Am the proud owner of this great coffee machine from Saeco. Have you now for about a month and am happier every day. Coffee makes this machine is simply outstanding. Everything is straightforward and easy made. Even Cappucino preparation is super easy thanks to the good cappuccino maker. The strength of the coffee can be adjusted as desired, because the grind is adjusted. Coffee temperature is very warm, as it should be. One can even if the coffee is to keep the cups on the upper rack warm. Crema with the right coffee is excellent. So throughout this machine is unbeatable for the private use of the price and especially the performance ratio in my opinion. A very strong buy recommendation from me
