limited to the analog bases. There are no useless menus and submenus, and they can not be remotely controlled by mobile phone also. This is a robust, easy to use and minimalistic adjustable coffee no frills underneath fits under nearly every cup. Heavy, stable and robust are the main features. The likes of many home users do not find so compelling, older users were much simpler, more intuitive and faster clear with this machine, as with the useless technically upgraded equivalents. Here you can go wrong in the operation nothing can be turned on only two wheels and the cause in my eyes not really big effects, but everyone can very quickly adjust his favorite strength that you normally just can not remember. Maintenance is simple and enforced on a regular rhythm as the water tank and coffee stores have a manageable size, so that one is forced to regularly in the office, fresh refill and to clean. If what is missing, simply lights a lamp and you should not interpret cryptic error messages. The coffee is hot and good, more is needed to make the postgraduate or postdoctoral happy.
CONCLUSION: For the price it is clear that one can not expect a technical bells and whistles. This machine is the classic, the standing around because of its robustness and ease of use in most laboratory kitchens and offices in the university because they forgive a somewhat Messier and rough handling. The price performance ratio fits and who wants to milk foam just needs a frother next filters (I do not know anyone who manages to produce these steam nozzles clever milk foam, none of these machines, regardless of the price range).
