After the unpacking plug it in, and the water tank rinse. The water tank can be seen only on the opening of the lid. The cover thus acts as a sort of lever to easily remove the water tank again and "dock", a small and fine detail.
The heating time is less than one minute.
The capsules can be inserted only in a Richung. Whatever capsules I have read not deformed (also from other manufacturers), the capsules are and it also does not fill in the small holding tank.
The small collection container is designed of transparent acrylic and illuminated with LEDs, so you can see immediately if the capsule container is full. If the water container is empty, it illuminates striking red.
The water without capsule comes out with a temperature of almost 70 degrees, the espresso has a temperature of about 65 degrees, when it is in the cup. Hot would go well, but that temperature has an advantage: the water heater calcified not so fast, and for the preparation of espresso, it is sufficient. Nevertheless, as a recommendation before the first espresso always let hot water Extra undergo a small cup.
If you lift up the small cup under the spout, fits underneath a normal coffee cup. Taking the cup away, folded the dish down on its own, so there is nothing beside it drops.
There is a small and a double espresso of the quantity ago, these can be obtained from two buttons. The amount is preset at the factory and can be changed very easily.
The dripping is very limited. Another machine was less "tropfig" So there is still potential for improvement.
The frequent criticism here for volume I can not understand. At least my model has the normal running power of a small capsule machine. Here were already some devices and none was quieter.
The machine also nothing stinks of chemicals, not even out of the box. The plastic tank also has no odor, the water also comes without chemical smell out, and this after the first case. A very, very big plus!
Because the durability is criticized: cancel account, possibly register on the manufacturer pages for an extension of the warranty. 2-3 years I think is a reasonable period of operation, even for large fully automatic power after this period often pump the opponent. But the purchase price is to up some low compared to KVA.
Conclusion: here everything is right. 5 of 5 unzerknautschen Nespresso capsules and a recommendation.
